  1. 1. Evaluating the utilisation of industrial excess heat from an energy systems perspective

    Author : Igor Cruz; Magnus Wallén; Mats Söderström; Maria Johansson; Danica Djuric Ilic; Johanna Mossberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial excess heat; Waste heat; Heat recovery; Greenhouse gas emissions;

    Abstract : Sweden aims to achieve climate neutrality by 2045. The need to immediately reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to achieve climate targets affects industry directly. The pulp and paper sector is responsible for more than 50% of industrial energy use in Sweden. READ MORE

  2. 2. Microfluidics for High-Pressure Inertial Focusing : Focusing, Separation and Concentration of Micro and Sub-micron Particles

    Author : Javier Cruz; Klas Hjort; Aman Russom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microsystems; Microfluidics; Inertial Focusing; Particle Manipulation; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot mikrosystemteknik; Engineering Science with specialization in Microsystems Technology;

    Abstract : The birth of microsystems set the ground for technologies never imagined before, for it is not only the small size what characterizes the miniaturized systems, but unique phenomena arise in the micro scale. This thesis relates to one such unique phenomenon, inertial focusing, a phenomenon that occurs in microfluidic systems if very special conditions are met and that allows for fine manipulation of particles in fluid samples.

  3. 3. Gender-related small artery function : implications for estrogenic compounds

    Author : Maria-Natalia Cruz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Vascular effects of estrogens have been shown to be mediated by estrogen receptor (ER)α. The discovery of ERβ, which shares many similarities with ERα, brought about a reevaluation of the role of the ER subtypes (ERs) in the vasculature. READ MORE

  4. 4. Paleomagnetic studies of Jurassic to Tertiary rocks in Jamaica and Cuba

    Author : Carlos Cruz Ferrán; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tillämpad geofysik; Applied Geophysics;

    Abstract : Paleomagnetic studies have been performed on Jurassic to Tertiary rocks in Cuba and Jamaica. Samples of predominantly volcanic and sedimentary rocks were collected at 73 sites and the study included 792 samples. READ MORE

  5. 5. Robust analysis of uncertainty in scientific assessments

    Author : Ivette Raices Cruz; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; expert knowledge; robust Bayesian analysis; scientific assessments; subjective probability; uncertainty analysis;

    Abstract : Uncertainty refers to any limitation in knowledge. Identifying and characterizing uncertainty in conclusions is important to ensure transparency and avoid over or under confidence in scientific assessments. Quantitative expressions of uncertainty are less ambiguous compared to uncertainty expressed qualitatively, or not at all. READ MORE
