  1. 6. Multiscale Methods for Wave Propagation Problems

    Författare :Henrik Holst; Björn Engquist; Olof Runborg; Assyr Abdulle; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Simulations of wave propagation in heterogeneous media and at high frequencies are important in many applications such as seismic-, {electro-magnetic-,} acoustic-, fluid flow problems and others. These are classical multiscale problems and often too computationally expensive for direct numerical simulation. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Laser Sheet Imaging and Image Analysis for Combustion Research

    Författare :Rafeef Abu-Gharbieh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-linear diffusion filtering; optically dense sprays; curve evolution propagation; image sequence analysis; laser induced fluorescence; geodesic paths; level sets; LIF; optical density; spray characterization; flame propagation; laser; particle image velocimetry; spectroscopy; combustion engines; spray diagnostics; Mie scattering; flame fronts; laser attenuation; tracking; combustion diagnostics; curve matching; combustion; laser sheet imaging; PIV; time resolved imaging; segmentation;

    Sammanfattning : This Thesis presents techniques that aim at exploiting the potential of image analysis and processing in order to solve problems of data reduction, interpolation, quantification, and interpretation within the field of experimental laser imaging of combustion processes. Combustion is the most important source of energy for power generation, heating, and transportation in the world today and its strong dominance is projected to continue in the foreseeable future.

  3. 8. How do metamorphic fluids move through rocks? : An investigation of timescales, infiltration mechanisms and mineralogical controls

    Författare :Barbara I. Kleine; Alasdair D. L. Skelton; John C. Schumacher; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metamorphic fluid flow; fluid-rock interaction; fluid infiltration mechanisms; fluid flux rates; thermodynamic modeling; reaction front propagation; fluid flux calculation; Geology; geologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to provide a better understanding of the role of mountain building in the carbon cycle. The amount of CO2 released into the atmosphere due to metamorphic processes is largely unknown. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Transient growth of disturbances in laminar pipe flow

    Författare :Lars Bergström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Sammanfattning : Transient growth of disturbances is studied theoretically in pipe Poiseuille flow and experimentally both in pipe and plane Poiseuille flow. The theoretical results, based on the initial value problem, show that a large transient amplification occurs for small, angular dependent disturbances in pipe Poiseuille flow although all modes are damped.

  5. 10. Sound Generation and Propagation in the Human Upper Airways

    Författare :Lukas Schickhofer; Mihai Mihaescu; Anders Dahlkild; Mats Karlsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : The human upper airways embrace the source of phonation and affect the modulation of the voice, which is of vital importance for communication. Moreover, unwanted sounds may be generated in the upper airways due to elastic, collapsible parts that are susceptible to flow-induced vibration and resonance. LÄS MER
