  1. 31. EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PRESSURE LOSSES IN ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED AND MACHINED ORIFICES : A rectangular geometry of additively manufactured MA 247 orice and a circular geometry ofmachined AW-6082 T6 orifice study

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Jayadev Nambisan; [2020]
    Keywords : Cooling; Fluid Dynamics; Additive Manufacturing; Pressure Losses; Fluid Dynamics Testing; Machining; Gas Turbines; Gas Turbine Cooling; Nouveau Geometries;

    Abstract : Gas turbine components for cooling purposes including other unique and complex three-dimensional designs could be made explicitly possible through additive manufacturing using SLM technology in contrary to the conventional machining processes. Nevertheless, the surface roughness and subsequently the friction factor governs thepressure drop in these components implicitly, thus, influencing the secondary air flow system of a gas turbine.

  3. 32. A Critique of the Learning Brain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för teoretisk filosofi

    Author : Joakim Olsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Learning Brain; Learning; Cognitivism; Representational Theory of Mind; Computational Theory of Mind; Mentalism; Mind-Brain Identity; Computer Analogy; Scientism; Anthropological Holism; Enactivism; Intentionality; Intentional Action; Phenomenology; Philosophy of Mind; Cognitive Science; Capabilities; Practical Knowledge; Bildung; Wolf Singer; Kurt W. Fischer; Jerry Fodor; Vincent Descombes; Ludwig Wittgenstein; Elizabeth Anscombe; Evan Thompson;

    Abstract : The guiding question for this essay is: who is the learner? The aim is to examine and criticize one answer to this question, sometimes referred to as the theory of the learning brain, which suggests that the explanation of human learning can be reduced to the transmitting and storing of information in the brain’s formal and representational architecture, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 33. The Privatization of Migration Detention: State Responsibility for Offshore Detention Centers

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakulteten

    Author : Rebecca Jonsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Public International Law; Human Rights Law; Migration; State responsibility; Detention Centers; PMSC; Non-State Actors; ARSIWA; ECHR; Jurisdiction; EU; Law and Political Science;

    Abstract : In the last three decades, detention centers have become the preferred method to manage the migration flow in multiple states within the European Union (EU). In correlation to the increasing use of detention centers, there has been a shift from states having a type of monopoly on migration management functions, to an increase of states outsourcing their responsibility to private companies.

  5. 34. SoFo in Stockholm: Placemaking in the age of hipster urbanism

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle (KS)

    Author : Christopher Pickering; [2020]
    Keywords : critical urban theory; gentrification; grassroots; place; placemaking; housing; small business;

    Abstract : The transformation of cities through gentrification and the commodification of culture and green space are central problems in Urban Studies. This thesis investigated how cities like Stockholm can move forward from this gentrification. READ MORE

  6. 35. Do variations in the initial mass function affect galaxy evolution?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Mateo Prgomet; [2020]
    Keywords : galaxy; galaxy formation; galaxy evolution; feedback; star formation; ultra faint dwarf galaxy; initial mass function; variations; universe; redshift; hydrodynamics; cosmology; zoomed-in simulations Galaxy formation and evolution; galaxy feedback; stellar feedback; IMF variations; cosmological zoomed-in simulations; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The initial mass function (IMF) describes the stellar mass distribution for a population of stars at birth. This parameter represents a topic of long standing discussion within astronomy due to its apparent insensitive nature to environmental conditions. However, in the last decade, significant evidence suggesting the contrary has been presented. READ MORE
