1. 1. Knitted architecture and wind: Designing loosely fitted architectural textiles for interaction with wind

   Författare :Erica Hörteborn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Textile architecture; Knitted textiles; Wind performance; Wind; Research by design; Kinetic architecture; Geometric expression; Wind simulation; Architectural design;

   Sammanfattning : Utilising the textile’s ability to adapt to external forces such as the wind could lead to the creation of new design expressions and functional features within architecture. Prompted by architectural potentials of textiles deliberately designed to move and flex, this thesis aims to explore and demonstrate how such knitted textiles could contribute to enriched aesthetic expression and improved performance of architectural elements placed in windy environments.

3. 2. Quantification of gene expression in single cells

   Författare :Martin Bengtsson; Islet cell physiology; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Biomedical sciences; Biomedicinska vetenskaper; quantitative gene expression analysis; single cell PCR; islets of Langerhans;

   Sammanfattning : Studies of apparently homogeneous cell populations and single cells often give highly divergent results. Cells exhibit varying responsiveness to stimuli and gene expression and they are in many aspects stochastic and unpredictable. We have developed a method to measure gene expression quantitatively in individual cells with real-time RT-PCR. LÄS MER

4. 3. Textile architecture informed by wind

   Författare :Erica Hörteborn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles; Research by design; Textile architecture; Kinetic architecture; Lightweight structures; Wind; Geometric expression; Knitted textiles;

   Sammanfattning : Textiles in architecture is a field of great potential, which are worth to explore further. This thesis aims to show that the flexibility of the textile material could be better included in the architectural design, allowing it to adapt to forces, such as the wind, and viewing motion as a positive design feature.

5. 4. Cell shape determines gene expression in cardiomyocytes

   Författare :Payam Haftbaradaran Esfahani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The fundamental biological processes involve sensing biophysical stress, strain and forces along with conversion of these stimuli into chemical signals. These processes are linked to the atrophic and hypertrophic responses. Deficiencies in these biological processes are associated with different diseases, particularly in the circulation system.

7. 5. Geometric analysis of stochastic model errors in system identification

   Författare :Jonas Mårtensson; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Michel Gevers; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatic Control; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Models of dynamical systems are important in many disciplines of science, ranging from physics and traditional mechanical and electrical engineering to life sciences, computer science and economics. Engineers, for example, use models for development, analysis and control of complex technical systems. LÄS MER
