1. Diffusion in Bone Tissue
Sammanfattning : In order to prevent or modify the processes of bone degeneration the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. LÄS MER
2. Applications of diffusion MRI: Tensor-valued encoding, time-dependent diffusion, and histological validation
Sammanfattning : Diffusion MRI (dMRI) sensitizes the MR signal to the diffusion of water molecules at the microscopic level and thereby non-invasively probes tissue microstructure. This is relevant when determining biological properties of tissues, for example, cancer type and its malignancy. LÄS MER
3. On the Growth of Bone through Stress Driven Diffusion and Bone Generation Processes
Sammanfattning : In order to prevent or modify bone degeneration due to rest or due to diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. LÄS MER
4. Nanoplasmonics for solar cells
Sammanfattning : The main source of our energy system, the fossil fuels, will eventually be depleted and also pose environmental and climate hazards. There is thus a need for alternative, renewable energy sources. Solar (photovoltaic) cells will play an important role as one of them. LÄS MER
5. Lattice Boltzmann simulations of tracer diffusion in microswimmer suspensions
Sammanfattning : Suspensions of microswimmers are a class of systems inherently out of equilibrium, due to the mechanical work continuously performed by a large number of active agents. Biological examples are plentiful, as many aquatic microorganisms have the ability to propel themselves. LÄS MER
