  1. 16. Numerical and experimental modelling for wave energy arrays optimization

    Author : Marianna Giassi; Malin Göteman; Jan Isberg; Gregorio Iglesias; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave energy; Point absorber; Arrays; Parks; Farms; Optimization; Array layout; Genetic algorithm; Cost function; Wave tank experiment; Hydrodynamics; Economical model; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Many wave power conversion devices, especially point-absorbers, do not provide alone the necessary amount of converted electricity to be cost effective, instead they are designed to be deployed in arrays of many units. Such arrays, or parks, can satisfy a large-scale energy demand, reduce the costs of the produced electricity and improve the reliability of the system. READ MORE

  2. 17. Input Calibration, Code Validation and Surrogate Model Development for Analysis of Two-phase Circulation Instability and Core Relocation Phenomena

    Author : Viet-Anh Phung; Pavel Kudinov; Cristophe Demaziere; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Reactor system code; input calibration; code validation; surrogate model; two-phase circulation flow instability; in-vessel core relocation; genetic algorithm; artificial neural network; Reaktorsystemkod; indata kalibrering; kodvalidering; surrogatmodell; två-fas cirkulationsflöde; instabilitet; härdrelokering i reaktortanken; genetisk algoritm; artificiella neurala nätverk; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Code validation and uncertainty quantification are important tasks in nuclear reactor safety analysis. Code users have to deal with large number of uncertain parameters, complex multi-physics, multi-dimensional and multi-scale phenomena. READ MORE

  3. 18. Analysis and Design of Base Station Antennas for Mobile Communications

    Author : Björn Lindmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polarization diversity; dual polarization; adaptive antennas; moment method; genetic algorithm; antenna arrays; radio propagation; channel sounding; aperture coupled patch;

    Abstract : The thesis deals with base station antennas and the environment they work in. Polarization diversity, dual band operation, and adaptive antenna systems are discussed with emphasis on how antennas for these applications should be designed. We compare the polarization diversity performance of different types of dual polarized antenna elements. READ MORE

  4. 19. Prediction of 3D structures of oligosaccharides. Methodological development and studies on saccharide antigens of interest for vaccine design

    Author : Jimmy Rosen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Oligosaccharide; conformation; 3D structure; O-antigen; Shigella dysenteriae; Escherichia coli; Burkholderia cepacia; Schistosoma mansoni; filtered systematic search; genetic algorithm;

    Abstract : This thesis presents 3D structure predictions of five immunologically active surfacepolysaccharides of pathogens, which are of interest as targets for development of glycoconjugatevaccines. Furthermore it describes two methods which have been used for theconformational predictionsThe Shigella dysenteriae type 2 Oantigenwas predicted to form a compact helicalstructure with three repeating pentasaccharide units per turn.

  5. 20. Stiffness modification of tensegrity structures

    Author : Seif Dalilsafaei; Anders Eriksson; Karl-Gunnar Olsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : tensegrity; boom; finite element analysis; genetic algorithm; flexibility analysis; active structure; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Although the concept of tensegrity structures was invented in the beginning of the twentieth century, the applications of these structures are limited, partially due to their low stiffness. The stiffness of tensegrities comes from topology, configuration, pre-stress and initial axial element stiffnesses. READ MORE
