  1. 21. On Monte Carlo Operators for Studying Collisional Relaxation in Toroidal Plasmas

    Författare :Qaisar Mukhtar; Torbjörn Hellsten; Tainia Kurki-Suonio; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion plasma; thermonuclear fusion; tokamak; Coulomb collisions; stochastic differential equations with singular diffusion coefficients; Monte Carlo schemes; spatial diffusion; modelling; Fokker-Planck equation; RF-heating.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns modelling of Coulomb collisions in toroidal plasma with Monte Carlo operators, which is important for many applications such as heating, current drive and collisional transport in fusion plasmas. Collisions relax the distribution functions towards local isotropic ones and transfer power to the background species when they are perturbed e. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Translational Tumor Drug Delivery : Doxorubicin formulation performance, intracellular uptake and molecular diffusion

    Författare :Oliver Degerstedt; Hans Lennernäs; Erik Sjögren; Per Hansson; Jessica Rosenholm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; doxorubicin; drug diffusion; cellular uptake; drug delivery; PBPK modelling; hepatocellular carcinoma; emulsion; IC50; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Globally, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of liver cancer and a leading cause of cancer death. One important risk factor is liver cirrhosis and the disease progression is characterized by deposition of extracellular matrix proteins that form a fibrous network, which increases liver stiffness and may limit the effectiveness of different treatment strategies.

  4. 23. Meso-scale modelling of composites and semi-crystalline polymers

    Författare :Fritjof Nilsson; Mikael Hedenqvist; Ulf Gedde; Hans Ågren; Göran Grimvall; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; semi-crystalline polymers; simulations; diffusion; electrostatics; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Applied mathematics; Tillämpad matematik; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis covers the first few steps of a multi-scale computer simulation strategy for predicting physical properties of complex polymers like composites and semi-crystalline polymers. Meso-scale simulations of crystallization and solvent diffusion in polyethylene as well as simulations examining the geometrical impact on the effective permittivity of composites have been performed.

  5. 24. Mathematical modelling approach to collective decision-making

    Författare :Natalia Zabzina; Denis Gaidashev; Torbjörn Lundh; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :collective behaviour; collective decision-making; communication mechanisms; positive feedback; mathematical modelling; bifurcation phenomena; steady state solutions; symmetry breaking; symmetry restoring; diffusion-limited aggregation; fractal dimension;

    Sammanfattning : In everyday situations individuals make decisions. For example, a tourist usually chooses a crowded or recommended restaurant to have dinner. Perhaps it is an individual decision, but the observed pattern of decision-making is a collective phenomenon. LÄS MER

  7. 25. III-V Nanowire Array Solar Cells: Optical and Electrical Modelling

    Författare :Yang Chen; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semiconductor solar cell; nanowire array; modelling; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Chen;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes optical and electrical modelling of vertically oriented III-V semiconductor nanowire array solar cells (NWASCs).In the optical studies, three-dimensional electromagnetic modelling was carried out with the scattering matrix method and the finite element method.
