  1. 11. Energy analysis for sustainable mega-cities

    Författare :Aumnad Phdungsilp; Björn Palm; Ivo Martinac; Charles Heaps; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Asian mega-cities; energy demand; metabolism of cities; energy modeling; sustainable energy; energy planning; multi-criteria decision-making; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Cities throughout Asia have experienced unprecedented economic development over the past decades. In many cases this has contributed to their rapid and uncontrolled growth, which has resulted in a multiplicity of problems, including rapid population increase, enhanced environmental pollution, collapsing traffic systems, dysfunctional waste management, and rapid increases in the consumption of energy, water and other resources.

  3. 12. Advancing Metabolic Engineering through Combination of Systems Biology and Adaptive Evolution

    Författare :Kuk-ki Hong; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metabolic engineering; galactose utilization; systems biology; Ras PKA signaling pathway; evolutionary engineering; pleiotropy of evolutionary strategies;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding evolutionary strategies of microorganisms may provide opportunities foradvanced strain development with the aim to produce valuable bio-products from renewablebiomass resources. Through evolutionary processes, microorganisms can attain new traitsassociated with genetic changes that may be useful for the construction of improved strains. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Perturbation-based Control of Industrial Fed-batch Bioprocesses

    Författare :Ola Johnsson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; perturbation-based control; process control; fed-batch control; industrial bioprocesses;

    Sammanfattning : The topic of this thesis is bioprocess control, more specifically control of industrial-scale microbial fed-batch bioprocesses. Its focus is therefore on methods which are easy to implement in an industrial setting, which gives certain limitations on sensors, actuators and control systems. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Modeling and Prediction in Diabetes Physiology

    Författare :Marzia Cescon; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by the inability of the organism to autonomously regulate the blood glucose levels. It requires continuing medical care to prevent acute complications and to reduce the risk of long-term complications. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Oxygen content in semi-closed rebreathing apparatuses for underwater use : Measurements and modeling

    Författare :Oskar Frånberg; Ola Eiken; Mikael Gennser; Lars-Åke Brodin; John Clarke; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diving; rebreather; underwater breathing apparatus; unmanned testing; hyperbaric; metabolic simulator; scuba; semi-closed; Medicinsk teknologi; Medical Technology;

    Sammanfattning : The present series of unmanned hyperbaric tests were conducted in order to investigate the oxygen fraction variability in semi-closed underwater rebreathing apparatuses. The tested rebreathers were RB80 (Halcyon dive systems, High springs, FL, USA), IS-Mix (Interspiro AB, Stockholm, Sweden), CRABE (Aqua Lung, Carros Cedex, France), and Viper+ (Cobham plc, Davenport, IA, USA).
