  1. 11. Metabolic communication between individual yeast cells

    Författare :Martin Mojica Benavides; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metabolic synchronization; Single-cell; glycolytic oscillations; synchronization waves;

    Sammanfattning : With the recent progress in sensitive cell manipulation and microfabrication techniques, glycolytic oscillations in yeast have been observed at a single-cell level. It was shown that individually, oscillating cells could entrain their phases by periodic external perturbations. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :embedded; piezoceramic; piezoelectric; transducer; composite; structural; integrity; health monitoring; damage detection; Lamb waves; wavelets; normal-mode expansion; FE-method; SLMT;

    Sammanfattning : The objectives of the thesis work were to study theinteraction between embedded piezoceramic transducers andcomposite structures as well as determine techniques tosimplify the Lamb waves analysis. Firstly, this studyconsidered the design of the embedded piezoceramic transducers. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Asymptotic methods applied to some oceanography-related problems

    Författare :Moundheur Zarroug; Jonas Nycander; Kristofer Döös; Jan Erik Weber; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymptotic analysis; internal waves; geophysical fluid dynamics; thermal oscillator; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Oceanography; Oceanografi; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis a number of issues related to oceanographic problems have been dealt with on the basis of applying asymptotic methods.  The first study focused on the tidal generation of internal waves, a process which is quantifed by the conversion rates. These have traditionally been calculated by using the WKB approximation. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Acoustic Standing Wave Manipulation of Particles and Cells in Microfluidic Chips

    Författare :Andreas Lenshof; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic particle manipulation; separation; ultrasound; cell handling; particle handling; lab on a chip; Microsystem technology; microfluidics; standing waves;

    Sammanfattning : The rise of MEMS and µTAS techniques has created a whole new family of microfluidic devices for a wide range of chemical and biomedical analyses to be performed on small Lab-on-a-chip platforms. The operations often include small samples of particle or cell suspensions on which separation, mixing, trapping or sorting is performed. LÄS MER
