  2. 1. Approximant Phases in Quasicrystalline AlCuFe Thin Films

    Author : Simon Olsson; Lars Hultman; Jens Birch; Fredrik Eriksson; Xiaodong Zou; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Quasicrystalline materials exhibit properties that are very different from conventional metallic materials. They are mostly metallic alloys, and show high hardness and stiffness but low electrical and thermal conductivity. The coefficient of friction and surface energy of the quasicrystalline materials are also very low. READ MORE

  4. 2. Al-based Thin Film Quasicrystals and Approximants

    Author : Simon Olsson; Fredrik Eriksson; Lars Hultman; Jensen Jens; Xiaodong Zou; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this work, Al-based quasicrystalline and approximant phases have been synthesized in thin films using magnetron sputter deposition. Quasicrystals are structures having long-range order and rotational symmetries which are inconsistent with periodicity. READ MORE

  5. 3. Anxiety and (In)Security in Times of Calamity : The 2014 flood and the Kashmir conflict

    Author : Rasmus Andrén; Eva-Karin Olsson Gardell; Simon Hollis; Scott Watson; Försvarshögskolan; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Disaster; Conflict; Disruption; Anxiety; Ontological Security; Kashmir; Katastrof; konflikt; störning; ångest; ontologisk säkerhet; Kashmir; Political Science; Statsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Environmental calamities and disasters are increasingly found to affect political stability and conflicts. Despite a plethora of research across a range of disciplines, however, explanations remain elusive. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development of Encapsulated UN-UO₂ Accident Tolerant Fuel

    Author : Diogo Ribeiro Costa; Pär Olsson; Janne Wallenius; Simon Middleburgh; Magnus Limbäck; Denise Adorno Lopes; Ho Jin Ryu; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Accident tolerant fuel; UN-UO2 composite fuel; coating technology; powder coating; chemical vapour deposition CVD ; physical vapour deposition PVD ; UN spheres; spark plasma sintering; Kärnenergiteknik; Nuclear Engineering;

    Abstract : Accident tolerant fuels (ATFs) are designed to endure a severe accident in the reactor core longer than the standard UO2-Zr alloy systems used in light water reactors (LWRs). Composite fuels such as UN-UO2 are being considered as an ATF concept to address the lower oxidation resistance of the UN fuel from a safety perspective for use in LWRs, whilst improving the in-reactor behaviour of the UO2 fuel.

  7. 5. Att organisera förändring: designperspektiv på organisationsförändringar i tillverkningsindustrin

    Author : Bertil Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; participation; testing ideas; organizational change; design theory; change process; design artefacts; reflection-on-action; capacity for change;

    Abstract : The objective of this study is to articulate the particular knowledge that is developed by participants in organizational-change projects, who succeed in questioning ingrained opinions and establishing new ideas, and developing alternatives. I thereby aim to contribute by setting new preconditions for participants in future change processes, so they can act as knowledgeable and creative individuals, with the capability to identify issues, and to proceed by trial-and-error.
