6. A study of the molecular pathways of wood formation using peptide mass spectrometry
Sammanfattning : Wood consists essentially of secondary plant cell walls, composed of a cellulose and hemicellulose network impregnated with lignin. It is formed via the development of derivatives of a thin layer of cells (the vascular cambium) into xylem cells through cell division, expansion, secondary wall formation, lignification and, finally, programmed cell death.

7. Dynamic Plate and Shell Equations Using Power Series Expansions - Applications Including Elasticity, Poroelasticity and Fluid Loading
Sammanfattning : Thin structures are used in a wide range of engineering applications. The subject of this thesis is the derivation of approximate equations for the dynamics of thin plates and shells using series expansion methods. LÄS MER
8. Genetic modification and mesodermal differentiation of human embryonic stem cells
Sammanfattning : Background: Pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a resource of great potential, available for research. Their capability to differentiate into any cell of the human body and an unlimited in vitro expansion offers the possibility to study the earliest human development and provides a source of cells for regenerative medicine.

9. Reduced Order Modeling and Substructuring : Applications in Nonlinear Structural Dynamics
Sammanfattning : A structural design process typically involves various load cases for which a sufficient load-bearing capacity must be demonstrated. In addition to static load cases, a verification of dynamic loads, such as blast and impact loading, may be required. LÄS MER
10. Phase stability and physical properties of nanolaminated materials from first principles
Sammanfattning : The MAX phase family is a set of nanolaminated, hexagonal materials typically comprised of three elements: a transition metal (M), an A-group element (A), and carbon and/or nitrogen (X). In this thesis, first-principles based methods have been used to investigate the phase stability and physical properties of a number of MAX and MAX-like phases. LÄS MER
