Diffractive X-ray Tomography of Oriented Mineralized Structures Doctoral thesis in Hierarchical Materials
Mürer, Fredrik Kristoffer (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:112, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Many materials around us in everyday life have a hierarchical structure, meaning that defining structural features are found at multiple length scales, often ranging from the molecular to the macroscopic scale, together ... -
Elucidating the pathogenesis of osteochondrosis using nonlinear optical microscopy
Finnøy, Andreas (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:309, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Abstract Osteochondrosis is defined as a focal disturbance in endochondral ossification and causes joint pain and lameness in several species of animals, including humans. The focal disturbance occurs at predilection ... -
