  2. 6. Snow contamination of cars: Collisions of ice particles with surfaces

    Author : Tobias Eidevåg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ice adhesion; Snow adhesion; coefficient of restitution; particle impacts; premelting; radar blockage;

    Abstract : Seasonal snow cover on roads causes car accidents that lead to human suffering and economic loss. Snow cover decreases visibility and road-tire friction. Advanced active safety systems have been developed to cope with sudden changes in driving conditions and have been engineered to act as quickly as possible. READ MORE

  4. 7. Equality before custom? - A study of property rights of previously disadvantaged women under land reform and communal tenure in post-apartheid South Africa

    Author : Annika Rudman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Gender equality; Customary law; Land reform; Communal tenure; South Africa; Traditional leadership; Africa; Feminism Restitution of land rights; Women’s property rights; Poverty reduction and development;

    Abstract : Based on legal primary and secondary sources as well as text based and secondary data, Equality before custom? explores the relationship between statutory law and customary law in relation to previously disadvantaged women’s access to land through land reform, in post-apartheid South Africa. With the point of departure in this new constitutional order, the position of official customary law and living custom in land reform and communal land tenure is examined. READ MORE

  5. 8. Restorative and neuroprotective treatment strategies for Parkinson’s disease: tudies on fetal dopamine cell transplants and GDNF delivery by intracerebral injections and recombinant AAV vectors

    Author : Deniz Kirik; Neurobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adeno-associated virus; regeneration; neuroprotection; glial-cell-line-derived-neurotrophic factor; cell death; substantia nigra; dopamine; neurofysiologi; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; neurophysiology; neuropsychology; Neurology; tyrosine hydroxylase; sensorimotor behavior; transplantation; gene therapy;

    Abstract : The intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesion model in rats is particularly useful in studies testing new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson’s disease. This thesis work (1) describes the characterization of the motor deficits after different types of intrastriatal lesions and identifies the four-site terminal lesion as a model of symptomatic Parkinson’s disease; (2) using the same model, provides evidence that the functional impact of the dopamine cell grafts are dependent on interactions with the host brain; (3) demonstrates that protection or restitution of normal motor function after 6-hydroxydopamine lesions can be achieved if glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor is administered in the striatum at the time of the terminal fiber degeneration.

  6. 9. Molecular and structural patterns of guided bone regeneration (GBR). Experimental studies on the role of GBR membrane and bone substitute materials

    Author : Ibrahim Elgali; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Regenerative medicine; biomaterials; bone substitute; calcium phosphate; guided bone regeneration; membrane; strontium; bone defect; bone remodeling; inflammation; cytokines; chemokines; growth factors; gene expression; histomorphometry; in vivo;

    Abstract : The mechanisms of guided bone regeneration (GBR) and bone healing with calcium phosphate (CaP) bone substitutes are not fully understood. The major aim of this thesis was to determine the relationship between the bone formation in bone defects and the cellular distribution and activities in association with CaP materials and/or with GBR membrane.

  7. 10. Understanding Adhesive Mixtures for Inhalation : Particle Dynamics Modelling and Segregation Experiments

    Author : Sohan Sarangi; Göran Frenning; Göran Alderborn; Kyrre Thalberg; Johannes Khinast; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; inhalation; adhesive mixtures; dry powder inhaler; discrete element method; segregation; stability; modeling; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Pulmonary route has been used as a source of drug delivery to lungs for centuries. Drugformulation decides the type of inhaler devices such as pressurized metered-dose inhalers(pMDIs), nebulizers and dry powder inhalers (DPIs). READ MORE
