  1. 1. Genetic and molecular regulation of epithelial tube morphogenesis

    Author : Anna Tonning; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : epithelial tube morphogenesis; trachea; Drosophila; chitin; chitin synthase; apical extracellular matrix; paracellular diffusion barrier; tube expansion; septate junctions;

    Abstract : Networks of epithelial tubes, such as the vertebrate lung, kidney and vascular system, enable transport of gases and nutrients to all tissues in the body. These tubes are built up by a single layer of polarized epithelial cells, with the apical membrane facing the lumen. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling of the Stainless Steel Tube Extrusion Process

    Author : Sofia Hansson; Erman Tekkaya; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extrusion; FEM; Stainless steel; Tube; Simulering av extrusion av rostfria rör; Material Mechanics;

    Abstract : Seamless tubes of stainless steel can be extruded using glass as a lubricant in the Ugine-Sejournet process. The process is performed at high temperature and is associated with large deformations and high strain rates. READ MORE

  3. 3. Molecular regulation of epithelial tube size

    Author : Erika Tång Hallbäck; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Drosophila; tube shape; trachea; chitin; luminal matrix; epithelial tubes; morphogenesis; chloride channel; subapical actin;

    Abstract : In nature, epithelial tubes are vital structures in organ design and are required for transport of gases and liquids in organs, such as the vascular system, the vertebrate lung and the kidneys. The tubular epithelium is single layered, but is often reinforced by layers of muscular support. READ MORE

  4. 4. Assessing precision and accuracy in acoustic scattering matrix measurements

    Author : Luck Peerlings; Hans Bodén; Susann Boij; Avraham Hirschberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aero-acoustics; sudden area expansion; in-duct acoustics; acoustic scattering matrix; impedance tube; uncertainty analysis; systematic errors; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Acoustic scattering matrices are used to characterize the influence of inline duct elements on the acoustic wave propagation in wave guides.When measuring the properties of these matrices, errors are always present in the results and need to be characterized to make valid statements on the correspondence between model predictions and measurements.

  5. 5. Measurements and Modelling of Convective Vaporization for Refrigerants in a Horizontal Tube

    Author : Peter Melin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; n-butane; HFC134a; pressure drop; propane; HFC143a; horizontal flow boiling; in-tube vaporization; HFC125; HFC32; experimental study; HCFC142b; HCFC22; non-azeotropic mixtures; CFC12; modelling; mixture effects;

    Abstract : An evaporator facility has been constructed to measure local values of heat transfer and pressure drop. The evaporator resembles a normal working evaporator tube in a direct-expansion evaporator applicable to large heat pump/refrigeration cycles, typically over 500 kW. The evaporator is brine-heated and uses an expansion valve to control the inlet. READ MORE
