1. Influence of Geometry on Drift Waves in Tokamaks and Stellarators
Sammanfattning : There is a general consensus that drift waves are responsible for a large amount of transport in fusion experiments and it is of importance to investigate their linear stability and nonlinear evolution. These instabilities have therefore been intensively investigated in tokamaks for the last few decades. LÄS MER
2. Towards Subject Specific Aortic Wall Shear Stress : a combined CFD and MRI approach
Sammanfattning : The cardiovascular system is an important part of the human body since it transports both energy and oxygen to all cells throughout the body. Diseases in this system are often dangerous and cardiovascular diseases are the number one killer in the western world. LÄS MER
3. On the determination and application of local filtration properties
Sammanfattning : Filtration is a mechanical unit-operation used for the separation of liquid and solid. In this work, the three sub-operations cake build-up, expression and washing have been studied. One difficulty often encountered in the design of filtration equipment is that the materials being filtered form more or less compressible filter cakes. LÄS MER
4. Microinstabilities in Advanced Tokamak and Stellarator Geometries
Sammanfattning : The anomalous particle and heat transport observed in magnetically confined plasmas is generally attributed to plasma turbulence driven by short-scale instabilities, called microinstabilities. Understanding the stability limits of microinstabilities and their dependency on the equilibrium configuration is of paramount importance in the effort to predict the performance of future fusion devices such as the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER).

5. Thin Film Synthesis and Characterization of New MAX Phase Alloys
Sammanfattning : The objective of this Thesis is synthesis and characterization of new MAX phase alloys (M = early transition metal, A = A-group element, and X = C or N) based on incorporation of M and X elements previously not used in any known MAX phases. This is motivated by a search for optimized and unique materials properties, such as different magnetic states. LÄS MER
