2. 1. Numerical Methods for Turbomachinery Aeromechanical Predictions

   Author : Maria Angelica Mayorca; Damian Vogt; Torsten Fransson; Robert Kielb; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aeromechanics; numerical tools; methods; turbomachinery; aeroelasticity; gas turbines; vibrations;

   Abstract : In both aviation and power generation, gas turbines are used as key components. An important driver of technological advance in gas turbines is the race towards environmentally friendly machines, decreasing the fuel burn, community noise and NOx emissions. READ MORE

4. 2. Numerical Methods for Wave Propagation : Analysis and Applications in Quantum Dynamics

   Author : Emil Kieri; Sverker Holmgren; Vasile Gradinaru; Hans O. Karlsson; Tobias Jahnke; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational wave propagation; quantum dynamics; time-dependent Schrödinger equation; spectral methods; Gaussian beams; splitting methods; low-rank approximation; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

   Abstract : We study numerical methods for time-dependent partial differential equations describing wave propagation, primarily applied to problems in quantum dynamics governed by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE). We consider both methods for spatial approximation and for time stepping. READ MORE

   Abstract : Linear matrix equations and nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NEP) appear in a wide variety of applications in science and engineering. Important special cases of the former are the Lyapunov equation, the Sylvester equation, and their respective generalizations. These appear, e.g. READ MORE

6. 4. Terrain Modelling with GIS for Tectonic Geomorphology : Numerical Methods and Applications

   Author : Gyözö Jordan; Ulf Qvarfort; Tsehaie Woldai; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; digital elevation model; digital terrain modelling; GIS; morphometry; tectonic geomorphology; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Analysis of digital elevation models (DEMs) by means of geomorphometry provides means of recognising fractures and characterising the morphotectonics of an area in a quantitative way. The objective of the thesis is to develop numerical methods and a consistent GIS methodology for tectonic geomorphology and apply it to test sites. READ MORE

7. 5. Towards improved motorcycle helmet test methods for head impact protection : Using experimental and numerical methods

   Author : Shiyang Meng; Svein Kleiven; Peter Halldin; Mazdak Ghajari; KTH; []
   Keywords : Head Injuries; Helmet; Injury Prevention; Motorcycle; Test Standard; Finite Element Method; Applied Medical Technology; Tillämpad medicinsk teknik;

   Abstract : Head injury is the leading cause of death and major trauma for users of powered two-wheelers (PTWs). Helmet use can prevent and reduce head injuries when a crash is inevitable. However, today’s motorcycle helmets do not protect equally against all types of head injuries. READ MORE
