1. Structural Safety Analysis of Bow-Doors
Abstract : Bow-doors are one of the most vulnerable parts on a RoRo-vessel. At the same time, they are necessary for the profitability of todays RoRo-vessels.The minimum design rules for bow-door systems, stated in the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) S8, constitute the basis for the class rules.

2. Moisture-induced Distortion in Norway Spruce Timber - Experiments and Models
Abstract : Timber is a natural material that is environmentally friendly, renewable, light, strong and, in the eyes of most people, beautiful. Timber does, however, have one important drawback when it is used in a modern mechanised building process - its lack of straightness. READ MORE

3. High-speed jets and related phenomena at Earth's bow shock and magnetosheath
Abstract : Magnetosheath high-speed jets are transient and localized dynamic pressure enhancements downstream of Earth’s bow shock. Their formation has been associated with several mechanisms, including solar transient events and the dynamical evolution of the bow shock. READ MORE

4. Dissipation at the Earth's Quasi-Parallel Bow Shock
Abstract : The Earth's bow shock is a boundary where the solar wind becomes decelerated from supersonic to subsonic speed before being deflected around the Earth. This thesis presents measurements by the Cluster spacecraft upstream and at the Earth's quasi-parallel bow shock where the angle between the upstream magnetic field and the bow shock normal is less than 45 degrees.

5. Electron Heating and Acceleration at Earth’s Collisionless Bow Shock
Abstract : Cosmic rays are ultra-relativistic particles traveling near the speed of light permeating the galaxy. Collisionless shock waves with their ubiquity throughout the universe and excellent capability of accelerating charged particles offer an explanation to the origin of cosmic rays. READ MORE
