  1. 1. Essays on Economic Growth

    Författare :Joakim Persson; Angel de La Fuente; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three essays on economic growth. The first two essays analyze convergence across regional economies. The third essay is a theoretical paper on sustainable development.. LÄS MER

  2. 2. From market orientation to orientation towards international marjets (OIM) of born global firms : evaluating the impact of OIM on born global firms' performance

    Författare :Rosalina Torres-Ortega; Spain Autonomous University of Barcelona; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Born global firms; market orientation; orientation towards international markets; performance; scale validation; multi-country approach; structural equation model; Företagsekonomi; Business administration;

    Sammanfattning : Although there is a considerable amount of research on market orientation, research on this concept in the context of born global firms is still lacking a precise definition and full operationalization. This research aims to investigate how the market orientation (MO) concept could be understood for a specific type of firm: the born global firm. LÄS MER

  3. 3. On Service Optimization in Community Network Micro-Clouds

    Författare :Nuno Apolonia; Leandro Navarro; Sarunas Girdzijauskas; Felix Freitag; Vladimir Vlassov; Dino Lopez; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; micro-clouds; Community Networks; cloud services; social networks; overlay networks; distributed systems; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Internet coverage in the world is still weak and local communities are required to come together and build their own network infrastructures. People collaborate for the common goal of accessing the Internet and cloud services by building Community networks (CNs).The use of Internet cloud services has grown over the last decade. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Mesoporous material systems for catalysis and drug delivery

    Författare :Aylin Atakan; Magnus Odén; Cristina Canal; Petra de Jongh; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Hybrid material systems possess multi-functional properties which make them intriguing for the materials science community since very early dates. However, it is not straightforward to produce such material systems. A smart and efficient approach is necessary to extract the desired properties of each component under the desired conditions.

  5. 5. Multiscale materials design of hard coatings for improved fracture resistance and thermal stability

    Författare :Phani Kumar Yalamanchili; Magnus Odén; Naureen Ghafoor; Emilio Jiménez-Piqué; Jon Molina; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Physical vapor deposited hard coatings comprised of cubic (c) transition metal (TM)-Al-N, and (TM)-Si-N are the current workhorse materials for a large number of metal cutting and wear resistant applications to fight against the extreme conditions of temperature and stress simultaneously. In spite of a high degree of sophistication in terms of material choice and microstructural design, a lower fracture resistance and limited thermal stability of the coatings remains a technological challenge in the field.
