  1. 1. Diffusive Mass Transport of Ions in Wood

    Author : Reddysuresh Kolavali; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sorption; wood; mass transport; impregnation;

    Abstract : Understanding the conditions that control the mass transfer of various chemicals/ions in wood is of great importance when it is subjected to various processes. Homogeneous impregnation with chemicals/ions, for example, increases the uniformity of the treatments to which the wood is subjected, reduces reaction times and may increase the yield of the final products.

  2. 2. Transport Modes in Nanotube-Vesicle Networks

    Author : Michal Tokarz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diffusion; confinement; liposome; biomimetic; micromanipulation; Vesicle; electrophoresis; network; nanotube; transport;

    Abstract : Methods for construction of surface-immobilized microscopic networks of phospholipid bilayer vesicles (3-50 µm in diameter) interconnected by lipid tubes (30-150 nm in radius), have previously been developed. The networks have controlled connectivity and are well-defined with regard to container size, content, angle between nanotube extensions, and nanotube length. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Lagrangian Stochastic Advective-Reactive Approach to Modeling Solute Transport in Hydrological Systems

    Author : Archana Gupta; KTH; []
    Keywords : solute transport; groundwater transport; unsaturated zone; stream hydrology; stream networks; stochastic processes; mass transfer kinetics; preferential flow; temporal moments; catchment hydrology; Lagrangian transport model;

    Abstract : The Lagrangian stochastic advective-reactive modelingapproach has been used for analyzing transport of bothnonreactive and reactive solutes in different hydrologicalsystems (structured soil, groundwater, mining waste rockdeposits and surface waters including single stream and networkof streams) and at different spatio-temporal scales (rangingfrom laboratory column-scale to catchment-scale). Further, afirst step has been taken to extending the Lagrangianstochastic advective-reactive modeling methodology to integratethe soil-groundwater-stream transport through a catchment. READ MORE

  4. 4. Dissipative Processes in Superconducting Diffusive Tunnel Junctions

    Author : Andrey Vasenko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Josephson effect; Andreev bound states; nonequilibrium superconductivity; superconducting junctions; transport processes; tunneling; diffusive superconductors;

    Abstract : A central subject of this thesis is the dissipative current transport in superconducting tunnel junctions with diffusive electrodes. Tunnel current transport in superconducting junctions is a classical topic of interest and research. READ MORE

  5. 5. Solute transport in the integrated soil-groundwater system

    Author : Eva Simic; KTH; []
    Keywords : solute transport; groundwater transport; integrated soil.groundwater system;

    Abstract : A Lagrangian stochastic travel time approach has been usedfor investigating dominant process impacts on (non-reactive andreactive) solute transport in the integrated soil-groundwatersystem. A first step has also been taken to extending thisLagrangian stochastic travel time approach to integrate thesoil-groundwater-stream transport through a catchment. READ MORE
