  1. 1. Sphagnum limits : Physiology, morphology and climate

    Författare :Charles Campbell; Håkan Rydin; Gustaf Granath; Sebastian Sundberg; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sphagnum; ecology; bryophyte; winter; species distribution models; low temperature; plant structure; water economy; Biology with specialization in Ecological Botany; Biologi med inriktning mot ekologisk botanik;

    Sammanfattning : Sphagnum is the most important plant genus in terms of terrestrial carbon cycling. It and the habitats it creates store an equivalent of ~68% of the CO2 in the atmosphere. The genus has little dispersal limitation and the mire habitats are functionally similar at global scales. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Low-temperature carburizing/nitriding of austenitic stainless steels - Influence of alloy composition on microstructure and properties

    Författare :Giulio Maistro; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribology; surface engineering; S-phase; SEM; corrosion; XPS; Austenitic stainless steel; expanded austenite; plasma nitriding; EBSD; XRD; thermal stability; low-temperature carburizing; surface analysis; GDOES;

    Sammanfattning : Austenitic stainless steels are among the most used materials in applications where corrosion resistance is important, as the food, pharmaceutical, chemical, oil and gas industries. However, low hardness and poor tribological properties is often an obstacle for their applicability. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Morphology Characterization of Foam Bitumen and Modeling for Low Temperature Asphalt Concrete

    Författare :Biruk Hailesilassie; Manfred Partl; Kim Jenkins; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; foam characteristics; evolution of foam bitumen bubbles; image analysis; modeling rising of bubble; foam asphalt mixture; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Sammanfattning : Development of new asphalt technologies to reduce both energy consumption and CO2 production has attracted great interest in recent years. The use of foam bitumen, as one of them, is attractive due to the low investment and production cost. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Direct Numerical Simulations of Low Temperature Combustion in IC Engine Related Conditions

    Författare :Fan Zhang; Strömningsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with direct numerical simulation (DNS) of low temperature combustion in internal combustion engine related conditions. In particular, HCCI (homogeneous charge compression ignition), SACI (spark assisted ho-mogeneous charge compression ignition) and PPC (partially premixed charge combustion) were investigated to gain deeper understanding on the details of the combustion process.

  7. 5. Proterozoic to Quaternary Events of Fracture Mineralisation and Oxidation in SE Sweden

    Författare :Henrik Drake; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fracture minerals; low-temperature evolution; paleohydrogeology; redox front; wall rock alteration; stable isotopes; geochemistry; Ar-Ar dating; fluid inclusions; Mössbauer spectroscopy; U-series disequilibrium; Simpevarp; Laxemar; SE Sweden; nuclear waste repository.;

    Sammanfattning : Fracture minerals and altered wall rock have been analysed to reveal the low-temperature evolution, especially regarding redox conditions, of the Simpevarp area, SE Sweden. This area is one of the two areas in Sweden investigated by the Swedish Nuclear fuel and Waste Management Co. LÄS MER
