The Scania-HBV model has been used for modeling hydropower generation of California, USA. California is a state with considerable meteorological and hydrological diversity, meanwhile with a total capacity of 14116 MW of 386 hydroelectricity generation units with capacity larger than 0.1 MW, California is the USA’s second largest state on hydropower. For such a giant hydropower state, prediction of
Hematopoietic cells have secretory lysosomes that degranulate at the inflammatory site upon stimulation. We asked whether one could target exogenous proteins with a therapeutic potential to secretory lysosomes in hematopoietic cells. For this purpose, we expressed a soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor form (sTNFR1) in hematopoietic cell lines. In order to accomplish targeting to secretory
Abstract in UndeterminedIn today's technology generations, e.g. 90 and 65 nm, the static power consumption becomes a major contributor to the total power consumption. This paper focuses on the arithmetic level and shows a methodology for a substantial reduction of the static power consumption. Simulations are done in a typical 130 nm technology. Based on the simulation results, the static power in
At the 3 GeV ring of the MAX IV Laboratory, a fourth-generation ring-based synchrotron light source, an asymmetric influence of the sign of the amplitude-dependent tune shift (ADTS) on the transverse mode-coupling instability has been observed. Measurements of the instability, in dedicated single-bunch experiments at low chromaticity, revealed a significant dependence of the dynamics of the instab
Thermal fluids is a multidisciplinary research area focusing on the behavior, interaction, and transport of heat, energy, and fluids. It encompasses topics like thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer, addressing challenges in energy systems, aerospace, manufacturing, and environmental engineering. Applications include cooling technolo-gies, combustion, renewable energy, and optimizing t

A simplified description and a corresponding force field for polypeptides is introduced. Each amino acid residue is reduced to one interaction site, representing the backbone, and one or two side chain sites depending on its size and complexity. Site–site interactions are parameterized after a hydrophobicity criterium. The treatment of backbone sites is in addition designed to reproduce typical po
MAX IV is presently under construction at Lund, Sweden, and the first beam for the production of synchrotron radiation is expected to circulate in 2016. The whole set of 3 GeV ring beam pipes is coated with Ti-Zr-V Non Evaporable Getter (NEG) thin film in order to fulfil the average pressure requirement of 1×10-9 mbar, despite the compact magnet layout and the large aspect ratio of the vacuum cham
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hemoglobin, det protein som transporterar syre i blodet är förmodligen det mest välkända proteinet. Det är ett av många exempel på porfyrinproteiner, dvs. proteiner med en porfyrinring i det aktiva centrat. Porfyrinen kan binda en metalljon i mitten av ringen. När en järnjon är bunden kallas strukturen hem. Det är denna molekyl som finns i hemoglobin. I denna avhandling
Popular Abstract in Swedish På grund av den förutspådda energi krisen som föranleds av att oljan tar slut, är det viktigt att söka efter alternativa energikällor. Att utnyttja solljuset via en artificiell fotosyntes är en intressant möjlighet. Det långsiktiga målet för forskning på detta område är att bygga molekylära och/eller fasta material som kan använda solljus för att dela vatten i dess best
The total of catalytic particles is often unavailable to participate in the electrochemical reactions in a PEFC, which limits the PEFC performance. The electrochemical surface area (ECSA) becomes an important metric to diagnose the catalyst layer's performance and evaluate the development of new electrode materials to achieve better overall efficiency. This work intends to analyze the effects of a
Online wall temperatures were measured with fiber-coupled phosphor thermometry in a full-scale gas turbine combustor. The combustor was operated with natural gas and up to 100 vol% hydrogen at engine-relevant conditions. Two phosphors were tested for this application, namely YAG:Dy and YAG:Tm;Li. Although YAG:Tm;Li seemed to be the most promising phosphor for this application, it turned out to be
Novel micro-scale reaction devices are progressing in various applications. Whereas, specialized gas-producing reactors of high conversion at micro/mini scale remain challenging and are rarely explored, but are needed urgently in new generation vehicles and aerospace applications. In this work, two kinds of high-aspect-ratio flat channel (200 μm depth, 5.0 mm width, and 40.0 mm length) microreacto
Micro-droplets with excellent physical properties and size effects are widely used in different fields. Peristaltic pumps are often used for droplet generation. The thrust force of pumps is periodic as a periodic disturbance when the time scale is short enough. Numerical simulation based on a validated model was applied to study the periodic disturbance effects on droplet generation in a cross-jun
Stigande energianvändning och global uppvärmning har lett till en ökad efterfrågan av förnyel-sebara energikällor. Ett alternativ är att utnyttja avloppsvatten för att producera biogas. Avlopps-vatten kan därav ses som en resurs snarare än avfall. I biogasproduktion används anaerob ned-brytning där mikroorganismer bryter ner organiskt material till metan. Primär rening är första steget inom avlopThe global heating has resulted in rising temperatures and more extreme weather conditions around the world. In combination with increasing energy demands, this has led to an increasing demand of renewable energy. One option is utilizing the wastewater to produce biogas. There-fore, wastewater can be seen as a resource rather than waste. Biogas production is based on anaerobic digestion where micr
