  1. 1. Diversity of thermostable DNA enzymes from Icelandic hot springs

    Författare :Sigridur Hjorleifsdottir; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermophiles; microbial diversity; SSU rRNA; Thermus; hot springs; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Biochemistry; enzymologi; Proteiner; enzymology; metabolism; Proteins; DNA enzymes; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The diversities of bacteria as well as thermostable DNA enzymes in Icelandic hot springs were studied using different techniques. First of all the bacterial diversity of different microbial mats as well as sediment samples was described by using both molecular methods and cultivation methods. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Groundwater occurrence and risk of pollution in a mountain watershed of Nicaragua

    Författare :Alfredo Mendoza; Teknisk geologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; teknisk geologi; electrical resistivity; surface water; springs; Nicaragua; Hydrogeology; groundwater; teknisk geografi; geographical and geological engineering; Hydrogeologi;

    Sammanfattning : Hydrogeological and geophysical methods were applied in the Río Artiguas watershed, a mountain basin located in central Nicaragua. This area is under environmental stress from anthropogenic activities like gold mining using mercury and waste disposal into the streams. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Walking efficiently with smart springs

    Författare :Israel Luis; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Ruoli Wang; Benjamin J. Fregly; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Musculoskeletal modeling and simulation; muscle-tendon biomechanics; muscle parameter calibration; metabolic energy models; gait analysis; exoskeleton assistance; biomechanics; Biomekanisk modellering och simulering; rörelseorganen; biomekanik; muskel; muskelmodell och muskelarkitektur; metabolisk energi och kostnad; gång; gånganalys; exoskelett; hjälpmedel; gångpatologi; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Numerous assistive exoskeletons have been developed in recent years to assist walking in individuals with and without motor disorders. A standard metric to measure the efficacy of assistance is the change in the metabolic energy cost between unassisted and assisted conditions. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Phylogenetic characterization of microbial mats and isolation of Thermus spp. and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria from Icelandic hot springs

    Författare :Sigurlaug Skirnisdottir; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biochemical technology; hot springs; thermophiles; microbial diversity; SSU rRNA; sulfur-oxidizers; Thermus; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biokemisk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Until recently, the only way to describe microbial communities was by cultivation. This is a major obstacle because typically only a small fraction of the microbes can be cultivated by standard techniques. However, the use of rRNA and molecular phylogenetic techniques has allowed us to bypass this limitation. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Applications of the Virtual Holonomic Constraints Approach : Analysis of Human Motor Patterns and Passive Walking Gaits

    Författare :Uwe Mettin; Anton Shiriaev; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Motion Planning; Humanoid Robots; Virtual Holonomic Constraints; Underactuated Mechanical Systems; Mechanical Springs; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of robotics there is a great interest in developing strategies and algorithms to reproduce human-like behavior. One can think of human-like machines that may replace humans in hazardous working areas, perform enduring assembly tasks, serve the elderly and handicapped, etc. LÄS MER
