  1. 16. Differential Interferometry and Multiple-Aperture Interferometry for Retrieving Three-Dimensional Measurements of Glacial Surface Velocity

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Luke Webber; [2016]
    Keywords : Differential Interferometry; Multiple-Aperture Interferometry; 3D; Glacial Surface Velocity;

    Abstract : The measurement and monitoring of glacial surface velocity is important for many aspects of glaciology, such as determining the mass balance, for characterising the stability or instability of glaciers, or the identification of potential hazards from surging glaciers or Jökulhlaups, a type of glacial outburst flood. Predominately measurements of glacial surface velocity have been produced using either differential interferometry (DInSAR) applied to radar data, or offset-tracking applied to either optical or radar data.

  3. 17. Mass conservative network model for convective net flow in a complex urban geometry

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Linus Olofsson; [2016]
    Keywords : Network model; Street canyons; Intersections; Urban dispersion; CFD data; CFD simulations; Atmospheric exchange;

    Abstract : When simulating air flows in an urban environment, for e.g. pollutant dispersion investigations, today's main tool is advanced computational fluid dynamics simulations. These simulations take a lot of time and resources to perform, even for small geometries. READ MORE

  4. 18. Can mussel farming be used as an offset in mitigating eutrophication in the Baltic Sea?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Anna Pettersson; [2016]
    Keywords : mussel; marginal cost; abatement; allocation; uncertainty discount;

    Abstract : The Baltic Sea suffers from eutrophication, which is due to leaking soil and emissions from industries, sewage plants and the agricultural sector. Helcom, the Convention of Helsinki has stated that the abatement targets for phosphorus and nitrogen have still not been reached. READ MORE

  5. 19. A comparison of 5G candidate waveforms subject to phase noise impairment at mm-wave frequencies

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Vicent Molés Cases; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Frequencies above 6 GHz are being considered by mobile communication industry for the deployment of future 5G networks. Large channel bandwidths above 6 GHz are likely to be used to serve diverse use cases and meet extreme user requirements. READ MORE

  6. 20. Probability of failure in Turbine Exhaust Cases subjected to crack propagation

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Rasmus Johansson; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the aviation industry the most important factor is safety. GKN are producing the Turbine Exhaust Case (TEC) which is a component in an airplane engine. The welds in an airplane engine are a risk for a breakdown because of fatigue failure due to crack propagation. READ MORE
