  2. 1. Leptin and the Intersection of Cardiovascular Disease, Metabolism, and Adipose Tissue

    Author : Camilla Vavruch; Fredrik Nyström; Carl Johan Östgren; Johan Ärnlöv; Kristina Boström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Leptin; Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Adipose tissue; Cardiovascular disease; Metabolism; Cardiovascular risk factors;

    Abstract : According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels, and it is the leading cause of death worldwide. The risk factors for CVD are divided into two major classes: non-modifiable (age, gender, family history) and modifiable (including tobacco use, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, abdominal obesity, high cholesterol, dyslipidemia, and stress).

  5. 3. Deriving coarse grained descriptions of particle based simulations

    Author : Johan Nyström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coarse graining; Mori-Zwanzig projection; Dissipative particle dynamics;

    Abstract : In the field of molecular simulations, the long standing aim has been to study mechanisms that cannot easily be observed in experiments or understood in terms of more abstract models. Fully detailed molecular dynamics simulations can be extremely successful in many areas, but when applied to mesoscopic systems with a large number of molecules, the time and length scales on which important phenomena take place are often far beyond what is feasible to simulate with modern computers.

  6. 4. Deriving effective forces for mesoscopic particle simulations

    Author : Johan Nyström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coarse graining; Boids; Force covariance; Mori-Zwanzig projection; Dissipative particle dynamics; Force matching; Flocking.;

    Abstract : In the field of molecular simulations, the long-standing aim has been to study mechanisms that cannot easily be observed in experiments or understood in terms of more abstract models. This is hard for systems of mesoscopic size (proteins, membranes etc. READ MORE

  7. 5. Partnering : definition, theory and evaluation

    Author : Johan Nyström; Hans Lind; Will Hughes; KTH; []
    Keywords : SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The concept of partnering in the construction industry stands for a collaborative way of working. Examples of partnering projects can be found on every continent. READ MORE
