1. Development, validation and application of an effective convectivity model for simulation of melt pool heat transfer in a light water reactor lower head
Sammanfattning : Severe accidents in a Light Water Reactor (LWR) have been a subject of the research for the last three decades. The research in this area aims to further understanding of the inherent physical phenomena and reduce the uncertainties surrounding their quantification, with the ultimate goal of developing models that can be applied to safety analysis of nuclear reactors.

2. The Effective Convectivity Model for Simulation and Analysis of Melt Pool Heat Transfer in a Light Water Reactor Pressure Vessel Lower Head
Sammanfattning : Severe accidents in a Light Water Reactor (LWR) have been a subject of intense research for the last three decades. The research in this area aims to reach understanding of the inherent physical phenomena and reduce the uncertainties in their quantification, with the ultimate goal of developing models that can be applied to safety analysis of nuclear reactors, and to evaluation of the proposed accident management schemes for mitigating the consequences of severe accidents.

3. Melt-water interactions in a reactor containment : from integrated assesment to phenomenological studies
Sammanfattning : This thesis examines melt-water interactions for theex-vessel phase of a severe reactor accident. The studies startfrom the development of an assessment methodology that tiestogether the vessel melt release scenarios and the mainprocesses affecting the melt-water interaction effects in thereactor containment.

4. On the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-Al alloys
Sammanfattning : The microstructural features and the mechanical properties of binary Mg-Al alloys have been investigated by using a gradient solidification technique. Homogeneous and nearly defect-free samples were produced under well controlled cooling conditions, through which the microstructural characteristics as well as the relationships between microstructure and mechanical properties in Mg-AI alloys were precisely defined.

5. Characteristics of cast magnesium alloys : microstructures, defects and mechanical properties
Sammanfattning : Magnesium is the lightest of all structural metals. As such, and combined with good mechanical and physical properties, it forms the basis for commercial alloys that have found successful use in a wide variety of applications. LÄS MER
