  2. 1. Highly-Efficient Energy Harvesting Interfaces for Implantable Biosensors

    Author : Janko Katic; Ana Rusu; Saul Rodriguez; Gabriel Rincón-Mora; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy harvesting interface; thermoelectric generator; glucose biofuel cell; power management; dc-dc converter; boost converter; zero-current switching; zero-voltage switching; implantable biosensor; Energiskördsgränssnitt; termoelektrisk generator; glukosbiobränslecell; energihantering; DC-DC-omvandlare; boost-omvandlare; inplanterbar biosensor; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Energy harvesting is identified as an alternative solution for powering implantable biosensors. It can potentially enable the development of self-powered implants if the harvested energy is properly handled. This development implies that batteries, which impose many limitations, are replaced by miniature harvesting devices. READ MORE

  4. 2. Prime-boost immunization strategies against HIV-1

    Author : Andreas Bråve; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Since the start of the global HIV epidemic in 1981, more than twentyfive million people have succumbed to AIDS-related diseases. The epidemic is most severe in Sub-Saharan Africa, where twentyfive million people are currently infected and more than two million died during 2006. READ MORE

  5. 3. Synchronous Voltage Reversal Control of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor

    Author : Lennart Ängquist; KTH; []
    Keywords : ThyristorControlled Series Capacitor; TCSC; FACTS; reactive power compensation; boost control; phasor estimation; Quantitative Feedback Theory; subsynchronous resonance; SSR;

    Abstract : Series compensation of transmission lines is an effectiveand cheap method of improving the power transmission systemperformance. Series capacitors virtually reduces the length ofthe line making it easier to keep all parts of the power systemrunning in synchronism and to maintain a constant voltage levelthroughout the system.
