  2. 1. The Ageing of Fuel Lines Based on Polyamide-12

    Author : Kai J. Kallio; Mikael Hedenqvist; Mikael Rigdahl; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pipes; ethanol; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Today, the use of bio-fuels for cars is increasing. There is a wide range of biofuelsavailable world wide, in Sweden ethanol containing fuels are favoured.For car manufacturers there is a need to be able to predict short and long termproperties of fuel lines subjected to ethanol containing fuels to ensure properlong term behaviour.

  4. 2. The simulation of car and truck tyre vibrations, rolling resistance and rolling noise

    Author : Carsten Hoever; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rolling resistance; rolling noise; tyres; vibrations; waveguide finite element; tyre road interac- tion; BEM; fuel efficiency; parameter study; road surface properties; numerical modelling;

    Abstract : The road transportation sector places a severe burden on the environment in the form of CO2 emissions and road traffic noise. Both of these environmental prob- lems can be related to car and truck tyres. READ MORE

  5. 3. Analysis of Fatigue Characteristics in Mooring Lines and Low Voltage Cables for Wave Energy Converters

    Author : Shun-Han Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wave energy converter; de-coupled analysis; power cable; fatigue; dynamic cable; heaving point absorber; mooring line; coupled analysis; power absorption; marine biofouling effect on absorbed power; low voltage cable; catenary mooring chain; marine biofouling effect on fatigue;

    Abstract : To reduce both carbon emission and fossil fuel consumption, there is a pressing need for the exploitation of renewable sources of energy such as biomass, hydropower, solar power, waves, and wind. This thesis addresses the application of wave energy, which has a large potential to contribute to the world’s renewable emission-free energy supply. READ MORE

  6. 4. Analysis of Seismic Data Acquired at the Forsmark Site for Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, Central Sweden

    Author : Fatemeh Sharifi Brojerdi; Christopher Juhlin; Alireza Malehmir; Bjarne Almqvist; Ramon Carbonell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Forsmark site; anisotropy; deformation zone; reflection seismic; shear-wave splitting; fractures and traveltime tomography;

    Abstract : The Forsmark area, the main study area in this thesis, is located about 140 km north of Stockholm, central Sweden. It belongs to the Paleoproterozoic Svecokarelian orogen and contains several major ductile and brittle deformation zones including the Forsmark, Eckarfjärden and Singö zones. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of Lepidium campestre into a new oil and catch crop

    Author : Emelie Ivarson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : A growing world population and dwindling fossil oil reserves demand an increase in the world plant oil production. The possibility to increase the area of cultivated land is limited due to the shortage of arable land. Also, the possibility for increasing the oil content in the limited number of cultivated oil crops is restricted. READ MORE
