  1. 6. Glucose Sensing and Differentiating Systems with Organic Electrochemical Neurons : A Future Outlook for Type 2 Diabetes

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Sophie Ziske; [2024]
    Keywords : organic electronics; organic electrochemical neuron; organic electrochemical transistor; type 2 diabetes; closed-loop system; Axon-Hillock neuron; astable multivibrator; vagus nerve stimulation; glucose sensing and differentiation; applied physics; biomedical engineering; electronics;

    Abstract : In recent years great advances in the field of biomedical engineering and organic electronics have been achieved. One promising application would be the regulation of blood glucose concentration in type 2 diabetes patients. This application would eliminate medication and would improve the standard of life.

  2. 7. Gravitational Collapse of a Massless Scalar Field in a Theory of Minimally Modified Gravity

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Atabak Fathe Jalali; [2024]
    Keywords : Theoretical physics; astrophysics; modified gravity; minimally modified gravity; gravitational collapse; VCDM; scalar collapse; apparent horizon; numerical relativity; Teoretisk fysik; astrofysik; modifierad gravitation; minimalt modifierad gravitation; gravitationskollaps; VCDM; skalär kollaps; uppenbar horisont; numerisk relativitet;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field in a minimally modified gravity theory denoted VCDM (V replaces $\Lambda$ in the $\Lambda$CDM abbreviation), a class of theories propagating the same degrees of freedom as general relativity at the expense of broken 4D diffeomorphism invariance. Numerical evolution of the equations of motion reveals that for small initial scalar profile amplitudes, no black hole forms from the collapse. READ MORE

  3. 8. Establishing High-Temperature Models for Leakage Current in Gated Lateral Bipolar Junction Transistors

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Jimmy Atterstig; [2024]
    Keywords : Electronics; leakage current; brokaw bandgap; semiconductor physics; gauss-newton;

    Abstract : Power-efficient circuits are a vital step in moving towards a greener future. Battery life can get substantially improved by decreasing the amount of power a circuit needs. Lower power also leads to less excess heat generated. READ MORE

  4. 9. Exploring the effects of pressure on the magnetic properties of quasi-low dimensional quantum magnets via thermodynamic measurements

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

    Author : Emelie Zhu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Four model solid state compounds were used to experimentally investigate the effects of pressure on the interactions in one- and two-dimensional Heisenberg magnetic models. BaCuSi2O6, BaCu2V2O8, SrCuO2 and CuGeO3 were successfully synthesized via solid-state reactions and characterized via x-ray diffraction. READ MORE

  5. 10. Learning a Grasp Prediction Model for Forestry Applications

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Elias Olofsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Forwarder; Autonomous grasping; Deep learning; Multibody dynamics; Convolutional neural network;

    Abstract : Since the advent of machine learning and machine vision methods, progress has been made in tackling the long-standing research question of autonomous grasping of arbitrary objects using robotic end-effectors. Building on these efforts, we focus on a subset of the general grasping problem concerning the automation of a forwarder. READ MORE
