1. A Theory of Parametric Polymorphism and an Application
Sammanfattning : This thesis revisits the well-known notion of parametric polymorphismin the light of modern developments in type-theory. Additionally,applications of parametric polymorphism are also presented.The first part of the thesis presents a theoretical investigation ofthe semantics of parametric polymorphism of and within type-theorieswith dependent types.

2. Software Engineering using Typed Functional Programming
Sammanfattning : This thesis makes three distinct contributions to software engineering, usingtyped functional programming.First, we present a schema to reduce polymorphic properties to an equivalentmonomorphic property, for the purpose of testing. Our proof uses parametricity andproperties of initial algebras. LÄS MER
3. Essays on welfare and debt : From impact evaluation in Kenya to Canadian housing markets
Sammanfattning : This thesis is comprised of two independent essays on the topics of impact evaluation, and one essay on the housing wealth-effect. The essays address key questions on welfare and spending decisions made by households when subject to government assistance programs and increases in housing prices. LÄS MER
4. Mechanism-based flow stress model for Ti-6Al-4V : applicable for simulation of additive manufacturing and machining
Sammanfattning : Ti-6Al-4V has remarkable properties such as high specific mechanical properties (viz. stiffness, strength, toughness, fatigue resistance), corrosion resistance, biocompatibility etc. These properties make it attractive for applications in aerospace, chemical industry, energy production, surgical implants, etc. LÄS MER
5. Correlations of Higher Order in Networks of Spiking Neurons
Sammanfattning : The topic of this dissertation is the study of the emergence of higher-order correlations in recurrentlyconnected populations of brain cells.Neurons have been experimentally shown to form vast networks in the brain. LÄS MER
