  1. 1. Actomyosin in biocomputation

    Author : Aseem Salhotra; Alf Månsson; Henry Hess; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biocomputation; molecular motors; 3-SAT; surface chemistry; actomyosin; actin; myosin II; heavy meromyosin; myosin XI; engineered myosin; in vitro motility assay; nanofabrication; alternate computing; network based biocomputation; protein-surface interaction; longevity; prolongation; surface recycling; affinity purification; blocking actin; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : There exist complex mathematical problems that are important in real world applications such as weather prediction, molecular modelling, network route optimization and more. In general, such problems are solved using supercomputers with higher computing efficiency but this also consumes high energy along with high production and maintenance cost. READ MORE

  3. 3. Cardiovascular aspects on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease : with focus on ischemic ECG abnormalities, QT prolongation and arterial stiffness

    Author : Ulf Nilsson; Anne Lindberg; Anders Blomberg; Bengt Johansson; Christine Brulin; Per Bakke; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epidemiology; COPD; ischemic heart disease; cardiovascular disease; ECG; spirometry; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Abstract : Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD) is an under-diagnosed disease with a prevalence of approximately 10%, highly dependent on age and smoking habits. Comorbidities are common in COPD and of these, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the most common. READ MORE

  4. 4. Antiarrhythmic and arrhythmic effects of an Ikr-blocking class III agent. A clinical and electrocardiographic study of almokalant

    Author : Birgitta Houltz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Almokalant; class III antiarrhythmic agent; potassium channel blocker; atrial fibrillation; sinus rhythm; conversion; electrocardiographic; QT interval prolongation; T wave morphology; prediction; torsades de pointes; proarrhythmia; QT dispersion; ventric;

    Abstract : The interest in class III drugs has increased over the last decades as being potent antiarrhythmic agents in their mode of action by prolongation of repolarization and with no effect on conduction. Class I antiarrhythmic agents have proven effective in conversion of atrial fibrillation (AF), but may cause serious proarrhythmia. READ MORE

  5. 5. Computational Homogenization of Transient Problems - Application to Porous Media

    Author : Fang Su; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; consolidation; Representative Volume Element RVE ; homogenization; FE2;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the development and analysis of a homogenization-basedcomputational strategy for simulating the transient and nonlinear coupled consolidationproblem in micro-heterogeneous porous media. A variational framework and the pertinentfinite element (FE) strategy, based on a generalized macro-homogeneity condition,are proposed for the spatial homogenization of a class of transient problems, wherebythe classical assumption of first order homogenization is adopted.
