2. 1. Continuum modelling of particle flows in high shear granulation

   Author : Per Abrahamsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parameter study; High shear granulation; continuum modelling; resolution dependence; granular flow; compartment model; kinetic theory of granular flow;

   Abstract : High shear granulation is an important process in the pharmaceutical industry. The aim of the process is to produce granules with specific properties, like size and hardness, from powder mixtures. The properties of the granules are determined by the flow field in the mixer. READ MORE

4. 2. Element transport in aquatic ecosystems – Modelling general and element-specific mechanisms

   Author : Lena Konovalenko; Clare Bradshaw; Ulrik Kautsky; Linda Kumblad; Dan Baird; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; radionuclides; elements; concentration ratio; bioaccumulation; biomagnification; fish; modelling; aquatic food web; ecosystem; Cs; Sr; environmental risk assessment; marin ekotoxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology;

   Abstract : Radionuclides are widely used in energy production and medical, military and industrial applications. Thus, understanding the behaviour of radionuclides which have been or may be released into ecosystems is important for human and environmental risk assessment. READ MORE

5. 3. Element transport in marine coastal ecosystems – modelling general and element-specific mechanisms

   Author : Lena Konovalenko; Clare Bradshaw; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Modelling; bioaccumulation; concentration ratio; radionuclides; marine foodweb.; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

   Abstract : Understanding the behaviour of naturally-occurring and anthropogenically-derived radionuclides (isotopes) in the marine environment is important, because there is a need for their effective utilization either as in situ tracers or for industry, medical applications, the planning of waste-disposal facilities, and estimations of human and animal health risks. Radionuclides generally have the same chemical properties as their stable element analogues and thus show similar environmental behaviour and cycling to their stable counterparts. READ MORE

6. 4. Dissecting the Microenvironment of Urothelial Bladder Cancer : Therapy, Modelling and Biomarkers

   Author : Iliana Kyriaki Kerzeli; Sara Mangsbo; Tania de Gruijl; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immuno-oncology; Tumor immunology; MALT1 inhibition; Urothelial bladder cancer; Tumor microenvironment; Immunologi; Immunology; Oncology; Onkologi; Urologi; Urology;

   Abstract : The complexity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) impacts therapy responses and the survival of cancer patients. The scope of this thesis is to study the effects of immune modulation on tumor-infiltrating leukocytes, and to explore the TME of urothelial cancer to provide the research society with new knowledge and potential therapeutic targets.

7. 5. Numerical Approximation of Reaction and Diffusion Systems in Complex Cell Geometry

   Author : Qasim Ali Chaudhry; Michael Hanke; Maya Gueorguieva Neytcheva; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex Cell Geometry; Reaction and Diffusion System; Metabolism in Biological Cells; Homogenization; Compartment Modelling; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

   Abstract : The mathematical modelling of the reaction and diffusion mechanism of lipophilic toxic compounds in the mammalian cell is a challenging task because of its considerable complexity and variation in the architecture of the cell. The heterogeneity of the cell regarding the enzyme distribution participating in the bio-transformation, makes the modelling even more difficult. READ MORE
