2. 1. Turbulence Descriptors in Arterial Flows : Patient-Specific Computational Hemodynamics

   Author : Magnus Andersson; Matts Karlsson; Jonas Lantz; Tino Ebbers; Kristian Valen-Sendstad; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : At this very moment, there are literally millions of people who suffer from various types of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), many of whom will experience reduced quality of life or premature lift expectancy. The detailed underlying pathogenic processes behind many of these disorders are not well understood, but were abnormal dynamics of the blood flow (hemodynamics) are believed to play an important role, especially atypical flow-mediated frictional forces on the intraluminal wall (i.

4. 2. Computational methods for analyzing dioxin-like compounds and identifying potential aryl hydrocarbon receptor ligands : multivariate studies based on human and rodent in vitro data

   Author : Malin Larsson; Patrik Andersson; Anna Linusson; Mats Tysklind; Scott Boyer; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dioxin-like compounds; multivariate analysis; toxic equivalency factor; quantitative structure-activity relationship; descriptors; virtual screening; in vitro; species variation; aryl hydrocarbon receptor;

   Abstract : Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are omnipresent and persistent environmental pollutants. In particular, 29 congeners are of special concern, and these are usually referred to as dioxin-like compounds (DLCs). READ MORE

5. 3. Towards Classification and Functional Description of Enzymes: A case study of feruloyl esterases

   Author : Gupta Udatha; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; descriptors; enzyme immobilization; catalytic triad; pharmacophore; enzyme promiscuity; functional classification; molecular docking; feruloyl esterases; protein evolution; structure-function relationship;

   Abstract : The prediction of enzyme functionality from sequence or structure data remains a challenging task that can be best addressed by studying the structure-function relationships determined from previously available information. This thesis work was focused on developing a reliable classification and functional description for the feruloyl esterase (FAE) enzyme family, whose members’ possess both structural and catalytic promiscuity.

6. 4. Efficient Image Retrieval with Statistical Color Descriptors

   Author : Linh Viet Tran; Reiner Lenz; Björn Kruse; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; color properties; images; statistical; content-based image retrieval CBIR ; non-parametric density estimators; image database; Kernel; Gram-Schmidt; geometry-based; Information technology; Informationsteknologi;

   Abstract : Color has been widely used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) applications. In such applications the color properties of an image are usually characterized by the probability distribution of the colors in the image. READ MORE

7. 5. Microbial communities : descriptors of environmental change in marine ecosystems

   Author : Li Zhao; Agneta Andersson; Xiao-Ru Wang; Alexander Eiler; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : In northern marginal seas, like the northern Baltic Sea, climate change will lead to many alterations, for example increased inflows of nutrients and dissolved organic matter (DOM). Nutrients and DOM are fundamental drivers shaping marine microbial communities, including both bacterial and phytoplankton populations. READ MORE
