  1. 1. Socio-cultural viability of international intervention in war-torn societies : a case study of Bosnia Herzegovina

    Författare :Dzenan Sahovic; Jan Engberg; Donna M Schlagheck; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Bosnia Herzegovina; peacebuilding; war-torn societies; High Representative; cultural theory; socio-cultural viability; conditionality; Bonn powers; local ownership; Political science; Statsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation explores the ‘socio-cultural dilemma’ facing international peacebuilders in war-torn societies through a case study of the post-conflict process in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is done with the help of a typological approach of the grid-group Cultural Theory framework, which defines four social solidarities – or ideal type cultures – of individualism, egalitarianism, fatalism and hierarchy.

    Sammanfattning : Cooling demand in Europe is predicted to grow 25-50% between 2020-2050. Meanwhile, the EU aims to lower the greenhouse gas emissions from its building stock by 60%. Therefore, it is essential to find solutions that can meet the growing cooling demand with less energy and integrate renewable energy sources. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A Representative Interactive Linear Eddy Model

    Författare :Tim Lackmann; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : To further improve the efficiency and emissions profiles ofinternal combustion engines, many new combustion conceptsare currently being investigated. Examples includehomogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI), stratifiedcharge compression ignition (SCCI), lean stratified premixedcombustion, and the use of high levels of exhaust gasrecirculation (EGR) in diesel engines.

  4. 4. Parallel and Distributed Processing in the Context of Fog Computing: High Throughput Pattern Matching and Distributed Monitoring

    Författare :Charalampos Stylianopoulos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; resource-constrained devices; distributed monitoring; distributed processing; vectorization; pattern matching; high throughput; fog computing;

    Sammanfattning : With the introduction of the Internet of Things (IoT), physical objects now have cyber counterparts that create and communicate data. Extracting valuable information from that data requires timely and accurate processing, which calls for more efficient, distributed approaches. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Light-Induced Yellowing of High-Yield Pulps. The Effect of Acetylation

    Författare :Magnus Paulsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; yellowing; mechanical properties; hydroxyl groups; phenolic groups; paper; high-yield pulps; chromophores; model compounds; acetylation; inhibition;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is a contribution to the understanding of the mechanism of photoyellowing of high-yield pulps. It also gives some general information about the reactivity of different functional groups in lignin towards acetic anhydride. LÄS MER
