16. Meso-scale modelling of composites and semi-crystalline polymers
Sammanfattning : This thesis covers the first few steps of a multi-scale computer simulation strategy for predicting physical properties of complex polymers like composites and semi-crystalline polymers. Meso-scale simulations of crystallization and solvent diffusion in polyethylene as well as simulations examining the geometrical impact on the effective permittivity of composites have been performed.

17. Multifunctional magnetic materials prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition
Sammanfattning : Pulsed LASER deposition (PLD) is widely recognized as excellent deposition technique owing to stoichiometric transfer of target material, easy preparation and high quality. Thin films from few nanometers to micrometer regime can be fabricated with equal ease. LÄS MER
18. Multimodal Imaging of Anisotropic Hierarchical Materials
Sammanfattning : The thesis is focused on studying the nanostructure of natural and synthetic hierarchical materials with biological applications, using X-ray scattering imaging and birefringence microscopy. The term "hierarchical materials" is used for structures composed of sub-units organised in different length scales that create the building blocks for the next level. LÄS MER
19. Bioactive Surgical Implant Coatings with Optional Antibacterial Function
Sammanfattning : Device associated infections are a growing problem in the field of orthopaedics and dentistry. Bacteria adhering to implant surfaces and subsequent biofilm formation are challenging to treat with systemic administered antibiotics. LÄS MER
20. On Thermomechanical Fatigue of Single-Crystal Superalloys
Sammanfattning : Thanks to their excellent mechanical and chemical properties at temperatures up to 1000 °C, nickel-based superalloys are used in critical components in high-temperature applications such as gas turbines and aero engines. One of the most critical components in a gas turbine is the turbine blade, and to improve the creep and fatigue properties of this component, it is sometimes cast in single-crystal form rather than in the more conventional poly-crystalline form.
