Abstract:
Free electron lasers (FELs) are state of the art in terms of generating light pulses. By using free electrons as lasing medium, FELs provide tunable radiation in the infrared to X-rays wavelength range and on the femtosecond timescale. Their use in biology, chemistry and materials science allows for the probing of dynamic processes at levels never reached before. In order to design the new generation of FELs, a bright and low emittance electron beam must be generated from the photocathode. For this reason widespread experimental and computational efforts are taking place worldwide in order to

Abstract:
Neutral molecular radicals have received increasing attention as building blocks for functional molecular materials owing to their intrinsic conductive and magnetic properties. However, for these systems to be technologically viable, the molecular framework must be capable of stabilizing the unpaired electron, but also enable a degree of control and modulation of the desired properties. To achieve these goals, the design of the radical template requires consideration of the intrinsic effects on the electronic structure and those from a supramolecular perspective. In that regard, thiazyl radica

However, materials are not only important for understanding light in architecture, but also in product design since all objects within a space contribute to its visual character and spatial appearance. This study investigates differences in optical properties of a selection of materials often found in Scandinavian domestic environments. It also explores and discusses the main question of how, in the process of designing a luminaire, product and lighting designers could m

Abstract:
Previous research worldwide has shown that curriculum materials maintain a strong presence and constitute an important tool, artefact, in mathematics classrooms. Yet, there is a vast lack of research on the design and the characteristics of teacher guides. The thesis aims to: 1) investigate the features of the Finnish teacher guides for mathematics at primary school and 2) map the cultural specificities and norms for classroom practices as construed in Finnish teacher guides. The data consist of nine Finnish teacher guides in mathematics (belonging to three textbook series) for Grades 1-6 and

Abstract:
Ce travail a consisté à préparer des matériaux silicatés poreux à caractère stimuli-sensible à base de nanoparticules lipidiques solides (SLN) et de tensioactifs magnétiques. Plusieurs systèmes à base de tensioactifs ont été utilisés afin de synthétiser des matériaux silicatés à porosité contrôlée en utilisant des méthodes décrites dans la littérature ou mises au point au laboratoire. De différents caractères stimuli-sensible ont été introduits dans les matériaux silicatés poreux en fonction de système utilisé: les nanoparticules lipidiques solides (SLN) pour les matériaux sensible au pH et le

Full text
Abstract:
In cases of compromised bone remodeling like osteoporosis, insufficient osseointegration occurs and results in implant failure. Implant retention relies on proper secondary fixation, which is developed during bone remodeling. This process is disrupted in metastatic bone diseases like osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is characterized low bone mass and bone strength resulting from either accelerated osteoclast-mediated bone resorption or impaired osteoblast-mediated bone formation. These two processes are not independent phenomena. In fact, osteoporosis can be viewed as a breakdown of the cellular com

Abstract:
Progress in biomedicine requires the design of functional biomaterials, in particular, 3-dimensional (3D) scaffolds. Shear thinning, β-sheet based peptide hydrogels have attracted wide interest due to their potential use in tissue engineering and biomedical applications as 3D functional scaffolds. The emergence of carbon nanomaterials has also opened the door for the construction of increasingly functional hybrid hydrogels built from nanofibres and graphene-based materials using non-covalent physical interactions. The relationship between peptide molecular structure and the formed hydrogel is
