  2. 2. Synthesis and Characterization of Materials for Carbon Based Hybrid Asymmetric Supercapacitor Electrodes

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Avital Cherednik; [2023]
    Keywords : Supercapacitor; hybrid supercapacitor; metal oxide nanoparticles; carbon electrodes; ionic liquid; Superkondensator; hybrid superkondensator; metaloxid nanopartiklar; kolelektroder; jonvätska;

    Abstract : Superkondensatorer är energilagringsenheter som har uppmärksammats mer under det senaste decenniet. Några av de fördelar som dessa enheter har varit är lagring av hög effekttäthet, förlängda livscykler och snabba laddnings- och urladdningstider. READ MORE

  3. 3. Model Predictive Urea Dosing Control Strategy for Heavy-Duty Diesel Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Mathias Schmekel; [2023]
    Keywords : Model predictive control; Selective catalytic reduction; Nitrogen oxides; Modell-prediktiv reglering; Selektiv katalytisk reduktion; Kväveoxider;

    Abstract : Stricter requirements on the reduction of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) in the emissions of heavy-duty diesel vehicles drives development for more efficient aftertreatment systems. An ammonia covered catalyst is one of the most successful technologies in reducing NOx by converting it into the harmless byproducts water and nitrogen. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation of high temperature stability of additive manufactured austenitic stainless steels for space applications

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Belén Alonso Rancurel; [2023]
    Keywords : austenitic stainless steel; additive manufacturing; high temperature corrosion; high temperature stability;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques are being studied for their application in the aerospace industry. Numerous benefits come from the already in shape final piece, which needs reduced amount of prime material for its production and can have its shape numerically optimized for weight reduction.

  5. 5. Sputtered Transparent Contact Layers for Bifacial and Tandem Solar Cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Author : Klara Kiselman; [2022]
    Keywords : Solar cells; ITO; indium doped tin oxide; bifacial cell; tandem cell; transparent conductive oxides;

    Abstract : A key to solar cells with lower environmental impact is higher efficiency and reduced material usages. Bifacial solar cells may have a higher efficiency as light can enter from two directions and tandem solar cells may use a larger part of the incoming solar spectrum, increasing the efficiency.
