  2. 6. Applications of ocean transport modelling

    Author : Hanna Corell; Kristofer Döös; Björn Kjerfve; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ocean transport modelling; connectivity; particle-tracking; sediment transport; Forsmark; marine protected areas; MPA; stream functions; heat flux; wind forcing; Carcinus maenas; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Abstract : The advective motion of seawater governs the transport of almost everything, animate or inanimate, present in the ocean and those lacking the ability to outswim the currents have to follow the flow. This makes modelling of advective ocean transports a powerful tool in various fields of science where a displacement of something over time is studied. READ MORE

  4. 7. Gyrokinetic simulations of turbulent particle and heat transport in tokamaks

    Author : Daniel Tegnered; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; plasma physics; turbulence; transport; gyrokinetics; TEM; ITG; impurities; fusion; Joint European Torus;

    Abstract : Fusion power is one of few viable sustainable means of energy production. The tokamak is arguable the most mature technology to magnetically confine fusion plasmas. In these devices, heat and particle transport is dominated by small-scale turbulent fluctuations. READ MORE

  5. 8. Simulations of Coastal Atmospheric Dynamics and Transport Processes

    Author : Ragothaman Sundararajan; Dimitris Melas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; coastal atmosphere; dynamics; transport; Lagrangian particle dispersion model; mesoscale model; turbulence; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Meteorology; meteorologi;

    Abstract : The marine atmosphere can be highly variable in space and time, and the coastal terrain plays a crucial role in influencing its properties. These, in turn, determine the atmospheric transport in the coastal zone. READ MORE

  6. 9. DEM Modelling of Unbound Granular Materials for Transport Infrastructures : On soil fabric and rockfill embankments

    Author : Ricardo de Frias Lopez; Johan Silfwerbrand; Leena Korkiala-Tanttu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discrete element method; granular materials; particle-scale behaviour; particle degradation; permanent deformation; resilient modulus; rockfill embankment; soil fabric; Diskreta elementmetoden; grusmaterial; verkningssätt på partikelnivå; nedbrytning; permanent deformation; styvhet; stenfylld bank; skelettstruktur; Transport Infrastructure; Transportinfrastruktur;

    Abstract : Unbound granular materials (UGM) are widely used as load-bearing layers and for embankment construction within transport infrastructures. These play a significant role on operation and maintenance of transportation systems. However, pavement and railway engineering still today rely heavily on empirical models based on macroscopic observations. READ MORE

  7. 10. Experimental study of bubble dynamics and transport

    Author : Gunilla Andrée; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiforskning; Energy research; Particle Streak Photography; Shadowgraph; Particle Image Velocimetry; Bubble dynamics; bubble transport;

    Abstract : The thesis concerns experimental studies of bubble motion and the transport of large particles and bubbles. Bubbly flows are encountered in many engineering applications where the bubbles play an important role for the mass transfer between the phases, e.g. in stirred reactors. READ MORE
