  2. 21. Active magnetoplasmonics for nanoscale distances sensing

    Author : Irina Zubritskaya; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cobalt; magnetoplasmonics; plasmon ruler; magneto-optical Kerr effect MOKE ; nickel; dimer; localized surface plasmon resonance;

    Abstract : Magnetoplasmonics is an emerging field within nano-photonics that operates with the combination of propagating or localized surface plasmons and magnetism. Active and adaptive magnetoplasmonic components that are capable of controlling light on the nanoscale with external weak magnetic fields are envisioned to push the development of integrated photonic circuits, high-density data storage, or the advanced schemes for bio- and chemo-sensing.

  4. 22. Active Flow Control for Drag Reduction of Heavy Vehicles

    Author : Mohammad El-Alti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active and Passive Flow Control; Tilt-rotor wing; Large-eddySimulation; Heavy vehicles; optimization; Full-scale road test; Trucks; Bluff-body; Wake; Drag reduction; Aircrafts; Response surface methodology; Synthetic-jet Actuator;

    Abstract : This thesis considers the aerodynamics of trucks. The work focuses on the aerodynamic drag caused by the wake. Bluff-body flows are dominated by large dissipative vortex-shedding wakes with a low mean pressure compared to the high pressure on their frontal area. READ MORE

  5. 23. Evaluation of new active technology for low-energy houses

    Author : Henrik Davidsson; Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low-quality heat; hybrid ventilation; heat recovery; active house; solar window; PV T hybrid; building integration; TRNSYS;

    Abstract : Using energy at low-quality levels opens up new possibilities for low-energy houses. Low-quality energy can be heat at a temperature that is close to that of its surrounding, and can be used, for example, to pre-heat ventilation air or domestic hot water. READ MORE

  6. 24. Protection and treatment of hypothermia in prehospital trauma care : with emphasis on active warming

    Author : Peter Lundgren; Ulf Björnstig; Peter Naredi; Tore Vikström; Anne Guttormsen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hypothermia; kirurgi; Surgery;

    Abstract : Background: In prehospital trauma care active warming is recommended to aid in protection from further cooling. However, scientific evidence of the effectiveness of active warming in a clinical setting is scarce. Also, evaluating the effectiveness of active warming, especially in harsh ambient conditions, by objective measures, is difficult. READ MORE

  7. 25. Structure, Morphology, and Catalytic Properties of CuOx/CeO2 Model Catalysts

    Author : Björn Skårman; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synchrotron radiation; High-energy Diffraction; X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy.; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemistry; Kemi; Material technology; Materiallära; materialteknik; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; Atomic force microscopy; Gatan Image Filter GIF ; Energy-filtered TEM; High-resolution electron microscopy; Inert gas condensation IGC ; rf Magnetron sputtering; Thermal activation; Batch reactor; Carbon monoxide oxidation; Surface sensitivity; Catalytic anisotropy; Growth; Nucleation; Topography; Roughness; Core-shell structures; Morphology; Nanostructured; Nanocomposite; Nanoparticles; Surface structure; Polycrystalline surfaces; Thin films; Copper oxide; Cerium dioxide CeO2 ; Ceria;

    Abstract : Cerium dioxide, or ceria, is a chemically stable oxygen ion conducting material with a capacity to store and release oxygen, and is therefore extensively used in combustion catalysts. The Cu-Ce-O system has been identified as one of the most active catalysts for the combustion of carbon monoxide. READ MORE
