1. Modeling DNA Damage
University dissertation from Stockholm : Institutionen för fysikalisk kemi, oorganisk kemi och strukturkemiAbstract : In this thesis methods of computational chemistry have been used to examine DNA damaging processes initiated by ionizing radiation, free radicals, or Low-Energy Electrons (LEE).The computational chemistry method based on quantum mechanics that has been mainly used here is the Density Functional Theory (DFT).

2. Plasticity and Damage Mechanics for Modeling Concrete Failure
University dissertation from Chalmers University of TechnologyAbstract : Concrete structures exhibit strongly non-linear and complex mechanical behavior. Hence, they are nowadays often analyzed by means of the finite element method, whereby a realistic description of the material behavior is decisive for the validity of the results. READ MORE

4. Oxidative damage and the DNA glycosylase MutYH
University dissertation from Institutionen för flygteknikAbstract : The DNA glycosylase MutYH is highly conserved throughout evolution, and homologs are found in most eukaryotes and prokaryotes examined. MutYH functions as a base excision repair DNA glycosylase that excises adenines misincorporated opposite 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), one of the most stable products of oxidative DNA damage.

5. Ribonucleotide reductase and DNA damage
University dissertation from Umeå : Medicinsk biokemi och biofysikAbstract : A prerequisite for a multicellular organism to survive is the ability to correctly replicate and repair DNA while minimizing the number of heritable mutations. To achieve this, cells need a balanced supply of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs), the precursors for DNA synthesis. READ MORE
