  2. 6. Systems Engineering for Computing Systems at Accelerator based Research Facilities

    Author : Thilo Friedrich; Martin Törngren; Gerrit Muller; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Systems Engineering; control system; computing system; particle accelerator; research facility; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Large research facilities are major research enablers for expanding fields in various natural sciences. Traditionally built for physics and astronomy, nowadays fields like life sciences, medicine, molecular sciences and material sciences have become the driving forces, especially for particle accelerator based research facilities.

  4. 7. Mathematical Modelling of Dose Planning in High Dose-Rate Brachytherapy

    Author : Björn Morén; Torbjörn Larsson; Åsa Carlsson Tedgren; Sebastiaan Breedveld; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Cancer is a widespread type of diseases that each year affects millions of people. It is mainly treated by chemotherapy, surgery or radiation therapy, or a combination of them. One modality of radiation therapy is high dose-rate brachytherapy, used in treatment of for example prostate cancer and gynecologic cancer. READ MORE

  5. 8. Studies of carbon nanomaterials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes

    Author : Agnieszka Iwasiewicz-Wabnig; Bertil Sundqvist; Eleanor E.B. Campbell; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fullerenes; carbon nanotubes; fullerene polymers; intercalation compounds; high pressure; Raman spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction; atomic force microscopy; phase transitions; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : Materials based on fullerenes and carbon nanotubes are very much different from most “traditional” materials, primarily because they are built from nanosized molecules with highly symmetry-dependent properties. Being the subject of a very active research field over the last twenty years, carbon nanostructures proved to be indeed extraordinary. READ MORE

  6. 9. Techniques for Fast and High-Quality 3D Reconstruction of General Scenes

    Author : Sverker Rasmuson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; voxels; 3D reconstruction; computer vision; computer graphics; volumetric video;

    Abstract : This thesis is a collection of techniques used for 3D reconstruction; the creation of 3D models from real world objects or scenes. Given the increase in accuracy, robustness and speed of modern methods and algorithms, new and exciting applications of this technology is constantly appearing. READ MORE

  7. 10. Tools for providing terminology services in health care computing

    Author : Mats Carlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Terminology and terminology services are increasingly important in building medical informatics applications like Computerbased Patient Record systems (CPR). Many classifications, nomenclatures and terminology systems have been constructed to this end i. a. ICD, MeSH and SNOMED. READ MORE
