2. 1. Mechanical properties of flax fibers and their composites

   Author : Edgars Sparnins; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flax fibers; natural fiber composites; mechanical properties; Time dependent behavior; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

   Abstract : Flax fibers, along with a number of other natural fibers, are being considered as an environmentally friendlier alternative of synthetic fibers in fiber-reinforced polymer composites. A common feature of natural fibers is a much higher variability of mechanical properties. READ MORE

4. 2. Integrating bioinformatics and physiology to describe genetic effects in complex polygenic diseases

   Author : Hemang Parikh; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Insulin sensitivity; Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Skeletal muscle; Gene expressionprofiling; TXNIP; Maximal oxygen uptake; Type 1 fibers; NDUFB5; CPT1B; ATP5C1; AHNAK; CAST; Genome-wide association studies.;

   Abstract : Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) results from interaction between genetic and environmental factors. The worldwide prevalence of T2DM is increasing rapidly due to reduction in physical activity, increase in dietary intake, and the aging of the population. READ MORE

5. 3. Microfabrication for Biological Applications. Preparation, Characterization and Biological Evaluation

   Author : Julie Gold; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; asbestos; surface spectroscopy; lithography; microfabrication; fibers; surface modification; biomaterials;

   Abstract : Foreign materials are intentionally placed into patients in the form of medical devices for replacing or repairing damaged portions of the body. Materials also enter the body unintentionally in the form of particulates and fibers, and can then have damaging effects, such as the formation of disease or even cancer. READ MORE

6. 4. Epitaxy of GaAs-based long-wavelength vertical cavity lasers

   Author : Carl Asplund; KTH; []
   Keywords : gainnas; ingaas; quantum wells; movpe; mocvd; vertical cavity laser; bcsel; long-wavelength; epitaxy; xrd; dbr;

   Abstract : Vertical cavity lasers (VCLs) are of great interest aslow-cost, high-performance light sources for fiber-opticcommunication systems. They have a number of advantages overconventional edge-emitting lasers, including low powerconsumption, efficient fiber coupling and wafer scalemanufacturing/testing. READ MORE

7. 5. Freeze-Dried Wheat Gluten-Based Foams

   Author : Thomas Blomfeldt; Mikael Hedenqvist; Delcour Jan; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Foams; Wheat gluten; Glutenin; Gliadin; Renewable; Freeze-drying; Pore structure; Baceterial cellulose; Glycerol; Mechanical properties; Thermal conductivity; Combustion properties;

   Abstract : This thesis presents wheat gluten foams as an alternative to the available commercialfoams. Polymeric foams, like all plastics, are mostly made from petroleum, and this isaffecting the environment negatively with the emission of greenhouse gases and generation oflandfills. READ MORE
