21. Plastic design of steel bridge girders
Sammanfattning : This thesis assesses the feasibility of a modified plastic design method for continuous steel or composite bridges with slender I-girders. The feasibility evaluation of the design method is closely connected to the moment-rotation relationship of the I-girders at internal supports. LÄS MER
22. Contributions to the theory of optimal stopping
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the explicit solution of optimal stopping problems with infinite time horizon. To solve Markovian problems in continuous time we introduce an approach that gives rise to explicit results in various situations. LÄS MER
23. High-Temperature Microfluidics for Space Propulsion
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, microfabrication methods and tools for analysis of heated cold-gas microthrusters are presented, with the aim of improving their reliability and performance. Cold-gas thrusters operate by accelerating pressurized gas through a nozzle. LÄS MER
24. Liquid-Jet-Target Microfocus X-Ray Sources : Electron Guns, Optics and Phase-Contrast Imaging
Sammanfattning : This Thesis describes the development of an electron-impact microfocus x-ray source and its application for phase-contrast imaging. The source is based on a novel, liquid-jet target concept. Stable and continuous operation can be achieved at substantially higher electron-beam power densities than conventional solid target based systems. LÄS MER
25. Extreme Load Conditions for Wind Powered Direct Drive PM Generators
Sammanfattning : Wind energy is a rapidly growing energy source with vast potential. Vertical axis wind turbines could be more cost-effective than the three bladed horizontal axis turbines that dominate today. LÄS MER
