1. On computational homogenization of gradient crystal inelasticity
Sammanfattning : Crystal inelasticity is the main modeling technique employed to study the mechanical behavior of polycrystalline metallic materials. This class of models has the capability to represent micromechanical phenomena such as plastic slip, grain boundary interactions, and dislocation pile-up. LÄS MER
2. The architecture of the aging brain : functional reorganization, structural changes, and the role of dopamine receptors
Sammanfattning : Aging is associated with reorganization of functional brain architecture, potentially leading tocognitive decline in older age. However, the mechanisms responsible for alterations in functionalbrain architecture remain poorly understood. LÄS MER
3. Thermal adaptation along a latitudinal gradient in damselflies
Sammanfattning : Understanding how temperature affects biological systems is a central question in ecology and evolutionary biology. Anthropogenic climate change adds urgency to this topic, as the demise or success of species under climate change is expected to depend on how temperature affects important aspects of organismal performance, such as growth, development, survival and reproduction.

4. Group-Sparse Regression : With Applications in Spectral Analysis and Audio Signal Processing
Sammanfattning : This doctorate thesis focuses on sparse regression, a statistical modeling tool for selecting valuable predictors in underdetermined linear models. By imposing different constraints on the structure of the variable vector in the regression problem, one obtains estimates which have sparse supports, i.e. LÄS MER
5. Some computational aspects of Markov processes
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
