  1. 1. On the Arctic Boundary Layer : From Turbulence to Climate

    Författare :Thorsten Mauritsen; Gunilla Svensson; Joao Teixeira; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Atmospheric boundary layers; Turbulence; Stable stratification; Gravity waves; Mesoscale motion; Arctic climate; Meteorology; Meteorologi; atmosfärvetenskap; Atmospheric Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The boundary layer is the part of the atmosphere that is in direct contact with the ground via turbulent motion. At mid-latitudes the boundary layer is usually one or a few kilometers deep, while in the Arctic it is much more shallow, typically a few hundred meters or less. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Phase-field modeling of surface-energy driven processes

    Författare :Klara Asp Grönhagen; John Ågren; Suzana Fries; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phase-field method; surface energy; solute drag; solid-state sintering; multicomponent multiphase flow; wetting; liquid-phase sintering; spinodal decomposition; CALPHAD; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Surface energy plays a major role in many phenomena that are important in technological and industrial processes, for example in wetting, grain growth and sintering. In this thesis, such surface-energy driven processes are studied by means of the phase-field method. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Metal film growth on weakly-interacting substrates : Multiscale modeling

    Författare :Víctor Gervilla Palomar; Kostas Sarakinos; Georgios Almyras; Davide Giuseppe Sangiovanni; Michael Tringides; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Thin films are nanoscale layers of material used to functionalize surfaces or to serve as building blocks in more complex devices. In recent years, thin metal films have become vital for modern devices within, e.g. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Total Energy Calculations for Predictive Modeling of Crystalline Materials Strength

    Författare :Jan Hartford; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Materials properties depend on phenomena in a hierarchical order from atomic to macroscopic scales. This thesis studies possibilities for electron-structure and total-energy calculations to provide results that are valuable for the modeling of crystalline materials strength. LÄS MER
