2. 1. Diffusion-Induced Nonlinear Dynamics in Carbon Nanomechanical Resonators

   Author : Christin Edblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mass sensing; graphene; stochastic differential equations; diffusion; carbon nanotubes; resonators; nanoelectromechanical systems; equations of motion; nonlinear dynamics; dissipation; Fokker-Planck equation; noise; nonequilibrium dynamics;

   Abstract : The emergence of nanoelectromechanical systems has enabled the development of sensors capable of detecting mass, charge, force, position, and spin with an unprecedented precision. In particular, the low mass, high resonant frequency, and high quality factor of carbon nanomechanical resonators make them ideal for the creation of a high sensitivity mass sensor. READ MORE

4. 2. Development of a Novel QCM Technique for Protein Adsorption Studies

   Author : Fredrik Höök; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; viscoelastic effects; myoglobin; QCM; hemoglobin; ferritin; dissipation factor; protein adsorption; conformational changes;

   Abstract : The first part of this thesis (Papers I and II) is concentrated on the development of a novel quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique to study protein adsorption. The second part (Papers III-V) is focused on the application of the technique on protein adsorption using well characterized surface-solution-protein systems. READ MORE

5. 3. Influence of Fluid Shear on Primary  Nucleation of Organic Compounds in Solution  Jin Liu  Doctoral Thesis

   Author : Jin Liu; Åke Rasmuson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Agitation; Primary nucleation; Induction time; Fluid shear; Energy dissipation; Mass transfer; Molecular alignment; Cluster coalescence; Butyl paraben; Curcumin; m-Hydroxybenzoic acid; Solid-liquid interfacial energy; Nuclei critical radius.; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : In this work, three experimental systems have been used to study the influence of agitation/ fluid shear on primary nucleation. Three organic compounds have been used with different solvents, i.e. butyl paraben in ethanol solution, curcumin in ethanol solution and m-hydroxybenzoic acid in 1-propanol solution. READ MORE

6. 4. Studies of Glycosaminoglycan Interactions - Surface Immobilization Strategies and Biosensing Applications

   Author : Noomi Altgärde; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; glycosaminoglycans; interaction studies; growth factor; QCM-D; virus glycoprotein; SPR; surface immobilization;

   Abstract : Many important biological functions of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been highlighted in research literature during recent years. GAGs often serve as function-bearing structural elements in the extracellular matrix (ECM), but are also constituents of the cell membrane. GAGs take part in various biological mechanisms, e.g. READ MORE

7. 5. Applications of the Complex Modulation Transfer Function on SEA-systems

   Author : Karl-Ola Lundberg; Teknisk akustik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vacuum technology; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; modulated noise; in-situ; modulation transfer function; loss factor; SEA; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

   Abstract : The SEA coupling and dissipation loss factors are determined in-situ from Complex Modulation Transfer Functions, CMTF:s, based on measured impulse-responses. A quotient of CMTF:s is least-square curve-fitted to a SEA model and the SEA loss factors are determined from the results of the curve-fit. READ MORE
