  2. 1. Stellar kinematics in surveys and simulations

    Author : Daniel Mikkola; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galactic dynamics; stellar dynamics; simulations; Gaia; Galactic dynamics; Stellar kinematics; Numerical simulations; Statistical methods; Solar neighborhood;

    Abstract : We study stellar motions in the Milky Way with N-body simulations and large astrometric samples from ESA's Gaia mission. We identify two kinematic populations for white dwarfs in the Solar neighbourhood. We also investigate the accreted halo and reveal two new structures. READ MORE

  4. 2. Numerical simulations of wear

    Author : Mona Öqvist; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : The objective of this licentiate thesis was to study the effect of tool wear for sheet metal forming tools and how the wear process can be simulated in an efficient manner. Three Papers are appended to this licentiate thesis. Paper A covers the influence of tool geometry in deep drawing. READ MORE

  5. 3. Thermal response test : numerical simulations and analyses

    Author : Anna-Maria Gustafsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vattenteknik; Water Resources Engineering; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Abstract : When constructing large borehole heat exchanger (BHE) systems, bedrock and borehole thermal properties are vital for a good design. Today's design programs presume conductive heat transfer in both borehole and bedrock. READ MORE

  6. 4. Strength and Moisture Aspects of Steel Timber Dowel Joints in Glulam Structures : An Experimental and Numerical Study

    Author : Johan Sjödin; Erik Serrano; Per Johan Gustafsson; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; constraint stresses; contact-free measurement; dowel-type joints; humidity variations; glu-lam beams; glulam structures; linear elastic fracture mechanics; moisture-induced stresses; numerical simulations; short term capacity.; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Joints are critical parts of timber structures, transmitting static and dynamic forces between structural members. The ultimate behavior of e.g. a building depends strongly on the structural configuration and the capacity of its joints. READ MORE

  7. 5. Numerical Simulations of Cooling Concepts Related to Gas Turbine Combustors

    Author : Andreas Abdon; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Motors and propulsion systems; plasma; combustor; gas turbine; cooling; numerical simulations; turbulence; ribs; impingement; Gases; fluid dynamics; plasmas; fluiddynamik; Gaser; Motorer; framdrivningssystem; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik;

    Abstract : The mean by which a gas turbine combustor is cooled is of major importance for the efficiency and emission performance of the machine. The trends of increasing top cycle temperature and leaner combustion have also been accompanied by a need of efficient use of the cooling air. READ MORE
