2. Twisting and Gluing : On Topological Field Theories, Sigma Models and Vertex Algebras
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two parts, which can be read separately. In the first part we study aspects of topological field theories. We show how to topologically twist three-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory using a contact structure on the underlying manifold. LÄS MER
3. Moisture Transport and Moisture-Induced Distortions in Timber - an Experimental and Numerical Study
Sammanfattning : Timber products subjected to climatic variations commonly display moisture-induced distortions that can lead to serious problems for end-users. The aim of the thesis, which consists of an extended summary and six appended papers, was to investigate the potential of using the gluing technique suggested here for dealing with problems of moisture-induced distortions and developing the heat and mass transfer models which such distortion analyses require.

4. Adhesion to machined and laser ablated wood surfaces
Sammanfattning : This thesis is a contribution to the R&D-program ValueActivation at KTH,Division of Wood Technology and Processingand containsfive papers related to the evaluation and development ofmachining techniques (mechanical and irradiation treatments)whereby weak boundaries at the wood surfaces in the form of(mechanical) weak boundary layers and (micro) cracks due tomechanical treatment can be avoided.The first paper describes the development of a methodusing a UV laserto study the mechanically weakenedboundaries.

5. Capacities, Poincaré inequalities and gluing metric spaces
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introduction, and one research paper with results related to potential theory both in the classical Euclidean setting, as well as in quite general metric spaces.The introduction contains a theoretical and historical background of some basic concepts, and their more modern generalisations to metric spaces developed in the last 30 years.
