1. Antarctic Subglacial Lakes as Environmental Analogues for Possible Hidden Biospheres on the Moons Europa and Enceladus
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The evolving science of astrobiology for the search for life beyond Earth has put focus on the possibility of subsurface bodies of liquid water beneath the surface of icy moons within our Solar System. Specifically, the Jovian moon of Europa and the Saturnian moon of Enceladus show telling characteristics of endogenous heating through their complex tidal resonances with their parent planets – suggesting the presence of oceans of liquid water and therefore a potential for astrobiology.

2. Effect of Proton Irradiation on the Mechanical Properties of Fe-10Cr-4Al in Liquid Lead
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : Among the structural materials under consideration for future lead-cooled fastreactors, special attention is paid to ferritic Fe-10Cr-4Al due to its superior corrosionand erosion protective properties, as well as its insensitivity to liquid metalembrittlement in liquid lead. This thesis gives an inside look into the radiation damageproperties of the alloy and the possible embrittlement scenarios. READ MORE

3. Erosion of materials in centrifugal separation
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskapAbstract : Centrifugal separation is a crucial piece of technology, used in a wide range of industries. In cases where solid particles are included in the working medium, erosive wear of componentsinside a centrifugal separator is one of the reasons limiting its service life. READ MORE

4. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/GeoteknologiAbstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

5. Identifying risks of AdBlue spray on stainless steel surfaces
University essay from KTH/KemiteknikAbstract : Utsläppskontroll, reglerad av allt strängare lagstiftning, ställer höga krav på utvecklingen av noggranna efterbehandlingssystem för avgaser. När det gäller utsläpp från dieselmotorer utgör NOx-minskning en av de största utmaningarna. För tunga fordon tacklas denna utmaning ofta genom ett SCR-system. READ MORE
