  1. 6. Measuring Acoustic Mobility of Particles by Particle Tracking Velocimetry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Alexander Edthofer; [2022]
    Keywords : acoustophoresis; microfluidics; polystyrene; cells; particle tracking velocimetry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Acoustophoresis is a method to manipulate and move cells or particles suspended in a medium using acoustic waves. The speed of the acoustophoretic motion depends on the cells' acoustic mobility, i.e. their size, density and compressibility relative to the medium. READ MORE

  3. 7. Electrochemical behavior of conducting polymers

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Raghda Kalifa; [2022]
    Keywords : Cathodic protection; conducting polymers; conductivity; structure; compression; Katodiskt skydd; ledande polymerer; konduktivitet; struktur; kompression;

    Abstract : Ett stort industriellt problem när det gäller metalliska material är korrosion. En metod för att förhindra korrosion är genom en elektrokemisk process som kallas katodiskt skydd vilket kan utföras på två olika sätt: Katodiskt korrosionsskydd med påtryckt ström (ICCP) eller offeranod (SACP).

  4. 8. Synthetic gel particle formation for acoustofluidic applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Thibaut Valery; [2022]
    Keywords : agarose gel particles; acoustofluidics; droplet generation; microfluidic chip; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Cancer cell detection by particle sorting systems is a very challenging field which could help to discover cancers at an earlier stage. Acoustophoresis used as a particle sorting system is based on the difference between the acoustic properties of particles and the medium. READ MORE

  5. 9. Characterization of PLA Nanoplastics, and Their Effects on Daphnia magna

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Melinda Rydberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Polylactic acid; Polylactide; PLA; Nanoplastic; Daphnia magna; Toxicity; Polymer Technology; Chemistry; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : As plastic pollution in aquatic environments keeps happening it has become more and more important to learn more about nanoparticles. Bio-based and biologically degradable plastics, such as polylactic acid (PLA), are gaining popularity and it is therefore important to determine whether they break down into nanoplastics or not.

  6. 10. Economic and environmental optimization of deep energy renovation strategies for an office building in Sweden

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Eva Sauterleute; [2022]
    Keywords : Life Cycle Analysis LCA ; Global warming potential GWP ; Life Cycle Costs LCC ; Building Energy Simulation; Building Energy Renovation; Insulation Materials; OneclickLCA; IDA ICE; Livscykelanalys LCA ; global uppvärmningspotential GWP ; livscykelkostnader LCC ; energisimulering av byggnader; energirenovering av byggnader; isoleringsmaterial; One Click LCA; IDA ICE;

    Abstract : Energy efficiency of the building sector is a key strategy to achieve national climate goals in Sweden and other European countries. In this thesis, several renovation scenarios for a case study office building in Sweden are analysed and compared based on their energy performance, environmental impacts, and economic costs from a life cycle perspective.
