1. 1. The measurement of chemical persistence in the field by benchmarking : Theory and Experiment

   Författare :Hongyan Zou; Michael McLachlan; Keri Hornbuckle; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chemical benchmarking; persistence; half-lives; modeling; threshold benchmarking; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : Persistence is one of the core criteria in chemical exposure and hazard assessment. It is often defined as the half-life for the removal of a chemical from a specified environment by transformation. Chemicals with long transformation half-lives may pose high risks for wildlife or humans and be subject to long-range transport to remote areas. LÄS MER

3. 2. Automatic segmentation in CMR - Development and validation of algorithms for left ventricular function, myocardium at risk and myocardial infarction

   Författare :Jane Tufvesson; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatic segmentation; cardiovascular magnetic resonance; validation; Expectation Maximization; freely available software; myocardial infarction;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis four new algorithms are presented for automatic segmentation in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR); automatic segmentation of the left ventricle, myocardial infarction, and myocardium at risk in two different image types. All four algorithms were implemented in freely available software for image analysis and were validated against reference delineations with a low bias and high regional agreement. LÄS MER

4. 3. Microstructure and deformation behaviour of ductile iron under tensile loading

   Författare :Keivan Amiri Kasvayee; Anders E.W. Jarfors; Ehsan Ghassemali; Lennart Elmquist; Kenneth Hamberg; Jönköping University; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ductile iron; digital image correlation DIC ; in-situ tensile test; pit etching; Microscale deformation; micro-crack; finite elements analysis FEA ; cohesive elements;

   Sammanfattning : The current thesis focuses on the deformation behaviour and strain distribution in the microstructure of ductile iron during tensile loading. Utilizing Digital Image Correlation (DIC) and in-situ tensile test under optical microscope, a method was developed to measure high resolution strain in microstructural constitutes. LÄS MER

5. 4. Machine learning for building energy system analysis

   Författare :Fan Zhang; Johan Håkansson; Chris Bales; Stefan Byttner; Högskolan Dalarna; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; district heating; machine learning; deep learning; HVAC; neural networks;

   Sammanfattning : Buildings account for approximately 40% of the global energy, and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) contributes to a large proportion of building energy consumption. Two main negative characteristics that contribute to performance degradation and energy waste in an HVAC system are inappropriate control strategies and faults. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the effect of microstructural variation on the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of ductile iron. To research and determine these effects, two grades of ductile iron, (i) GJS-500-7 and (ii) high silicon GJS-500-14, were cast in a geometry containing several plates with different section thicknesses in order to produce microstructural variation.
