  2. 16. Structure and Mechanical Behaviour of Wood-Fibre Composites

    Author : Thomas Joffre; E. Kristofer Gamstedt; Stéphane Avril; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Wood fibres have several advantages compared to man-made synthetic fibres: they have high specific stiffness, are renewable, relatively inexpensive, available in industrial quantities and biodegradable. However, to increase and diversify their utilisation, it is necessary to increase the understanding on what controls their mechanical properties. READ MORE

  4. 17. Foam-formed Fiber Networks: Manufacturing, Characterization, and Numerical Modeling : With a Note on the Orientation Behavior of Rod-like Particles in Newtonian Fluids

    Author : Majid Alimadadi; Per Gradin; Pär Jonsén; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 3D fiber network structure; foam forming; numerical modeling; compression simulation; orientation; wall-bounded flow; CFD; Jeffery orbits; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : Fiber networks are ubiquitous and are seen in both industrial materials (paper and nonwovens) and biological materials (plant cells and animal tissues). Nature intricately manipulates these network structures by varying their density, aggregation, and fiber orientation to create a variety of functionalities. READ MORE

  5. 18. Cariological Studies on Endodontically Treated Teeth

    Author : Khalid Merdad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Caries risk; Caries susceptibility; Cariogram; Endodontic treatment; Jönköping; Sweden; Micro-CT; Recurrent caries; Saudi Arabia;

    Abstract : Caries might jeopardize the long-term successful outcome of endodontic therapy. Therefore, it is of an interest for the endodontist to evaluate caries susceptibility of root-filled teeth (RFT). In the present thesis, several studies were conducted to explore this relationship.

  6. 19. Magnetic resonance imaging and advanced imaging assessment of the growth plate in the adolescent and young adult

    Author : Ola Kvist; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The growth plate is a cartilaginous structure located between the metaphysis and epiphysis in long bones. It is the centre for longitudinal growth. Longitudinal growth has a biphasic pattern with a peak during foetal and early postnatal life and another peak during puberty. READ MORE

  7. 20. Improved titanium and steel implants : Studies on bisphosphonate, strontium and surface treatments

    Author : Paula Linderbäck; Pentti Tengvall; Per Aspenberg; Håkan Engqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Purpose: The general aim of this thesis was to increase the understanding of biomaterial surface modifications and local delivery of osteoporosis drugs for bone integration. We therefore (i) characterised and investigated model surface coatings for controlled drug delivery in a rat tibia screw model (ii) elucidated the effect of surface treatment for activation of complement system in vitro.
