  1. 11. Skeletal Muscle Mass & Function in Older Women : Health-Enhancing Influences of Combined Resistance Exercise & Diet

    Författare :Emelie Strandberg; Fawzi Kadi; Elodie Ponsot; Carl-Johan Sundberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Healthy ageing; Chronic inflammation; C-reactive protein; Omega-3 fatty acids; Resistance training; Physical function;

    Sammanfattning : Ageing is accompanied by a progressive decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength which may lead to impaired ability to perform activities of daily living in older adults. Although the exact cause of the gradual decline in muscle mass is unknown, identifying efficient strategies aiming to prevent age-related loss of muscle mass and strength is important in order to promote healthy ageing.

  3. 12. Adsorption and Mass Transport in Zeolite Membranes

    Författare :Mojtaba Nobandegani; Jonas Hedlund; Niklas Hedin; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kemisk teknologi; Chemical Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Zeolites are commonly used as adsorbents and catalysts in the industry due to their well-defined pores of molecular dimensions. Zeolites offer porous structure, which consists of interlinked alumina and silica tetrahedra with shared oxygen atoms. LÄS MER

  4. 13. The mechanisms controlling heat and mass transfer on frying of beefburgers

    Författare :Bea Kovácsné Oroszvári; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Livsmedelsteknik; Food and drink technology; permeability; porosity; contraction; frying; beefburger; heat and mass transfer;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present work was to gain better understanding of the mechanisms controlling heat and mass transfer during thermal processing of beefburgers. The effects of different factors such as the chemical composition and comminution of the meat raw material, the pan temperature and the meat patty diameter on the characteristics of heat and mass transfer were studied.

  5. 14. Long-term effects of growth hormone replacement therapy in growth hormone deficient adults

    Författare :Galina Götherström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :growth hormone; body composition; bone mass; bone density; muscle strength; lipids; glucose metabolism; adult onset GHD; childhood onset GHD; gender;

    Sammanfattning : Deficiency of growth hormone (GHD) in adults results in abnormal body composition, reduced bone mass and muscle strength, deteriorated cardiovascular risk factors. Short-term GH replacement reverses many of the symptoms associated with adult GHD. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Investigation of a prototype industrial gas turbine combustor using alternative gaseous fuels

    Författare :Ivan Sigfrid; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; Gas Turbine; Laminar flame speed; Stretch; Lean blowout; Emissions;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the effect of alternative gaseous fuels, with high hydrogen content and lower calorific value, on gas turbine combustion was investigated experimentally. The aim of the investigation was to find operational limitations for an experimental burner and to supply data for validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). LÄS MER
