  1. 1. On linear Reaction-Diffusion systems and Network Controllability

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Rebecka Aulin; Felicia Hage; [2023]
    Keywords : Turing s model of morphogenesis; FDM; FEM; Controllability; Minimal Control; Least Energy Control;

    Abstract : In 1952 Alan Turing published his paper "The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis", which described a model for how naturally occurring patterns, such as the stripes of a zebra and the spots of a leopard, can arise from a spatially homogeneous steady state through diffusion. Turing suggested that the concentration of the substances producing the patterns is determined by the reaction kinetics, how the substances interact, and diffusion. READ MORE

  3. 2. Modeling competitive adsorption of binary mixtures of volatile organic compounds

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Michelle Janus; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Adsorption is a common technique for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial waste streams. The multi-component adsorption on zeolites, particularly the interactions between VOCs and water vapor is sparsely understood and is yet to be described by empiric and full-physical models.

  4. 3. Total body perfusion imaging with 15O-water PET

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Anna Åhlström; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background Positron emission tomography scanners can be used together with the PET tracer 15O-water to image perfusion in the body. It has mainly been used to image perfusion in the brain and heart. The new total-body PET scanners have a larger axial field-of-view, making imaging of the whole body possible without moving the patient. READ MORE

  5. 4. Production of succinic acid by Actinobacillus succinogenes in attached-growth bioreactors and dynamic modelling of biofilm formation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Henrik Östberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Actinobacillus succinogenes; Succinic acid; Biofilm; Attached-growth bioreactor; Dynamic modelling; Cell cultivation; Applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Actinobacillus succinogenes is a microorganism is a very efficient producer of succinic acid, a chemical with a wide range of industrial applications. The bacterium is prone to form biofilm, a flocculation of cells attached to a surface. READ MORE

  6. 5. Experimental study on the effect of rocket nozzle wall materials on the stability of methane

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Thomas L. Holmboe; [2023]
    Keywords : Methane; pyrolysis; catalysis; nickel; coke deposition; chemical modelling; GRI3.0; rocket nozzle; regenerative cooling;

    Abstract : There has recently been an increased interest in methane as a rocket propellant due to its physical properties as well as the possibility of in-situ resource utilization in places like Mars. As part of ESA’s Future Launcher Preparatory Program, KTH in cooperation with GKN Aerospace has started the MERiT program, which seeks to study the characteristics of methane under conditions found in rocket nozzle cooling channels.
