2. 1. Coupled processes in seasonally frozen soils : Merging experiments and simulations

   Author : Mousong Wu; Per-Erik Jansson; Bjorn Klove; KTH; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Frozen soil; Coupled transport; Energy balance; Uncertainties; Merged study; 冻土；水热盐运移；耦合关系；水热平衡；不确定性; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

   Abstract : Soil freezing/thawing is of importance in the transport of water, heat and solute, with coupled effects. Due to complexity in soil freezing/thawing, uncertainty could be influential in both experimentation and simulation work in frozen soils. READ MORE

4. 2. Fluid Mechanics of Vertical Axis Turbines : Simulations and Model Development

   Author : Anders Goude; Olov Ågren; Carlos Simão Ferreira; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Wind power; Marine current power; Vertical axis turbine; Wind farm; Channel flow; Simulations; Vortex model; Streamtube model; Control system; Graphics processing unit; CUDA; Fast multipole method; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

   Abstract : Two computationally fast fluid mechanical models for vertical axis turbines are the streamtube and the vortex model. The streamtube model is the fastest, allowing three-dimensional modeling of the turbine, but lacks a proper time-dependent description of the flow through the turbine. READ MORE

5. 3. Bridge functions in strongly coupled plasmas : theory, simulations and applications

   Author : Federico Castello Lucco; Svetlana V. Ratynskaia; Panagiotis Tolias; Giorgio Pastore; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; Atomic; Subatomic and Astrophysics; Atomär fysik; subatomär fysik och astrofysik;

   Abstract : Strongly coupled or non-ideal plasmas are multi-component charged systems in which at least one species possesses an average interaction energy that is comparable or larger than its thermal energy. Non-ideal plasmas are naturally occurring in dense astrophysical objects (e.g. giant planet interiors) but also engineered in the laboratory (e. READ MORE

6. 4. Molecular simulations of G protein-coupled receptors : A journey into structure-based ligand design and receptor function

   Author : Pierre Matricon; Jens Carlsson; Bjørn Olav Brandsdal; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G Protein-Coupled Receptor; Molecular Dynamics Simulations; Free Energy Perturbation; Ligand Binding; Fragment-Based Lead Discovery; Molecular Docking Screens; Homology Modeling; GPCR Activation Mechanism; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

   Abstract : The superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) contains a large number of important drug targets. These cell surface receptors recognize extracellular signaling molecules, which stimulates intracellular pathways that play major roles in human physiology. READ MORE

7. 5. Engine Encapsulation for Increased Fuel Efficiency of Road Vehicles

   Author : Blago Minovski; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coupled simulations; powertain cooling systems; warm-up; 1D simulations; thermal engine encapsulation; cool-down; fuel consumption; numerical analysis; 3D CFD simulations;

   Abstract : Thermal engine encapsulation is an increasingly popular design choice, which insulates the engine from the external environment and retains heat in the engine after it is turned off. This decelerates motor cool-down and increases the probability for high initial temperature at a subsequent engine start, resulting in shorter warm-up and reduced friction between engine parts.
