  1. 1. Design and engineering of light-driven dynamic films for bioelectronic interfacing

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Luca Terenzi; [2023]
    Keywords : Conductive polymers; Stimuli responsive materials; Azopolymers; Cell-chip coupling; Bioelectronics; Konduktiva polymerer; Stimuli-känsliga material; Azopolymerer; Cell-chip-koppling; Bioelektronik;

    Abstract : In the realm of neuroelectronics, the challenge lies in achieving finer observations of physiological processes to comprehend neuronal interactions and computations. This necessitates the development of more compliant and biomimetic interfaces for improved integration with biological tissues, enabling finer physiological process observations. READ MORE

  3. 2. Effect of Touch on Cotton and Maize : influence on plant morphology and feeding preference in Spodoptera littoralis

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Anna Magnusson; [2022]
    Keywords : Mechanical stimuli; cotton; maize; thigmomorphogenesis; Spodoptera littoralis; induced defence; plant-plant interaction;

    Abstract : Plants are constantly exposed to touch and mechanical stimuli in natural environments, from rain, wind, animals and plant neighbours. However, current knowledge and understanding of how touch physiologically affects plants are limited. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mekanisk drivning vid slakt och dess effekt på nötkreaturens (Bos taurus) beteende

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Denice Lodnert; [2018]
    Keywords : nötkreatur; stressbeteenden; slakt; mekanisk drivning;

    Abstract : The Swedish human population´s beef consumption is high and in recent years, more consumers have gained insight regarding obtained values when buying meat produced in Sweden. With an increased awareness, the demands on meat production also increases. Slaughter is a part of the meat production where the risk of impaired animal welfare is present. READ MORE

  5. 4. Robot mimicking human eye movements to test eye tracking devices

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : JENNIFER TANNFELT WU; [2018]
    Keywords : Robot eyes; eye tracking; testing robot; humanoid eyes; saccade trajectory planning;

    Abstract : Testing of eye tracking devices is done by humans looking at well defined stimuli. This way of testing eye trackers is not accurate enough because of human errors. The goal of this thesis is to design and construct reliable robotic eyes that can mimic the behaviour of human eyes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Towards stimuli-reformable paperboard and flipped classroom in chemistry education : A study of how to create a paper with controllable mechanical properties and a study in how the flipped classroom is used in chemistry education

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskaplig kommunikation och lärande (ECE)

    Author : David Pettersson; [2017]
    Keywords : Alginate; Cationic cellulose nanofibrils; Cross-linking; Dialcohol cellulose;

    Abstract : Today, paper and paperboard is an important part of the packaging industry, as well as natural part of our daily lives. The alternatives to paper and paperboard is often produced from nonrenewable sources such as petroleum and as demands on sustainability increase in the packaging sector, it gives paper a desirable advantage over plastics.
