1. Glacial Isostatic Adjustment : Inferences on properties and processes in the upper mantle from 3D dynamical modeling
Abstract : Observations of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) offers a powerful window into the properties of the Earth's interior. Combined with dynamical modeling of the GIA process we can use the observations to infer properties such as the elastic structure of the lithosphere, the rheology of the mantle and changes in the stress conditions in the Earth.

2. Analysis of adhesively bonded joints : an asymptotic approach
Abstract : Simulations using the Finite Element Method (FEM) play an increasingly important role in the design process of joints and fasteners in the aerospace industry. In order to utilize the potential of using adhesive bonding, there is an increasing need for effective and accurate computational methods. READ MORE

4. Islet Xenotransplantation : An Experimental Study of Barriers to Clinical Transplantation
Abstract : In the field of transplantation, the increasing deficit of human donors have lead to an interest in animals as an alternative source of organs and tissues. Different in vitro systems and rodent models of xenotransplantation were used to examine the most significant barriers that have to be overcome, before isolated islets of Langerhans from pigs can be used as a cure for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in humans.

5. Ions in cold electrostatic storage devices
Abstract : We have constructed a compact purely electrostatic ion-beam trap, ConeTrap, which we have mounted inside a double-walled vacuum chamber. In the inner vacuum chamber, we can obtain ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions and reach thermal equilibrium at well controlled temperatures down to 10 K. READ MORE
