21. Predicting Normal Tissue Complications after External Beam Radiation Therapy
Sammanfattning : Although modern external beam radiation (EBRT) therapy has the ability to conform the dose tightly around the volume to be treated, unwanted irradiation to surrounding normal tissue is still a problem. The probability of a side effect arising in normal tissue after EBRT is commonly modelled by an s-shaped dose-volume response curve where dose or volume are plotted against response (i. LÄS MER
22. Information geometries in black hole physics
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we aim to develop new perspectives on the statistical mechanics of black holes using an information geometric approach (Ruppeiner and Weinhold geometry). The Ruppeiner metric is defined as a Hessian matrix on a Gibbs surface, and provides a geometric description of thermodynamic systems in equilibrium. LÄS MER
23. Phase dependent heat transport in superconducting junctions with scattering theory
Sammanfattning : The operation of nanoscale devices at low temperatures is highly sensitive to heating effects. This motivates current research on controlling heat currents in these devices. LÄS MER
24. On the Use of Laser-Induced Incandescence for Soot Diagnostics: From Theoretical Aspects to Applications in Engines
Sammanfattning : The laser-induced incandescence technique (LII) is a laser-based diagnostic technique for measurements of soot volume fraction and particle size. The technique relies on detection of incandescent light from soot particles heated to around 4000 K using nanosecond laser pulses. LÄS MER
25. Exactly Solvable Models for Self-Assembly
Sammanfattning : The field of self-assembly studies the spontaneous formation of order from preexisting components.It holds the promise of fabricating tomorrows materials and devices not by traditional methods, but by designing building blocks that will act as supramolecular ``atoms'' and form the desired structures without external input.
