  2. 1. Modelling Aspects in Forming and Welding of Nickel-Base Superalloys

    Author : Lluís Pérez Caro; Mats Oldenburg; Eva-Lis Odenberger; Juan Carlos Cante Teran; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alloy 718; Haynes 282; cold forming; hot forming; material characterization; GISSMO; welding; heat treatment; manufacturing chain; springback; shape distortions; dynamic strain aging; DSA; microstructure; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : The reduction of fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are currently a key factor for the aviation industry because of major concerns about climate change and more restrictive environmental laws. One way to reduce both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions is by significantly decreasing the weight of vehicles while increasing the efficiency of the engine. READ MORE

  4. 2. Public Private Business Models for Defence Acquisition - A Multiple Case Study of Defence Acquisition Projects in the UK

    Author : Thomas Ekström; Andreas Norrman; Peter Tatham; Teknisk logistik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Defence transformation; military logistics; supply chain; support chain; defence acquisition; Business Model; Public Private Participation; Cooperation and Partnership; Value-for-Money; performance; risk; multiple case study; misalignment; transformation av försvaret; militär logistik; försörjnings- och underhållskedja; försvarsanskaffning; affärsmodell; offentlig privat samverkan; valuta för pengarna; prestation; multipel fallstudie; inkonsekvens; defence transformation;

    Abstract : Since the ending of the Cold War, the defence sector, particularly the areas of military logistics and defence acquisition, has been undergoing a comprehensive transformation. There are several factors that explain this transformation: changes in defence and security policies for nations and organisations; reductions in defence expenditure; participation in Peace Support Operations; Lessons Learned from these operations, especially in the area of logistics; revolutionary development in the area of Information and Communication Technology; emergence of novel Commercial Best Practises in the areas of business and business logistics; and changes in the legislation regarding the conduct of public procurement in Europe.

  5. 3. The pathophysiology of respiratory chain dysfunction

    Author : José Pablo Silva; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Mitochondrial disease; mitochondrial DNA mtDNA ; mitochondrial transcription factor A Tfam ; Cre-loxP; conditional knockout; reactive oxygen species ROS ; superoxide; uncoupling protein UCP ; mitochondrial bioenergeties; energy expenditure;

    Abstract : Mutations of mitochondrial DNA cause a variety of clinical syndromes. It is unclear whether impaired oxidative phosphorylation on its own is the main cause of pathology or whether other factors such as secondary metabolic alterations, enhanced formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induction of apoptosis also may contribute to the clinical phenotype.

  6. 4. Respiratory NAD(P)H dehydrogenases of plants - Gene identity and expression in response to light and cold

    Author : Staffan Svensson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; morfologi; phytogeography; chemotaxonomy. Physiology of nonvascular plants; Systematisk botanik; taxonomi; morphology; taxonomy; Systematic botany; Växtgenetik; Plant genetics; plant mitochondria; NADH dehydrogenases; light dependence; mRNA quantification; leaf respiration; cold treatment; kemotaxonomi. Växters fysiologi inte kärlväxter .;

    Abstract : The respiratory chain of plants contains class 2 NAD(P)H dehydrogenases, not present in animals. The functional roles of these enzymes have been elusive for a long time. Two cDNAs, homologous to class 2 NADH dehydrogenase genes of yeast and E. coli, were isolated from potato leaves. READ MORE

  7. 5. Gene description, activity quantification and physiological responses of mitochondrial alternative NAD(P)H dehydrogenases

    Author : Fredrik Johansson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phytogeography; chemotaxonomy. Physiology of nonvascular plants; Systematisk botanik; taxonomi; morfologi; kemotaxonomi. Växters fysiologi inte kärlväxter .; morphology; taxonomy; Systematic botany; plant mitochondria; NAD P H dehydrogenases; cold treatment; complex I; light dependence; antimycin a; alamethicin;

    Abstract : In addition to proton-pumping complex I, the plant respiratory chain contains type II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases. These extra enzymes do not pump protons and consequently do not contribute to the electrochemical proton gradient. READ MORE
