  2. 11. Late Quaternary ice sheet history and dynamics in central and southern Scandinavia

    Author : Timothy Johnsen; Helena Alexanderson; James T. Teller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scandinavian ice sheet; ice sheet dynamics; luminescence dating; cosmogenic exposure dating; geochronology; moraine; interstadial; deglaciation; nunatak; Quaternary geology; Kvartärgeologi; kvartärgeologi; Quarternary Geology;

    Abstract : Recent work suggests an emerging new paradigm for the Scandinavian ice sheet (SIS); one of a dynamically fluctuating ice sheet. This doctoral research project explicitly examines the history and dynamics of the SIS at four sites within Sweden and Norway, and provides results covering different time periods of glacial history.

  4. 12. Numerical modelling of the Cordilleran ice sheet

    Author : Julien Seguinot; Arjen Stroeven; Shawn Marshall; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical modelling; Cordilleran ice sheet; last glacial cycle; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

    Abstract : This doctoral dissertation presents a study of the glacial history of the North American Cordillera using numerical ice sheet modelling calibrated against field evidence. This area, characterized by the steep topography of several mountain ranges separated by large inter-montane depressions, was once covered by a large-scale ice mass: the former Cordilleran ice sheet.

  5. 13. On Surface Topography of Steel Sheet for Car Bodies

    Author : Magnus Jonasson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paint appearance; forming; steel sheet; bearing area; 3D surface roughness; area parameters; ball filter; friction; surface topography;

    Abstract : This thesis is a contribution to the scientific area of surface topography on sheet metal surfaces. The studies are restricted to exploring the influence of the steel sheet,s surface topography on forming properties and on appearance after painting. READ MORE

  6. 14. Stability of the free-surface problem arising in ice-sheet- and glacier modeling : Numerical investigation and stabilization

    Author : André Löfgren; Josefin Ahlkrona; Fabien Gillet-Chaulet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ice-sheet modeling; glacier modeling; ice-sheet dynamics; free-surface flow; stability; stabilization; free-surface stabilization algorithm; Numerical Analysis; numerisk analys;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of two papers dealing with a stabilization method for free-surface flows. The method was initially developed to stabilize mantle-convection simulations, but is in this work extended to ice-sheet- and glacier modeling. READ MORE

  7. 15. Ground vibrations due to pile and sheet pile driving : influencing factors, predictions and measurements

    Author : Fanny Deckner; Staffan Hintze; Kenneth Viking; Sigurdur Erlingsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ground vibration; pile; sheet pile; prediction; markvibrationer; påle; spont; prediktion;

    Abstract : Ground vibrations due to pile driving are part of a complex process. Vibration is generated from the pile driver to the pile. As the pile interacts with the surrounding soil, vibrations are transferred at the pile-soil interface. The vibration propagates through the ground and interacts with structures, both above ground and underground. READ MORE
