  1. 16. Probabilistic Least-violating Control Strategy Synthesis with Safety Rules

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Ludvig Janiuk; Johan Sjölén; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : We consider the problem of automatic control strategy synthesis for discrete models of robotic systems, where the goal is to travel from some region to another while obeying a given set of safety rules in an environment with uncertain properties. This is a probabilistic extension of the work by Jana Tumová et al. READ MORE

  3. 17. Constructing supported lipid bilayers from native cell membranes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Tommy Dam; [2018]
    Keywords : T cells; Model membrane systems; Supported lipid bilayers; SLB; biophysical chemistry; biofysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The aim of this MSc-project was to investigate whether it is possible to incorporate native cell membrane components from Jurkat T cells into supported lipid bilayers, SLBs, to produce a model membrane system better resembling the native cell membranes in T cells. The procedure of forming native-like SLBs (nSLB) was adapted from an existing protocol and is done through the deposition of hybrid vesicles onto a cleaned glass slide. READ MORE
