13. Micro-cracking and delaminations of composite laminates under tensile quasi-static and cyclic loading
Sammanfattning : Aerospace industry is devoted to improving the aircraft performance while reducing its weight and limiting the emissions. Part of this objective can be accomplished with the use of high-performance long fibre reinforced polymer laminated composites. LÄS MER
14. Neogenesis and alloxan toxicity in pancreatic islets, with special reference to the transplanted human β-cell
Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to study whether adult human pancreatic β-cells have the capacity to proliferate in culture and after transplantation to the renal subcapsular space of mice. An immunosuppressive regimen for human islet discordant xenotransplantation to mice was designed. LÄS MER
