  2. 21. T cell responses in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis : friends or foes?

    Author : Solmaz Yazdani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an idiopathic fatal neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by the loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Inflammation is widely recognized as a hallmark of this disease; however, the intricate relationship between immune biomarkers and the pathogenesis of ALS is not fully understood yet. READ MORE

  4. 22. Aerodynamics of two trucks driving in close-proximity

    Author : Johannes Törnell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; drag; aerodynamics; cab over engine; inter-vehicle distance; lateral offset; side wind; truck; platooning; yaw; close proximity; wake;

    Abstract : There are several factors driving the development of vehicles with higher efficiency in society, chief among them are the emissions of greenhouse gases and their contribution to global warming. Therefore, there is a strong incentive to improve heavy-duty trucks' energy efficiency, supported by new legislation. READ MORE

  5. 23. Coriolis generated secondary currents and their effects on turbulent channel flow

    Author : Rolf Larsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vattenteknik; Water Resources Engineering;

    Abstract : The influence of secondary currents on various hydrodynamic processes in channel flow is discussed. Different mechanisms that generate secondary currents are presented. READ MORE

  6. 24. Accurate quadrature and fast summation in boundary integral methods for Stokes flow

    Author : Joar Bagge; Anna-Karin Tornberg; Katarina Gustavsson; Adrianna Gillman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns accurate and efficient numerical methods for the simulation of fluid flow on the microscale, known as Stokes flow or creeping flow. Such flows are important, for example, in understanding the swimming of microorganisms, spreading of dust particles, as well as in developing new nano-materials, and microfluidic devices that can be used for on-the-fly analysis of blood samples, among other things.

  7. 25. Permafrost Groundwater Dynamics : Modeling of vertical and lateral flows in the active layer across multiple scales

    Author : Alexandra Hamm; Andrew Frampton; Peter Kuhry; Jeffrey McKenzie; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; permafrost; climate change; numerical modeling; hydrogeology; groundwater; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Abstract : Hydrological processes in the Arctic are profoundly influenced by the presence of permanently frozen ground, known as permafrost. Conversely, permafrost is greatly affected by hydrological changes resulting from climate change. READ MORE
