1. Modeling wave behavior with linear wave theory
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysikAbstract : This thesis aimed to look at the behaviours of the water beneath waves from a modeling and simulations point of view. We have investigated how to use Linear wave theory (LWT) to model the kinematic movements in water governed by free ocean waves. The model assumes the surface to consist of a superposition of sinusoidal waves. READ MORE

2. Geometry Dependent Optimal Bounds of Absorption and Scattering Cross-section for Small Nanoparticles
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)Abstract : Light-matter interaction in particles of subwavelength size mostly depends on the size, shape, composition of the particles and relies on the properties of incident light. Henceforth, resonant behavior of light can be effectively controlled by changing the aforesaid geometrical parameters. READ MORE

3. Including Finite Larmor Radius Effects on RF Heating of Fusion Plasmas using Weak-Form Contributions in COMSOL
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : In a fusion plasma, the ions have to be heated to reach fusion relevant temperatures. One possibility is to launch an electromagnetic wave in the radio frequency band into the plasma. This wave can resonate with the ions at their cyclotron frequency and hence, the method is called ion cyclotron resonance heating. READ MORE

4. The K-distribution method for calculating thermal infrared radiative transfer in the atmosphere : A two-stage numerical procedure based on Gauss-Legendre quadrature
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)Abstract : The K-distribution method is a fast approximative method used for calculating thermal infrared radiative transfer in the atmosphere, as opposed to the traditional Line-by-line method, which is precise, but very time-costly. Here we consider the atmosphere to consist of homogeneous and plane-parallel layers in local thermal equilibrium. READ MORE

5. Real-time characterization of fuel by Near-Infrared spectroscopy : Quantitative measurements of moisture content, ash content, heating value, and elemental compositions in solid biofuel mixtures
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknikAbstract : The global energy demand supplies mainly from fossil fuels, which is neither sustainable nor environmentally friendly and aims to global warming. Therefore, both more investments in renewable energy sources such as bioenergy are required, as well as new technologies such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) to handle the emissions from existing combined heat and power (CHP) plants.
