  1. 1. Resonator sensor technique for medical use : an intraocular pressure measurement system

    Författare :Anders Eklund; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensor; Vibration; Hardness; Prostate; intraocular pressure; resonator; eye; applanation; glaucoma;

    Sammanfattning : In the work of this doctoral dissertation a new resonator sensor technique, first presented in 1989, has been further developed and evaluated with focus on technical characteristics and applications within the medical field. In a first part a catheter-type tactile sensor using the resonator sensor technique was evaluated in a silicone model and applied to human prostate in vitro. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Characterization of an Electrical Sensor for Combustion Diagnostics

    Författare :Axel Franke; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ion sensor; combustion; nitric oxide; chemi-ionization; equilibrium; Physics; ionized gases; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Franke; ionization sensor; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The ionization sensor is an electrical probe for diagnostics in internal combustion engines. The combustion process affects the electrical properties of the gas in the cylinder. Thus the sensor signal contains copious information about the conditions in the combustion chamber. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A Study of an Integrated Safety System for the Protection of Adult Pedestrians from Car Collisions

    Författare :Sunan Huang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Remote Sensor System; Reversible Hood; Traffic Accidents; Contact Sensor; Pedestrian Protection; Reversible Bumper;

    Sammanfattning : This study aimed to evaluate and improve the performance of a newly developed safety system intended to protect pedestrians during frontal car collisions. This system includes a remote sensor system, a contact sensor, a reversible bumper system (RBS), and a reversible hood (RH). LÄS MER

  4. 4. Tactile sensing of prostate cancer : a resonance sensor method evaluated using human prostate tissue in vitro

    Författare :Ville Jalkanen; Olof Lindahl; Britt Andersson; Tomas Jansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tactile resonance sensor; prostate tissue; prostate cancer; stiffness; density; elastic; variations; tissue histology; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most frequent type of cancer in men in Europe and the USA. The methods presently used to detect and diagnose prostate cancer are inexact, and new techniques are needed. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Liquid metal microscale deposition for soft and stretchable skin-like electronics : Providing a soft and gentle contact to living beings

    Författare :Bei Wang; Klas Hjort; Zhigang Wu; Magnus Berggren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; laser patterning; sacrificial mask; liquid metal; strain sensor; skin movement; masking; shrink film; 3D conformal masking; liquid metal particles; soft electronics; stretchable electronics; compliant electronics; skin-like electronics; epidermal electronics; micro-heater; particle sintering; enteroendocrine cells; localized ectopic expression; wettability; flexography printing; conformal transfer printing; hydro printing; plant physiology; drosophila;

    Sammanfattning : Skin-like electronics could provide a soft and gentle contact with living beings for perceiving and delivering the information of pressure, strain, temperature with higher spatial resolution and sensitivity than our skin, without disturbing the user. Gallium-based liquid metal (LM) is an excellent material for soft and stretchable skin-like devices, since it has high electrical and thermal conductivity, flowability, and self-healable capability.
