- The crystallization rate during selective laser melting (SLM) of bulk metallic glasses (BMG) is a critical factor in maintaining the material's amorphous structure. To increase the understanding of the interplay between the SLM process and the crystallization behavior of BMGs, a numerical model based on the classical nucleation theory has been developed that accounts for the rapid temperature changes associated with SLM. The model is applied to SLM of a Zr-based BMG and it is shown that the transient effects, accounted for by the model, reduce the nucleation rate by up to 15 orders of magnitude below the steady-state nucleation rate on cooling, resulting in less nuclei during the build process. The capability of the proposed modelling approach is demonstrated by comparing the resulting crystalline volume fraction to experimental findings. The agreement between model predictions and the experimental results clearly suggests that transient nucleation effects must be accounted for when considering the crystallization rate during SLM processing of BMGs.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Within several cooperative projects, KTH (Royal Institute of Technology), Ovako Steel AB, and MEFOS have investigated the desulphurisation of bearing steel during vacuum degassing. The work includes thermodynamic calculations of the slag-metal equilibrium, CFD modelling of slag-metal reactions, and plant trials. Results from the various studies are presented and discussed in this paper. Models for predicting slag properties (sulphide capacity, viscosity, and oxide activities) in liquid slags as functions of slag composition and temperature have been used for the calculation of data which have been employed in static and dynamic modelling of sulphur refining. The results from static modelling show that the method allows fast and easy evaluation of the theoretical desulphurisation conditions during degassing at Ovako Steel AB, as well as theoretical determination of the parameters that have the greatest influence on the equilibrium sulphur distribution. The conclusion from dynamic modelling is that the vacuum degassing operation can be described dynamically with the present knowledge of sulphide capacity, sulphur distribution, viscosity, and oxide activities of ladle slags if this knowledge is combined with fluid flow modelling to derive the overall kinetics. The presented model approaches have been found useful in understanding the sulphur refining process at Ovako Steel AB. The dynamic modelling concept is also believed to have potential for dynamic descriptions of other slag-metal reactions in steelmaking.

Mapping of Wind-Thrown Forests Using VHF/UHF SAR Images

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- SAR images from the Swedish airborne CARABAS-II and LORA systems have been visually analyzed over simulated wind-thrown forest at both single tree and stand level. In ideal conditions, the results show that LORA is more accurate than CARABAS-II at detecting wind-thrown trees, regardless of tree size and direction of the fallen trees relative to flight heading. Furthermore, the visible single trees in the LORA images appeared more distinct than in the CARABAS-II images, which could be explained by the high resolution in the LORA images. Based on visual interpretation, it is likely that the detection of wind-thrown forests could be improved using VHF/UHF SAR images acquired both prior to and after a storm event.

ALOS PALSAR Calibration and Validation Results from Sweden

Ingår i: IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS 2007), Barcelona, Spain, July 23-27, 2007. ; DOI: 10.1109/IGARSS.2007.4423115, s. 1589-1592

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In 2006 calibration activities for ALOS PALSAR wereconducted in Sweden. Four five-metre trihedral corner reflectorsand three smaller dihedral reflectors were deployed and operatedduring eight months. 23 PALSAR scenes were acquired over thecalibration site allowing an evaluation of the quality and temporalstability of the data. Results show that the co-polarized datahave been stable during the whole calibration period with variationsin the trihedral responses lower than 0.7 dB. The measuredresolution in azimuth was 4.4 m and in slant range 4.7 m forsingle polarization images and 9.5 m for polarimetric data. Forthe cross-polarized data large variations in the dihedral responseswere found. It is assumed that this is caused by a larger sensitivityto pointing errors. For the polarimetric data, estimation ofFaraday rotation gave values ranging from 0.1º to 3º.

Prospecting Secondary Raw Materials in the Urban Mine and mining wastes (ProSUM) - Final Report
- 2017
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Batteries, electrical and electronic equipment, vehicles and mining waste contain both significant amounts and a large variety of raw materials, ranging from base metals to plastics, as well as precious metals and critical raw materials (CRMs). The EU is reliant on imports for many of these raw materials and aims to a Circular Economy. Securing responsible sourcing of those materials as well as increasing recycling rates is a complex societal challenge, partly because of the lack of structured data on the quantities, concentrations, trends and final whereabouts in different waste flows of these secondary raw materials in the Urban Mine in Europe. Currently, data on primary and secondary raw materials are available in Europe, but scattered amongst a variety of institutions including government agencies, universities, NGOs and industry. The aim of the ProSUM project was to provide a state of the art knowledge base, using best available data in a harmonised and updateable format, which allows the recycling industry and policymakers to make more informed investment and policy decisions to increase the supply and recycling of secondary raw materials.
