  2. 1. Textile architecture informed by wind

    Author : Erica Hörteborn; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; HUMANIORA; HUMANIORA; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANITIES; HUMANITIES; Textiles; Research by design; Textile architecture; Kinetic architecture; Lightweight structures; Wind; Geometric expression; Knitted textiles;

    Abstract : Textiles in architecture is a field of great potential, which are worth to explore further. This thesis aims to show that the flexibility of the textile material could be better included in the architectural design, allowing it to adapt to forces, such as the wind, and viewing motion as a positive design feature.

  4. 2. Laser on kinetic operator

    Author : Håkan Fredriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industriell elektronik; Industrial Electronics;

    Abstract : This thesis highlights a variety of aspects within the field of mobile robots. The hinge is system architecture for mobile robots. For a mobile robot to be put into operation all necessary systems have to be functioning and control mechanisms have to be established. The robot may be set to operate autonomously as well as remotely controlled. READ MORE

  5. 3. Structural and Functional Studies of Chagasin, a Parasite Protease Inhibitor

    Author : Anna Ljunggren; Avdelningen för klinisk kemi och farmakologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The cysteine proteases are enzymes found in every kingdom of life. Clan CA is the largest of the cysteine protease clans, with members all displaying a Cys/His/Asn(Asp) catalytic triad responsible for hydrolysing the peptide bond within the substrate. READ MORE

  6. 4. Studies on genetic and epigenetic regulation of gene expression dynamics

    Author : Leonard Hartmanis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The information required to build an organism is contained in its genome and the first biochemical process that activates the genetic information stored in DNA is transcription. Cell type specific gene expression shapes cellular functional diversity and dysregulation of transcription is a central tenet of human disease. READ MORE

  7. 5. Structural Transitions in Helical Peptides : The Influence of Water – Implications for Molecular Recognition and Protein Folding

    Author : Martin Lignell; Hans-Christian Becker; Kaare Teilum; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein dynamics; protein folding; molten globule; time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy; CD spectroscopy; molecular recognition; structure-function paradigm; Chemical physics; Kemisk fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : Fluctuations in protein structure are vital to function. This contrasts the dominating structure-function paradigm, which connects the well-defined three-dimensional protein structure to its function. However, catalysis is observed in disordered enzymes, which lack a defined structure. READ MORE
