1. Design of a Bistable Origami Stent with Pneumatic Actuation
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : What if stents could be easier removed when complications arise or removed once theirjob has been done? No matter how perfect a stent design becomes, the fundamental issueis that a foreign object in the body under extended periods eventually will cause devicedegradation and complications. So instead of making a long-term solution of a perfectstent, the focus in this paper is redirected from expensive materials to a simple design,with simple materials. READ MORE

2. Transient Dynamics and Core Tunneling in Vertical Spin-Vortex Pairs
University essay from KTH/NanostrukturfysikAbstract : Spin-vortices in vertically spaced pairs of thin elliptical Permalloy nanoparticles are investigated. The two vortex cores with parallel out-of-plane magnetization exhibit a strong monopole-like attraction through the spacer much thinner than the core length, thus forming a bound core-core pair.

3. Robustness Analysis of MAPK Signaling Cascades
University essay from KTH/ReglerteknikAbstract : The MAPK cascade is responsible for transmitting information in the cytoplasm of the cell and regulating important fate decisions like cell division and apoptosis. Due to scarce experimental data and limited knowledge about many complex biochemical processes, existing MAPK pathway models, which exhibit bistability, have a significant structural uncertainty.
