   Abstract : Tactile perception is considered an important contributor to the overall consumer experience of a product. However, what physical properties that create the specifics of tactile perception, are still not completely understood. READ MORE

4. 7. Structuring plant cell materials using pre-treatments. Effects on texture and carotenoid accessibility

   Author : Evelina Tibäck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PG; degree of methoxylation; texture; carrot; Bostwick consistency index; microstructure; in vitro carotenoid accessibility; PME; tomato; carotenoid content;

   Abstract : A high consumption of fruits and vegetables is considered beneficial and to support good health. To promote higher fruit and vegetable intake, attractive and nutritious fruit- and vegetable-based ready-to-eat products should be available on the market. A key property of an attractive food product is a palatable texture. READ MORE

5. 8. Estimating Human Limb Motion Using Skin Texture and Particle Filtering

   Author : Björn Holmberg; Håkan Lanshammar; Virgil Stokes; Christopher L. Vaughan; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human motion analysis; Skin texture; Monte Carlo estimation; Particle filter; Mutual Information; Simulated Annealing; Marker-free; Rigid body transformation; 2D correlation; Systems engineering; Systemteknik;

   Abstract : Estimating human motion is the topic of this thesis. We are interested in accurately estimating the motion of a human body using only video images capturing the subject in motion. Video images from up to two cameras are considered.The first main topic of the thesis is to investigate a new type of input data. READ MORE

6. 9. Microstructure and wear mechanisms of textured CVD alumina and titanium carbonitride coatings

   Author : Siamak Shoja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Plastic deformation; Texture; TKD; Electron microscopy; Coatings; CVD; TiCN; α-alumina; Wear mechanisms;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to find the reasons behind how the wear performance of hard coatings produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is influenced by their texture, as this is today not fully known. Therefore, differently textured coatings were synthesized, and subsequently analyzed both before and after specially designed machining tests. READ MORE

7. 10. Microstructure and plastic deformation of textured CVD alumina coatings

   Author : Siamak Shoja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; α-Al2O3; Texture; Coatings; TKD; Plastic deformation; Deformation mechanisms; Electron microscopy; CVD;

   Abstract : It is known that the wear performance of α-alumina coatings produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is significantly influenced by the type and degree of texture. However, the main reasons behind this behavior are not fully understood. This thesis contains studies of two related topics for increasing the understanding of α-alumina coatings. READ MORE
