  1. 1. Effect of a plant-derived nutraceutical on the tolerance of axenically-cultured Artemia towards abiotic or biotic stressor

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Ahumuza Allan Castro; [2023]
    Keywords : Artemia; Hsp70; Vibrio campbellii; plant extract; aquaculture; abiotic stressor;

    Abstract : Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food-production industries worldwide accounting for almost half of fish used for human consumption. Super-intensive, intensive, and semi-intensive farming practices used to produce large farm fish are increasing the frequency of disease outbreaks which is a major problem affecting sustainable aquaculture growth.

  2. 2. Characterization of a refractory cement and sensor development for temperature measurements in molten steel

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Pierre Sandin; [2018]
    Keywords : Refractory castable; high temperature; RTD; resistive temperature detector; steel melt; cement;

    Abstract : In steel manufacturing, temperature control is a critical parameter,as it is extremely important for the steel quality. In general,disposable sensors are regularly immersed in the melt for temperaturemeasurements. There are commercially available sensors for continuoustemperature measurements. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermal properties of concrete with different Swedish aggregate materials

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Julia Chan; [2014]
    Keywords : aggregates; thermal properties; Concrete; heat capacity; thermal conductivity; thermal expansion coefficient; thermal shock resistance.; high thermal mass buildings; thermal diffusivity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Earlier studies show that different concrete aggregates have different thermal properties, and from this an idea to optimize thermal properties of concrete was developed. The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate thermal properties of concrete so additional costs and negative environmental impacts can be minimized. READ MORE
