16. Numerical and experimental study of acoustic and structural optimization
Sammanfattning : The main objective with this thesis has been to create a procedure (method and program code) that enables automatic optimization of acoustic response from vibrating structures. Automatic means that the proposed method, on its own, should be able to find the desired acoustic quantities for a given problem formulation by altering given variables. LÄS MER
17. Exposure to inorganic arsenic in pregnancy and metabolism-nutrition interaction
Sammanfattning : Inorganic arsenic is metabolized by most mammals, including humans, via alternating reduction and oxidative methylation with S-adenosylmethionine as main methyl donor. Thus, it seems likely that it is influenced by the availability of methyl groups. LÄS MER
18. Mucosal regeneration following sinus surgery : an experimental study and clinical study
Sammanfattning : The investigations described in this thesis concerned functional and structural aspects of the regenerated sinus mucosa following sinus surgery. In a biopsy material collected pre- and postoperatively from patients with chronic maxillary sinusitis, randomized for treatment with either Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) or the Caldwell-Luc procedure (CL), histological parameters were evaluated semi-quantitatively and correlated to endoscopic findings and patients' symptoms.

19. Wood Nanotechnologies for Transparency, Fire Retardancy and Liquid Separation
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, wood nanotechnologies for transparent, fire-retardant and hydrophobic/lipophilic wood have been developed. There are two main parts; wood template preparation/processing concepts and materials design using these templates.In the wood template processing part, highly porous nanostructured wood templates are prepared.

20. Ionic Liquid Lubricants for Space Applications
Sammanfattning : Lubrication is critical to the efficient and reliable operation of machine elements such as gears, bearings, or any other moving mechanical assembly (MMA). On Earth, machine designers are accustomed to the access of a wide range of liquid lubricants that enable predictable and reliable long-term operations of high performance MMA. LÄS MER
