1. 1. Processing of raw Cassava (Manihot esculenta) - Experiments and Modelling

   Författare :Carola Rojas; Livsmedelsteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; amylopectin; hydrodynamic radius; field flow fractionation; overlap concentration; minerals; enzymes; cassava; hydrolyses; glucose; maltose; sucros; amylase; hydrolyses kinetics; starch granule structure; radius of gyration; drying kinetics; heat transfer; high pressure homogenisation; mass transfer;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of the present thesis was to understand how the quality and performance of dried cassava products could be developed by drying and other processing steps. This goal was achieved in several stages. LÄS MER

3. 2. Simulation of individual cells in flow

   Författare :Lailai Zhu; Luca Brandt; Michael Graham; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrodynamic interaction; swimming microorganisms; capsule; Stokes flow; finite element method; boundary integral method; general geometry Ewald method; spectral element method; viscoelastic fluid; cellular deformation; flow cytometry; cell sorting; microrheology; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, simulations are performed to study the motion ofindividual cells in flow, focusing on the hydrodynamics of actively swimming cells likethe self-propelling microorganisms, and of passively advected objects like the red bloodcells. In particular, we develop numerical tools to address the locomotion ofmicroswimmers in viscoelastic fluids and complex geometries, as well as the motion ofdeformable capsules in micro-fluidic flows.

4. 3. Transitional and turbulent fibre suspension flows

   Författare :Mathias Kvick; Fredrik Lundell; Daniel Söderberg; Lisa Prahl Wittberg; Björn Hof; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid mechanics; fibre suspension; turbulence; laminar-turbulent transition; image analysis; hydrodynamic stability; cellulose nanofibrils.; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis the orientation of macro-sized fibres in turbulent flows is studied, as well as the effect of nano-sized fibrils on hydrodynamic stability. The focus lies on enabling processes for new materials where cellulose is the main constituent. LÄS MER

5. 4. The Influence of Steel Sheet Surface-Topography on Friction in Stamping

   Författare :Anders Wihlborg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Micro Plasto HydroDynamic Lubrication MPHDL ; EBT; ECD; EDT; WC index; SBT; surface topography; Micro Plasto HydroStatic Lubrication MPHSL ; tribology; steel sheets; Surface Indentation Test; bending under tension;

   Sammanfattning : Steel sheet is the prevalent material for car body panels. In the manufacturing of steel sheets a certain surface roughness is achieved from the ground or textured rolls used in the three final reduction steps. When manufacturing car body panels the sheets first are formed and then painted. LÄS MER

7. 5. Size Characterisation of Water-Soluble Polymers Using Asymmetrical Flow Field-Flow Fractionation

   Författare :Bengt Wittgren; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multi-angle light scattering; molar mass distribution; aggregation; size characterisation; Asymmetrical flow FFF; water-soluble polymers; polysaccharides; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi;

   Sammanfattning : Size, as expressed by molar mass, radius of gyration or hydrodynamic radius, for example, is a fundamental parameter of polymers in solution. Thus, there is a strong need for the characterisation of both the size and shape of polymers, particularly of those utilised in various industrial applications. LÄS MER
