  1. 1. Fire Safety of Facades

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Bogdan-Grigore Branisteanu-Albulescu; [2019]
    Keywords : polystyrene; graphene; façade; pyrolysis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Façade fires are a big concern due to past incidents and the large number of victims encountered. Vertical flame spread mechanism specific to this type of fires is a complex phenomenon with parameters that are often difficult to be coupled. READ MORE

  3. 2. Influence of nitrocarburization on the thermomechanical fatigue properties of ductile iron for exhaust components : Analysis and comparisons of TMF-properties

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

    Author : Karl Larsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Thermo-mechanical fatigue; low cycle fatigue; thermal strain; ductile cast iron; nitrocarburizing;

    Abstract : New stricter environmental legislation requires lower emissions and fuel consumption of automotive engines. Therefore the fuel efficiency must be increased but this leads to higher loads in the engine. As for the exhaust system it is affected by higher thermomechanical loads. READ MORE

  4. 3. Thermoset biopolymer reinforced with carbon-nanotubes

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Morteza Esmaeili; [2019]
    Keywords : biopolymers; bio-composites; glycerol lactic acid; carbon nanotube; reinforcement; thermoset; dispersion;

    Abstract : Compared to conventional fibers, carbon nanotubes possess several significant properties, which make them as an excellent alternative reinforcement in multi-functional material industry. In this study, the possibility of dispersion of the multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) in a thermoset bio-based resin (synthesized based on end-functionalized glycerol-lactic acid oligomers, GLA, at university of Borås) was investigated.

  5. 4. Experimental Study of Heat Transfer Coefficient and Film Cooling Effectiveness

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Ke Li; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the possibility to evaluate the film cooling thermal performance on flat plate using Thermochromic Liquid Crystal. After an introduction of the basic concept and background of gas turbine blades film cooling and Thermochromic Liquid Crystal, a thorough explanation of four methods is presented. READ MORE

  6. 5. Reframing plastic through experiences at a beach clean-up : a frame analysis of experience-based learnings at a beach clean-up for creating knowledge, building responsibility and motivation to shape individuals’ pro-environmental plastic behaviours

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Jana Ricarda Busch; [2019]
    Keywords : plastic crisis; frames; behavioural change; pro-environmental behaviour; motivation; responsibility; beach clean-ups; citzen science project; experience-based learning; Spain;

    Abstract : The plastic crisis is one of the major environmental challenges of our times. Plastic pollution impacts our health, water, tourism, fishing and overall ecosystem. Plastic debris has accumulated in natural habitats from the poles to the equator. READ MORE
