11. A Novel Immersed-Boundary Method for Multiple Moving and Interacting Bodies
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the development, implementation and validation of an implicit, second order accurate, finite-volume and instationary immersed-boundary method for simulating the detailed flow around multiple arbitrary moving and interacting bodies. The potential for flows including moving bodies or boundaries, such as multiphase flows still has to be fully realized. LÄS MER
12. Methodological aspects on carotid artery intervention
Sammanfattning : In Sweden, approximately 25000 patients suffer a cerebral infarction (stroke) annually. Stroke ranks as the third-leading cause of death, and is the leading cause of functional impairment. Carotid artery stenosis accounts for approximately 15% of all strokes and almost all of these are theoretically preventable. LÄS MER
13. Validation and clinical implementation of an MRI-only prostate cancer radiotherapy workflow
Sammanfattning : The radiotherapy workflow for prostate cancer is associated with systematic uncertainty stemming from the registration between the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images. A radiotherapy workflow based solely on MR imaging (MRI), called an MRI-only workflow, has been suggested as a means of eliminating this uncer¬tainty. LÄS MER
14. Injuries, risk factors, consequences and injury perceptions in adolescent elite athletes
Sammanfattning : Background: Injury and health data are not fully explored in adolescent elite athletes, yet essential for understanding injury risk, consequences of injuries and developing injury preventive programs. Aims: To explore injury patterns, training and health variables, such as nutritional behaviour, self-esteem, self-perceived stress, sleeping habits, as well as identify risk factors for sustaining a sport injury among adolescent elite athletes.

15. Electronic structure and optical properties of PbY and SnY (Y=S, Se, and Te)
Sammanfattning : Lead chalcogenides and tin chalcogenides and their alloys are IV−VI family semiconductors with unique material properties compared with similar semiconductors. For instance, PbY (Y = S, Se, and Te) are narrow-gap semiconductors with anomalous negative pressure coefficient and positive temperature coefficient. LÄS MER
