With nanotechnology, our researchers can create very small structures. The technology enables the development of materials that hold promise for future advances in fields such as information technology, sustainability and precision medicine. When a material becomes very small, it can acquire entirely new properties. On the nanoscale, a substance can behave in a radically different way than when it

AL-Karama dam, the second largest dam in Jordan, was constructed in the Jordan valley area in the year 1979. Currently, the dam holds about 72% of its designed storage capacity with total dissolved solids concentration of 2.2%. The dam water was designed to irrigate 100 km2 of new reclaimed areas and to provide drinking water for more than 30,000 residences. In this work, solar desalination system

Assume that we have two perspective images with known intrinsic parameters except for an unknown common focal length. It is a minimally constrained problem to find the relative orientation between the two images given six corresponding points. We present an efficient solution to the problem and show that there are 15 solutions in general (including complex solutions). To the best of our knowledge

Growing US-Israeli tension over continued East Jerusalem settlement construction – which the White House appears unable to stop – underscores a deeper reality: The two-state solution is no longer possible. What are the alternatives? For the past few years, the idea of a “parallel states” structure has been discussed, suggesting a scenario with a two-states structure on the same land, both states c

Grating interferometer based imaging with X-rays and neutrons has proven to hold huge potential for applications in key research fields conveying biology and medicine as well as engineering and magnetism, respectively. The thereby amenable dark-field imaging modality implied the promise to access structural information beyond reach of direct spatial resolution. However, only here a yet missing app

Assume that we have two perspective images with known intrinsic parameters except for an unknown common focal length. It is a minimally constrained problem to find the relative orientation between the two images given six corresponding points. To this problem which to the best of our knowledge was unsolved we present an efficient solver. Through numerical experiments we demonstrate that the algori

Modern wind turbines are designed to withstand approximately for a lifetime of 20 years [1]. However, a very long design life of 100 years or more can be expected for high-quality concrete foundations. Thus there is a big difference in lifetime between wind turbines and foundations. There is a significant economic benefit of replacing the out-of-date wind turbine with a new turbine of better power

In this chapter we summarize the solution developed by team KTH for the Amazon Picking Challenge 2016 in Leipzig, Germany. The competition, which simulated a warehouse automation scenario, was divided into two parts: a picking task, where the robot picks items from a shelf and places them into a tote, and a stowing task, where the robot picks items from a tote and places them in a shelf. We descri

This report is part of a Master Thesis Project in Mechanical Engineering with Industrial Design at the Faculty of Engineering LTH at Lund University. The project was performed in collaboration with Hammarplast Consumer Ab, a Swedish company founded in 1947 manufacturing household items in plastic. Hammarplast Consumer Ab is part of the Orthex group, which is the leading Nordic company within t

Biochar is a recalcitrant carbon rich solid product widely praised for the ability to improve soil fertility and sequester carbon, thereby improving crop yields and mitigating climate change. In addition to this, gaseous by products from production can be combusted for energy. Despite the recent global peaks in biochar research, studies focused on temperate regions are relatively scarce and few Eu

There is a lot of discussion going on how to adapt to the changing climatic conditions, especially in countries where financial resources are limited. The built environment has been identified as a key area of intervention. As disasters, such as typhoons, can devastate entire cities, it is essential that the most important buildings in these cities, the lifelines so to speak, are resilient and can

Den här rapporten redovisar det arbete som utförts av Andreas Byström och Josefin Salomonsson inom ramen för civilingenjörsprogrammets examensarbete. Arbetet har utförts på Scania, avdelningen för specialfordon från november 2009 till april 2010. Scania har en lång bakgrund som leverantör av militära fordon till försvarsmakter världen över. Scanias militära lastbilar är uppbyggda av samma grundstThis report is a result of a Master Thesis project in mechanical engineering by Andreas Byström and Josefin Salomonsson. The thesis was carried out at Scania CV AB at the department for Special Vehicles and the Division of Machine Design at the Department of Design Science at LTH from November 2009 to April 2010.

Limited-slip differentials (LSD) are normally placed in high-end and race cars to improve the handling, by reducing the differential speed and balancing the torque between the driving wheels. However, electrical-activated LSD struggles to continuously eliminate the differential speed over extended periods of time. To overcome this, BorgWarner proposed a dual-functional clutch pack, featuring two d

Denna uppsats handlar om särskilda problem som kan drabba parterna i en domstolsprocess på grund av att de har olika tillgång till relevant information. Det huvudsakliga föremålet för min undersökning har varit exempel på avtal som används för att komma tillrätta med ett ojämlikt informationsläge innan en process faktiskt inleds. För att ge en bakgrund till de avtalen börjar jag dock med att gå igThis essay deals with specific problems that can affect the parties in court proceedings because they have different degrees of access to relevant information. The main purpose of my investigation was to find examples of contracts used to adress unequalities in the parties’ abilities as it comes to pre-trial information collectio. I begin, however, with a rough sketch of the main features of the r
