  2. 1. Water-Metal Surfaces : Insights from core-level spectroscopy and density functional theory

    Author : Theanne Schiros; Anders Nilsson; John Hemminger; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : water; hydroxyl; metal; surfaces; x-ray spectroscopy; density functional theory; bonding; fuel cell; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Abstract : Computational methods are combined with synchrotron-based techniques to analyze the structure and bonding of water and water plus hydroxyl at metal surfaces under UHV and at near-ambient conditions. Water-metal interaction plays a crucial role in a multitude of cosmic, atmospheric and biological phenomena as well as heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemistry and corrosion. READ MORE

  4. 2. Geometry and Critical Configurations of Multiple Views

    Author : Fredrik Kahl; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; algebra; algebraic geometry; field theory; Number Theory; Matematik; Mathematics; reconstruction; image sequence; absolute conic; critical motions; critical surfaces; perspective projection; affine geometry; Euclidean geometry; multiple view geometry; projective geometry; group theory; Talteori; fältteori; algebraisk geometri; gruppteori; Mathematical logic; set theory; combinatories; Matematisk logik; mängdlära; kombinatorik;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with one of the core problems in computer vision, namely to reconstruct a real world scene from several images of it. The interplay between the geometry of the scene, the cameras and the images is analyzed. READ MORE

  5. 3. Searing apparent surfaces : infernal females in four early works of William Blake

    Author : Dee Drake; Alicia Ostriker; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; English language; Engelska språket; English; engelska;

    Abstract : This study explores the quality of the infernal as a specifically female expression of desire in William Blake's work. The contention is that the infernal constitutes an essential female element of the divine in Blake's early work but is demonized in the late work as an attribute of the Female Will. READ MORE

  6. 4. Rough surfaces in contact : artificial intelligence and boundary lubrication

    Author : Marco Rapetto; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : Interacting surfaces are found in mechanical systems and components. Since engineered surfaces are not perfectly smooth, only a fraction of the nominal surface area is actually in contact. This fraction is denoted as the real area of contact, Ar, and is formed by the sum of the contact spots between the two touching surfaces. READ MORE

  7. 5. Pool Boiling on Structured Surfaces: Heat Transfer and Critical Heat Flux : Experiments and Mechanistic Modelling

    Author : Zhen Cao; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pool boiling; heat transfer; critical heat flux; bubble dynamics; surface modification;

    Abstract : In this thesis, pool boiling heat transfer was experimentally studied on structured surfaces with dielectric liquids (HFE-7200, NOVEC-649, FC-72), organic liquids (Acetone, Pentane) and deionized water.In the first step, nanoparticle coatings on copper surfaces were prepared by an electrophoretic deposition method, with Cu-Zn nanoparticles (100 nm) and Cu nanoparticles (150 nm).
