6. Application of a system thermal-hydraulics code to development of validation process for coupled STH-CFD codes
Sammanfattning : Generation IV reactors are designed to provide sustainable energy generation, minimize waste production and excel in safety. Due to lack of operational experience, ever evolving design and stringent safety requirements, these novel reactors have to rely heavily on simulations. LÄS MER
7. Food packaging design to support sorting behavior
Sammanfattning : Due to population growth, urbanization, higher income levels, and intensive use of packaging products, the amount of waste generated by households, including food packaging waste, has been increasing continuously worldwide, posing a massive threat to societies and the environment. Therefore, proper waste management has become a challenging environmental issue and priority for governments. LÄS MER
8. Patient-Specific Finite Element Modeling of the Blood Flow in the Left Ventricle of a Human Heart
Sammanfattning : Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Therefore, numerous studies are undertaken to identify indicators which can be applied to discover cardiac dysfunctions at an early age. LÄS MER
9. Doping and Density of States Engineering for Organic Thermoelectrics
Sammanfattning : Thermoelectric materials can turn temperature differences directly into electricity. To use this to harvest e.g. waste heat with an efficiency that approaches the Carnot efficiency requires a figure of merit ZT larger than 1. LÄS MER
10. Essays on Time Series Analysis : With Applications to Financial Econometrics
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis is comprised of four papers that all relate to the subject of Time Series Analysis.The first paper of the thesis considers point estimation in a nonnegative, hence non-Gaussian, AR(1) model. The parameter estimation is carried out using a type of extreme value estimators (EVEs). LÄS MER
