  1. 1. Ozone oxidation of fatty acid thin films: a TIR Raman study

    University essay from KTH/Yt- och korrosionsvetenskap

    Author : Frida Preuss; [2022]
    Keywords : ozone oxidation; TIR Raman; fatty acid; vibrational spectroscopy; thin film formation; ozonoxidation; TIR Raman; fettsyra; vibrationsspektroskopi; skapande av tunna filmer;

    Abstract : Detta examensarbete initierades och handledes av Mellifiq, ett företag som arbetar med rening av luft och vatten, där en applikation är rening av köksfrånluft med ozon. Ozon förhindrar att fettpartiklar i frånluften ansamlas på väggarna i kanalen och värmeväxlaren, vilket leder till högre brandsäkerhet och mer effektiv användning av värmeväxlaren. READ MORE

  4. 3. Does Static stretching and/or Muscle fatigue create a Cross-over effect? : An experimental study

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Michelle Nordin; [2015]
    Keywords : static stretching; cross-over; muscle fatigue; cross-over effect; strength performance;

    Abstract : Background: Extensive literature has described a decrease in force output performance in the local muscle groups after static stretching, and static stretching has therefore been recommended not to be performed during warm-ups. A recent study showed evidence of a cross-over effect in regard to static stretching, i.e. READ MORE
