  1. 1. On Derailment-Worthiness in Rail Vehicle Design : Analysis of vehicle features influencing derailment processes and consequences

    Author : Dan Brabie; Evert Andersson; Roderick A Smith; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; derailment; bogie design; wheel-sleeper impact; simulation; deviation; vehicle inter-connection; guidance mechanism; substitute guidance; articulated train; railway safety; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at systematically studying the possibilities of minimizing devastating consequences of high-speed rail vehicle derailments by appropriate measures and features in the train design including the running gear. Firstly, an empirical database is established containing as much relevant information as possible of past incidents and accidents that have occurred at substantial running speeds due to mechanical failure close to the interface between the running gear and the track.

  2. 2. Studies on Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Microdispensing, Neurite Guidance and Galectins

    Author : Per Gustavsson; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vävnadskultur; histokemi; cytokemi; Histologi; tissue culture; histochemistry; cytochemistry; Histology; Schwann cells; sciatic nerve; dorsal root ganglia; DRG; neurite guidance; galectins; inkjet; microdispensing; peripheral nervous system; nerve regeneration; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : The present thesis describes development of a microdispenser-based technique to create of protein patterns for neurite guidance. The same technique was also developed to allow direct positioning of dissociated cells, including neurons, on cell culture substrates. Finally the role of galectin-3 and 8 during nerve regeneration was investigated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Anticancer drug treatment in pediatric patients : studies on optimizing dosage and on parental guidance for improved drug handling at home

    Author : Ranaa Akkawi el Edelbi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Every year about 370 children are diagnosed with cancer in Sweden. The treatment includes both inpatient and outpatient care with anticancer drugs. At the clinic, the optimal anticancer drug dosage is usually derived from the patient’s body surface area (BSA). READ MORE

  4. 4. Long time follow up of implant therapy and treatment of peri-implantitis

    Author : Ann‐Marie Roos‐Jansåker; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : POPULÄRVETENSKAPLIG SAMMANSTÄLLNINGDentala implantat har blivit ett ofta använt alternativ för att ersätta förlorade tänder, vilket resulterat i att en ökad andel av den vuxna befolkningen är försedd med implantatförankrad protetik. Trots attfördelaktiga långtidsresultat av implantatbehandling rapporteratsförekommer infektioner. READ MORE

  5. 5. The missing links : Towards an Informed Substitution of Durable Water Repellent Chemicals for Textiles

    Author : Steffen Schellenberger; Ian Cousins; Stefan Stolte; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Durable water repellents (DWRs) that provide liquid repellency to functional textiles are part of an ongoing global substitution process. The process of substitution was initiated after DWRs based on side-chain fluorinated polymers (long-chain SFPs) were identified to contribute to the diffuse release of long-chain perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) to the environment.
