  2. 1. Remote Measurements of Ship Emissions

    Author : Niklas Berg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; airborne; Ship emissions; sulphur dioxide; nitrogen dioxide; DOAS; in situ measurements; carbon dioxide;

    Abstract : The combustion of sulphur-containing fossil fuels gives rise to emissions of sulphurdioxide. Nitrogen oxides are also emitted when fuels are burned. The InternationalMaritime Organization (IMO) has ratified regulations regarding Sulphur Fuel Content(SFC) and NOx emissions from the shipping sector. READ MORE

  4. 2. Characterisation of airborne particles from rail traffic

    Author : Saeed Abbasi; Ulf Sellgren; Ulf Olofsson; Mats Gustafsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; airborne; railway; brake; block; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik; SRA - Transport; SRA - Transport; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för persontrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för persontrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology;

    Abstract : Since the investigation of wear particles in rail transport started in late-1910s, the high mass concentration of these particles has raised worries among researchers concerned with air quality. However, effective action has yet to be taken because of lack of relevant knowledge. READ MORE

  5. 3. Towards elimination of airborne particles from rail traffic

    Author : Saeed Abbasi; Ulf Sellgren; Ulf Olofsson; Yannick Desplanques; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Airborne; brake block; brake pad; railway; subway; TEI; wheel–rail; wear; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology;

    Abstract : Since the investigation of wear particles from rail transport started in the late 1910s, the high mass concentrations of these particles have prompted concern among researchers interested in air quality. However, effective action has yet to be taken because relevant knowledge is still missing. READ MORE

  6. 4. Laboratory measurements of airborne emissions from car brakes for clean air

    Author : Guido Perricone; Ulf Olofsson; Fulvio Amato; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automotive brake; non-exhaust emissions; inertia brake dynamometer; airborne particles; PM10; PN; isokinetic sampling; Rebrake; volatiles; real driving cycle; car brake emission factors; running-in.; Bilbroms; icke-avgasemissioner; skivbromsdynamometer; luftburna partiklar; PM10; PN; isokinetisk provtagning; Rebrake; volatiler; verkliga körcykler; emissionsfaktorer; in-körning.; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Brake systems are used to safely stop vehicles. The brake pads are pressed against the brake disc, transforming the kinetic energy of the vehicle into heat to be dissipated. READ MORE

  7. 5. Airborne laser depth sounding : model development concerning the detection of small objects on the sea bottom

    Author : Michael Tulldahl; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : lidar; depth sounding; remote sensing; ocean optics; laser beam transmission;

    Abstract : Airborne laser depth sounding is a promising technique for rapid and high -density sounding of shallow waters. Depth accuracy analysis for laser depth sounding has almost exclusively dealt with horizontal flat bottoms. The objective of this work is to simulate and compare the influence of different shapes of small objects placed on the sea bottom. READ MORE
