  1. 1. Vessel wall integrity : influence of genetics and flow

    Författare :Hanna Björck; Toste Länne; Per Eriksson; Sverker Jern; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death worldwide. Underlying causes, such as atherosclerosis and hypertension, are associated with remodeling of the vessel wall ultimately leading to loss of structural integrity. There are a number of factors that can influence vascular remodeling and hence structural integrity. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Thermo-mechanical Assessment of Reactor Pressure Vessels of Light Water Reactors During Severe Accidents

    Författare :Hongdi Wang; Walter Villanueva; Sevostian Bechta; Weimin Ma; Artem Kulachenko; Michael Fitzpatrick; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Severe accident scenario; reactor pressure vessel; in-vessel melt retention; failure analysis; finite element analysis; validations; Scenario för svåra haverier; reaktortank; in-vessel retention; feleffektsanalys; Finite Element Analyser; validering; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The reactor pressure vessel (RPV) is one of the crucial safety barriers designed to isolate the reactor core, safeguarding against potential radioactive releases into the environment during a severe accident. The assessment of RPV behaviour and its failure is necessary to predict the characteristics of melt release into the reactor pit and succeeding ex-vessel accident progression. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Radiation Induced Precipitation in Reactor Pressure Vessel Steel Welds

    Författare :Kristina Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; precipitation; irradiation damage; low alloy steel; reactor pressure vessel; atom probe tomography;

    Sammanfattning : Radiation induced clustering and precipitation affect the mechanical properties of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) of a nuclear power plant, i.e. the material becomes embritteled. The combination of low Cu (0. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Engineering the shape of bacterial cellulose and its use as blood vessel replacement

    Författare :Henrik Bäckdahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tissue engineering.; smooth muscle cells; bacterial cellulose; scaffold design; tubular fermentation; biocompatibility evaluation; Blood vessel; vascular graft;

    Sammanfattning : Tissue loss and organ failure are major health problems that impose great costs on society. Cardiovascular diseases are responsible for 36% of mortalities and the disease burden among adults over the age of 60. The single largest cardiovascular disease is atherosclerosis in the coronary artery. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Swash Processes and Dune Erosion: Emphasis on Vessel-Generated Waves

    Författare :Li Erikson; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi; Civil engineering; hydraulic engineering; geomorfologi; Fysisk geografi; climatology; cartography; pedology; geomorphology; Naturvetenskap; Physical geography; Natural science; swash; erosion; vessel-generated waves; dunes; offshore technology; soil mechanics; Väg- och vattenbyggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In navigable waterways, owing to the relatively short fetches for wind wave generation, the free waves generated by moving vessels often produce the dominant wave action with respect to erosion of the shore. In response to the fairly recent introduction of high-speed ferries, combined with a planned expansion within the passenger- and car-carrying ship market, the need to model and predict coastline changes as a result of exposure to vessel-generated waves has become a topic of increased research.
