2. 1. Miniaturized cell and flow reactor for QCM-D measurements on fluids and soft matter

   Author : Gabriel Ohlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; soft matter materials; confined volume; Nanocell; QCM-D sensing; miniaturized flow reactor; lipid bilayer; thin films; liquid crystals;

   Abstract : Thin soft matter films are frequently used in many technical applications, where phenomena taking place in the interfacial regions, control film properties and functionality. In order to optimize the latter there is a clear need of methods and tools for probing diverse physical properties of thin soft matter films confined in a nano-sized region. READ MORE

4. 2. Numerical Study of Fluid-Structure Interaction with Application to Oscillating Cylinders

   Author : Mikhail Lazarkov; Strömningsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lock-in.; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik; synchronization; flow-induced vibration; LES; Volume of Solid method; Virtual Boundary method; vortex-shedding; confined cylinder; Fluid-structure interaction; wake;

   Abstract : The problem of fluid-structure interaction, occurring in many industrial and engineering applications, are of great importance, since interaction of a flow and a structure in it can lead to serious damages of the structure. The fluid-structure interaction gives rise to a variety of different physical phenomena such as flow-induced vibration, noise generation, etc. READ MORE

5. 3. Different paths to explore confined crystallisation of PCL

   Author : Nima Sanandaji; Ulf W. Gedde; Mikael S Hedenqvist; Javier Martinez de Salazar; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; crystallisation; poly-ε-caprolactone; end groups; morphology; nanoconfinement; melting; monodisperse; RESS; injet printing;

   Abstract : In this work, different paths to confined crystallisation of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) havebeen explored. Innate confinement effects due to the presence of bulky end groups wereshown to affect crystalline characteristics for strictly monodisperse ε-caprolactone oligomers. READ MORE

6. 4. Spectroscopic studies of biomolecules confined in self-assembled nanostructures

   Author : Nils Carlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : The present thesis examines the effects of incorporating biomolecules into self-assembled nanostructures. This approach is exemplified by short DNA molecules in environments close to lipid bilayers and the immobilization of enzymes into mesoporous silica particles. READ MORE

7. 5. Fluid Mechanics of Solid-Liquid Suspensions – An Experimental and Numerical Study

   Author : Torbjörn Virdung; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiphase; soalescence; confined jet; computational fluid dynamics; stirred vessel; laser doppler velocimetry; particle image velocimetry; solid-liquid suspension; pitched blade; gas-liquid;

   Abstract : Multiphase flows are common in many applications in chemical, mineral, biochemical and several other process industries. Examples of equipment in which multiphase flows are encountered are stirred vessels and multiphase jets, in which suspensions are agitated by an impeller in the former case and distributed through a nozzle in the latter.
