  1. 1. Time Simulation of the Behaviour of Damaged Ships in Waves

    Author : Martin Schreuder; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waves; SIMCAP; seakeeping; ship; damage; stability; dynamics;

    Abstract : The cause of event and ability for ship survival after damage are in many cases poorly described by pure static considerations. The dynamic properties of the ship and environment will be significant in the assessment of the damage scenario. Physical theories describing these properties have been developed since many decades.

  2. 2. On Stability and Surge in Turbocharger Compressors

    Author : Bertrand Kerres; Andreas Cronhjort; Mihai Mihaescu; Jörg Seume; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbocharger; Radial Compressor; Stability; Surge; Hurst exponent; Fractals; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Turbochargers are used on many automotive internal combustion engines to increase power density. The broad operating range of the engine also requires a wide range of the turbocharger compressor. At low mass flows, however, turbo compressor operation becomes unstable and eventually enters surge.

  3. 3. Replication Fork Stability in Mammalian Cells

    Author : Ingegerd Elvers; Thomas Helleday; Jan H. J. Hoeijmakers; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : replication fork progression; replication fork stability; re-priming; DNA damage signalling; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : Maintaining replication fork integrity is vital to preserve genomic stability and avoid cancer. Physical DNA damage and altered nucleotide or protein pools represent replication obstacles, generating replicative stress. Numerous cellular responses have evolved to ensure faithful DNA replication despite such challenges. READ MORE

  4. 4. Biomarkers for DNA damage in human biomonitoring

    Author : Natalia Kotova; Dag Jenssen; Jan Grawé; Lilianne Abramsson-Zetterberg; Mats Ljungman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : biomonitoring; biomarkers; DNA damage; cancer; diet; UV-light; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : Genomic DNA in humans is constantly exposed to different kinds of damage. Therefore, it is desirable to implement methods for detecting and measuring of inflicted body burden. Human biomonitoring (HBM) can here be a useful tool as a link between environmental exposure and disease outcome. READ MORE

  5. 5. Evolving the Methodology for Detection of Primary DNA Damage : Development, adaptation and assessment of the single cell gel electrophoresis (comet) assay

    Author : Erik Bivehed; Björn Hellman; Hanna Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Comet assay; DNA damage; DNA strand breaks; Flash-comet; Genotoxicity; In vitro; Single cell gel electrophoresis; Polymerase assisted DNA damage assay PADDA ; TK6 cells; UCDAS; U937 cells; Toxikologi; Toxicology; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is one of the most important molecules in nature. It is the fundamental carrier of evolutionary information and constitutes the genetic blueprint of all living organisms. Being the sole source of information, it is vital for the cell to transmit the correct genetic information from generation to generation. READ MORE
