  1. 1. Kinematics and Internal Deformation of Granular Slopes

    Author : Zhina Liu; Hemin Koyi; Dominique Frizon de Lamotte; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; granular flow; kinematics; internal deformation; particle flow method; analogue modeling; natural landslides; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Earth Science with specialization in Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Abstract : Flow-like mass movement is the most destructive landslide and causes loss of lives and substantial property damage throughout the world every year. This thesis focuses on the spatial and temporal changes of the mass movement in terms of velocity and displacement within the failure mass, and the spatial and temporal distribution of the three dimensional internal deformation of the granular slopes using discrete element method, physical experiments, and natural landslides.

  2. 2. Lake Dissolved Organic Matter Quantity and Quality : Variability across Temporal and Spatial Scales

    Author : Roger André Müller; Gesa Weyhenmeyer; Emily Stanley; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dissolved organic matter; organic carbon; CDOM; lakes; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Surface waters receive large amounts of dissolved organic matter (DOM) via runoff from land. The DOM is rich in organic carbon that serves as an energy source for the aquatic biota. During uptake of this energy, aquatic organisms mineralize organic carbon. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hygroscopic Properties of Aerosols from Open-Air Burning and Controlled Combustion of Biomass

    Author : Jenny Rissler; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cloud condensation nuclei; H-TDMA; CCN; hygroscopic growth; Teknik; internal and external mixture; CLAIRE; SMOCC; Physics; Fysik; Environmental chemistry; Technological sciences; Miljökemi; tandem differential mobility analyzer; slash and burn; Amazon; Biomass burning; combustion; Fysicumarkivet A:2005:Rissler;

    Abstract : The major uncertainty in predicting the influence of human activities on global climate change is the effect of aerosols. Two physical properties of aerosols largely controlling their influence on climate are the particle number size distribution and the interaction of the particles with the surrounding water vapor.

  4. 4. X-ray microtomography and digital volume correlation for internal deformation and strain analysis

    Author : Fredrik Forsberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Experimentell mekanik; Experimental Mechanics;

    Abstract : A material that is exposed to mechanical load or experience a variation in its immediate environment (temperature, pressure, humidity etc.) will to some extent be affected by these new conditions, which is reflected through structural movements in the material. READ MORE

  5. 5. Towards a Predictable Component-Based Run-Time System

    Author : Rafia Inam; Mikael Sjödin; Jukka Mäki-Turja; Tullio Vardanega; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; real-time systems; component based software engineering; hierarchical scheduling; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : In this thesis we propose a technique to preserve the temporal properties of realtime components during their integration and reuse. We propose a new concept of runnable virtual node which is a coarse-grained real-time component that provides functional and temporal isolation with respect to its environment. READ MORE
