1. 1. Petrological, geochemical and structural evidence of fluid-rock interaction in the Siljan Ring

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

   Author : William Crang; [2024]
   Keywords : methane; hydrothermal fluids; fluid-rock interaction; impact craters; reduction haloes; pyrite preservation; Siljan Ring;

   Abstract : The Siljan Ring in Dalarna, Sweden is the site of the largest meteor impact crater in Europe and has long been a topic of discussion regarding methane production. However, the source of this methane and the timing of production in relation to the impact remain unclear. READ MORE

3. 2. Optimization of an advanced algorithm for bone imaging

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Adam Mrozek; [2022]
   Keywords : osteoporosis; optimization; programming; engineering; X-ray; bone; mineral density; speed; faster; projection; MATLAB; C ; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Fracture risk in osteoporosis is increased and osteoporosis is the most common metabolic bone disease and treatment is expensive. Osteoporosis is diagnosed by measuring Bone Mineral Density (BMD), which does not consider other factors such as bone geometry or architecture. READ MORE

4. 3. Numerical simulations of pore pressure on concrete buttress dams

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : Mohammed Abdi; Dimitirios Ntzimanis; [2022]
   Keywords : Porepressureanalysis; upliftpressure; buttressdams; drainage; groutcur- tain; rockfractures; damsafety; RIDAS.;

   Abstract : Uplift pressure is one of the most dominant forces on a dam structure. Difference in head water and tail water creates a hydraulic gradient resulting an upward oriented pressure called uplift pressure, which reduces the dam safety against sliding. READ MORE

5. 4. An Investigation of the breakage process of particles : With help of experimental results and discrete element methods

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

   Author : Ronni Bashiry; [2021]
   Keywords : Geotechnical Engineering; Breakage; Fracture; Spherical particles; DEM; Modelling; Numerical modelling;

   Abstract : In this study the breakage mechanics of brittle glass marbles was investigated. The pro-cess was to firstly investigate them in laboratory environment. The marbles or specimens was loaded until a crushing breakage occurred in a single point load test called Single Sphere Point load test in this document. READ MORE

6. 5. The effect of vessel holes on fracture behaviour in the femoral neck of the human femur

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Sofia Rokkones; Karin Odin; [2020]
   Keywords : image analysis; femur; FE model; biomechanics; CT image; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hip fractures are widely spread in today's society and affect a person's quality of life. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that results in more fragile bones and an increased risk of bone fractures, including hip fractures. A method proposed for assessing the fracture risk is finite element (FE) models of the femur. READ MORE
