    Abstract : People suffering from certain types of arrhythmia may benefit from the implantation of a cardiac pacemaker. Pacemakers artificially stimulate the heart by applying short electrical pulses to the cardiac tissue to restore and maintain a steady heart rhythm. By adjusting the pulse delivery rate the heart is stimulated to beat at desired pace. READ MORE

  4. 2. Reconfigurable Impedance Matching Networks for Radio Receivers

    Author : Peter Sjöblom; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical engineering; Telekommunikationsteknik; Telecommunication engineering; Elektronik; Electronics; reconfigurable matching; switched capacitor; antenna tuning unit; impedance tuning unit; High frequency technology; Elektroteknik; microwaves; Högfrekvensteknik; mikrovågor;

    Abstract : Mobile phones become smaller but include more advanced functions for every new generation. This paradox is possible since reduced transistor size and increased integration of digital building blocks free space for new functions. READ MORE

  5. 3. Experimental Investigation of the Acoustic Properties of Perforate using Acoustic Three-Ports

    Author : Shail A. Shah; Susann Boij; Hans Bodén; Wim De Roeck; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Duct Acoustics; Acoustical Three-port; Perforated plate; Transfer Impedance; Scattering Matrix; Grazing Flow; High-level Excitation; Non-linear effects; Flow-Acoustic Interaction; Rectangular T-Junction; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis discusses the aero-acoustic characterisation of a perforate sample using a three-port technique. A rectangular T-junction with a flush mounted perforated sample at the intersection form the acoustical three-port. READ MORE

  6. 4. Innovative noise control in ducts

    Author : Maaz Farooqui; Mats Åbom; Hans Bodén; Tamer Elnady; Jeong-Guon Ih; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Locally resonant materials; slow sound; acoustic impedance; metallic foam; low frequency noise; mufflers; lined ducts; grazing flow; flow duct; impedance eduction.; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : The objective of this doctoral thesis is to study three different innovative noise control techniques in ducts namely: acoustic metamaterials, porous absorbers and microperforates. There has been a lot of research done on all these three topics in the context of duct acoustics. READ MORE

  7. 5. Skin hydration - How water and osmolytes influence biophysical properties of stratum corneum

    Author : Sebastian Björklund; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stratum corneum; diffusive transport; permeability; flow-through cell; Franz cell; transdermal drug delivery; water activity; vapor pressure; osmotic gradient; relative humidity; ceramide; free fatty acid; cholesterol; keratin filaments; natural moisturizing factor NMF ; urea; glycerol; molecular mobility; 13C natural-abundance solid-state NMR; polarization transfer; isothermal calorimetry; impedance spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction;

    Abstract : The outermost layer of skin (i.e., the stratum corneum, SC) is the interface that separates the water-rich inside of the body from the relatively dry external environment. SC forms an effective permeability barrier, which has to be overcome in transdermal drug delivery. READ MORE
