  1. 11. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
    Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

    Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

  2. 12. mmWave Coverage Extension Using Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces in Indoor Dense Spaces

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Zhenyu Li; [2023]
    Keywords : mmWave Communication; Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface; Ray Tracing; Indoor Dense Spaces;

    Abstract : Millimeter-wave (mmWave) is widely investigated for indoor communication scenarios thanks to the available rich spectrum. However, the shortened antenna size and the high frequency make mmWave extra sensitive to blockages. READ MORE

  3. 13. Investigation of different ventilation profiles to avoid stratification in Nearly Zero Energy Buildings

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Alazne Irene Varela Santana; [2023]
    Keywords : stratification; water model; comfort; mixing; temperature; potential energy; net zero energy building;

    Abstract : This research paper examines possible solutions for the problems that warm air heating is suffering in Nearly Zero Energy Buildings. These NZEBs are passive houses constructed to have high energy efficiency where the quantity of power used is equal to the power created annually, produced locally or in the surroundings by renewable energy sources.

  4. 14. Synthesis of Organo-Iron(II) Complexes Including N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligation as Solar Cell Material.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Salim Charkas; [2023]
    Keywords : Dye-sensitized solar cell; Transition metal complex; Synthesis iron; N-heterocyclic carbene NHC ; Organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The push-pull design has been shown to increase DSC performance through the introduction of electron-withdrawing groups and electron-donating groups, usually on opposite far ends of the sensitizer. The scope of this thesis was to synthesize several pre-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand analogs that are inspired by the push-pull design in an attempt to investigate their susceptibility to Fe(II) complexation.

  5. 15. Influence from temperature variations in stacking fault energy on the mechanical properties of stainless steels

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Christopher Hallén; Marcus Johansson Storne; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This paper investigates the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of austenitic stainless steels and how they relate to the material property of stacking fault energy (SFE) and its relation to temperature and nickel content. Austenitic stainless steels are commonly used and well known for good mechanical properties and deformation characteristics. READ MORE
