  1. 1. Syn-Magmatic Deformation Structures in the Slaufrudalur Pluton, East Iceland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Chun Hei Ho; [2023]
    Keywords : Granite; Iceland; magma chamber; magmatic microstructure; melt fraction; mush; pluton; rheology; strain; syn-magmatic deformation;

    Abstract : Structures and deformation mechanisms of magmatic rocks are controlled by rheology. An increase in melt fraction can weaken a rock body and localises significant amount of strain. This interplay between rheology, melting and deformation in a magma reservoir, however, is not always clearly documented in literature. READ MORE

    Abstract : Photogrammetry has become a great tool when analyzing geological outcrops. The Slaufrudalur plutonis located in southeast Iceland and is composed of multiple granitic intrusions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Nuclear reactor core model for the advancednuclear fuel cycle simulator FANCSEE. Advanceduse of Monte Carlo methods in nuclear reactorcalculations

    University essay from

    Author : Alexander Skwarcan-Bidakowski; [2017]
    Keywords : Nuclear; Reactor; Physics; simulation; FANCSEE; Serpent; energy; neutron; cross; section; Bateman; atom; isotope; fission; reaction; uranium; plutonium; capture; physics; power; calculation; burnup; Kärnkraft; Reaktor; Kärna; Simulering; FANCSEE; uran; pluton; Serpent; energi; atom; isotop; fisson; Bateman;

    Abstract : A detailed reactor core modeling of the LOVIISA-2 PWR and FORSMARK-3BWR was performed in the Serpent 2 Continuous Energy Monte-Carlocode.Both models of the reactors were completed but the approximations ofthe atomic densities of nuclides present in the core differedsignificantly.

  5. 4. The Roots of a Magma Chamber, the Central Intrusion, Rum, NW-Scotland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Tobias Mattsson; [2014]
    Keywords : Rum; Layered Ultrabasic Intrusion; Long Loch Fault; 3D modelling; Rum; Minerallagrad magmakammare; Long Loch Förskastningen; 3D modellering;

    Abstract : The island of Rum in the Inner Hebrides, NW-Scotland, hosts a central volcanic complex that is part of the British-Irish Palaeogene Igneous Province situated in NE- Ireland and NW- Scotland. On Rum, rocks from several stages of Palaeogene magmatic activity have been exposed by millions of years of erosion. READ MORE

  6. 5. An investigation of the Felsic Ramiane Pluton in the Monapo Structure, northern Moçambique

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Jonnina P. Karlsson; [2006]
    Keywords : Moçambique Orogenic Belt; Nampula Subprovince; Monapo Structure; Ramiane Pluton; Moçambique bältet; Nampula provinsen; Monapostrukturen; Ramianeplutonen; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Monapostrukturen ligger i Nampula provinsen i norra Moçambique, och utgör en del av Mocambique bältet. Strukturen är ca 35-40 km i diameter och har en mycket låg topografi. Trots detta syns den väl på satellitbilder och flygfotografier. READ MORE
