Enabling Low-Emmision LNG Systems - Fundamentals for Multilevel Modelling, 2014
The KNP-project "Enabling Low-Emmision LNG Systems - Fundamentals for Multilevel Modelling" aimed to produce new knowlege on the liquidation of natural gas (LNG) and other lowtemperature processes. The activities were connected to three primary areas: (1) fundamental understanding of two phase flow phenomenon in LNG heat exchangers, (2) analysing LNG heat exchange and (3)...
Detrtial Zircon as a Tool in Stratigraphic Correlation and Sedimentary Provenance Analysis, 2008
From detailed analytical studies of detrital grains of the mineral zircon (ZrSiO4) in clastic sediments, it is possible to obtain unique information on the age, composition and petrogenesis of the rock(s) in which the zircons formed (the protosource).
