  3. 3. Experiments with sand slurries pumped in 0.1 to 0.5 m diameter pipeline loops

    Author : Lee Whitlock; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vattenteknik; Water Resources Engineering;

    Abstract : The overall objective was to investigate the effectiveness of using high solids concentrations when transporting sand slurries in pipelines with centrifugal pumps. In detail, the aims are to present large-scale experimental pipe friction loss results and how head, efficiency and net suction head performance are influenced by the solid particles in large pumps and to compare friction loss data with a design model.

  4. 4. On CNS injury and olfactory ensheathing cell engraftment strategies

    Author : I-Hui Lee; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The intrinsic regenerative capacity of the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) is limited because of lack of nerve-growth stimulatory factors and presence of an insurmountable molecular environment for injured axons. This thesis aims to study neural regeneration following adult CNS injury, using rodent models of spinal cord injury, dorsal root avulsion, and Parkinson s disease. READ MORE
