  1. 11. Global stability analysis of complex fluids

    Författare :Iman Lashgari; Luca Brandt; Francois Gallaire; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-Newtonian flow; Carreau model; Oldroyd-B model; FENE-P model; modal analysis; nonmodal analysis; sensitivity analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The main focus of this work is on the non-Newtonian effects on the inertial instabilities in shear flows. Both inelastic (Carreau) and elastic models (Oldroyd-B and FENE-P) have been employed to examine the main features of the non-Newtonian fluids; shear-thinning, shear-thickening and elasticity.

  3. 12. Dynamic properties of two pedestrian timber bridges : Experimental and numerical analysis at several stages of construction

    Författare :Jens Bergenudd; Jean-Marc Battini; Roberto Crocetti; Patricia Hamm; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dynamic analysis; Modal analysis; Pedestrian bridge; Timber; Railings; Asphalt; Slip modulus; Finite element modelling; Dynamisk analys; Modal analys; Gång- och cykelbro; Trä; Räcken; Asfalt; Förskjutningsmodul; Finita element modellering.; Bro- och stålbyggnad; Structural Engineering and Bridges;

    Sammanfattning : Pedestrian bridges can beneficially be made from timber in order for our society to reach a sustainable future. This positive development is partly made possible due to advances in engineered wood products (e.g. glued laminated timber) and the possibilities for pre-fabrication of structural parts. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Stability of the free-surface problem arising in ice-sheet- and glacier modeling : Numerical investigation and stabilization

    Författare :André Löfgren; Josefin Ahlkrona; Fabien Gillet-Chaulet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ice-sheet modeling; glacier modeling; ice-sheet dynamics; free-surface flow; stability; stabilization; free-surface stabilization algorithm; Numerical Analysis; numerisk analys;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two papers dealing with a stabilization method for free-surface flows. The method was initially developed to stabilize mantle-convection simulations, but is in this work extended to ice-sheet- and glacier modeling. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Non-selfadjoint operator functions

    Författare :Axel Torshage; Christian Engström; Marco Marletta; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Non-linear spectral problem; numerical range; pseudospectrum; resolvent estimate; equivalence after extension; block operator matrices; operator functions; operator pencil; spectral divisor; joint numerical range; Mathematics; matematik;

    Sammanfattning : Spectral properties of linear operators and operator functions can be used to analyze models in nature. When dispersion and damping are taken into account, the dependence of the spectral parameter is in general non-linear and the operators are not selfadjoint. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Quantitative vulnerability analysis of electric power networks

    Författare :Åke J. Holmgren; Torbjörn Thedéen; Lars-Göran Mattsson; Terje Aven; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Safety Analysis; vulnerability; homeland security; risk analysis; network; electric power system; blackout; power law; statistical analysis; graph theory; branching process; game theory; Säkerhetsanalys; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Disturbances in the supply of electric power can have serious implications for everyday life as well as for national (homeland) security. A power outage can be initiated by natural disasters, adverse weather, technical failures, human errors, sabotage, terrorism, and acts of war. LÄS MER
