1. 1. Permafrost Groundwater Dynamics : Modeling of vertical and lateral flows in the active layer across multiple scales

   Författare :Alexandra Hamm; Andrew Frampton; Peter Kuhry; Jeffrey McKenzie; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; permafrost; climate change; numerical modeling; hydrogeology; groundwater; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

   Sammanfattning : Hydrological processes in the Arctic are profoundly influenced by the presence of permanently frozen ground, known as permafrost. Conversely, permafrost is greatly affected by hydrological changes resulting from climate change. LÄS MER

3. 2. Structure and dynamics of complex materials in the water-poor regime

   Författare :Sanna Gustavsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydration; cellulose; dissolution; sugar surfactant; hydrated crystals; structure; dynamics; phase diagram; fuel cell; pulsed-field-gradient PFG spin-echo NMR; Polarization Transfer solid state NMR; PXRD; GVS; TGA; amphiphilic;

   Sammanfattning : In the solid state, molecules are normally ordered in a specific structure. With time, and as a result of influence from the surroundings, solid materials can change their molecular and/or crystal structure and, as a consequence, obtain completely different properties. Water is particularly important in this respect. LÄS MER

4. 3. Structure and Dynamics of Hydrated Biopolymers

   Författare :Poornima Ramamohan; Jakob Wohlert; Istvan Furo; Fritjof Nilsson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Hydrated Polysaccharides; Molecular Dynamics Simulations; Structure-Function Properties; Convergence of Equilibrium Timescales; Chemical Heterogeneity; Hydrerade polysackarider; molekylära dynamiksimuleringar; struktur- funktionsegenskaper; konvergens av jämviktstidskalor; kemisk heterogenitet; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Sammanfattning : Hydrated polysaccharide systems primarily using xylans along with mutans and alternans were studied using long atomistic simulations over a few microseconds to analyse structure-function relationships and nanoscale interactions with moisture. The influence of various structural and chemical factors such as alignment, nature of glycosidic linkage, effect of moisture / chemical substitutions was explored with a focus on structure-dynamics correlations to aid in the effective functionalisation of biomaterials for the development of a green, circular bioeconomy.

5. 4. Two-dimensional Nanocomposites Based on Cellulose Nanofibrils and Graphene Oxide

   Författare :Hanieh Mianehrow; Lars Berglund; Aji Mathew; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Cellulose nanofibrils; graphene oxide; orientation; reinforcement; oxygen barrier; bio-nanocomposite; moisture; molecular adhesion; interfacial shear strength.; Nanocellulosa; grafenoxid; orientering; förstärkning; syrebarriär; bionanokomposit; fukt; molekylär adhesion; skjuvhållfasthet hos gränsytan.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Sammanfattning : Two-dimensional (2D) nanocomposites based on cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and 2D nanomaterials are of interest as sustainable materials combining functional and structural properties. To achieve reinforcement effects from 2D nanomaterials, their orientation and dispersion state in the CNF matrix are important. LÄS MER

7. 5. Studies on the barrier properties of exterior wood coatings

   Författare :Jan Ekstedt; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Coatings; surfactants; water absorption value; EN 927; paint; additives; moisture dynamics; absorption; desorption; artificial weathering; artificial exposure; computerized tomography; MRI.;

   Sammanfattning : Coatings for exterior wood have two basic functions. One isto give an aesthetically acceptable surface appearance andcolour. The other is to provide protection against wooddegradation by microbiological or physical attack. LÄS MER
