1. 6. Extreme wave conditions and the impact on wave energy converters

   Författare :Eirini Katsidoniotaki; Malin Göteman; Vincent Neary; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; extreme waves; wave energy converters; CFD; OpenFOAM; environmental contours; focused waves; breaking waves;

   Sammanfattning : The amount of energy enclosed in ocean waves has been classified as one of the most promising renewable energy sources. Nowadays, different wave energy conversion (WEC) systems are being investigated, but only a few concepts have been operated in a sea environment. LÄS MER

3. 7. Trafikpolitik och regional omvandling : Beslutsprocesserna om isbrytningen längs Norrlandskusten 1940-1975

   Författare :Martin Eriksson; Lena Andersson-Skog; Jan Ottosson; Thomas Pettersson; Lars Magnusson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; economic history; Sweden; Norrland; ice-breaker policy; regional interest groups; institutional analysis; corporatism; concertation; policy networks; Economic history; Ekonomisk historia; ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to understand the decision-making processes concerning ice-breaking along the coast of Norrland, with the specific aim to analyse the activities of regional interest groups in the Norrland region and government agents at different administrative levels at the key stages of the decision-making processes: initiation, drafting and decision-making. The thesis also explores how institutional factors at different administrative levels affected the agents that were involved at those stages of the decision-making processes. LÄS MER

4. 8. Psychosocial aspects of living with congenital heart disease : child, family, and professional perspectives

   Författare :Anna-Lena Birkeland; Annika Rydberg; Bruno Hägglöf; Lennart Köhler; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; breaking bad news; children adolescents; congenital heart disease; communication; content analyse; coping; counselling; interprofessional team; medical education; patient relationships; paediatric cardiology; professional role; psychosocial inventory method; qualitative method; quantitative method stress; teamwork;

   Sammanfattning : Background: The vast majority of infants born with congenital heart disease (CHD) reach adulthood because of the developments in cardiology in recent decades. This thesis aims to describe the psychosocial situation of child/adolescent cardiac patients and their families, investigate the situation faced by parents and siblings initially and over time, investigate the approaches paediatric cardiologists use in encountering the family, and describe the teamwork occurring in paediatric cardiology teams (PCTs) in Sweden.

5. 9. Privacy of Sudden Events in Cyber-Physical Systems

   Författare :Rijad Alisic; Henrik Sandberg; Karl H. Johansson; Sandip Roy; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Privacy; Security; Cyber-Physical Systems; Automatic Control; Estimation; Machine Learning; Change Point Detection; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Cyberattacks against critical infrastructures has been a growing problem for the past couple of years. These infrastructures are a particularly desirable target for adversaries, due to their vital importance in society. LÄS MER

7. 10. Defects, renormalization and conformal field theory

   Författare :Alexander Söderberg Rousu; Agnese Bissi; Pedro Liendo; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; defects; boundaries; replica twist defect; conformal field theory; quantum field theory; Coleman-Weinberg mechanism; renormalization group flows; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

   Sammanfattning : Defects in quantum field theories appear in many different contexts and are of great physical interest. Among other things, defects are used to describe the Kondō effect in condensed matter, confinement in quantum chromodynamics, Rényi entropy in quantum information and cosmic strings in string theory.
