Objective To develop an accurate method for quantifying differences in the trabecular structure in the tibial bone between subjects with and without knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Standard knee radiographs were taken from 26 subjects (seven women) with meniscectomy and radiographic OA Kellgren & Lawrence grade 2 or worse in the medial compartment. Each case knee was individually matched b

To meet the demands of high electrical efficiencies in combination with low emissions for gas turbine-based power plants, wet cycles have gained new interest. The combustion chamber is a key component in such a power plant. Detailed investigations are necessary to gain insight into the formation of hazardous emissions such as CO and NOx. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been e

Tendons connect muscles to bone and consist of a complex structure of almost parallel collagen fibres embedded in a hydrated matrix. The mechanical behaviour of tendons is viscoelastic and highly non-linear. The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body and it is essential for walking and jumping. It is the most frequently ruptured tendon in humans and today there is no consensus on what i

The objective of this thesis was to find ways of improving part-load efficiency for a spark ignition engine by studying the effects of variable-valve actuation on fluid flow and combustion. The in-cylinder flow was measured with laser doppler velocimetry, LDV, and particle image velocimetry, PIV. A piezo-electric pressure transducer was used to measure the in-cylinder pressure, which was used for

AIM: We investigate if merged gridded satellite rainfall products (CHIRPS, MSWEP, or SUPER), used with the HYPE hydrological model, can replace limited rain gauge measurements when modelling streamflow in poorly gauged basins. Three research questions frame this aim: (1) How does the HYPE hydrological model perform in a poorly gauged basin? (2) Which rainfall product performs better (CHIRPS, MSWEP

This is a Master's thesis, and it is a report on a study on different secondary packaging for the Tetra Brik Aseptic 1500 ml Slim package (TBA 1500 S). At the beginning of this study no installed filling line for the TBA 1500 S package existed. The first line was installed in October. Therefore a similar package was studied, the TBA 1000 S package. Data were collected on this package and then

The aim of this bachelor thesis is to produce a new recycling area for asphalt granulate, more precisely, to reuse it in concrete. Asphalt granulate consists of waste asphalt that have been crushed to a specific fraction. This material will be reused in concrete by replacing certain parts of the conventional aggregate. The aggregate that is used today mainly consists of ungraded crushed rock. Asph

Course evaluation for GEON04 2015 report For 2015, it was the fourth time the Master course GEON04 was taught. This year the student group was smaller, 7 students. The statics for the course are shown below, and in this summary only general comments are made. All involved teachers have received the full report, including comments on each lecture. The involved teachers were asked to reflect upon th

The foundation of this thesis has been to investigate the possibilities of giving Stena Aluminium, a company recycling aluminium, increased control to regulate and steer the risk they are taking when exposing raw material and finished goods. Stena Aluminium wants to minimize the risk of losses on raw material and finished goods when prices change. This is a large problem for instance when raw mate

The content of this thesis consists of two parts. For the first part, size and crystallographic orientational influence on the elastic properties of bcc nanowires and films have been studied through static molecular simulations. In order to explicitly account for surface effects, the concept of surface free energy has been employed. Comparisons between continuum mechanical calculations and results
