  2. 1. Role of DNA repair in class switch recombination and somatic hypermutation

    Author : Likun Du; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM), occurring in the germinal center, are two important processes for B cell development. Both are initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID), through deamination of the C residues in the variable and switch regions of the immunoglobulin locus, resulting in either in single stranded or double stranded DNA breaks.

  4. 2. Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges : Data-based damage detection method using Machine Learning

    Author : Ana C. Neves; Raid Karoumi; Elsa Caetano; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Health Monitoring; damage detection; Machine Learning; data-based methods; Artificial Neural Networks; Value of Information; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : Civil engineering structures built according to modern codes are designed for a service life of normally more than 100 years. At the same time, there is a growing pressure to keep existing aged structures in service despite the fact that they have reached the original designed lifetime, with bridges being a good example of this.

  5. 3. Lessons Learned in Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges Using Advanced Sensor Technology

    Author : Merit Enckell; Johan Silfwerbrand; Konrad Bergmeister; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Health Monitoring; Structural Health Monitoring System; bridges; sensor technology; emerging technology; fibre optics; fibre optic sensors concrete; creep; shrinkage; steel; distributed sensors; crack detection; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur;

    Abstract : Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) with emerging technologies like e.g. fibre optic sensors, lasers, radars, acoustic emission and Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) made an entrance into the civil engineering field in last decades. Expansion of new technologies together with development in data communication benefited for rapid development. READ MORE

  6. 4. Immunoglobulin gene usage and affinity maturation in antiviral antibodies

    Author : Pradeepa Pushparaj; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The ability of antibodies to block infections makes them highly relevant for successful vaccine development. Through the papers described in this thesis, I attempt to characterize the functional and genetic aspects of antiviral antibodies induced by infection and vaccination. READ MORE

  7. 5. Structural health monitoring using modern sensor technology : long-term monitoring of the New Årsta Railway Bridge

    Author : Merit Enckell; Håkan Sundqvist; Daniele Inaudi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Health Monitoring; bridges; sensory technology; fibre optics; concrete.; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a helpful tool for engineers in order to control and verify the structural behaviour. SHM also guides the engineers and owners of structures in decision making concerning the maintenance, economy and safety of structures. READ MORE
