  1. 1. Transport of non-spherical particles in pipeflow with suction

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Emil Wångby; [2020]
    Keywords : Brownian motion; Non-spherical particles; Pipe flow;

    Abstract : The interest of how small non-spherical particles transport behaviour when transported in pipe-flow is of large interest in a variety applications. This kind of theory have been used when studying composite manufacturing and how particles behaves in the human lungs. READ MORE

    Abstract : After the sewage wastewater is collected from different households and directed to the treatment plants, it goes through several processes, which are physical, chemical and biological. The different processes remove the contaminant, and produce a semi-solid material named sludge. Sludge has a huge amount of liquid. READ MORE

  3. 3. Effect of soil tillage system and straw retention on soil aggregation and water capacity

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Emma Lindqvist; [2015]
    Keywords : soil; tillage; structure; aggregation; straw; water capacity;

    Abstract : Arable land supplies food and it is therefore important to develop the production and land-use in a sustainable way. To grow crops for food should be both economical and environmentally sustainable and the soil structure and quality should be taken in consideration when cultivating our land. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Effect of Matric Suction on Total Stability Evaluations in Clay

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geoteknik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Keywords : Finite Element Method; Matric Suction; Soil Water Retention Cruve; Total Stability Evaluation; Excavation; Clay; Factor of Safety; Unsaturated Soil; Capillary Rise; Sheet pile; Plaxis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this master´s dissertation I investigated if it is possible to increase the total stability for excavations in clay, if suction is taken into account during the calculations. The work has been performed at, and in cooperation with, Sweco Civil AB as well as the Dept. of Construction Sciences at Faculty of Engineering LTH, Lund University. READ MORE

  5. 5. Alternative forms of sill construction - regarding moisture

    University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Daniel Erlingby; [2010]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Moisture is a recurring parameter in construction. It can have a direct impact on the final result of a construction in the form of damage caused by damp. This usually ensue great economical loss due to disruptions in the construction, mainly as delays and prolonged drying times. READ MORE
