2. Degradable copolymers in additive manufacturing: controlled fabrication of pliable scaffolds
Abstract : Inom vävnadsregenerering är produktionen av väldefinieradematriser med en porös arkitektur av nedbrytbara polymerer av stortintresse, dessa kan nu skapas genom additiva tillverkningsprocesser. Vidadditiv tillverkning krävs ett smalt munstycke för att skapa detaljrikastrukturer och detta ställer krav på att de reologiska egenskapernaanpassat. READ MORE

4. Physics of blood flow in arteries and its relation to intra-luminal thrombus and atherosclerosis
Abstract : Vascular pathologies such as Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) and atherosclerosis are complex vascular diseases involving biological, mechanical, and fluid-dynamical factors. This thesis follows a multidisciplinary approach and presents an integrated fluid-chemical theory of ILT growth and analyzes the shear-induced migration of red blood cells (RBCs) in large arteries with respect to hypoxia and its possible role in atherosclerosis.

5. Abdominal aortic aneurysm inception and evolution - A computational model
Abstract : Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by a bulge in the abdominal aorta. AAA development is mostly asymptomatic, but such a bulge may suddenly rupture, which is associated with a high mortality rate. Unfortunately, there is no medication that can prevent AAA from expanding or rupturing. READ MORE
