  2. 1. Responsible Conduct in Dual Use Research : Towards an Ethic of Deliberation in the Life Sciences

    Author : Frida Kuhlau; Anna T Höglund; Stefan Eriksson; Kathinka Evers; Alexander Kelle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioethics; biological warfare; biological weapons; biosecurity; communicative ethics; deliberative ethics; dual use; ethical competence; life science research; precautionary principle; responsible conduct; Bioetik; Bioethics;

    Abstract : Life scientists have increasingly been asked to incorporate a dual use responsibility in their research conduct. In this thesis, different aspects of what constitutes a reasonable responsibility in terms of avoiding harmful misuse of research for biological weapon purposes have been explored. READ MORE

  4. 2. Multidimensional Ultrasonic Standing Wave Manipulation in Microfluidic Chips

    Author : Otto Manneberg; Hans M. Hertz; Martin Wiklund; Jürg Dual; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biological physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Abstract : The use of ultrasonic standing waves for contactless manipulation of microparticles in microfluidic systems is a field with potential to become a new standard tool in lab-on-chip systems. Compared to other contactless manipulation methods ultrasonic standing wave manipulation shows promises of gentle cell handling, low cost, and precise temperature control. READ MORE

  5. 3. Alcohol Flexible Dual-Fuel Direct Injection Engine

    Author : Michael Saccullo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fuel spray; Ethanol; Dual-fuel; Heavy duty engine; Diffusion combustion; Dual-direct injection; E85; Methanol;

    Abstract : Laws concerning emissions from HD internal combustion engines are becoming increasingly stringent in terms of local emissions and emissions concerning global warming such as lowering tailpipe CO2. New engine technologies are needed to satisfy these new requirements and to reduce fossil fuel dependency and increase renewable fuels in the transportation sector. READ MORE

  6. 4. Use of Bed Materials in Dual Fluidized Bed (DFB) Systems

    Author : Jelena Maric; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bed material; Chemical looping reforming; Dual Fluidized Bed;

    Abstract : Dual Fluidized Bed (DFB) gasification is one alternative for the production of biofuels. In a DFB gasification process, the bed material plays a crucial role. Primary role of the bed material is to provide the heat needed for the gasification reaction. READ MORE

  7. 5. Snus use and mortality : associations, potential mechanisms, and socioeconomic aspects

    Author : Marja Lisa Byhamre; Patrik Wennberg; Marie Eriksson; Jan-Håkan Jansson; Magnus Lundbäck; Umeå universitet; []
