11. Parallel computing of fluid flow through porous media
Abstract : Fluid flow through porous media takes place in a variety of technical areas including ground water flow, flow through embankment dams, paper making, composites manufacturing, filtering, drying and sintering of iron ore pellets. When modelling these kinds of flows it is common practice to use averaging techniques rather than computing the detailed flow field in every single pore. READ MORE

12. Fluid flow through and deformation of wood fiber networks
Abstract : Cellulose-based commercial items such as paper and laminated flooring are vital to the local economy of northern Sweden. These products are commonly manufactured in suspension where fluids such as water or air are drained through the fiber network in some value-added steps in the manufacturing process. READ MORE

13. Noise radiation from drill steels : and other experimental investigations in acoustics and fluid mechanics
Abstract : Drill rod noise has become a major noise source in percussive drilling. Generation of flexural waves, which seem to be responsible for most of the noise, is studied in a model with dynamic photoelasticity and in the real drill rod with strain gauge technique. READ MORE

14. Experimental studies of large particles in Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids
Abstract : In everyday human life, laminar flow is arguably an exception whereas turbulent flow is the norm. Yet, the former has been much better understood, naturally since laminar flow renders itself to treatment in a relatively easier fashion compared to turbulence with its chaotic dynamics across multiple scales in space and time.

15. Models of porous, elastic and rigid materials in moving fluids
Abstract : Tails, fins, scales, and surface coatings are used by organisms for various tasks, including locomotion. Since millions of years of evolution have passed, we expect that the design of surface structures is optimal for the tasks of the organism. These structures serve as an inspiration in this thesis to identify new mechanisms for flow control. READ MORE
