   Nyckelord :Hydrological transport; travel time; water age; tracer discharge; Lagrangian pathway approach; pathway lengths; numerical modeling; Land and Water Resources Engineering; Mark- och vattenteknik;

   Sammanfattning : This focuses on hydrological transport in shallow catchments with topography-driven flow paths. The thesis gives new insight to kinematic pathway models for estimation of tracer discharge at the catchment outlet. LÄS MER

3. 7. On Mesoscale Modelling of Coupled Chloride-Moisture Transport in Concrete

   Författare :Filip Nilenius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coupled diffusion; concrete; moisture; mesoscale; chloride ions.; Multiscale modelling; computational homogenization;

   Sammanfattning : The service life behaviour of concrete structures is highly influenced by the ingress of chloride ions. At sufficiently high concentrations, chloride ions can initiate corrosion of embedded reinforcement bars, which may substantially reduce the structure's bearing capacity and ultimately lead to structural collapse.

4. 8. Computational Techniques for Coupled Flow-Transport Problems

   Författare :Martin Kronbichler; Gunilla Kreiss; Jean-Luc Guermond; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Finite element method; saddle point systems; two-phase flow; level set method; phase field method; stabilization; contact line dynamics; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents numerical techniques for solving problems of incompressible flow coupled to scalar transport equations using finite element discretizations in space. The two applications considered in this thesis are multi-phase flow, modeled by level set or phase field methods, and planetary mantle convection based on the Boussinesq approximation. LÄS MER

5. 9. Charge Transport in Semiconductor Nanowire Quantum Devices: From Single Quantum Dots to Topological Superconductors

   Författare :Mingtang Deng; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multiple Andreev reflection; SQUID; Proximity effect; the Josephson effect; Cooper pair; the Kondo effect; the Zeeman effect; Quantum dot; InSb; Nanowires; Transport; Fysicumarkivet A:2013:Deng; Majorana bound state; Yu-Shiba-Rusinov state; Andreev bound state;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on charge transport in semiconductor InSb nanowire quantum devices, including the electron transport, the hole transport, and the Cooper pair transport. Devices in which InSb semiconductor nanowire quantum dots are coupled with normal metals, superconductors or the proximity effect induced topological superconductors are fabricated and measured.

7. 10. Stress, Flow and Particle Transport in Rock Fractures

   Författare :Tomofumi Koyama; Lanru Jing; Marc Boulon; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Numerical simulation; laboratory experiments; rock fracture; coupled stress-flow-tracer test; shear displacement; fluid flow; particle transport; finite element method FEM ; particle tracking method; Navier-Stokes equation; Reynolds equation; streamline velocity dispersion.; Geoengineering; Geoteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The fluid flow and tracer transport in a single rock fracture during shear processes has been an important issue in rock mechanics and is investigated in this thesis using Finite Element Method (FEM) and streamline particle tracking method, considering evolutions of aperture and transmissivity with shear displacement histories under different normal stresses, based on laboratory tests. The distributions of fracture aperture and its evolution during shear were calculated from the initial aperture fields, based on the laser-scanned surface roughness features of replicas of rock fracture specimens, and shear dilations measured during the coupled shear-flow-tracer tests in laboratory performed using a newly developed testing apparatus in Nagasaki University, Nagasaki, Japan.
