    Sammanfattning : Early detection is vital to successfully treating breast cancer, and mammography screening is the most efficient and wide-spread method to reach this goal. Imaging low-contrast targets, while minimizing the radiation exposure to a large population is, however, a major challenge. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Modelling and Experimental Verification of Direct Drive Wave Energy Conversion : Buoy-Generator Dynamics

    Författare :Mikael Eriksson; Mats Leijon; Jan Isberg; Arne Wolfbrandt; Kim Nielsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Engineering physics; Wave energy; Potential wave theory; Linear generator; Simulations; Experiments; Point absorber; FEM; Equivalent circuit theory; Teknisk fysik; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on development of models and modelling of a wave energy converter in operation. Through the thesis linear potential wave theory has been used to describe the wave-buoy interaction. The differences lie in the generator models, in the simplest model the generator is a mechanical damper characterized by a damping factor. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Electrical Systems for Wave Energy Conversion

    Författare :Cecilia Boström; Mats Leijon; Daniel Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Wave power; direct driven linear generators; electrical systems; non-linear loads; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Wave energy is a renewable energy source with a large potential to contribute to the world's electricity production. There exist several technologies on how to convert the energy in the ocean waves into electric energy. The wave energy converter (WEC) presented in this thesis is based on a linear synchronous generator. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Toughness of Tool Steel

    Författare :Henrik Jesperson; Håkan Engqvist; Birger Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Toughness; Tool Steel; Heat Treatment; Temperature; Energy absorption; Impact Testing; Fracture Toughness Testing; Non-metallic Inclusions; Carbides; Nitrides; Statistics; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : Toughness is the ability to resist tensile stresses in the presence of a notch or crack. Sometimes gross cracking of industrial tools, mould or dies, occurs due to insufficient toughness. As the economic consequences of the gross cracking are serious, the toughness of industrial tool material, generally tool steel, is of paramount importance. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Interaction between High-velocity Penetrators and Moving Armour Components

    Författare :Ewa Lidén; Bengt Lundberg; Hevré Couque; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot hållfasthetslära; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : This work was aimed at understanding mechanisms of importance for the design of weight-efficient armour against long-rod projectiles (LRP) and shaped charge (SC) warheads. The focus was on how to achieve effective mechanical disturbances on the threat before it hits the target. LÄS MER
