  2. 11. Numerical Investigation of Rotating and Stratified Turbulence

    Author : Enrico Deusebio; Erik Lindborg; Johan Nilsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geostrophic turbulence; stable stratification; rotation; wall-bounded turbulence; gravity waves; atmospherical dynamics; direct numertical simulations; SRA - E-Science SeRC ; SRA - E-vetenskap SeRC ;

    Abstract : Atmospheric and oceanic flows are strongly affected by rotation and stratification. Rotation is exerted through Coriolis forces which mainly act in horizontal planes whereas stratification largely affects the motion along the vertical direction through buoyancy forces, the latters related to the vertical variation of the fluid density.

  4. 12. Chemical and Biochemical Biorefineries in Kraft Pulp Mills – Process Integration and Economics for Three Concepts

    Author : Valeria Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bottleneck; ethanol; biorefinery; energy efficiency; process integration; pulp mill; high gravity;

    Abstract : Some of the advantages of integrating biorefinery concepts with kraft pulp mills are that the utility system can be shared and that mass and energy streams can be exported from the pulp mill to the biorefinery or vice versa. These measures may result in lower investments and operating costs for the biorefinery compared with stand-alone operations. READ MORE

  5. 13. Phenomenological Studies in Cosmoparticle Physics : Expansion Histories in non-Einstein Gravity and Dark Matter at the Large Hadron Collider

    Author : Sara Rydbeck; Joakim Edsjö; Laura Covi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : As the Big Bang model has become established, the fields of cosmology and particle physics have become intertwined. A range of observations forces us to consider the phenomena of dark matter and dark energy. READ MORE

  6. 14. Cosmoparticle Physics and String Theory

    Author : Stefan Sjörs; Marcus Berg; Joseph Conlon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Supersymmetry; dark matter; cosmology; inflation; modifications of gravity; string theory; flux compactifications; perturbative string theory; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with phenomenological and theoretical aspects of cosmoparticle physics and string theory. There are many open questions in these topics. In connection with cosmology we would like to understand the detailed properties of dark matter, dark energy, generation of primordial perturbations, etc. READ MORE

  7. 15. Gravitational waves from primordial magnetic sources

    Author : Yutong He; Axel Brandenburg; David Weir; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis gives an overview of modified gravity and primordial magnetic fields,bridged by gravitational waves (GWs) as a phenomenological probe of both sectors.First we derive the GW equation in a homogeneous and isotropic background from general relativity. READ MORE
