A systems biology approach to integrated molecular analysis in pancreatic and periampullary adenocarcinoma
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;2, Doctoral thesis, 2016-04-13)Pancreatic and periampullary adenocarcinoma (PA) is a highly lethal disease, for which the mortality rate closely parallels the incidence rate. Most of the PA patients remain asymptomatic until the disease reaches an ... -
One-step Conversion of Ethylene to Propylene by a NiSO₄-ReO x/γ-A1₂O₃ Catalyst
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;4, Doctoral thesis, 2016-06-22)The demand for propylene has dramatically increased due to the discovery of propylene’s derivatives (e.g. polypropylene). The propylene production from the conventional processes (steam cracking process and a refinery fluid ... -
The development of a miniaturized hydration sensor based on the principle of osmotic pressure
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;9, Doctoral thesis, 2017)The thesis presents a novel hydration sensor that employs osmotic pressure to detectde‐ and overhydration in body fluids. This sensor could be used to measure different levels of hydration in an organism, e.g. the human ... -
High-stability piezoresistive pressure sensors
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;25, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Piezoresistive pressure sensors have been in use for decades and are among the most successful micromachined sensors. From their introduction in the 1960s, they have experienced a dramatic improvement on performance and ... -
Design of a bidirectional front-end for resonating sensors
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;27, Doctoral thesis, 2017)In the last decades, the use of electronic sensors in portable applications became increasingly common. They provide a simple way to study processes, monitor envi-ronment conditions or to provide hazard systems. In order ... -
Environmental microorganisms: microsystem approaches to separation and analysis
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;16, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Three technologies were tested in this PhD project, all of which have potential for use in micro systems for environmental analyses: The Trilobite® technology for particle separation and purification, the analysis technique ... -
Air-coupled ultrasound for plate thickness measurements
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;18, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Non-destructive testing using ultrasound is well established as a technique of inspecting miscellaneous structures and components. Ultrasonic waves propagating in an elastic solid are sensitive to both the material and ... -
On the old and the new: An ethnographic study of older people’s mental health services in a changing welfare state
(Doctoral thesis, 2017)The Norwegian welfare state is traditionally known as universalistic. Thus, it might be expected that public healthcare services would cover all citizens on equal terms. Yet older people with mental health problems are not ... -
The importance of helpful help in mental health crises : Experiences, stories, and contexts – A qualitative exploration
(Doctoral thesis, 2017)The main aim of this thesis was to explore experiences of helpful help in mental health crises within the context of crisis resolution teams (CRTs). Helpful help has been explored from three different perspectives: 1) ... -
Observing animal behaviour and movement patterns remotely: A case study using bio-logging technology on free-ranging Eurasian beavers (Castor fiber)
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;10, Doctoral thesis, 2017-02-24)Understanding animal behaviour is a fundamental part of biology and has been revolutionized by the invention of bio-logging units, which can be used to study wild animals in their natural habitats. In this thesis, tri-axial ... -
Natural and human-induced impacts on the genetic structure of Eurasian reindeer
(Doctoral dissertations at the University College of Southeast Norway;11, Doctoral thesis, 2017-03-17)Geografisk variasjon hos arter og populasjoner er basert på genetisk variasjon, som videre er grunnleggende for naturstyrt evolusjon. Genetisk variasjon og struktur er styrt av faktorer som mutasjoner, seleksjon og genetisk ... -
