1. The effect of nano-confinement on hydrogen uptake in metallic superlattices
Sammanfattning : The absorption of hydrogen is exothermic in vanadium whereas it is endothermic in iron and chromium. Investigations of the hydrogen uptake within Fe/V(001) and Cr/V(001) superlattices allow therefore a detailed exploration of finite size effects and the influence of boundaries on hydrogen absorption.

2. The Politics of Legal Challenges to Pornography: Canada, Sweden, and the United States
Sammanfattning : The dissertation analyzes obstacles and potential in democracies, specifically Canada, Sweden, and United States, to effectively address empirically documented harms of pornography. Legislative and judicial challenges under different democratic and legal frameworks are compared. LÄS MER
3. Characterization of Hydrogeological Media Using Electromagnetic Geophysics
Sammanfattning : Radio magnetotellurics (RMT), crosshole ground penetrating radar (GPR), and crosshole electrical resistance tomography (ERT) were applied in a range of hydrogeological applications where geophysical data could improve hydrogeological characterization. A profile of RMT data collected over highly resistive granite was used to map subhorizontal fracture zones below 300m depth, as well as a steeply dipping fracture zone, which was also observed on a coinciding seismic reflection profile.

4. Prospective and longitudinal human studies of lead and cadmium exposure and the kidney
Sammanfattning : Cadmium and lead accumulate in humans and can have toxic effects. Exposure to cadmium is well known to cause kidney damage. Cadmium binds to metallothioneins, proteins that play a role in cadmium transport. LÄS MER
5. Autonomous, yet Aligned : Challenges of Self-Leadership in Context
Sammanfattning : Följande avhandling bidrar till teorier om ledning av kunskapsarbete på mikronivå, genom att undersöka självledarskap i kunskapsarbete och organisatoriska försök att främja det på individ- och teamnivåer. Det empiriska materialet är insamlat i kontexter av innovativ mjukvaruutveckling, konsulter, och aktivitetsbaserat arbetssätt; metoden är företrädesvis djupintervjuer och tematisk analys, och i papper IV enkät och statistisk analys.
