  1. 1. Forest edges in boreal landscapes - factors affecting edge influence

    Author : Ulrika Jansson; Per-Anders Esseen; Mats Nilsson; Timo Kuuluvainen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerial photographs; edge contrast; edge density; edge length; fetch size; forest fragmentation; lichen growth; line intersect sampling; pendulous lichen; photo interpretation; skogskant; flygbild; kantlängd; lav; Terrestrial ecology; Terrestisk ekologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Abstract : The boreal forest in Fennoscandia has been subjected to major loss and fragmentation of natural forests due to intensive forestry. This has resulted in that forest edges are now abundant and important landscape features. Edges have documented effects on the structure, function and biodiversity in forests. READ MORE

  2. 2. Edge Precoloring Extension of Trees

    Author : Fikre Bogale Petros; Carl Johan Casselgren; Armen Asratian; Lars-Daniel Öhman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Given a set of k colors and a graph G with a subset S of precolored edges (a partial k-edge coloring of G), we consider the problem of determining whether G has a proper edge coloring of G with the same k colors (an extension of the partial coloring) where the colors of edges in S are not changed. If such a coloring exists, then the partial k-coloring is called extendable. READ MORE

  3. 3. Analysis of Industrial Microwave Ovens

    Author : Magnus Sundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; source model; heat transfer; moment method; finite difference time domain; TM applicator; GMT; edge diffraction; thermal simulation; MMP; FDTD; generalized multipole technique; cost function; MM; optimization; magnetron; simulated annealing; multiple multipole program; microwave heating; edge overheating; TE applicator; tunnel-oven; applicator;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the analysis and design of microwave ovens used in the food industry. Such analysis is desirable in order to optimize the performance of the ovens and to reduce the time and expenses of developing new or improved ovens. READ MORE

  5. 5. Collisional transport in edge transport barriers and stellarators

    Author : Stefan Buller; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fusion; tokamak; plasma physics; stellarator; impurity transport; collisional transport; transport; pedestal;

    Abstract : Nuclear fusion has the potential to generate abundant and clean energy. In magnetic confinement fusion, the temperatures needed to achieve fusion are obtained by confining a hot plasma with magnetic fields. READ MORE
