  2. 21. On the Agglomeration of Particles in Exhaust Gases

    Author : Ghulam Majal; Mihai Mihaescu; Mats Åbom; Mikael Karlsson; Lisa Prahl Wittberg; Henrik Ström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multiphase flow; DES; particulate matter; exhaust after treatment; particle agglomeration; Lagrangian particle tracking; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Abstract : Particulate emissions from road transportation are known to have an adverse impact on human health as well the environment. As the effects become more palpable, stricter legislation have been proposed by regulating bodies. READ MORE

  4. 22. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Combustion in PPC and Diesel Engines

    Author : Rickard Solsjö; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; large eddy simulation LES ; turbulent spray combustion; Lagrangian particle tracking LPT ; diesel engines; partially premixed combustion PPC engines.;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with large eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent combustion processes in direct injection internal combustion (IC) engines. Modeling of direct injection IC engine combustion involves modeling of turbulent spray/gas two-phase flow, modeling of chemical reactions of large hydrocarbon fuels and coupling of chemistry with turbulent flows.

  5. 23. Stochastic analysis of fluid flow and tracer pathways in crystalline fracture networks

    Author : Andrew Frampton; Vladimir Cvetkovic; Allen Shapiro; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Groundwater; Fractured media; Transport; Retention; Macrodispersion; Lagrangian formulation; Stochastic modelling; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Hydrology; Hydrologi; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Understanding groundwater flow systems and how these control transport is an essential part in assessing the suitability of subsurface environments as hosts for storage of toxic waste. Therefore it is important to be able to integrate knowledge obtained from field characterisation of the subsurface with methods which can be used to evaluate and predict possible impact on surrounding environments.

  6. 24. Supply chain optimization in the forest industry

    Author : Helene Gunnarsson Lidestam; Mikael Rönnqvist; Jan Lundgren; Eldon Gunn; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supply chain; logistics; forestry; optimization; modelling; transportation; mixed integer programming models; försörjningskedjor; logistik; optimering; modellering; transportplanering; blandade heltalsproblem; skogsindustrin; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : The scope of this thesis is modelling and solving large-scale planning problems in the supply chain within the forest industry. Five research papers are included, the first three of which focus on the modelling, and the last two on the solution methods. READ MORE

  7. 25. Quantification of sources and removal mechanisms of atmospheric aerosol particles

    Author : Henrik Grythe; Johan Ström; Dominick Spracklen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosol; aerosol removal; aerosol emission; aerosol sources; FLEXPART; Arctic aerosol; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The focus of this work has been to quantify important processes for climatically relevant aerosols, and to improve our understanding of, and ability to accurately model, aerosols in the atmosphere on a large scale. This thesis contains five papers focused on different parts of the life cycle of atmospheric aerosol particles. READ MORE
