11. Microfluidic Compartmentalization for Smart Materials, Medical Diagnostics and Cell Therapy
Sammanfattning : The organisation of fluids in small compartments is ubiquitous in nature, such as in the cellular composition of all life. This work explores several engineering avenues where microscale fluid compartmentalization can bring novel material properties or novel functionality in life sciences or medicine. LÄS MER
12. Integration of Electrospun Materials in Microelectronic and Biomedical Applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis demonstrates the use of electrospinning and the novel properties of electrospunmaterials in two fields.The microelectronics industry has identified thermal interface materials as one of themajor bottlenecks hindering further integration at packaging level. LÄS MER
13. The Physical Axon : Modeling, Simulation and Electrode Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Electrodes are used in medicine for detection of biological signals and for stimulating tissue, e.g. in deep brain stimulation (DBS). For both applications, an understanding of the functioning of the electrode, and its interface and interaction with the target tissue involved is necessary. LÄS MER
14. Novel Materials and Implant Designs for the Treatment of Degenerative Disc Disease
Sammanfattning : The overarching objective of this thesis was to develop intervertebral implants for degenerated discs through design, fabrication, and mechanical validation. The research had four primary aims, each addressing different facets of implant development. LÄS MER
15. Mechanical optimization of orthopaedic bone screw constructs
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
