2. 1. Analysis of Acrylamide and Anthocyanins in Foods : Extraction Optimization for Challenging Analytes

   Author : Erik V. Petersson; Charlotta Turner; Johan Rosén; Rolf Danielsson; Marja-Liisa Riekkola; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analysis; Extraction; Optimization; Acrylamide; Anthocyanins; Foods; Challenges; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the main concern has been to improve the reliability of different parts of the analytical workflow (Paper I, II, IV &V). Additionally, one of the resulting optimized methods was used in a real application (Paper III). Paper I-II concerned the extraction of acrylamide (AA) from foods. READ MORE

4. 2. Simulation-based Optimization and Decision Making with Imperfect Information

   Author : Farzad Kamrani; Rassul Ayani; Stephen John Turner; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Simulation-based Optimization; UAV Path Planning; Business Process Optimization;

   Abstract : The purpose of this work is to provide simulation-based support for making optimal (or near-optimal) decisions in situations where decision makers are faced with imperfect information. We develop several novel techniques and algorithms for simulation-based optimization and decision support and apply them to two categories of problems: (i) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) path planning in search operations, and; (ii) optimization of business process models.

5. 3. Mechanical optimization of orthopaedic bone screw constructs

   Author : Yijun Zhou; Cecilia Persson; Benedikt Helgason; Philip Procter; Richie Gill; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trabecular bone; screw implant; explicit finite element modelling; computed tomography; numerical optimization; neural network; hydrogel; Engineering Science with specialization in Biomedical Engineering; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot medicinsk teknik;

   Abstract : Orthopaedic screw implants are crucial in surgical procedures for bone structures, with a longstanding issue being screw loosening. Improving screw stability requires an enhanced understanding of the bone-implant interactions and associated failure mechanisms. This knowledge can be used to optimize screw designs. READ MORE

6. 4. Optimizing nontarget workflows for identification of organic contaminants in various matrices

   Author : Florian Dubocq; Anna Kärrman; Thanh Wang; Juliane Hollender; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nontarget analysis; workflow optimization; statistical analysis; mass defect plot; organic contaminants; environmental matrices;

   Abstract : Since year 2000, production of chemicals around the world has more than doubled. Chemicals are used in many and diverse applications in our everyday life and even if their properties are useful, some can have a negative impact on environment and humans. READ MORE

7. 5. Dose Management in Diagnostic Radiology - application of the DICOM imaging standard and a Monte Carlo dose engine for exposure surveillance

   Author : Hans-Erik Källman; Anders Ahnesjö; Hilde M. Olerud; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiology; metadata; DICOM; radiation safety; Monte Carlo; source model; patient model; optimization; justification; Medicinsk radiofysik; Medical Radiophysics;

   Abstract : Ionizing radiation is used in diagnostic radiology with a large contribution to the health of the patients. The regulations to limit the detrimental effects, e.g. cancer induction, are based on recommendations from the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). READ MORE
