1. Attenuation of hand-held machine vibrations. Application of non-linear tuned vibration absorber
Sammanfattning : Vibration injury in the hand-arm system from vibrating hand-held machines is one of the most common occupational health injuries and causes severe and often chronic nerve and vascular injuries to the operator. The objective with this study is to contribute to reduce hand-arm vibration injuries, first by developing methods of redesigning machines that will lower their vibration level and second to study how high frequency vibrations (HFV) above 1250 Hz effect the finger tissue which are not included in the current standard for risk evaluation.

2. The Physical Axon : Modeling, Simulation and Electrode Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Electrodes are used in medicine for detection of biological signals and for stimulating tissue, e.g. in deep brain stimulation (DBS). For both applications, an understanding of the functioning of the electrode, and its interface and interaction with the target tissue involved is necessary. LÄS MER
3. Computerized Alignment and Deformation Correction of Microscopic Serial Section Images of Nervous Tissue
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes an investigation into digital techniques for image alignment and deformation correction with special reference to serial light and electron microscopic images. These techniques are applied in three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of nervous tissue, especially the superficial gray matter of the brain - cortex cerebri. LÄS MER
4. In Vitro – In Vivo Correlation of Injectable Lipid Formulations
Sammanfattning : In order to develop new pharmaceuticals, to optimize pharmacotherapy and secure patient safety, documentation of the properties of pharmaceutical formulations is a most important process. A significant practical problem associated with pre-clinical evaluation of lipophilic substances with pharmacological properties is their low aqueous solubility. LÄS MER
5. Dual-modality probe for prostate cancer detection by combining Raman spectroscopy and tactile resonance technology
Sammanfattning : Prostate adenocarcinoma, or prostate cancer (PCa), is the most common type of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths for men in Sweden and Europe. Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the most common curative treatment for PCa. This is a surgical procedure where the entire prostate is removed. LÄS MER
