    Abstract : The immature visual system is vulnerable to adverse events in infants born preterm. Both retinopathy of prematurity and periventricular leukomalacia may affect visual function and ocular appearance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Creep, deformation and moisture redistribution during air convective wood drying and conditioning : air convective wood drying and conditioning

    Author : Tom Morén; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träteknik; Wood Technology;

    Abstract : Air convective wood drying is associated with a considerable risk for damage to the timber, especially checking and warping. This thesis contains an analysis of creep and deformation during wood drying related to stress development and susceptibility of checking. Also heat and mass transfer problems in the wood drying process are considered. READ MORE

  5. 3. Calculation of scatter in cone beam CT : Steps towards a virtual tomograph

    Author : Alexandr Malusek; Michael Sandborg; Gudrun Alm Carlsson; Michael Ljungberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Abstract : Scattered photons—shortly scatter—are generated by interaction processes when photon beams interact with matter. In diagnostic radiology, they deteriorate image quality since they add an undesirable signal that lowers the contrast in projection radiography and causes cupping and streak artefacts in computed tomography (CT).
