  1. 6. Protein folding variants, for better or for worse? The lesson learned from HAMLET

    Författare :Malin Svensson; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical biology; prion; apo; fatty acid; apoptosis; lactalbumin; folding variant; Klinisk biologi;

    Sammanfattning : By varying its secondary or tertiary structure a single protein can attain new biological functions. The amyloid forming proteins are the best known examples where a change in conformation leads to the formation of amyloid fibrils that accumulate in tissues and cause disease. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Vehicle wakes in side wind

    Författare :Magnus Urquhart; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surrogate model; optimization; CFD; wind; crossflow; drag; yaw; cavity; wake; tomographic PIV; aerodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : There is a global push to reduce the energy consumption of passenger vehicles with increasingly stringent targets and regulations. More than one-tenth of Europe's greenhouse gasses are due to passenger vehicles. The aerodynamic drag is a major contributor to energy consumption responsible for more than a quarter of the vehicle's energy usage. LÄS MER

  3. 8. New Technology-Based Firms and Industrial Dynamics Evidence from the Technological System of Biomaterials in Sweden, Ohio and Massachusetts

    Författare :Annika Rickne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; firm development; policy; industrial dynamics; technological system; growth; connectivity; management; biomaterial; new technology-based firm; co-evolution;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to enhance the understanding of the relationship between industrial dynamics and new technology-based firms (henceforth NTBFs). For a population of biomaterials NTBFs in Sweden, Ohio and Massachusetts, we have analyzed two facets of this issue. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Liquid crystalline polymers for nonlinear optics : pyroelectric polymers and ferroelectric dendrimers

    Författare :Jonas Örtegren; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with liquid crystalline materialsincluding monomers, side-chain polymers, crosslinked polymers,and dendrimers. The materials are pyroelectric, meaning thatthere is a macroscopic electric polarization in the material,which is energetically stable in the absence of externalfields. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Remedial Injection Grouting of Embankment Dams with Non-Hardening Grouts

    Författare :Johan Lagerlund; Håkan Stille; Sven Knutsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is to study the possibility of injection grouting of embankment dams affected by internal erosion. Internal erosion is a process where certain soil material from an embankment dam is removed. This phenomenon occurs in the central core of the embankment dam. LÄS MER
