In gas turbine engine, nickel base alloy, such as Alloy 718, accounts for almost half of the total material requirement. Nickel-base superalloys are used for gas turbine components mainly because of their outstanding strength and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures (> 550°C). The massive cost involved with the machining of nickel alloys has driven continued research and development of cut

Abstract Biocatalysis is considered as benign and efficient alternative to chemical catalysis for organic syntheses. Lipases are the most versatile biological catalysts implemented so far with great potential for production of different chemicals and materials in non-conventional reaction media. This thesis presents investigations on lipase catalyzed esterification and transesterification reaction

Deuterated biomolecules - where hydrogen atoms (H) are exchanged to its isotope deuterium (D) - are essential for biological experiments in neutron scattering, but they are not readily available. In neutron scattering, D has a strong positive coherent scattering length (6.67 fm) in comparison with the negative scattering length of H (-3.74 fm). These different characteristics of neutrons to D and

Multi-component transient signals show up in many different areas, most commonly in communication and radar but are also often found in measurements of human related signals, such as electrical responses of the heart and the brain. Transient signals are also typical in animal acoustic applications, e.g., dolphin echo locations and bird song syllables. The usual basis functions in linear modeling o

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av en inledning och 4 artiklar. Den första artikeln, Young people and alcohol: an econometric analysis, analyser bestämningsfaktorerna för ungdomars konsumtion av alkohol ur ett hälsoekonomiskt perspektiv. Huvudresultatet i artikeln är att ungdomar som har föräldrar som är villiga att tillhandahålla alkohol till dem är mer benägna att dricka alkohol,This thesis consists of four essays on risky health behaviour among adolescents. In the first paper, Young people and alcohol: an econometric analysis, the purpose was to analyse the determinants of adolescent drinking behaviour within an economic-theoretical framework. The results showed that having parents willing to supply alcohol increased the frequency of beer-, wine-, and spirits-consumption

The question of environmental protection has lately become essential due to the increased number of polluters and accidents that have occurred in recent decades. The starting point was the Torrey Canyon disaster which happened in March 1967 and exposed the entire international community to a great danger of environmental harm in general and marine pollution in particular. The accident also pointed

Fuel cells are considered as a promising alternative environmentally benign power source to the existing ones depending on petroleum oil. Especially, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have been intensively developed during the last decade because of their wide application windows including various portable, stationary and transportation applications. The market has been and will be main

Electric power grids have a limited capacity for safe and reliable transfer of power. Due to the ongoing large-scale expansion of variable renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, there is a growing need for rapid gridcapacity increase.This thesis explores methods for improving and expanding grid capacity through control of converter-interfaced energy resources, including wind and solar p
