  2. 1. Toni Morrison and the Writing of Place

    Author : Alice Sundman; Bo G. Ekelund; Tanja Staehler; Angelyn L. Mitchell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Toni Morrison; place; placial relations; writing; manuscripts; archive; Toni Morrison Papers; text and avant-texte; genetic criticism; phenomenology; English; engelska;

    Abstract : This dissertation explores the writing of place in Toni Morrison’s fiction, focusing primarily on the novels Beloved (1987), Paradise (1998), and A Mercy (2008). It analyses particular instances of written places in these works in a twofold way, namely, how place is foregrounded through literary means in the text and how place has emerged in a process of shaping.

  4. 2. Thermodynamic Database for Zirconium Alloys

    Author : Rosa Jerlerud Pérez; Bo Sundman; Arthur Motta; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zirconium alloys; thermodynamic equilibrium; thermodynamic properties; binary system; ternary system; Gibbs energy; Thermo-Calc; Calphad; binary system; ternary system; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : For many decades zirconium alloys have been commonly used in the nuclear power industry as fuel cladding material. Besides their good corrosion resistance and acceptable mechanical properties the main reason for using these alloys is the low neutron absorption. READ MORE

  5. 3. Studies of Steel/Slag Equilibria using Computational Thermodynamics

    Author : Lina Kjellqvist; Bo Sundman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; steel slag equilibria; thermodynamic modelling; thermodynamic assessment; CALPHAD; phase diagram; Thermo-Calc; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The main focus in the present work concerns calculations on steel/slag equilibria. Thermodynamic software and databases are now powerful and accurate enough to give reliable results when applied to complex metallurgical processes. One example is the decarburization process of high alloyed steels. READ MORE

  6. 4. Thermodynamic modelling and assessment of some alumino-silicate systems

    Author : Huahai Mao; Bo Sundman; Gunnar Eriksson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermodynamic modelling; thermodynamic assessment; alumino-silicate system; slag; oxide system; CALPHAD; phase diagram; phase equilibrium; Thermo-Calc; compound energy formalism; ionic two sub-lattice liquid model; AlO2-1 species; Al2O3; CaO; MgO; SiO2; Y2O3; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Alumino-silicate systems are of great interest for materials scientists and geochemists. Thermodynamic knowledge of these systems is useful in steel and ceramic industries, and for understanding geochemical processes. A popular and efficient approach used to obtain a self-consistent thermodynamic dataset is called CALPHAD. READ MORE

  7. 5. Thermodynamic modelling of carbides in multicomponent systems : theoretical and experimental approach

    Author : Andreas Markström; Bo Sundman; José Garcia; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns thermodynamic modeling of carbides in multicomponent systems. Focus has been made on systems interesting for cemented carbide production but the results are also useful for many other application were the material consist of different carbides, for example tool steels/high speed steels.
