  2. 1. Hydropower Area Equivalents : Reduced Models for Efficient Simulation of Large-Scale Hydropower Systems

    Author : Evelin Blom; Lennart Söder; Arild Helseth; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Area Equivalent; Aggregation; Bilevel optimization; Large-scale hydropower; Power system simulation; Reduced model; Area-Ekvivalent; Aggregering; Två-nivå-optimering; Storskalig vattenkraft; Kraftsystemssimulering; Reducerad modell;

    Abstract : With over 4000 TWh yearly electricity production worldwide, hydropower plays an important role in many power systems. Unlike many other renewable energy sources, hydropower has a certain degree of controllability and high levels of flexibility over several time scales. READ MORE

  4. 2. Large Area Propellers

    Author : Daniel Knutsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; propeller hull interaction; propulsive efficiency; large propellers;

    Abstract : Even if shipping is the most energy efficient and inexpensive way of transporting large volumes of goods across the world, it still could be significantly improved with respect to energy efficiency.In this thesis, propulsive efficiency is improved by moving the propeller backwards from its original position and increasing its diameter.

  5. 3. Methods and techniques for precise and accurate in-duct aero-acoustic measurements : Application to the area expansion

    Author : Luck Peerlings; Susann Boij; Hans Bodén; Yves Aurégan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Area-expansion; Scattering matrix; Multi-microphone method; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : During the design and commissioning of combustion equipment, combustion associated instabilities are commonly encountered. These thermo-acoustic instabilities can cause undesirable noise, vibrations, local thermal and mechanical stresses in the combustor and are prominent in lean combustion. READ MORE

  6. 4. Bacterial antibody hydrolyzing enzymes – as bacterial virulence factors and biotechnological tools

    Author : Eleni Bratanis; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunoglobulins; Immunomodulation; Antibody mediated immunity; Glycosylation; Bacterial virulence; Bacterial enzymes; Biotechnology; streptococcus pyogenes; Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus;

    Abstract : Antibodies are an essential part of the human immune system, and antibody mediated immunity has been an area of interest for many researchers for almost a century. An accumulation of knowledge regarding antibody structure, glycosylation and receptor interactions has contributed to the current understanding of antibody mediated immunity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Human milk as a source of tumor killing molecules. From MAL to HAMLET

    Author : Anki Mossberg; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; alphalactalbumin; human milk; Protein folding; cancer;

    Abstract : HAMLET (Human alphalactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells), a complex between the partially unfolded alphalactalbumin and oleic acid, was discovered by serendipity when anti-adhesive properties of human milk were examined. HAMLET kills tumor cells but not healthy differentiated cells. READ MORE
