1. Micromechanical Modelling of Wood and Fibre Properties
Sammanfattning : Wood is a material with mechanical properties that vary markedly, both within a tree and among trees. Moisture changes lead to shrinkage or swelling and modify the mechanical properties. LÄS MER
2. Continuous monitoring of mineral processes with special focus on tumbling mills : a multivariate approach
Sammanfattning : Increasing emphasis on productivity and quality control has provided an impetus to research on better methodologies for diagnosis, modelling, monitoring, control and optimisation of mineral process systems. One of the biggest challenges facing the research community is the processing of raw sensor data into meaningful information. LÄS MER
3. Echocardiographic measurements at Takotsubo cardiomyopathy : transient left ventricular dysfunction
Sammanfattning : Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a disease characterized by transient left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and typical wall motion abnormalities in apical parts, without obvious signs of coronary influence. Due to its elusive natural cause and the lack of clarified pathology, further studies are needed. LÄS MER
4. Mitral annulus motion in left ventricular pumping
Sammanfattning : This thesis focus on the role of the mitral annulus motion (MAM) versus outer contour changes in the short axis, in left ventricular (LV) pumping. The influence of atrial contraction on LV dimensions and volumes and the relation between MAM and ejection fraction (EF) in sinus rhythm and in atrial fibrillation was also studied. LÄS MER
5. Timber/Glass Adhesive Bonds for Structural Applications
Sammanfattning : Timber with its natural appearance and glass with its transparency may be appealing material for architects and users of modern buildings. Glass is a brittle material, but it is about six times stiffer than timber. Combined appropriately, the materials could form different types of composite products, e.g. LÄS MER
