  1. 1. Footwear for cold environments : thermal properties, performance and testing

    Author : Kalev Kuklane; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial Work Environment; Industriell produktionsmiljö;

    Abstract : Footwear with various insulation levels was evaluated. Some footwear was manufactured both with and without steel toe cap. Comparative studies between various methods (thermal foot model, human subjects, EN 344) were carried out. Data from subjects and foot model were used in evaluation of thermal properties of footwear.

  3. 3. Ice free roads using hydronic heating pavement with low temperature: Thermal properties of asphalt concretes and numerical simulations

    Author : Raheb Mirzanamadi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal properties; slippery condition; hydronic heating pavement; energy harvesting; asphalt concrete; road; anti-icing; finite element method;

    Abstract : A traditional method to mitigate the slippery conditions of a road is to spread out salt and sand on the road surface. However, salting causes corrosion on the road infrastructures, damage to surrounding vegetation and salification of fresh water. Hence, there is a need for alternative solutions to mitigate the slippery conditions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Thermal properties of materials from first principles

    Author : Olle Hellman; Sergey Simak; Igor Abrikosov; Risto Nieminen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the search of clean and efficient energy sources intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells are among the prime candidates. What sets the limit of their efficiency is the solid electrolyte. A promising material for the electrolyte is ceria. READ MORE

  5. 5. Theoretical Investigations of Two-Dimensional Materials : Studies on Electronic, Magnetic, Mechanical, and Thermal Properties

    Author : Xin Chen; Biplab Sanyal; Susanne Mirbt; Kristian Sommer Thygsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 2D materials; DFT; Structure search; Functional materials; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been paid enormous attention since the first realization of graphene in 2004, in connection to high-speed flexible electronics, 2D magnetism, optoelectronics, and so on. Apart from graphene, many new 2D materials with special properties have been predicted and synthesized. READ MORE
