1. 1. Developing a method for insertion of soft neural probes into peripheral nerves

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Laboratoriet för organisk elektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

   Author : Klara Melander; [2022]
   Keywords : Intraneural stimulation; insertion method; peripheral nerve; nerve phantom; peripheral nerve stimulation; Teknisk biologi; Teknisk biologi;

   Abstract : The main objective of this project was to develop a method for soft neural probe insertion into a nerve. These soft probes are made of a silicon elastomer that is a few orders of magnitude less stiff than the nerve, which makes the insertion process particularly challenging. READ MORE

3. 2. Regaining Sense of Touch: Artificial, Pressure-sensitive Skin for Hand Prosthetics

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Axel Ekman; [2016]
   Keywords : Biomedical Engineering; Prostheses; Artificial Skin; Arduino; Haptic Feedback; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A large portion of upper-limb prosthesis users are known to defer the use of electronic prostheses due to their high cost, considerable weight and lack of durability. Within this thesis, an approach to simple, low-cost pressure feedback systems is made. READ MORE

4. 3. Design of a solvent recovery system in a pharmaceutical manufacturing plant

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

   Author : SHASHANK BHANDARI; [2016]
   Keywords : Batch distillation; liquid-liquid extraction; pressure swing distillation; pharmaceutical manufacturing; sustainable development;

   Abstract : Solvents play a crucial role in the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturing and are used in large quantities. Most of the industries incinerate the waste solvents or send it to waste management companies for destruction to avoid waste handling and cross-contamination. READ MORE

5. 4. Rip off and characterization of nanowire ensembles for photovoltaic applications

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik

   Author : Seyed Alireza Abrand Abadizadeh; [2014]
   Keywords : nanowire; solar cell; PDMS; flexible film; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The main aim of this project was to peel off the epitaxially grown nanowires (NWs) from their native substrate and transfer them to the cheaper carrier substrate in order to make solar cell device from transferred NWs. Potentially the peeling and transferring idea is about to decrease the cost of NWs growth by reusing the native substrate especially for expensive material such as InP and GaAs which are suitable materials for single junction solar cell.

6. 5. A process recipe for bonding a silicone membrane to a plastic substrate

   University essay from Institutionen för teknikvetenskaper

   Author : Linus Schönström; Anna Nordh; Anton Strignert; Frida Lemel; Jakob Ekengard; Sofie Wallin; Zargham Jabri; [2013]
   Keywords : bonding silicone; corona surface treater; SiO2 coating; thermoplastic substrate; PVD temperature; PDMS membrane; spin-coating; thickness measurements; microfluidic systems; bonding PDMS; silicon dioxide coating; spin-cast; silicone membrane; PDMS; polydimethylsiloxane; poly dimethylsiloxane ; silicon dioxide PVD; SiO2 PVD; silicon dioxide evaporation; SiO2 evaporation; thickness of a thin film; silicon dioxide deposition; SiO2 deposition; adhesion testing; cycloolefincopolymer; cycloolefinpolymer; cyclic olefin copolymer; cyclic olefin polymer; COC; COP; plasma surface treater; surface activator; surface oxidizer;

   Abstract : A spin-cast silicone membrane has been successfully bonded between two injection-molded microstructured plastic discs. This sandwich structure creates a useful platform for mass production of microfluidic systems, provided that the bonds are leakproof. READ MORE
