12. Defects in E-PBF Ti-6Al-4V and their Effect on Fatigue Behaviour : Characteristics, Distribution and Impact on Life
Sammanfattning : Layer by layer manufacturing (additive manufacturing, AM) of metals is emerging as an alternative to conventional subtractive manufacturing with the goal of enabling near net-shape production of complex part geometries with reduced material waste and shorter lead times. Recently this field has experienced rapid growth through industrial adaptation but has simultaneously encountered challenges. LÄS MER
13. Health Care Utilization among Young Adults in Primary and Emergency Health Care : The Need for Support, the Capacity to Support, and the Communication in between

Problems with accessibility in earlier research have been associated with non-urgent complaints, especially at emergency departments (EDs). LÄS MER
14. Pressure-Induced Amorphization and Distinct Amorphous States of Clathrate Hydrates
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes a study on the pressure-induced amorphization (PIA) and structures of amorphous states of clathrate hydrates (CHs).PIA involves the transition of a crystalline material into an amorphous solid in response of mechanical compression at temperatures well below the melting point.
