16. Microstructure analysis of wear and fatigue in austempered high-Si steels
Abstract : Research on austempering of high-Si steels has increased over the last years due to their attractive combination of strength and toughness. The presence of over 1.5% of silicon prevents the precipitation of cementite during austempering and the resulting microstructure consists of bainitic ferrite and retained austenite. READ MORE

17. Micro-scale studies of wear
Abstract : The development of materials for tribological components is constantly striving to more sophisticated properties, specialised for specific applications. This progress requires and depends to a large extent on a parallel development of the theoretical knowledge of wear and on development of the experimental tools for investigating wear in the research lab as well as in the field.

18. High Temperature Wear Processes
Abstract : Moving machine assemblies are increasingly exposed to extreme operating conditions involving high temperatures owing to demands on higher power densities, high performance/efficiency and extreme environments. The changes in surface and near surface properties of contacting surfaces caused by exposure to high temperature and deformation govern the occurrence of friction, wear and material transfer of the tribological system.

19. In Search of Scientific Methods for Conservation of Historic Silk Costumes
Abstract : The general aim of this dissertation is to lay ground for the evaluation of conservation methods for historic costumes. The Royal Armoury, Stockholm has a large number of 17th century men’s garments, many of them made of silk and in need of conservation. READ MORE

20. Regulatory proteins and the regulation of immune response in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract : Insect antibacterial peptides are regulated at the transcriptional level. The otherwise silent antibacterial Cecropin genes are strongly induced upon bacterial challenge. READ MORE
