  2. 1. Pro-environmental travel behavior : The importance of attitudinal factors, habits, and transport policy measures

    Author : Louise Eriksson; Jörgen Garvill; Annika Nordlund; Linda Steg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; value-belief-norm theory; car habit; policy specific beliefs; car use reduction; acceptability; behavioral adaptations; travel demand management measures; transport policy measures; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to study determinants of a readiness for pro-environmental travel behavior in households. Four empirical studies were conducted examining reduction in car use (Study I), acceptability of transport policy measures (Study II and III), and behavioral adaptations in response to travel demand management (TDM) measures (Study IV).

  4. 2. Synthesising colloidal molecules with tunable interactions from soft responsive microgel particles

    Author : Linda Månsson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microgels; polymers; colloids; colloidal synthesis; self-assembly; material scaince; confocal microscopy; light scattering; microgels; polymers; colloids; colloidal synthesis; self-assembly; material science; confocal microscopy; light scattering;

    Abstract : Colloidal self-assembly is an attractive bottom-up approach to new superstructures and materials with new properties. However, the typical spherical shape and isotropic interaction potential limit the repertoire of ordered structures that can be obtained from synthetic colloids. READ MORE

  5. 3. Investigating the effect of extending powder particle size distribution of Ti-6Al-4V produced by powder bed fusion laser beam process : Influence of process parameters on material integrity

    Author : Linda Squillaci; Magnus Neikter; Ru Peng; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Powder Bed Fusion Laser Beam PBF-LB ; Ti-6Al-4V; Microstructure; Particle Size Distribution PSD ; Productivity Enhancement; Pulverbädd additiv tillverkning PBF-LB M ; Ti-6Al-4V; Mikrostruktur; Pulverpartikelstorleksfördelning; Produktivitetsförbättring; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the topic of PBF-LB applied to titanium alloys. Of allalloys, an α + β is chosen, named Ti-6Al-4V. The selection of this particular alloy is driven by its current widespread use in many industrial applications where high strength coupled with low density are both desirable properties. READ MORE

  6. 4. Structural and functional studies of novel viral complement inhibitors

    Author : Linda Mark; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; transplantation; serologi; serology; Kaposi s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus; Immunologi; Immunology; homology modeling; complement inhibitor;

    Abstract : Viruses have developed several strategies to evade the complement system, a part of the immune system. The fourth open reading frame of the human virus Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) encodes a type 1 transmembrane protein. READ MORE

  7. 5. Novel findings on cellular trafficking and targeting for granule storage of neutrophil elastase, a multifunctional effector molecule of innate immunity

    Author : Linda Källquist; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hematopoietic cell; CD63; neutrophil elastase; targeting; trafficking; intracellular sorting; neutrophil; azurophil granule;

    Abstract : Neutrophil elastase (NE) has important roles in innate immunity, killing pathogens and controlling the immune response; but how NE is targeted to developing granules is not understood. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to investigate the sorting of NE. READ MORE
