1. Modelling of muscular force induced by non-isometric contraction
Abstract : The main objective of the study was to investigate and simulate skeletal muscleforce production during and after isometric contractions, active muscle lengtheningand active muscle shortening. The motivation behind this work was to improve thedominant model of muscle force generation based on the theories of Hill from 1938. READ MORE

2. Development and application of techniques for predicting and analysing phonon-derived materials properties
Abstract : The thermodynamic properties of materials are of great interest for both scientists and engineers. A large contribution to many properties stems from the vibrational motion of the atoms in the material. An understanding of the dynamics of the vibrating atoms is therefore important for many other areas as well, including, e.g. READ MORE

3. Aerodynamics of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Development of Simulation Tools and Experiments
Abstract : This thesis combines measurements with the development of simulation tools for vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT). Numerical models of aerodynamic blade forces are developed and validated against experiments. The studies were made on VAWTs which were operated at open sites. READ MORE

4. Atomic-scale investigation of interfacial structures in WC-Co at finite temperatures
Abstract : WC-Co cemented carbides combine superb hardness with high toughness making them ideal for usage in high-speed machining of steels and in wear resistance tools. These excellent mechanical properties are to a large extent dependent on the microstructure and thus the interfacial properties of the material. READ MORE
