  1. 1. Approximating Damping Coefficient of Bolted Joints using the Finite Element Method

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Abhiroop Chatterjee; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Bolted joints are important due to their energy dissipation property in structures,but the damping mechanism is also highly nonlinear and localized. The goal ofthis thesis is to develop an accurate method for modeling bolted joint dampingin large structures using finite element (FE) software. READ MORE

  3. 2. Wind Power Expansion: “Land-grabber” or Local Catalyst? : A mixed-method thesis on the Swedish renewable energy transition and the “social gap” between the global and the local

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

    Author : Viktor Johansson; [2021]
    Keywords : Wind power; green transition; social acceptance; citizen participation; attitudes; NIMBY;

    Abstract : This thesis examines Sweden’s transition towards a 100% renewable energy system in 2040, by analyzing the expansion of wind power in particular. The study applies a theoretical framework consisting of the concepts of Social Acceptance and Ladder of Participation to analyze how these can be applied on the national and local levels. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of a vertical slot fish ladder : Evaluation of flow dynamics through a standardized bypass and the effect of predesigned roughness elements

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskap

    Author : Iñigo Revilla; Laia Pons; [2020]
    Keywords : Vertical slot fishway; roughness element; pattern; slope; velocity; turbulence; Fluent;

    Abstract : Migrating freshwater fish population has been significantly declined, mostly by the obstruction of their migratory routes by hydropower dams. To diminish such impacts, fish ladders have been developed to facilitate the passage of migrating fish. READ MORE

  5. 4. DNA damage – a novel method to measure the rate of single-stranded breaks from fragmenting dsDNA in nanochannels – theory and modeling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Magnus Brander; [2020]
    Keywords : biophysics; DNA damage; single-stranded breaks; double-stranded breaks; Bayesian inference; Brownian motion; Gillespie algorithm; photosensitized DNA damage; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Damage to DNA can cause death to an individual cell and serious harm to the host organism. Photosensitized reactions are one cause of DNA damage. It can lead to destructive chemical reactions targeted to a base of the DNA as well as a breakage along one or both of the DNA strands. READ MORE

  6. 5. Energy-efficient apartments for elderly

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Antoni Balcerzak; [2016]
    Keywords : daylight; thermal comfort; shading; overheating; energy-efficiency; elderly people; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The literature claims that elderly people need warmer indoor temperatures, short overheating periods and more light indoors. The thesis analysed a case study building in order to propose a solution of the façade design in the energy-efficient apartments for elderly people. READ MORE
