  1. 6. Life cycle assessment on sodium-ion cells for energy storage systems : A cradle-to-gate study including 16 environmental perspectives, focusing on climate change impact

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rebecca Nibelius; [2023]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; Life cycle assessment; Cradle-to-gate; Natriumbatterier; Livscykelanalys; Vagga-till-port;

    Abstract : Because of the changing energy supply landscape, with the transition towards renewable energy, an emerging demand for energy storage systems (ESS) is expected in the near future. Battery energy storage is promising to contribute to mitigate the greenhouse gas emissions, but face issues considering resource use (IEA, 2023; IRENA, 2022). READ MORE

  3. 7. Effects of stratospheric wildfire smoke on ozone depleting substances and ozone levels in the northern midlatitudes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Christopher Grüner; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The goal of this project was to examine whether there are correlations between recent wildfires in the northern hemisphere and stratospheric ozone anomalies in the midlatitudes following the creation of ozone depleting substances. To achieve this goal, data from the Aura satellite's Microwave Limb Sounder instrument was used and processed with self-written Python scripts. READ MORE

  4. 8. Acquired and lost structure-functions of non-enveloped and enveloped viruses

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Diogo Filipe; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Viruses are biological entities that constantly affect the world around us and in many cases they can harm the health of humans and negatively impact food production, in agriculture andfisheries. The project concept is that, through the structural studies of viruses that infectsimple hosts, it is possible to point out structural features that are unique and conserved inviruses, that infect human, other animals, and crops, in the same phylogenetic lineage.

  5. 9. Design improvements for an Organ-on-chip system : Implementation and evaluation of a bubble trap

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Albin Jonasson; Linnéa Soto Carlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Organ-on-chip; Microfluidics; Lab-on-chip; Lab-on-a-chip; bubble trap; epithelial; endothelial; cells; biomedical engineering; chip; TEER; Mikrofluidik; labb-på-chip; organ-på-chip; medicinsk teknik; medicinteknik; TEER; bubbelfälla; epitelceller; endotelceller;

    Abstract : The field of organ-on-chip is a relatively new area of research and builds upon the principle of engineering microfluidic systems to mimic the body’s internal environment as precisely as possible. Eventually these models could hopefully simulate whole organ-systems and enable the examination of the cell’s or organ’s reaction to foreign substances like new pharmaceuticals in a better way than current models.

  6. 10. Dynamic Modelling of the Patient Circuit for High Frequency Ventilation

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Samuel Eriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : Mechanical ventilation; high frequency ventilation; patient circuit dynamics; parameter estimation; system identification; Mekanisk ventilation; högfrekvent ventilation; patientkretsens dynamik; parameterestimering; systemidentifiering;

    Abstract : Artificial breathing is vital when it comes to treatment of critically ill patients where the natural breathing mechanism is insufficient. With the help of mechanical ventilators, the natural breathing mechanism of the patient can be assisted or even exchanged with the artificial breathing from the machine. READ MORE
