1. Structural sound transmission and attenuation in lightweight structures
Abstract : Everyone wants a peaceful and quiet home, but in noisy cities it is a challenge to create such homes. New building techniques are mostly introduced for other purposes than noise control -- stability, economy, heat transfer and so on. READ MORE

2. Structural-acoustic vibrations in wooden assemblies : Experimental modal analysis and finite element modelling
Abstract : This doctoral thesis concerns flanking transmission in light weight, wooden multi-storey buildings within the low frequency, primarily 20-120 Hz. The overall aim is to investigate how the finite element method can contribute in the design phase to evaluate different junctions regarding flanking transmission. READ MORE

3. Vibroacoustic performance of wooden buildings : Prediction and Perception
Abstract : When the Swedish building regulations in 1994 allowed wooden multi-storey buildings to be built, this type of lightweight construction became popular due to its low cost and ease of construction, as well as wood being a plentiful resource in Sweden. However, complaints amid inhabitants are often reported due to nuisances caused by disturbing vibrations and noise propagating in the building. READ MORE

4. Phylogenetic and phenotypic properties of HIV-1 variants of different subtypes, in mother to child transmission
Abstract : Transmission from mother to child is the most common way that children contract HIV-1 infection in developing countries; transmission through this route is prevented in most developed countries by antiretroviral treatment, elective Caesarean section and absence of breast-feeding. However, these measures are not fully available in developing countries. READ MORE

5. Regulation of mitochondrial transcription and mtDNA copy number in mammals
Abstract : Functional mitochondria are essential for wellbeing of the cell and the whole organism. Gene expression from the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) is indispensable for oxidative phosphorylation, but also for the replication of mtDNA, as the replication primers are processed from mtDNA transcripts.
