  1. 1. The effect of disorder on the axial anomaly in a lattice model in 1 + 1 dimensions

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Agnes Wattrang; [2023]
    Keywords : Axial anomaly; tight-binding model; semiclassical physics; correlated disorder.; Axial kiral anomali; tätbindningsmodell; semiklassisk fysik; korrelerad oordning;

    Abstract : This work investigates the effect of a disorder potential, that represents impurities/dislocations in the lattice, on the time-dependent signature of the axial anomaly in a one-band tight-binding model in one spatial dimension. The tight-binding model is solved numerically and the simulation results are compared with a semiclassical expression for the time-dependent axial density, n5(t), due to Nielsen and Ninomiya [1].

  3. 2. Irradiation Embrittlement on a Core Shroud from Decommissioned BWR

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Åsa Bjåland; [2023]
    Keywords : hardness; Vickers hardness test; ATT; yield strength; irradiation embrittlement; welds; hårdhet; Vickers hårdhetstest; ATT; sträckgräns; bestrålningsförsprödning; svetsar;

    Abstract : Irradiation embrittlement is a problematic issue for internal structures, such as acore shroud, in a light water reactor. It is characterized by decreased ductility andtoughness, and increased yield strength and hardening due to increased dislocations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of thick GaN and AlGaN drift layers for vertical power devices

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Andri Dhora; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : High-quality, thick III-nitride epitaxial drift layers with controlled doping are needed for next-generation highly efficient vertical power devices for a smart grid applications and electrification of mobility. Achieving desirable material properties, such as low background impurity concentrations and reduced dislocation densities in combination with high growth rates, necessary for practical application present a challenge.

  5. 4. Feasibility Study of Resistivity Measurement of Metal Surfaces to Address Potential Dislocations Caused by Surface Conditioning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Mircea-George Coman; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : High electrical fields are needed inside the accelerating cavities of particle accelerators in order to accelerate the particles to higher energies in shorter distances. But high electrical fields will lead to electrical breakdowns. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling of nanometric cutting in metals using MD simulations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Mekanik

    Author : Damien Gautier; [2022]
    Keywords : Nanometric cutting; Molecular Dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project has been done within the Mechanics department of Lunds Tekniska Högskola (LTH). It studies the nanometric cutting process of a single crystal copper workpiece by a cubic diamond tool using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations on the software LAMMPS. READ MORE
