2. 1. Stability of tailings dams : focus on numerical modelling

   Author : Muhammad Auchar Zardari; Anders Sellgren; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Soil Mechanics; Geoteknik;

   Abstract : Upstream tailings dams may experience slope stability problems when the rate of raising is too fast. Tailings consolidate slowly due to low hydraulic conductivity. The excess pore pressures can build up due to accelerated rate of raising. READ MORE

4. 2. Numerical modelling of diapirism : influence of topography, sedimentation, erosion and viscoelastic-plastic rheologies

5. 3. Numerical modelling of the Cordilleran ice sheet

   Author : Julien Seguinot; Arjen Stroeven; Shawn Marshall; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical modelling; Cordilleran ice sheet; last glacial cycle; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

   Abstract : This doctoral dissertation presents a study of the glacial history of the North American Cordillera using numerical ice sheet modelling calibrated against field evidence. This area, characterized by the steep topography of several mountain ranges separated by large inter-montane depressions, was once covered by a large-scale ice mass: the former Cordilleran ice sheet.

6. 4. Numerical modelling of biomass thermochemical conversion and potassium release

   Author : Seyed Morteza Mousavi; Strömningsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Numerical modelling; particle model; bed model; CFD simulation; biomass; pyrolysis; ; combustion; gasification; potassium release; alkali;

   Abstract : The use of biomass as a renewable source of energy has been increasing over the past few decades, and biomass is regarded as a promising replacement for fossil fuels. Thermochemical conversion of biomass is a common approach for biomass utilization with a relatively short conversion time. READ MORE

   Abstract : The way the fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber is one of the most important parameters for the power output and the generation of emissions in the combustion of liquid fuels. The interaction beween the turbulent gas flow field and the liquid fuel droplets, the vaporisation of them and the mixing of the gaseous fuel with the ambient air that are vital parameters in the combustion process.
