Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- DN DEBATT 15/3. Sedan industrialiseringens början har vi använt omkring fyra femtedelar av den mängd fossilt kol som får förbrännas för att vi ska klara Parisavtalet. Vi har bara en femtedel kvar och det är bråttom att kraftigt reducera utsläppen. Det har Greta Thunberg och de strejkande ungdomarna förstått. Därför stödjer vi deras krav, skriver 270 klimatforskare.

- Combustion-derived soot or black carbon (BC) in the atmosphere has a strong influence on both climate and human health. In order to propose effective mitigation strategies for BC emissions it is of importance to investigate geographical distributions and seasonal variations of BC emission sources. Here, a radiocarbon methodology is used to distinguish between fossil fuel and biomass burning sources of soot carbon (SC). SC is isolated for subsequent off-line (14)C quantification with the chemothermal oxidation method at 375 degrees C (CTO-375 method), which reflects a recalcitrant portion of the BC continuum known to minimize inadvertent inclusion of any non-pyrogenic organic matter. Monitored wind directions largely excluded impact from the Stockholm metropolitan region at the EMEP-Aspvreten rural station 70 km to the south-west. Nevertheless, the Stockholm city and the rural stations yielded similar relative source contributions with fraction biomass (f(biomass)) for fall and winter periods in the range of one-third to half. Large temporal variations in (14)C-based source apportionment was noted for both the 6 week fall and the 4 month winter observations. The f(biomass) appeared to be related to the SC concentration suggesting that periods of elevated BC levels may be caused by increased wood fuel combustion. These results for the largest metropolitan area in Scandinavia combine with other recent (14)C-based studies of combustion-derived aerosol fractions to suggest that biofuel combustion is contributing a large portion of the BC load to the northern European atmosphere.

Simulation of multiphysics problems using adaptive finite elements

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Real world applications often involve several types of physics. In practice, one often solves such multiphysics problems by using already existing single physics solvers. To satisfy an overall accuracy, it is critical to understand how accurate the individual single physics solution must be. In this paper we present a framework for a posteriori error estimation of multiphysics problems and derive an algorithm for estimating the total error. We illustrate the technique by solving a coupled flow and transport problem with application in porous media flow.

EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL ANALYSES OF A CONNECTION FOR CLT STRUCTURES

- Although building systems made of cross-laminated timber (CLT) have become common in Sweden in the past 20 years and they have developed rapidly during the same period, steps remain to be taken to simplify the assembly of such systems, especially at construction sites. Current construction methods, however, remain labour-intensive and thus show room for improvement.This paper describes a novel connection for the assembly of building elements made of CLT. Simple and inexpensive, the connection is fairly insensitive to manufacturing tolerances and enables rapid, more efficient construction than the connections for CLT structures currently used. Test results show the excellent strength and stiffness of the connection, which also allows the replacement of numerous fasteners, including nails and screws, with only a single steel rod.

Adaptive finite element solution of coupled PDE-ODE systems
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- We consider an implicit / explicit method for solving a semilinear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) coupled to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). More specifically the PDE of interest is the heat equation where the right hand side couple with the ODEs. For this system, a posteriori error estimates are derived using the method of dual-weighted residuals giving indicators useful for constructing adaptive algorithms. We distinguish the errors in time and space for the PDE and the ODEs separately and include errors due to transferring the solutions between the equations. In addition, since the ODEs in many applications are defined on a much smaller spatial scale than what can be resolved by the finite element discretization for the PDE, the error terms include possible projection errors arising when transferring the global PDE solution onto the local ODEs. Recovery errors due to passing the local ODE solutions to the PDE are also included in this analysis. The method is illustrated on a realistic problem consisting of a semilinear PDE and a set of nonlinear ODEs modeling the electrical activity in the heart. The method is computationally expensive, why an adaptive algorithm using blocks is used.

- We describe and test an adaptive algorithm for evolution problems that employs a sequence of "blocks" consisting of fixed, though non-uniform, space meshes. This approach offers the advantages of adaptive mesh refinement but with reduced overhead costs associated with load balancing, re-meshing, matrix reassembly, and the solution of adjoint problems used to estimate discretization error and the effects of mesh changes. A major issue whith a blockadaptive approach is determining block discretizations from coarse scale solution information that achieve the desired accuracy. We describe several strategies to achieve this goal using adjoint-based a posteriori error estimates and we demonstrate the behavior of the proposed algorithms as well as several technical issues in a set of examples.

A multimesh finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations based on projection methods

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The multimesh finite element method is a technique for solving partial differential equations on multiple non-matching meshes by enforcing interface conditions using Nitsche's method. Since the non-matching meshes can result in arbitrarily cut cells, additional stabilization terms are needed to obtain a stable method. In this contribution we extend the multimesh finite element method to the Navier-Stokes equations based on the incremental pressure-correction scheme. For each step in the pressure-correction scheme, we derive a multimesh finite element formulation with suitable stabilization terms. The proposed scheme is implemented for arbitrary many overlapping two dimensional domains, yielding expected spatial and temporal convergence rates for the Taylor-Green problem, and demonstrates good agreement for the drag and lift coefficients for the Turek-Schfifer benchmark (DFG benchmark 2D-3). Finally, we illustrate the capabilities of the proposed scheme by optimizing the layout of obstacles in a two dimensional channel.
