  1. 1. Optimal Control of Partial Differential Equations in Optimal Design

    Författare :Jesper Carlsson; Anders Szepessy; Peter Hansbo; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimal design; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the approximation of optimally controlled partial differential equations for inverse problems in optimal design. Important examples of such problems are optimal material design and parameter reconstruction. In optimal material design the goal is to construct a material that meets some optimality criterion, e.g. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Recyclable High Performance Thermosets from Biobased Rigid Building Blocks

    Författare :Yunsheng Xu; Minna Hakkarainen; Karin Odelius; Youssef Habibi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : The finite petroleum resources and increasing polymer waste have given rise to concerns associated with the origin and end of life management of polymer materials. Developing biobased and recyclable thermosets is an important and still underexplored part of this process, especially as thermosets also possess inherent recycling issues caused by their crosslinked structure.

  3. 3. New regulators of xylem lignification in arabidopsis

    Författare :Bernadette Sztojka; Hannele Tuominen; Simon Hawkins; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Xylem; lignin; Arabidopsis; secondary cell wall; transcriptional regulation; lignin-biosynthetic gene; S G lignin ratio;

    Sammanfattning : The ability of land plants to grow upright, bear their own weight and withstand adverse environmental conditions is largely dependent on the secondary xylem tissues of the stem. The xylem cells acquire thick secondary cell walls which are composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. LÄS MER

  4. 4. On the relation between paperboard properties and packaging performance

    Författare :Gustav Marin; Sören Östlund; Mikael Nygårds; Christer Korin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solid Mechanics; Hållfasthetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Paper-based materials, such as paperboard, are commonly used as packaging materials. Inaddition to the advantage that wood as a raw material is renewable, there are also many otherbenefits of paperboard. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Surface nanomechanical properties of hydrogels and coatings

    Författare :Gen Li; Per M. Claesson; Jan van Stam; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanomechanical properties; nanotribology; nanowear; poly-HEMA; poly-NIPAm; Cellulose nanocrystals; AFM; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Characterizing mechanical and wear properties at the nanometer scale emerged as a fascinating and challenging topic in the last decades due to recognition of many interesting and unusual properties of nanomaterials. Due to recent developments of the atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique, it is now possible to measure nanomechanical properties and topography simultaneously, as well as performing and evaluating wear measurements at the nanometer scale.
