  1. 21. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Modeling of a Free Surface Flow

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Mathieu Marmier; [2023]
    Keywords : CFD; Free Surface Flow; VOF; STAR-CCM ; Multiphase Simulation; Nuclear Engineering; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : This project deals with the CFD modelling of a free surface flow. The aim is to develop and validate a fast and accurate numerical model for stratified two-phase flows. Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase model is employed. The purpose is to use the developed numerical model for the design of an element within a compact nuclear reactor. READ MORE

  3. 22. Is sugar as sweet to the palate asseeds are appetizing to the belly? : Taste responsiveness to seven sweet-tastingsubstances in white-faced sakis (Pithecia pithecia)

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Mikel Redin Hurtado; [2023]
    Keywords : Food-associated carbohydrates; relative sweetness; seed predation; steviol glycosides; taste preference thresholds; taste responsiveness; white-faced sakis;

    Abstract : Differences in taste perception between species are thought to reflect evolutionaryadaptations to dietary specializations such as seed predation. By employing a two-bottlepreference test, the purpose of the current study was to evaluate the taste responsiveness forfive food-associated carbohydrates and two steviol glycosides in four adult white-faced sakis(Pithecia pithecia).

  4. 23. Sensitivity of Norway Spruce (Picea abies) to inundation.

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Whitney Cleopatra Vlahakis; [2023]
    Keywords : Inundation; riparian zone; spruce seedlings; restoration; mortality;

    Abstract : Alteration of river flow regimes due to dams result in modifications of riparian ecosystem, with impacts on vegetation, landforms, and habitats. A key characteristic that differentiates riparian zones from adjacent aquatic and terrestrial environments is the event of periodic flooding and water logging. READ MORE

  5. 24. Perceptual Sensitivity to Video Degradations in a Simulated Cloud-Gaming Environment: An Empirical Study through Subjective Tests

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Boli Gao; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud gaming, often referred to as gaming on demand or game streaming, is a contemporary form of online gaming. It operates by running video games on powerful, remote servers and streaming them in realtime directly to a user’s device. READ MORE

  6. 25. Enabling Hybrid Real Time and Retrospectively Gated Imaging in a Numerical Phantom

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Sara Mineur; [2023]
    Keywords : Cardiovascular Magnetic resonance Imaging CMR ; Sector Wise Golden-Angle SWIG ;

    Abstract : Sector-Wise Golden Angle (SWIG) is a novel approach that was developed to address the limitations associated with Golden Angle radial imaging, commonly used for high temporal resolution flow measurements. Golden angle radial imaging is a time-efficient method that effectively reduces motion sensitivity. READ MORE
