In this doctoral thesis, a tomographic STED microscopy technique for 3D super-resolution imaging was developed and utilized to observebone remodeling processes. To improve upon existing methods, wehave used a tomographic approach using a commercially available stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscope. A certain region of interest (ROI) was observed at two oblique angles: one at a standard inverted configuration from below (bottom view) and another from the side (side view) via a micro-mirror positioned close to the ROI. The two viewing angles were reconstructed into a final tomogram. The technique, named as tomographic STED microscopy, was able to achieve an axial resolution of approximately 70 nm on microtubule structures in a fixed biological specimen. High resolution imaging of osteoclasts (OCs) that are actively resorbing bone was achieved by creating an optically transparent coating on a microscope coverglass that imitates a fractured bone surface. 2D super-resolution STED microscopy on the bone layer showed approximately 60 nm of lateral resolution on a resorption associated organelle allowing these structures to be imaged with super-resolution microscopy for the first time. The developed tomographic STED microscopy technique was further applied to study resorption mechanisms of OCs cultured on the bone coating. The technique revealed actin cytoskeleton with specific structures, comet-tails, some of which were facing upwards and some others were facing downwards. This, in our opinion, indicated that during bone resorption, an involvement of the actin cytoskeleton in vesicular exocytosis and endocytosis is present. The application of tomographic STED microscopy in bone biology demonstrated that 3D super-resolution techniques can provide new insights into biological 3D nano-structures that are beyond the diffraction-limit when the optical constraints of super-resolution imaging are carefully taken into account.

Tämä diplomityö tehtiin Valmet Technologies Oy:n Järvenpään toimipisteelle. Työn tavoitteena oli tutkia miten pituusleikkureiden 3D-suunnittelua voidaan tehostaa hyödyntämällä uuden 3D-CAD -järjestelmän ominaisuuksia optimaalisesti. Työ koostuu teoriaosuudesta, haastattelututkimuksesta sekä käytännön osuudesta. Teoriaosuudessa perehdytään pituusleikkurin toimintaan ja rakenteeseen, 3D-suunnittelun teoriaan sekä CATIA-järjestelmään. Teoriaosuudessa etsitään myös uusia näkökulmia 3D-suunnitteluun. Haastattelututkimuksessa kartoitetaan nykyinen suunnitteluprosessi, suunnittelun kehitettäviä kohteita, sekä käytössä olevia suunnittelumenetelmiä, jotka ovat todettu toimiviksi. Haastattelututkimuksessa haastatellaan Valmet Technologies Oy:n Järvenpään toimipisteessä työskenteleviä pituusleikkureiden pääsuunnittelijoita sekä heidän esimiehiään. Lisäksi erillisten haastattelujen avulla kerätään kokemuksia CATIA V6 -ohjelmiston käytöstä sekä suunnitteluohjelmiston vaihtumisesta. Käytännön osuuden tavoitteena on arvioida pituusleikkurin parametroitujen mallirakenteiden siirtämiseen sekä korjauksiin kuluvia aikamääriä kyseisiin toimenpiteisiin tarvittavien resurssien määrittämiseksi. Käytännön osuudessa siirretään kaksi Valmet OptiWin Drum Compact -pituusleikkurin parametroitua osakokonaisuutta uuteen CAD-järjestelmään ja niille suoritetaan tarvittavat korjaustoimenpiteet Tutkimuksen tulosten perusteella yhteisen mallinnusmetodologian puuttuminen on merkittävin kehityskohde suunnittelun kehittämisessä. Lopuksi luotiin kehitysehdotukset sekä implementointisuunnitelma, joiden avulla pituusleikkureiden 3D-suunnittelua voidaan kehittää ja CATIA V6 -ohjelmisto voidaan ottaa käyttöön tehokkaasti.

Additive manufacturing (shortened as AM), or more commonly 3D printing, consists of wide variety of different modern manufacturing technologies. AM is based on direct printing of a digital 3D model to a final product which is fabricated adding material layer by layer. This is from where term additive manufacturing has its origin. It is not only material what is added, but it is also value, properties etc. which are added. AM enables production of different and even better products compared to conventional manufacturing technologies. An estimation of potential of additive manufacturing can be gathered by considering the potential of laser cutting, which is one of the most widely used modern manufacturing technologies. This technique has been used over 40 years, and whole market around this technology is at the moment c. four billion euros and yearly growth is around 10 %. One factor affecting this success of laser cutting is that laser cutting enables radical improvements to products made of flat sheet. AM and 3D printing will do the same for three dimensional parts. Laser devices, which are at the moment used in 3D printing, are globally at the moment only around 1% of all laser devices used in any fabrication technology, so even with a cautious estimate the potential growth of at least 100 % is coming in next few years. Role of education is very important, when this kind of modern technology is industrially implemented. When both generation entering to work life and also generation who has been a while in work life understands new technology, its potential and limitations, this is the point when also product design can be rethought Potential of product design is driving force for wide use of additive manufacturing and 3D printing. Utilization of additive manufacturing and 3D printing is also opportunity for Finland and Finnish industry. This technology can save Finnish manufacturing industry. This technique has stron potential, as Finland has traditionally strong industrial know-how and good ICT knowledge.
