  2. 1. Application of Rare-Earth Doped Ceria and Natural Minerals for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

    Author : Yanyan Liu; Andrew R. Martin; Wujun Wang; Shanwen Tao; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells; Doped ceria; Material characterizations; Electrochemical performances; Natural minerals; Lågtemperatur fastoxidbränsleceller; Dopade ceriumoxid; Materialkarakteriseringar; Elektrokemiska prestanda; Naturliga mineraler.; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Although solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology exhibits considerable advantages as compared to other energy conversion devices, e.g. high efficiency, low emission and fuel flexibility, its high operating temperature leads to rapid component degradation and has thus hampered commercialization.

  4. 2. Performance and Energy Efficient Building Blocks for Network-on-Chip Architectures

    Author : Sriram R. Vangal; Atila Alvandpour; Viktor Öwall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Network-on-Chip Architectures; floating-point units; tiled-architectures; crossbar routers; multi-processor interconnection; Computer engineering; Datorteknik;

    Abstract : The ever shrinking size of the MOS transistors brings the promise of scalable Network-on-Chip (NoC) architectures containing hundreds of processing elements with on-chip communication, all integrated into a single die. Such a computational fabric will provide high levels of performance in an energy efficient manner. READ MORE

  5. 3. Electron paramagnetic resonance study of defects in SiC

    Author : Patrick Carlsson; Nguyen Tien Son; Erik Janzén; Evan R. Glaser; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor (energy gap of 3.26 eV and 3.03 eV for 4Hand 6H-SiC, respectively). With outstanding physical and electronic properties, SiC is a promising material for high-power, high-frequency and high-temperature applications. READ MORE

  6. 4. Strong Partial Clones and the Complexity of Constraint Satisfaction Problems : Limitations and Applications

    Author : Victor Lagerkvist; Peter Jonsson; Christer Bäckström; Nadia Creignou; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the worst-case time complexity of the constraint satisfaction problem parameterized by a constraint language (CSP(S)), which is the problem of determining whether a conjunctive formula over S has a model. To study the complexity of CSP(S) we borrow methods from universal algebra. READ MORE

  7. 5. Identification of candidate genes involved in Mercury Toxicokinetics and Mercury Induced Autoimmunity

    Author : Hammoudi Alkaissi; Per Hultman; Said Havarinasab; Peter Söderkvist; Jesper Bo Nielsen; Johan Rönnelid; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND: Autoimmune diseases require the involvement and activation of immune cells and occur when the body builds up an immune response against its own tissues. This process takes place due to the inability to distinguish self-antigen from foreign antigen. Systemic autoimmunity represents an important cause of morbidity and mortality in humans. READ MORE
