  1. 1. Self-adaptable catalysts : Importance of flexibility and applications in asymmetric catalysis

    Författare :Ester Fjellander; Christina Moberg; Jay Siegel; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adaptable; flexible; semi-flexible; symmetry; conformational study; mechanistic study; rotation barrier; VT NMR; asymmetric catalysis; ligand design; allylic alkylation; hydrogenation; azepines; dioxaphosphepines; phosphepines; amines; phosphines; phosphoramidites; phosphinites; palladium; rhodium; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The topic of this thesis is the design and synthesis of biaryl-based self adaptableligands for asymmetric metal catalysis. The results discussed in papers I-III are covered, together with some unpublished results concerning substrate-adaptable catalysts. A general survey of self-adaptable catalysts is presented first.

  3. 2. Sparse district heating and flexible district heating pipes

    Författare :Charlotte Reidhav; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; temperature-dependent thermal conductivity; gas diffusion in semi-flexible polyurethane foam; Heating single-family houses; low heat density; new experimental method;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to describe sparse district heating conditions and explore how to improve them. Few sparse areas are heated by district heat, which reflects the economic competitiveness. A method that could be used by the district heating companies to identify the boundaries of profitable district heat is presented. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Flexible Composites - Strength, Deformation and Fracture Proecesses in Woven and D.O.S. Reinforcement Materials

    Författare :Torbjörn Dartman; Industriell Produktion; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kompositmaterial; Composite materials; Textile materials; Joints; Coated fabrics; Tear strength; Flexible composites; Damage resistance;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis the tensile strength, deformation, damage resistance and tear propagation for flexible composites are analysed. There are two essential requirements common to all flexible composites; namely, high tearing strength and good matrix-to-fabric adhesion. The interaction of fabric and matrix is complex. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Functional modelling of the human timing mechanism

    Författare :Guy Madison; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Brain mechanisms; Brownian motion; drift; dynamical systems; fractal; human; Gaussian noise; Hurst exponent; time; time series analysis; timing; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; fysiologi; Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : Behaviour occurs in time, and precise timing in the range of seconds and fractions of seconds is for most living organisms necessary for successful interaction with the environment. Our ability to time discrete actions and to predict events on the basis of prior events indicates the existence of an internal timing mechanism. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Generic Properties of Polymer Solutions

    Författare :Takashi Uematsu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; photon correlation spectroscopy; collective diffusion; atomic force microscopy; relaxation; agarose gel electrophoresis; DNA; Zimm dynamics; pulsed-field gradient NMR; superdiffusion; polymer solution; blob model; gel;

    Sammanfattning : Polymer solutions are abundantly present in our daily life, for example in paints, jellies, contact lenses and even in the living cells. Despite their ubiquity, we still have a poor understanding of the physical properties of solutions due to the extremely large number of internal degrees of freedom. LÄS MER
