  1. 1. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Tower Dynamics and Noise

    Author : Erik Möllerström; Jonny Hylander; Fredric Ottermo; Göran Sidén; Hans Bernhoff; Mats Åbom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VAWT; H-rotor; eigenfrequency; semi-guy-wired tower; noise emission; sound power level;

    Abstract : Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have with time been outrivaled by the today common and economically feasible horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs). However, VAWTs have several advantages such as the possibility to put the drive train at ground level, lower noise emissions and better scaling behavior which still make them interesting for research.

The excavations focused on a rectangular tower built of heavy polygonal blocks, which was identified as belonging to a farmstead site during an earlier surface survey in the area. READ MORE

  5. 5. Cracks in the Ivory Tower : Antibiotics Research and the Changes in Academia 1980-2015

    Author : Carl Björvang; Alexandra Waluszewski; Lars Fälting; Oili-Helena Ylijoki; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; antibiotic research; academic capitalism; scientific discoveries; research policy; Swedish research; antibiotic resistance; antibacterial treatment; Ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

    Abstract : At the same time as resistance to antibiotics became an increasingly problematic health care concern around the world, major changes occurred in the condition scientists faced when conducting university-based research. This thesis aims to study these changes as they applied to antibacterial and bacteriological research, and how they influenced the researchers’ ability to make new scientific discoveries. READ MORE
