The purpose was to estimate the thermal potential to multi-stage a combined heat and power boiler by integration therein of a communicating gasification reactor, which utiliz

Aqueous Polymeric Coating for Orally Disintegrating Lozenges

Många av oss äter dagligen läkemedel i tablettform, men vad innehåller egentligen en tablett, förutom den aktiva ingrediensen? Och hur vet man om de andra ingredienserna passar ihop när man gör tabletten? I ett projekt under våren har olika polymerer testats för filmdragering av en tablett som löser upp sig i munnen.Polymeric film coating is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a way of improving the features of a dosage form. Common polymers used for pharmaceutical coating are hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Coatings can have various benefits, one being protection of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). For a dosage form to be stable, it is necessary that e

The role of CTCF and cohesin in high hyperdiploid childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Chromosome defects in high hyperdiploid childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a type of blood cancer that affects both adults and children. While human cells normally harbor 46 chromosomes, the leukemic cells of the high hyperdiploid subgroup (HeH) of childhood ALL presents 51-67 chromosomes, where the extra chromosomes are generally X, 4, 6, 10, 14, 17, 18

Transient Plasma Photonic Crystals - A Route Towards Slow Ultra-intense Light?

Långsamma pulser är intressanta för acceleration av till exempel protoner. Protoner som accelereras till höga hastigheter kan i förlängningen användas till mer skonsam behandling av cancer, där en större del av energin dödar cancercellerna istället för friska celler runt om. Det är emellertid mycket svårt att få protoner att färdas i de hastigheter som krävs. Konventionella partikelacceleratorer äPeriodic electron and ion density modulations in near critical density plasmas induced by counterpropagating femtosecond pulses of intensities on the order of 10¹⁵ to 10¹⁶ Wcm⁻² are described in a linear and stationary regime and investigated using particle-in-cell simulations in one and two dimensions. The periodic gratings produce transient plasma photonic crystals lasting up to several picoseco

Spatio -Temporal Modelling of Air Pollution in Malta

Air pollution has become a major worldwide concern due to the high levels of air pollutants emitted from industrial and traffic related activities. Exposure to air pollution has been linked to various negative health effects, ranging from asthma to chronic illnesses. Consequently, analyzing air pollution data has become an essential tool for giving insight about the potential health effects. Spati

Multi-scale modelling of fire in accelerator tunnels: a CERN case study

Multi-scale modelling is a novel approach to fire modelling in situations where the size of the domain prevents it from being modelled completely in 3D. By splitting the domain in a 1D and 3D portion multi-scale modelling allows for much faster simulations which still adhere to the correct boundary conditions. In this thesis the multi-scale methodology is applied to the LHC accelerator in use at C

A Case Study to Investigate how Beta Product Marketing can Test the Validity of a Product’s Market Potential

Många entreprenörer och startup kommer till en punkt när de har slutfört utvecklingen av en produkt men flyttar sedan till den fas som är avgörande för en produkts framgång, marknadsföringsbiten. Stora investeringskostnader i kombination med osäkerheten om den utvecklade produktens marknadsvärde är orsaken till många produkters misslyckanden. Detta leder till att många nya produkter aldrig når marMany entrepreneurs and start-ups come to the point when they have finished the development of a product but then moves to the phase which is crucial for a products success, the marketing effort. Large investment costs combined with the uncertainty of the developed product's market value is the reason for many products failure. Thus, many new products never reach the market because of the lack
