2. 21. Structure and properties of FeAl as influenced by processing

   Author : HELENA SKOGLUND; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; EDS; mechanical alloying; FeAl; Al2O3 precipitates; boron-doping; powder processing; diffusion; vacancies; mechanical properties; hardening mechanisms;

   Abstract : Iron aluminides are candidate materials for a sustainable society since they are composed of abundant metals and have excellent corrosion properties in combination with high specific strength. However, there are some drawbacks that limit the practical use, e.g. low RT ductility and a drop in strength at high temperature. READ MORE

4. 22. Diffusion-Induced Nonlinear Dynamics in Carbon Nanomechanical Resonators

   Author : Christin Edblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mass sensing; graphene; stochastic differential equations; diffusion; carbon nanotubes; resonators; nanoelectromechanical systems; equations of motion; nonlinear dynamics; dissipation; Fokker-Planck equation; noise; nonequilibrium dynamics;

   Abstract : The emergence of nanoelectromechanical systems has enabled the development of sensors capable of detecting mass, charge, force, position, and spin with an unprecedented precision. In particular, the low mass, high resonant frequency, and high quality factor of carbon nanomechanical resonators make them ideal for the creation of a high sensitivity mass sensor. READ MORE

5. 23. Heterogeneous Materials - Diffusion, Laplace Spectrum, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

   Author : Matias Nordin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; eigenfunctions; eigenvalues; propagator; diffusion; Laplace operator; Nuclear Magnetic Resonance;

   Abstract : In this thesis diffusion in heterogeneous materials is studied using spectral analysisof the Laplace operator. Relations to the effective diffusion constant and therelaxation rate of the time-dependent diffusion coefficient for porous systems arederived from the Laplace operator’s spectrum. READ MORE

6. 24. Machinability of Single-phase Materials : Surface integrity and tool wear analysis

   Author : Mike Olsson; Industriell Produktion; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machinability; Niobium; Tungsten; Oxygen-free copper; Surface integrity; Tool wear;

   Abstract : The quality and performance of products are particularly important in sectors such as research facilities and in the nuclear, military and space industries. These sectors make use of high-performance materials that are uncommon in other contexts and therefore place high requirements on personnel, machines and tools. READ MORE

7. 25. Nanoplasmonics for solar cells

   Author : Viktoria Gusak; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enhanced near-field; adsorption; titanium dioxide; Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance; amorphous hydrogenated Silicon; diffusion; Langmuir kinetics; Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell; plasmonic nanoparticle; mesoporous material; diffusion-front model;

   Abstract : The main source of our energy system, the fossil fuels, will eventually be depleted and also pose environmental and climate hazards. There is thus a need for alternative, renewable energy sources. Solar (photovoltaic) cells will play an important role as one of them. READ MORE
