  1. 21. Novel technologies for studies of structural and functional connections

    Författare :Bianca Migliori; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : To understand the mechanisms underlying the correct functioning of an organ it is important to study its architecture and how the interactions between cells are leading to a specific function. Specifically, the connections that form in the brain are related to the pattern of activation that neurons have, and can help to understand what is the function of each region. LÄS MER

  2. 22. The architecture of the aging brain : functional reorganization, structural changes, and the role of dopamine receptors

    Författare :Robin Pedersen; Alireza Salami; Anna Rieckmann; Anders Wåhlin; Lars Nyberg; Roser Sala-Llonch; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; brain architecture; functional connectivity; dopamine; aging; cognition; memory; functional magnetic resonance imaging; positron emission tomography; graph theory; Laplacian eigenmapping; gradient;

    Sammanfattning : Aging is associated with reorganization of functional brain architecture, potentially leading tocognitive decline in older age. However, the mechanisms responsible for alterations in functionalbrain architecture remain poorly understood. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Assessment of existing concrete bridges : bending stiffness as a performance indicator

    Författare :Markus Bergström; Paulo J. de S. Cruz; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Optimizing the use of existing civil reinforced concrete (RC) structures could be interpreted in such a way as to say that the capacity should be used and taken care of in an effective manner, both from a technical and economical point of view, keeping the safety in mind. Achieving this requires thorough understanding of the structure and also of the tools used for assessing current and future capacity and needs. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Development of a new service-oriented modelling method for information systems analysis and design

    Författare :Prima Gustiené; Anders G Nilsson; Sten Carlsson; William Wei Song; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information systems analysis and design; conceptual modeling; service orientation; semantic integrity; static and dynamic aspects; goal modeling.; Informatics; Informatik; Information Systems; Informatik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a new modelling method for information systems analysis and design, where the concept of service and the principles of service orientation are used for integrated modelling and reasoning about information systems architectures across organisational and technical systems boundaries. The concept of service enables cohesion of the intersubjective and objective modelling traditions by using a single type of diagram that facilitates detection of semantic inconsistency, incompleteness, ambiguity and discontinuity between the static and dynamic aspects of information systems specifications.

  5. 25. Cement-Poor Concrete and Grout for Use in Underground Constructions

    Författare :Mohammed Hatem; Leena Korkiala-Tanttu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the composition and properties of cement-based materials, concrete and grout, for use as seals and for stabilizing fracture zones in underground facilities like mines and repositories for chemical and radioactive waste. It is of general character with respect to the composition and preparation of concretes and grouts but focuses on the sealing of boreholes for mineral prospection and site investigation for locating underground repositories of hazardous waste.
