16. Towards enhanced mechanical braking systems for trains. Thermomechanical capacity of wheel treads at stop braking
Sammanfattning : Modern trains are equipped with different braking systems, between which the braking effort can be distributed. Among these, tread braking is still the most common system for friction braking. Tread brake systems are cheap and robust. LÄS MER
17. Eating, chewing and the mind
Sammanfattning : The need for detailed description of eating behavior has become relevant by the limited success of simplified models in genetics and neuroscience to explain and predict eating behavior in humans. Failure of cognitive interventions, combined with the success of treatments normalising eating styles in obesity and eating disorders, demonstrates the central role of eating in dealing with these problems.

18. Extension of the Pressure Time Method to 3-Dimensional Flows
Sammanfattning : Hydropower has stood as a clean and sustainable energy source since the late 19th century. Many turbines were built 50 to 70 years ago and require refurbishment. It is important to assess the efficiency of turbines before and after refurbishment to meet performance guarantees .However, the flow rate makes such estimation challenging. LÄS MER
19. Clinical Consequences of Axonal Injury in Traumatic Brain Injury
Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI), mainly caused by road-traffic accidents and falls, is a leading cause of mortality. Survivors often display debilitating motor, sensory and cognitive symptoms, leading to reduced quality of life and a profound economic burden to society. LÄS MER
20. Sport surfaces in show jumping
Sammanfattning : Properties of sport surfaces influence the occurrence of injuries and the performance of equine athletes. The sports governing body seeks to develop standards for safety and performance of show jumping surfaces. Limited information is available to guide this process. LÄS MER
