  1. 1. Ground Movements in the Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt of SW Iran Measured by GPS and InSAR Compared to Physical Models

    Författare :Faramarz Nilfouroushan; Christopher Talbot; Hemin Koyi; Christophe Vigny; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Zagros fold-thrust belt; deformation; GPS; InSAR; Physical modeling; tectonics; convergent settings; basal friction; Geovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis uses geodetic satellite data to measure present-day crustal deformation in the Zagros fold-thrust belt (SW Iran). Geodetic-type measurements are also used in down-scaled models that simulate the surface deformations seen in convergent settings like the Zagros fold-thrust belt. LÄS MER

  3. 2. On the Mechanisms behind the Tribological Performance of Stellites

    Författare :Daniel H. E. Persson; Sture Hogmark; Staffan Jacobson; Mikael Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Stellite; Co-based; phase transformation; fcc; hcp; texture; alignment; low-friction; laser cladding; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis reveals the tribological mechanisms behind the intrinsic low friction potential of the Co-based family of alloys called Stellites. Although being an established and important group of materials, a satisfactory explanation to why they exhibit low-friction properties under severe sliding conditions has not previously been found in the literature.

  4. 3. MAX phase thin films : unique multifunctional ceramics with the elements Ti, Si, Ge, Sn, and C

    Författare :Jens Emmerlich; Wolfhard Möller; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin solid films; Single-crystal; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Mn+1AXn phases are ternary carbides or nitrides (X) consisting of an early transition metal (M), and (A)- group element (group III-V). They combine ceramic and metallic properties with high oxidation and thermal shock resistance as well as low resistivity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Fullerene-like carbon nitride thin solid films

    Författare :Jörg Neidhardt; Brian C. Holloway; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis is to establish synthesis-structure-property- performance relations for nano structured carbon nitride thin solid films. This material consists of bent and frequently intersecting nitrogen-containing graphite basal planes, where nitrogen plays an important role for the initiation of inter-planar cross-links and the induction of curvature via pentagon formation, much like in Buckminster Fullerenes - hence, the terminology "fullerene-like carbon nitride".

  7. 5. Carbon Nitride : Characterization and Protein Interactions

    Författare :Torun Berlind; Hans Arwin; Pentti Tengvall; Hans Hultman; Thomas E. Tiwald; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns synthesis and characterization of carbon-based materials and theinvestigation of the possible use, of a selection of these materials, in biomedicalapplications. Protein adsorption and blood plasma tests were used for this purposeutilizing a surface sensitive technique called spectroscopic ellipsometry. LÄS MER
