11. Anions and Additives for Lithium Battery Electrolytes
Sammanfattning : Based on the atomic postulate, which is now more than 2400 years old, scientists have developed very advanced tools for studying the material world. With the potential realized with modern computers, more and more sophisticated methods are available for predicting real material properties, even from simple theoretical model systems. LÄS MER
12. Discrete Kinetic Models and Conservation Laws
Sammanfattning : Classical kinetic theory of gases is based on the Boltzmann equation (BE) which describes the evolution of a system of particles undergoing collisions preserving mass, momentum and energy. Discretization methods have been developed on the idea of replacing the original BE by a finite set of nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs corresponding to the densities linked to a suitable finite set of velocities.

13. Land Matters : Agrofuels, Unequal Exchange, and Appropriation of Ecological Space
Sammanfattning : As a global society we are entering an era where land areas and land-based resources are coming to the fore once again for capital accumulation and economic growth, for the first time since the end of the 18th century when Malthus forecasted a contradiction between population growth and agricultural output. That constraint on economic growth, imposed by limited land areas, was overcome by the combination of fossil fuels (coal, oil) and appropriation of space overseas (colonialism, trade). LÄS MER
14. Advancing Models of Privacy Decision Making : Exploring the What & How of Privacy Behaviours
Sammanfattning : People's decisions do not happen in a vacuum; there are multiple factors that may affect them. There are external determinants, such as cost/benefit calculation of decision outcomes. There are also internal factors, such as attitudes, personality, emotions, age, and nationality. LÄS MER
15. Semantic Self-monitoring in Speech. Using Real-time Speech Exchange to Investigate the Use of Auditory Feedback for Self-comprehension
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates speech production and self-monitoring by using a newly constructed Real-time Speech Exchange (RSE) system. This system makes it possible to covertly manipulate the auditory feedback that participants receive of their own voice. LÄS MER
