1. 1. Rock Wedge Stability Assessment : A Comparative Analysis of Limit Equilibrium and Discrete Element Methods

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Vilma Nordh; [2024]
   Keywords : Numerical modelling; wedge stability; 3DEC; UnWedge;

   Abstract : Rock wedge stability is a common concern in underground excavations. Since the wedge stability influences the support design, it is important to use a wedge stability analysis method that can capture factors like excavation geometry, joint parameters and properties, rock mass properties, rock cover, and stress field as accurately as possible.

3. 2. Tuning Photovoltaic Properties of Two-dimensional Molybdenum Disulfide by Alloying: An ab initio study

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Mochen Li; [2023]
   Keywords : Photovoltaic; Molybdenum disulfide; Absorption coefficient; ab initio material design; Fotovoltaisk; Molybdendisulfid; Absorptionskoefficient; ab initio materialdesign;

   Abstract : Addressing the urgent need for innovative energy solutions amidst increasing environmental concerns, the focus on photovoltaic solar cells is intensifying. Currently limited by the Shockley-Queisser limit, conventional silicon-based solar cells offer a maximum power conversion efficiency of 32%. READ MORE

4. 3. Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Human Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

   Author : Simon Gripvall; [2023]
   Keywords : biochemistry; complex; MPC; proteoliposomes; pyruvate; transport; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The metabolism of pyruvate in the cell is abnormally regulated in several human diseases, such as type-II diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, in which the human mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (HuMPC) sits at a pivotal point. It transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and consists of two proteins, MPC1 and MPC2, and is a potential drug target against these diseases. READ MORE

   Author : Therese Badrous; Las Muradi; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The increasing importance of sustainability has led to a focus on smart solutions for energy consumption and materials. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) has gained attention as a sustainable alternative in construction, offering high strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability. READ MORE

6. 5. The path to precision : Comparison analysis of automated neural morphology reconstruction software

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

   Author : Alicia Las Heras Sánchez; Love Lindgren; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The differences in the shape, form and location of neurons are closely linked to their function. Being able to accurately and efficiently reconstruct neurons digitally in a three-dimensional space is necessary for the acquisition of knowledge in this research field. READ MORE
