1. Impact of Metallic Projectiles on a Ceramic Target Surface : Transition Between Interface Defeat and Penetration
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to gain understanding of the load on flat target surfaces produced by projectile impact. Models are proposed from which upper and lower bounds can be derived for the transition be-tween interface defeat and normal penetration. LÄS MER
2. Turbulent Boundary Layer Separation and Control
Sammanfattning : Boundary layer separation is an unwanted phenomenon in most technical applications, as for instance on airplane wings, ground vehicles and in internal flow systems. If separation occurs, it causes loss of lift, higher drag and energy losses. It is thus essential to develop methods to eliminate or delay separation. LÄS MER
3. Turbulent Shear Flow Experiments: Design of Natural Convection Rig and LDA Measurement in Swirling Jets
Sammanfattning : This work consist of two sections. In the first part, a facility has been installed and modified from an existing rig in order to measure velocity and temperature field of axisymmetric turbulent natural convection boundary layers. With using laser doppler anemometry and cold wire resistance thermometry. LÄS MER
4. An Experimental Study of Fluid Dynamics and Mixing in Bubbly Gas-Liquid Flow Systems
Sammanfattning : In the present project, a new experimental method enabling Planar Laser-Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) measurements in bubbly gas-liquid flows is presented. Due to reflection and refraction of the laser light, the bubbles will cause an uneven and unknown distribution of light intensity in the measurement plane. LÄS MER
5. Some non-linear geometric and kinetic evolutions and their approximations
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with three non-linear evolution problems: mean curvature flow, Willmore flow, and the evolution of solutions to the space homogeneous Boltzmann equation. Generalized mean curvature flows are also considered. A major part of the study focuses on the construction of approximations to these evolutions. LÄS MER
