  2. 1. Lipid-based liquid crystals as drug delivery vehicles for antimicrobial peptides

    Author : Lukas Boge; Lovisa Ringstad; Martin Andersson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; infection; phase behavior; antimicrobial effect; Liquid crystals; hexosome; antimicrobial resistance; AMP; antimicrobial peptide; pulmonary delivery; topical delivery; glycerol monooleate; bacterial membrane; cubosome; liquid crystalline nanoparticles; membrane interaction; proteolysis;

    Abstract : The development of antimicrobial resistance is a great challenge within health sectors worldwide. Thus, demand for new, efficient treatments is urgent in order to treat various bacterial infections. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a group of antibiotics that have gained more and more attraction in the past decade. READ MORE

  4. 2. On Sustainability of Biomass for Energy and the Governance Thereof

    Author : Oskar Englund; Virginia Dale; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SOCIAL SCIENCES; sustainability; land use; spatial modelling; biomass production; certification; environmental legislation; biomass resources; ecosystem services; Bioenergy; GIS; biodiversity; governance;

    Abstract : Due to concerns about climate change, energy security, and resource scarcity, non- renewable resources are increasingly being displaced by biomass. As with most human activities, the production of biobased products can be associated with negative impacts. Primarily, this relates to the biomass supply systems, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Process View of Business Model Innovation

    Author : Sara Fallahi; Stefan Haefliger; Joakim Björkdahl; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cognitive search; ambidexterity; process; experiential learning; innovation; resource based view; business model; problem; business model; innovation; process; cognitive search; experiential learning; ambidexterity; resource based view; ;

    Abstract : In an era of globalization, cross-fertilization of technologies and industries, and changing markets, firms are introducing new ways of creating or capturing value through Business Model Innovations (BMI). In recent years, BMI has become one of the priorities of practitioners, and has attracted the interest of scholars since product or process innovations on their own are perceived insufficient in the current internet era when other sources of competitive advantage are being needed.

  6. 4. Influence of combined thermal and mechanical loadings on pearlitic steel microstructure in railway wheels and rails

    Author : Dimitrios Nikas; Nikas Dimitrios; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wheel steels; EBSD; Spheroidisation; Low cycle fatigue LCF ; Rail steels; TEM; Multiaxial fatigue; Hardness; Pearlite; Thermal effects; Materials Science; Materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : One of the most important aspects in railway operation is the interaction between rail and wheel. The contact patch between these two components is around the size of a small coin, and since high loads act on this small area, stresses will give rise to wear and damage in both components.

  7. 5. The Significance of Things: Affective User-Artefact relations

    Author : Viktor Hjort af Ornäs; Viktor Hiort af Ornäs; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; User experience; User-centred design; Significant consequences; Significant use; Significant things; User-centred desig; Technology; Teknik; User Centred Product Design; Användarcentrerad produktdesign;

    Abstract : Products help people act, but also thrill, excite, and elicit fear, joy and anger. Artefacts are a natural part of people’s everyday lives, sometimes associated with values, dreams and aspirations. While traditional user-centred approaches have focused on efficiency and effectiveness of use, injury prevention etc. READ MORE
