  1. 1. Loyal Speed Adaptation Speed limitation by means of an active accelerator and its possible impacts in built-up areas

    Author : Sverker Almqvist; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; active accelerator; LSA; speed; speed reduction; driver behaviour; traffic safety; ISA; Teknik; Technological sciences; Road transport technology; Vägtransportteknik;

    Abstract : Traditional measures for improved traffic safety need to be complemented by modern technologies in the struggle to reduce the consequences of traffic accidents all over the world. This thesis introduces the Loyal Speed Adaptation (LSA) function based on recent developments in the area of Intelligent Transport Sys-tems to support the vehicle drivers in not using inappropriate or excessive speeds, which have been found to be an important factor for causing serious and fatal accidents.

  2. 2. The effect of surface steps and oxides on the catalytic activity on model Pd and Rh catalysts

    Author : Chu Zhang; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface X-ray diffraction SXRD ; X-ray photonelectron spectroscopy; Catalytic activity; Oxide; Single Crystal surface; surface structure; vicinal surface; CO oxidation; stepped surface; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Zhang;

    Abstract : A catalyst is a substance that can speed up the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed. Catalysts are crucial for chemical production industries, where about 90% of all chemicals are produced using catalysts. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nano- and Micro-sized Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Particles on Solid Surfaces

    Author : Tripta Kamra; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are artificial receptors made by imprinting template molecules in a polymer matrix followed by their removal through washing to obtain a specific and selective template cavities. This property of the MIPs have made them a very efficient material for diverse applications such as chromatography, purification, drug sensing, etc. READ MORE

  4. 4. Operando X-Ray Imaging of Battery Electrodes

    Author : Antoine Klein; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lithium-ion batteries; XTM; sodium-ion batteries; lithium-sulfur batteries; SAXS.; X-ray imaging;

    Abstract : Batteries are now part of our daily life as they enable easy usage of portable devices and are now essential for us to travel, communicate, work, read, or listen to music. The diversity of battery applications continuously increases and new demands of for instance capacity, charge time and sustainability have emerged. READ MORE

  5. 5. Image-based numerical modelling of heterogeneous materials

    Author : Robert Auenhammer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; X-ray computed tomography; image analysis; image-based modelling; Composites;

    Abstract : In science there has always been a desire to visualise the invisible. Since the discovery of X-rays in 1895, imaging research has made remarkable progress. Nowadays, state-of-the-art technology allows to visualise the micro-structure of objects in three dimensions. However, merely visualising the structure is often insufficient. READ MORE
