  1. 1. Increasing the diodicity of ceramic Tesla valves by exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing : A study in design optimizations of Tesla valves for ceramic 3D printing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Udit Sharma; [2024]
    Keywords : additive; manufacturing; Tesla; valve; ceramic; 3D; printing;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis was conducted at Uppsala University and at Fraunhofer IKTS, Dresden. The thesis aims to study design optimizations for increasing the diodicity and thereby performance of a Tesla valve, a type of “no moving parts” (NMP) valve, through design freedoms offered by ceramic additive manufacturing.

  3. 2. Multibody simulations of vibrations in a truck’s steering system

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Marcus Didenbäck; [2023]
    Keywords : Multibody simulation; Vibrations; Stiff differential equations; Equations of motion; Lagrange; Vehicle dynamics; Adams; Flerkroppssimulering; Vibrationer; Styva differentialekvationer; Rörelseekva-tioner; Lagrange; Fordonsdynamik; Adams;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to explore if multibody simulations is a suitable method to investigate vibrations in the steering system of trucks. Vibrations in the steering system and subsequently in the steering wheel is a common issue that automotive manufacturers face. READ MORE

  4. 3. Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Human Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Gripvall; [2023]
    Keywords : biochemistry; complex; MPC; proteoliposomes; pyruvate; transport; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The metabolism of pyruvate in the cell is abnormally regulated in several human diseases, such as type-II diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, in which the human mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (HuMPC) sits at a pivotal point. It transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and consists of two proteins, MPC1 and MPC2, and is a potential drug target against these diseases. READ MORE

  5. 4. Mathematical modelling of microvascular oxygen transport and the impact of blood pressure

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Siri Walmstedt; [2023]
    Keywords : Mathematical modelling; Microcirculation; Oxygen transport; Blood pressure; Hypertension; Systems biology;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death worldwide. There are known risk factorsfor cardiovascular diseases, such as high blood pressure, and it is also known that cardiovasculardiseases are associated with both the macrocirculation and the microcirculation.

  6. 5. Using a social registry to assess household social vulnerability to natural hazards in Malawi

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Author : Petter Sundqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Household Social Vulnerability Index; Principal Component Analysis; Vulnerability Map; Natural Hazards; Disaster Risk Management; Flood Vulnerability; Social Registry; United Beneficiary Registry; Malawi; Nsanje;

    Abstract : Social factors moderate the impacts of natural hazards, which means that households are affected differently when exposed to the same hazard. This differential impact of hazards can be explained by the concept of social vulnerability, which is commonly assessed to inform disaster preparedness and response action. READ MORE
