11. Quality Control in Aluminium Profiles : Non-destructive Methods using Non-linear Ultrasonic
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknikAbstract : When aluminium profiles are manufactured, defects may arise, especially when theprofiles are manufactured through extrusion. During the extrusion process, thesedefects occur on parts of the extruded material because of contaminates that needto be found. READ MORE

12. Development of Reliability Test Rigs for Total Artificial Heart Pumps
University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystemAbstract : The long-term performance of TAH pumps needs to be demonstrated. Reliability tests are performed to measure its ability to operate for months, or years, without failure. Real Heart is currently constructing test rigs for this purpose. Software for documenting test rig conditions is also required. READ MORE

13. Pushing the boundaries of acoustic particle separation: achieving high-throughput, avoiding spillover effects, investigating the effects of the particle concentration, and measuring acoustic properties
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : Acoustophoresis, i.e., the contactless manipulation of small cells or particles via acoustic waves is a gentle and label-free method that can, amongst others, be used to isolate rare cells such as circulating tumor cells from blood. To isolate enough cells, a large amount of sample needs to be processed in a reasonable amount of time. READ MORE

15. Design and Development of a Data Acquisition and Communication System for Point Absorber Tracking
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknikAbstract : The recent trend in generating energy from the waves has led to several advancements in the methods and the various research is conducted across the world, to study the behaviour of point absorbers on the waves. The point absorbers such as wave buoys are designed to move according to the waves and the generator that is mechanically coupled with the buoys, generate electricity. READ MORE
