  1. 1. New methods and applications for interferometric GNSS reflectometry

    Författare :Joakim Strandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sea level; sea ice; GNSS; reflectometry;

    Sammanfattning : The GNSS reflectometry technique has been proven to be usable for measuring several environmental properties, such as soil moisture, snow depth, vegetation, and sea level. As numerous GNSS installations are already installed around the world for geodetic purposes, the technique opens up a large data set for new analyses, complementing other environmental measurement campaigns.

  2. 2. Inverse modelling of GNSS multipath signals

    Författare :Joakim Strandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GNSS; reflectometry; sea ice; sea level;

    Sammanfattning : Measuring the world around us is necessary to observe and understand the changes that occur in our environment. A widely distributed network of measurement stations can help us to understand ongoing and predict future climate change. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Grazing incidence small angle neutron scattering as a tool to study curved biomembranes on nanostructured surfaces

    Författare :Karolina Mothander; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GISANS; Reflectometry; Neutron scattering; Phospholipid; supported lipid bilayer; Nanowires; confocal microscopy; QCM-D;

    Sammanfattning : Curvature in lipid-based biomembranes provides compartmentalization in cells and can act as regulator of biological activity in living systems. The study of these biomembranes require novel model systems and new methods. In this work I have used a supported phospholipid bilayer on a hexagonal array of silicon nanowires. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Opportunities and challenges of surface scattering at next generation neutron sources

    Författare :Franz Alois Adlmann; Henrich Frielinghaus; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GISANS; data reduction; off-specular; neutron scattering; reflectometry; complex fluids; rheology;

    Sammanfattning : Complex fluids and soft matter are ubiquitously found in the world and all contacts in life are made over surfaces. To describe the mechanical behavior of such substances, rheological methods are used. Flow instabilities are a big challenge in rheology since they will be reflected in the macroscopic variables probed, like e. g. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Inhibition of Aluminium Pigments for Waterborne Coatings

    Författare :Philip Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydrogen evolution; AFM; surfactant; aluminium pigment; polymer; silica stabilisation; water based; adsorption; inhibition; waterborne; printing ink; QCM-D; AAS; reflectometry; encapsulation; paint; metallic pigment; coating; XPS;

    Sammanfattning : Micrometer-sized aluminium flakes for use as pigments in waterborne coatings need protection, since the reaction between aluminium and water causes formation of aluminium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The aluminium hydroxide destroys the metallic appearance of the pigment flakes and the evolution of hydrogen gas leads to a dangerous pressure build-up in the paint containers. LÄS MER
