21. Towards 6 Degrees of Freedom Seakeeping Simulations Using a Fully Nonlinear Potential Flow Method
Sammanfattning : In recent years, the International Maritime Organization introduced a new set of rules in order to try to reduce emissions of ships by improving their efficiency. To assess the energy efficiency of a new ship, the regulations require to estimate the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), which represent the amount of Carbon Dioxide produced per mile in relation to the amount of cargo carried, and verify that it is smaller than a prescribed value.

22. Condition monitoring of railway vehicles : a study on wheel condition for heavy haul rolling stock
Sammanfattning : A railway is an energy efficient mode of transport as it uses the low resistance contact between wheel and rail. This contact is not frictionless and causes wear on both surfaces. The wheel-rail guidance is made possible by the shapes of wheel and rail profiles. LÄS MER
23. Development of Electrical Readouts for Amplified Single Molecule Detection
Sammanfattning : Molecular diagnostics is a fast growing field with new technologies being developed constantly. There is a demand for more sophisticated molecular tools able to detect a multitude of molecules on a single molecule level with high specificity, able to distinguish them from other similar molecules.

24. Digital Electrical DNA Sensing
Sammanfattning : Molecule detection is a workhorse in life sciences and medicine, for example in cancer diagnosis and virus and bacterial detection. DNA analysis can provide vital information about the state of a host organism and its medical and health condition. LÄS MER
25. Low-friction and wear-resistant carbon nitride coatings for bearing components grown by magnetron sputtering
Sammanfattning : The scope of this thesis is the investigation of magnetron sputtered carbon nitride coatings suitable for roller bearing components. The research field of tribology of bearings focuses on minimizing friction between components by improving the lubricants. LÄS MER
