26. Stiffness modification of tensegrity structures
Sammanfattning : Although the concept of tensegrity structures was invented in the beginning of the twentieth century, the applications of these structures are limited, partially due to their low stiffness. The stiffness of tensegrities comes from topology, configuration, pre-stress and initial axial element stiffnesses. LÄS MER
27. Introducing Surface Gravity Waves into Earth System Models
Sammanfattning : Surface gravity waves alter the turbulence of the bottom atmosphere and the upper ocean. Accordingly, they can affect momentum flux, heat fluxes, gas exchange and atmospheric mixing. However, in most state-of-the-art Earth System Models (ESMs), surface wave influences are not fully considered or even included. LÄS MER
28. Protection against cold in prehospital trauma care
Sammanfattning : Background: Protection against cold is vitally important in prehospital trauma care to reduce heat loss and prevent body core cooling. Objectives: Evaluate the effect on cold stress and thermoregulation in volunteer subjects byutilising additional insulation on a spineboard (I). LÄS MER
29. A numerical investigation of energy conversions in geophysical boundary layers
Sammanfattning : The detailed energy conversions in turbulent geophysical boundary layers are examined and quantified. The governing transport equations are solved by utilizing turbulence modelling. Different turbulence closures have been adopted for the boundary layers examined. LÄS MER
30. The Location and Variability of Southern ocean Fronts
Sammanfattning : The location of fronts has a direct influence on both the physical and biological processes in the Southern Ocean. Moreover, the Subtropical Front (STF) is believed play a key role in the global climate system. LÄS MER
