  1. 31. Betydelsen av hästens hud och päls för reglering av kroppstemperatur i kyla – vad händer vid klippning och täckning?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Li Ekblom; [2013]
    Keywords : häst; hud; kallt klimat; temperaturreglering; horse; skin; cold climate; temperature adjustment;

    Abstract : The horse is a homeothermic animal and to keep a constant body temperature in winter season is important. Acclimatisation is to provide means for a good thermal insulation consisting of skin, hair, and an outer air layer. READ MORE

  3. 32. Simulation of Tri-generation Systems with application of optimization

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Javier Galvan; [2012]
    Keywords : tri-generation; supermarkets; primary energy savings; optimization; evolutionary algorithms; energy efficiency; cogeneration; Trnsys; Tri-generación; supermercados; ahorro de energía primaria; optimización; eficiencia energética; cogeneracion; Trnsys;

    Abstract : Despite the fact that cogeneration (CHP) and tri-generation (CHCP) are among the most efficient ways to produce electricity and thermal energy, there is still some unexploited potential for these techniques. One could say that the circumstances for using these techniques are better now than ever. READ MORE

  4. 33. Exploring the effects of platinum compounds on RNA, adduct formation, thermal melting properties and siRNA down regulation capacity of gene targets associated

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Alak Al Shiekh; [2012]
    Keywords : Proteinvetenskap; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Since its discovery, RNA interference (RNAi) has turned into an invaluable research tool for regulating gene expression. Furthermore, this naturally occurring phenomenon in mammalian cells is of interest in cancer research, both as a possible therapeutic approach and a target for cancer treatment. READ MORE

    Abstract : Energy usage deriving from human activities is increasing day by day acting against the quality of the environment and the sustainable use of natural resources. The major impact of these actions is reflected on the quality of daily life. READ MORE

  6. 35. Simulation of radio-frequency ablation of liver tumors : Development of a power regulation model and comparison with microwave ablation

    University essay from Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Chiara Sammartano; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Local therapy with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an important method for treating liver tumors mostly in early stage, which has been increasingly used in recent years. RFA utilizes an RF current that is applied to the target tissue through an electrode connected with a power generator and percutaneously inserted into the tumor; the electrode power causes the tissue temperature rise required for destroying cancer cells.
