  1. 16. Production of neocartilage tissues using primary chondrocytes

    Författare :Janne Ylärinne; Mikko Lammi; Chengjuan Qu; Mats Brittberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; primary chondrocytes; articular cartilage; tissue engineering; neocartilage; scaffold; scaffold-free; hyaluronan; self-assembling peptide; TGF-β3; glucosamine sulfate; hypoxia; hypertonic medium; glucose;

    Sammanfattning : Hyaline cartilage is a highly specialized tissue, which plays an important role in the articulating joints of an individual. It provides the joints with a nearly frictionless, impact resisting surface to protect the ends of the articulating bones. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Torque based combustion phasing control

    Författare :Stefan Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extremum seeking control; Combustion phasing control; Spark-advance control; Individual cylinder control; Engine control;

    Sammanfattning : Due to environmental aspects and emission legislations the automotive industry is striving towards more efficient combustion engines. Many engine control systems in production today are based on look-up tables which are calibrated for different operating conditions. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Medication communication with older adults experiencing chronic illness and polypharmacy

    Författare :Igor Adelsjö; Elin C. Lehnbom; Mirjam Ekstedt; Amanda Hellström; Lina Nilsson; Patrik Midlöv; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Omvårdnad; Nursing;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Populations in many high-income countries are ageing, with an ever-increasing proportion of the population aged 65 years or older. Despite increasingly better health in older people, susceptibility to chronic illness increase with age. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Chemical modification of cellulose-new possibilities of some classical routes

    Författare :Merima Hasani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose esters; Cellulose characterization; Cellulose ethers; Cationization; Cellulose nanocrystals; Crosslinking of cellulose;

    Sammanfattning : Owning to its unique structure, along with the inexhaustible renewability, cellulose has been a subject of scientific and commercial interest for over 150 years. However, given attractive structural properties, such as stiffness, hydrophilicity, stereoregularity, potential for chemical modifications and ability to form superstructures, utilization of this biopolymer is far below its potential.

  7. 20. Designing for Mindfulness : An Exploration of Interaction Design with Biodata Inspired by Chinese Aesthetics

    Författare :Bin Zhu; Haibo Li; Anders Hedman; Kristina Höök; Xiangshi Ren; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The Quantified Self (QS) movement and self-tracking technologies in personal informatics are opening up opportunities for users to manage their health and wellbeing. Until now, researchers have explored how to monitor health and change people’s behaviors through bio-sensing technologies. LÄS MER
