Simulation of indenter geometry effects in nanoindentation

The elastic-plastic behaviour as the response to indenter geometry, such as tip radius and angle, are simulated in the study. The hardness and the Young modulus of the material are determined combining both analytical and numerical methods and their dependence on the tip radius and angle is investigated.

Läsmaskinen. Aspekter på bild och bok med utgångspunkt i Anders Billows verksamhet 1923–1953

The title of this thesis is The Reading Machine. Aspects of Image and Book in the Works of Anders Billow 1923 – 1953. My aim is to revise and complement the historical understanding of the establishing of the modernistic “new typography” within the theory and practice of graphic design. A wider ambition is to, through example, better clarify the surrounding society’s influence on design and how ne

Code-switching in second language teaching of French

Although code-switching has attracted a considerable amount of attention for quite some time, the issue of linguistic switch in foreign language teaching has not been a major subject of scientific study. Using a qualitative approach to individual examples of linguistic switch among three second language teachers of French in Sweden, this article, although highly preliminary, attempts to highlight

Supervising for Independence - A Case Study of Master Science Projects in Higher Education

Students completing a Swedish Master’s degree in engineering should have knowledge and skills to independently solve engineering issues. This autonomy should be developed and demonstrated within the M.Sc. project course. But, how can supervisors encourage independence? We have explored this in a case study through semi-structured interviews with students, supervisors and examiners of two M.Sc. pro

Active Damping of a Flexible Beam

This paper describes the active damping of a flexible beamconnected to the end-effector of a robot manipulator. An observer-basedfeedback controller is developed and experimental results arepresented. Iterative feedback tuning (IFT) is applied to shape the step response.

Viscosity Model Uncertainties in an Ash Stabilization Batch Mixing Process

Recycling wood ash from burnt wood (back to the forest grounds) is of great ecological importance. However, the ash cannot be recycled directly after combustion. There are several reasons for this, one being the volatility of wood ashes. Mixing ash/dolomite/water in order to obtain granular material is one method to stabilize wood ashes. The main problem is predicting the quantity of water to be a
