  4. 2. Structure and chemical ordering in metallic nanoparticles from atomic scale modeling

    Author : Magnus Rahm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanoparticles; regular truncated octahedron; chemical ordering; nanoparticle shapes; molecular dynamics; icosahedron; Monte Carlo; modeling; Marks decahedron; nanoparticle structures;

    Abstract : In the last decades, a wide range of attractive properties have put metallic nanoparticles in the spotlight. These properties, often related to optical response and catalytic performance, are to a large extent dependent on structure and chemical ordering, that is, the distribution of elements in the nanoparticle.

  5. 3. There Is an Alloy at the End of the Rainbow: Structure and Optical Properties From Bulk to Nano

    Author : Magnus Rahm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermodynamics; optical properties; dielectric functions; hydrides; alloy cluster expansions; alloys; nanoalloys;

    Abstract : Mixing different chemical species and decreasing dimensions to the nanoscale are two powerful approaches for improving materials. In both cases new properties emerge, and structure, composition, and chemical ordering can be tuned to tailor materials for specific purposes. READ MORE

  6. 4. Blade force measurements and electrical torque ripple of a vertical axis wind turbine

    Author : Morgan Rossander; Sandra Eriksson; Hans Bernhoff; Magnus Rahm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity;

    Abstract : Wind power has become an attractive alternative for clean energy production. Horizontal axis turbines are increasing in power rating and are maturing as products. The cost of maintenance, noise levels and durability are possible concerns of the modern horizontal axis wind turbines. READ MORE
