  1. 1. Distribution of Ventilation Air and Heat by Buoyancy Forces inside Buildings : An Experimental Study

    Författare :Claes Blomqvist; Mats Sandberg; Per Heiselberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; building ventilation; thermal forces; buoyancy; gravity currents; large openings; heating; air quality; forced convection; free convection; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The main task of the ventilation system in a building is to maintain the air quality and (together with the heating or cooling system) the thermal climate at an acceptable level within the building. This means that a sufficient amount of ventilation air at the appropriate temperature and quality must be supplied to satisfy thermal comfort and air quality demands and that this air is distributed to the parts of the building where people reside.

  3. 2. On string integrability : A journey through the two-dimensional hidden symmetries in the AdS/CFT dualities

    Författare :Valentina Giangreco Marotta Puletti; Konstantin Zarembo; Gleb Arutyunov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String Theory; AdS-CFT correspondence; Integrable Field theory; Sigma models; S-matrix; Factorized Scattering; Physics; Fysik; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : One of the main topics in the modern String Theory are the conjectured string/gauge (AdS/CFT) dualities. Proving such conjectures is extremely difficult since the gauge and string theory perturbative regimes do not overlap. In this perspective, the discovery of infinitely many conserved charges, i.e. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Hydrodynamic Modelling for a Point Absorbing Wave Energy Converter

    Författare :Jens Engström; Jan Isberg; Mats Leijon; Antonio Sarmento; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ocean wave energy; Point absorber; Wave energy converter; Wave energy transport; Polychromatic wave; Linear generator; Resonance; Finite depth; Modelling; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik;

    Sammanfattning : Surface gravity waves in the world’s oceans contain a renewable source of free power on the order of terawatts that has to this date not been commercially utilized. The division of Electricity at Uppsala University is developing a technology to harvest this energy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cellular correlates of sensory processing in the mammalian audio-vestibular brainstem

    Författare :Sara Leijon; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Efferent projections to the vestibular inner ear organs have remained elusive. To shed light on their physiological role, a first investigation of the vestibular efferent (VE) neurons in the brainstem was undertaken by using a transgenic mouse which expresses a fluorescent marker in the VE neurons.

  7. 5. Waves and instabilities through the lens of asymptotic analysis

    Författare :Anthony Bonfils; John Wettlaufer; Dhrubaditya Mitra; Woosok Moon; Jerome Neufeld; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; waves; wrinkles; instabilities; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding the interaction of water waves with winds and marine currents is a fundamental problem in geophysical fluid dynamics. From the point of view of hydrodynamic stability, surface waves are regarded as perturbations of an inviscid parallel shear flow modeling the wind in the air and the current in the water. LÄS MER
