2. 1. Instability in Settling Fibres : A Numerical Study

   Author : Feng Zhang; Anders A. Dahlkild; Fredrik Lundell; Mark Martinez; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bre suspensions; sedimentation; instability; mixture model; point-particle mode;

   Abstract : Sedimenting suspensions exist in a varity of natural phenomena and industrial applications. It is already observed in experiments that the dilute fibre suspensions experience a concentration instability under gravity at low Reynolds numbers. Initially well-mixed suspensions become inhomogeneous and anisotropic due to this instability. READ MORE

4. 2. Strain- and bioprocess-design strategies to increase production of (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate by Escherichia coli

   Author : Mónica Guevara-Martínez; Gen Larsson; Antonius J. A. van Maris; Pau Ferrer; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; E. coli; R -3-hydroxybutyrate; metabolic engineering; bioprocess design; NADPH; acetic acid; thioesterase; BAC; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

   Abstract : Microbial bio-based processes have emerged as an alternative to replace fossil-based processes for the production of fuels and chemicals. (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) is a medium-value chemical that has gained special attention as a precursor of antibiotics and vitamins, as a monomer for the synthesis of tailor-made polyesters and as a nutritional source for eukaryotic cells.

5. 3. Early Information Processing in the Vertebrate Olfactory System : A Computational Study

   Author : Malin Sandström; Anders Lansner; Dominique Martinez; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; olfaction; olfactory system; olfactory bulb; synchronisation; CaMKII; mathematical modelling; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : The olfactory system is believed to be the oldest sensory system. It developed to detect and analyse chemical information in the form of odours, and its organisation follows the same principles in almost all living animals - insects as well as mammals. READ MORE

6. 4. Public Planning, Neoliberal Hybridity and Local Activism in Sundbyberg : Epochal Reconfiguration of Urban Development in Greater Stockholm

   Author : Christoffer Berg; Susanne Urban; Fredrik Palm; Miguel A. Martínez; Christian Schmid; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Neoliberalism; neoliberal urbanism; urban planning; urban development; production of space; Henri Lefebvre;

   Abstract : Which urban policy responses are deployed when a small social democratic municipality in a greater city region aims to be competitive for private investments in housing and the built environment? Which new institutional development arrangements are implemented for this purpose, in the wake of a decades-long hegemonic position of the municipal public housing company? This thesis draws on a qualitative case study design to approach such questions, and investigates recent urban development in Sundbybergs stad in Greater Stockholm to answer them. Theoretically, the thesis draws on a theory of neoliberal localization in combination with Henri Lefebvre’s theory of the social production of space. READ MORE

7. 5. Hybrid Solar Gas-Turbine Power Plants : A Thermoeconomic Analysis

   Author : James Spelling; Andrew Martin; Björn Laumert; David Tomas Sanchez Martinez; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solar thermal power; hybrid gas-turbine; thermoeconomics; koncentrerad solenergi; gas-turbiner; ekonomisk analys;

   Abstract : The provision of a sustainable energy supply is one of the most importantissues facing humanity at the current time, and solar thermal power hasestablished itself as one of the more viable sources of renewable energy. Thedispatchable nature of this technology makes it ideally suited to forming thebackbone of a future low-carbon electricity system. READ MORE
