  2. 1. Red Glass Coloration : a Colorimetric and Structural Study

    Author : Torun Bring; Lars Kloo; Alicia Duran; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta arbete har varit att försöka hitta alternativ till det kadmiumbase¬rade röda pigment som används idag. Detta har gjorts genom att delvis under¬söka kombinationer av grundämnen som i litteraturen finns omnämnda som röda glaspigment, delvis genom att försöka förbättra och underlätta produktionen av redan kända, men problematiska pigment.

  4. 2. Housing Aquaporins in Nanostructured Glass

    Author : Simon Isaksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Membrane protein; Water; Interface; Aquaporin; Silica; Formation; Silicification;

    Abstract : Proteins are a group of biomolecules that perform versatile tasks, which in many cases are essential for life. The magnitude of their importance is perhaps expressed by the word protein itself, coined by the Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius in the summer of 1838. READ MORE

  5. 3. Annealed Glass Failure Modelling : A Weakest-Link Approach with Statistical Analysis

    Author : David Kinsella; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; glass strength; structural glass; Weibull distribution; weakest-link system; statistical analysis; experimental tests; numerical modelling; finite element method; fracture mechanics;

    Abstract : Novel and increased use of glass in building construction has been made possible, as a result of methods of mass production introduced during the 20th century and advanced computational structural analyses. With modern use of glass structures, a range of demands emerge which need to be addressed in the strength design process. READ MORE

  6. 4. Standing up to a Multinational Giant : The Saint-Gobain World Council and the American Window Glass Workers' Strike in the American Saint Gobain Corporation in 1969

    Author : Fredrik Håkansson; Lars Olsson; Marcel van der Linden; Lars Berggren; Geert Van Goethem; Linnéuniversitetet; []

    Abstract : In the 1960s, a large number of World Councils were founded in a number of industrial branches. One of the most recognized World Councils was established in the multinational glass manufacturer Compagnie de Saint-Gobain in 1969, in connection to an international trade union action against the company.

  7. 5. Laser processing of Silica based glass

    Author : Patrik Holmberg; Fredrik Laurell; Valerio Pruneri; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber Bragg Gratings; photosensitivity; Glass; laser machining; optical fibers; fiber sensor; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The main topic of this thesis work is photosensitivity and photo-structuring of optical fibers and bulk glass. Although research in the field of photosensitivity in glass and optical fibers has been ongoing for more than three decades, the underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. READ MORE
