16. Interaction of Hurricanes and Natural Coastal Features: Implications for Storm Damage Reduction
Sammanfattning : It is generally acknowledged that wetlands and barrier islands can reduce surge and waves. However, while a general qualitative understanding of these interactions is available in the scientific literature, quantification of these interactions is lacking and has previously been based on limited data of relatively poor quality.

17. Multiphase continuum modeling of wood : A hybrid mixture theory approach
Sammanfattning : Wood has been used as a construction material for a very long time. The development of efficient industrial production processes of wood has expanded the use of the material with the introduction of new products, such as engineered wood products. LÄS MER
18. Development of a Morphology-based Analysis Framework for Asphalt Pavements
Sammanfattning : The morphology of asphalt mixtures plays a vital role in their properties and behaviour. The work in this thesis is aimed at developing a fundamental understanding of the effect of the asphalt morphology on the strength properties and deformation mechanisms for development of morphology-based analysis framework for long-term response prediction.

19. Improving the therapeutic ratio of stereotactic radiosurgery and radiotherapy
Sammanfattning : New methods of high dose delivery, such as intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), hadron therapy, tomotherapy, etc., all make use of a few large fractions. LÄS MER
20. Enhanced Energy Efficiency and Preservation of Historic Buildings : Methods and Tools for Modeling
Sammanfattning : As the environmental impacts of the energy usage of the world today becomes more and more evident, enhancement of energy performance of the already existing building stock becomes more urgent. Buildings belonging to the cultural heritage are often the ones that are most difficult to deal with in this context. LÄS MER
