1. Modeling of the trajectory of ice thrown from a wind turbine
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaperAbstract : There is a growing number of wind turbines installed in cold temperature zones as a result of the restricted space for new construction. Due to ice deposition on the turbine blades, the increasing installation of wind turbines in freezing temperature areas presents many challenges: ice accumulation increases weight, unbalances the rotor, diminishes aerodynamic efficiency, and creates safety issues.

2. Investigation of Antenna Radomes in Low Earth Orbits
University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntesAbstract : Introduction: This master’s thesis focuses on exploring improved alternative material solutions for antenna radomes used to protect Beyond Gravity Sweden’s satellite antennas in low Earth orbits. Background: As the environment in low Earth orbit is harsh, surface materials on satellites experience high levels of atomic oxygen, ultra violet radiation, thermal-fluctuation, charged particles and micro meteoroids.

3. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : 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

4. Applying spatially and temporally adaptive techniques for faster DEM-based snow simulation
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : Background. Physically-based snow simulation is computationally expensive and not yet applicable to real-time applications. Some of the prime factors for this cost are the complex physics, the large number of particles, and the small time step required for a high-quality and stable simulation. READ MORE

5. Experimental assessment of properties for a non-aqueous and precipitating alkanolamine absorption system
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Abstract : With increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, energy efficient carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies could prove important to enable reductions in the global CO2 emissions. The aim was to investigate a novel, non-aqueous, and precipitating chemical absorption system of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), which forms solid carbamate salt crystals with CO2.
