Full textAbstract:
The transfermium nucleus No-254 (Z = 102, N = 152) has been studied in a recoil-decay tagging experiment using the SAGE in-beam spectrometer, RITU gas-filled separator and GREAT focal-plane spectrometer at the Accelerator Laboratory of the University of Jyväskylä (JYFL). Both γ rays and conversion electrons from the ground-state band of No-254 have been observed with SAGE. Coincidences between them can be seen and it is possible to measure internal conversion coefficients for some transitions in the band. This shows that they have E2 multipolarity, as expected for a rotational band built on a Kπ = 0+ state. The two previously identified K isomers in No-254 have also been seen. In the prompt data tagged on the slow isomer’s decay the prominent 605 keV transition from previous decay spectroscopy experiments is not seen with the expected intensity. This allows one of the previously proposed level schemes to be ruled out. It is possible that this transition is not seen in the in-beam data at all and the peak at this energy is entirely from inelastic neutron scattering reactions within the SAGE germanium detectors. If this is the case the 605 keV transition could directly depopulate the fast isomer into a band built on the slow isomer without any intermediate structure. There is not enough data to measure γ-ray branching ratios in the band built on the slow isomer so a new method has been developed to determine the single-particle structure of the isomer by comparing the in-beam conversion-electron spectrum above it with Geant4 simulations of the same level scheme with a varying single-particle g factor. This suggests that the structure of the slow isomer is the 7/2+[624]ν ⊗ 9/2-[734]ν two-neutron state.

A need exists for small, robust, and efficient cryocoolers operating in the 25-100 K range; however, while technological advances have enabled the development of such machines, a greater understanding of the losses affecting their performance is needed to make informed design tradeoffs. This thesis takes steps to provide this understanding by examining several losses in the context of a multi-stage cryocooler being developed by MIT and Advanced Mechanical Technologies, Inc. Based on a modular Collins-type design, this cryocooler will use computer-controlled floating piston expanders to simultaneously provide 20 and 100 Watts of cooling at 25 and 100 K, respectively. The contributions in this thesis can be divided into two broad categories. The first is concerned with the systems-level efficiency of the cryocooler, and addresses a significant inefficiency caused by an inherent cooler-to-load temperature mismatch. By using an alternative cryocooler configuration with multiple expanders in series, the overall efficiency may be increased by an estimated 24%. A simple memorizable heuristic was also found to estimate the magnitude of the mismatch loss in a given stage of the cryocooler: the fractional increase in operating power is approximately the base-10 logarithm of the pressure ratio divided by twice the number of series expanders, assuming a monatomic working fluid. The second area of research focused on the design of the cryocooler's unique floating piston expanders. A variety of losses affect the performance of these expanders; these range from the obvious to the obscure (e.g., the enhanced "shuttle" heat transfer that arises from reciprocating piston motion) and often favor conflicting design choices. Eleven such losses are discussed along with both existing literature and a new analysis of fluid flow and heat transfer in the piston-cylinder gap. A numerical model incorporating six of these losses was used to gain considerable insight into the design tradeoffs involved in expander design and provide preliminary support for the multi-expander designs discussed earlier. The simulations also challenged a previous design guideline for the piston's stroke length and, unexpectedly, revealed that imperfect expansion and compression can yield a net increase in expander efficiency due to the importance of shuttle heat transfer.

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Chemistry, 2006.Includes bibliographical references.
Oxygen is observed to adsorb molecularly on 0.13 - 0.27 ML Au/Ni(1 111) surface alloys at 77 K, in stark contrast to dissociative adsorption on Ni and no adsorption on Au surfaces. Molecular 02 adsorbates on the Au/Ni(111) surface alloy are identified by their 0=0 vibrational modes at 790, 850 and 950 cm-', measured by electron energy loss spectroscopy. Possible Ni adsorption sites for the three types of molecularly adsorbed 02 are proposed. The dramatic change in Ni reactivity occurs within a narrow Au coverage range around 0.13 ML Au and arises from poorer overlap between the Ni d-band and the 02 LUMO as the Ni d-band shifts to lower energy with increasing Au content of the Au/Ni surface alloy. The amount of molecular adsorption as a function of Au coverage cannot be described by an analytical or simulated model based on Au atom proximity to Ni sites, suggesting the role of cooperative effects in 02 stabilization. Adsorbed molecular 02 dissociates between 110 to 150 K. No oxygen desorbs. At Au coverages greater than 0.27 ML, the energy of the Ni d-band is shifted sufficiently low to destabilize oxygen adsorption.
(cont.) Carbon monoxide is catalytically oxidized on the Au/Ni(111) surface alloy at 70 and 77 K via a Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism. Molecularly adsorbed 02 is identified as the reactant with adsorbed CO. The reaction probability at 77 K is 0.4. Atomically adsorbed O and CO do not react at 77 or 300 K. Between 108 and 125 K, CO reacts with either atomic O adsorbed on Au atoms or with molecularly adsorbed 02. Between 125-150 K, CO2 production coincides with 02 dissociation, suggesting a "hot atom" mechanism. The reactive potential energy surfaces likely have a late transition state. This work demonstrates that the nanoscale size of Au clusters and its associated quantum size effect are not the necessary feature that enables Au-catalyzed low temperature CO oxidation. Rather, this work strongly suggests that an adsorbed 02 species similarly stabilized at the perimeter of Au nanoparticles is the critical reactant in supported oxide systems.

Full textAbstract:
The Swedish Textile industry has since the beginning of the 70-ties moved their production to countries with cheap labour further and further away. The production in the Baltic countries and Asia has become reality for many Swedish manufacturing companies. With today’s technology the communication with remote countries has ceased to be a problem. The difficulties have instead turned out to be more focused on transportation of goods and just in time deliveries to Sweden. In cooperation with Fristads AB we have made a study of Fristads AB´s flow of merchandise and their surrounding logistics. Our focus has mainly been on the production in Vietnam.The purpose with our study has been to clarify which important parts Fristads AB must include in their flow of materials and choices of suppliers, to be able to create an even more efficient supply chain. An effectiveness that will make Fristads AB maintain their leading position on the market. Fristads AB`s expressed ambition was that their producer in Vietnam would take over the responsible for purchase and stock keeping of the accessories.The scientific approach of the study has mainly been qualitative and we have performed several interviews with key figures within Fristads AB. We have also carried out a field study at Fristads AB’s warehouse of raw materials and productions unit at Jurkalnes in Riga, Latvia.In our theoretic frame of references we have chosen theories of Arjan J. Van Weele, Michael Porter, Ralf Blomqvist, Stig-Arne Mattsson and Peter Kraljic. The different theories discuss business logistics, effectiveness in supply chains, chain of values and strategies of choosing suppliers.1We rather quickly realized the complexity of the company and the ways they handled their raw materials. This partly because Fristads AB has many different articles, but also because they are a member of a larger organisation where many decision are made centrally. During our study we kept coming back to the fact that the absence of an integrated business system caused unnecessary redundant work of many documents. In our analysing part we compare our empiric material with our theoretic frame of reference.Our conclusions and recommendations to Fristads AB were that they should develop an even closer cooperation with their suppliers and producers, to maintain their strong position at the market. Further more we found out that an integrated business system, where all involved parties are integrated, are necessary for Fristads AB to create an effective supply chain.Program: Textilekonomutbildningen

Full textAbstract:
Climate models are the primary tools used for understanding past climate variations and for future projections. The atmospheric radiation is the key component of these models. Accurate modeling of atmosphere necessitates reliable evaluation of the medium radiative properties and accurate solution of the radiative transfer equation in conjunction with the time-dependent multi-dimensional governing equations of atmospheric models. Due to difficulty in solving the equations of atmospheric and radiation models simultaneously, radiation equations have been solved when input data such as concentration, temperature etc. were made available upon solution of equations of atmospheric models. Generally, time step of conservation equations are 10-30 minutes but radiative transfer equation is called only once every 1-3 hours. However, there is inaccuracy due to the fixed radiation fluxes over the intervening time steps. To overcome this problem, the equations of atmospheric and radiation models have to be solved simultaneously and the solution methods have to be compatible. For this purpose, a radiative-convective model with radiation model based on method of lines (MOL) solution of discrete ordinate method (DOM) with wide band correlated-k (WBCK) was developed. To achieve this objective, a previously developed MOL solution of DOM with WBCK model was adapted to 1-D longwave clear sky atmosphere and its predictive accuracy and computational efficiency was examined on the test problem by using benchmark solution obtained from Line-by-line Radiative Transfer Model (LBLRTM). The radiation code was then coupled with radiative-convective model and the predictive accuracy of this model was examined for several coupling intervals. Comparisons reveal that as coupling interval increases, although the computation time of the model decreases, the predicted temperature profiles diverge from the one obtained when equations of radiative-convective model and the radiation model are solved simultaneously and percentage relative error in temperature increases an order of magnitude when coupling time between radiative-convective model and the radiation model increases from 2 to 10 hours. Therefore, it can be concluded that the equations of the radiation model have to be solved simultaneously with the equations of the climate model.
Overall evaluation of the performance of the radiation model used in this study points out that it provides accurate and computationally efficient solutions and can be used with confidence in conjunction with the climate models for simultaneous solution of governing equations with radiation transfer equation.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses the calibration and testing of the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education's (ORISE) Holdup Measurement System 4 (HMS4) for use in quantifying U-235 holdup contained within the Process Gas Piping (PGP) of the K-25 Building. In addition to the calibration and testing performed the feasibility of measuring U-238 as a surrogate for U-235 quantification was conducted. A Performance Testing and Validation Plan (PTVP) was developed for confirming the calibration of the system and collecting test data to qualify the HMS4 system for the intended application (ORISE 2009). Tests performed were in accordance with the PTVP and the results were documented in the Performance Testing and Validation Report (PTVR). In turn, the results have been examined to verify that the HMS4 system functions properly and can be used to reliably measure the residual U-235 in pipes. Measurement parameters such as the Lower Level of Detection (LLD), the Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA), and the Total Measurement Uncertainty (TMU) have been determined and reported. To support decommissioning activities, a rapid reliable radiation detection system is needed to assess the amount of residual U-235 within the PGP of the K-25 Building in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The HMS4 system has been selected to make the required measurements. Verification measurements are considered necessary to assess the reliability and adequacy of the PGP characterization results to ensure criticality incredibility. The purpose of this document is to evaluate the characteristics of the HMS4 system regarding its applicability for use on the east side of K-25. Additionally, to define the level of confidence that should be associated with each HMS4 measurement.

Since the ancient times, the meaning of life is an important topic which has been continuously discussed. Its importance comes from the inquiry into why sentient beings should live, which is a core question of life. As long as there is life, this question will not go away. Concerning about the meaning of life, quite a lot of articles lack strict examination of the concept of “meaning” and what the concept of “meaning” really asks. As a consequence, many discussions mix up the concept of meaning with other concepts such as “value” or “achievement.” In this thesis, through reflecting on the purpose of this very question, we can ascertain what meaning is asking. In order to understand our life and want to know how to guide our future life, the issue of the meaning of life is raised. So the concept of “meaning” is defined as follows: deconstructing things and abstracting the factors, making these factors connected with the world, and consciously adding the elements into future. That is to say, by this cognitive process, meaning shows forth. Through reflecting on the deeds we did and encountering our life in this way, we can understand the present life and also know how to lead our future life. However, the living world has operating mechanisms, so people cannot think just by their imagination. Therefore, what is the meaning of life will not become some sort of relativism. Buddhism has a complete worldview through the subtle observations indicating that everything emerges in the world is in the process of impermanence and is driven by causes and conditions. If ordinary people do not reflect on life this way, they may mislead their life goal and use the wrong method to achieve their goal. So the efforts will be washed away by the impermanent flow and continuous reincarnation. In this vein, the meaning of life only remains suffering. As distinct from ordinary meaning of life, Buddhism provides two other life paths. The first one is the path to liberation, which understands the reality of living world as empty of its own being. Through meditation and practices, a practitioner of the path to liberation may transform life into peace and quietude, and the meaning of life becomes peace and quietude. The other one is the path to Supreme Enlightenment, along which practicers penetrate the world through observing related causes and conditions. They transform endless lifetime into endless practices, and achieve perfection. Through this way of spiritual cultivation, the meaning of life consists in practices and liberating sentient beings.
