1. 1. Mathematical modelling approach to collective decision-making

   Författare :Natalia Zabzina; Denis Gaidashev; Torbjörn Lundh; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :collective behaviour; collective decision-making; communication mechanisms; positive feedback; mathematical modelling; bifurcation phenomena; steady state solutions; symmetry breaking; symmetry restoring; diffusion-limited aggregation; fractal dimension;

   Sammanfattning : In everyday situations individuals make decisions. For example, a tourist usually chooses a crowded or recommended restaurant to have dinner. Perhaps it is an individual decision, but the observed pattern of decision-making is a collective phenomenon. LÄS MER

3. 2. Human Behaviour in Social-Ecological Systems : Insights from economic experiments and agent-based modelling

   Sammanfattning : Progress towards sustainability requires changes in our individual and collective behaviour. Yet, our fundamental understanding of behaviour in relation to environmental change remains severely limited. LÄS MER

4. 3. Collective Collapse and Performance Contagion in Basketball

   Författare :Simon Granér; Institutionen för psykologi; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; team momentum; performance contagion; team performance; Collective collapse;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, collective collapse in basketball is investigated. Although experienced by most team sport players, the phenomenon still puzzles the world of sports. Collective collapse is described as a sudden decrease in performance quality by a sport team, often with a devastating effect on the game outcome. LÄS MER

5. 4. Modelling collective movement and transport network formation in living systems

   Författare :Arianna Bottinelli; David Sumpter; Renaud Lambiotte; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; animal collective behaviour; transport networks; crowd dynamics; complex systems; ants; fish; Tillämpad matematik och statistik; Applied Mathematics and Statistics;

   Sammanfattning : The emergence of collective patterns from repeated local interactions between individuals is a common feature to most living systems, spanning a variety of scales from cells to animals and humans. Subjects of this thesis are two aspects of emergent complexity in living systems: collective movement and transport network formation. LÄS MER

7. 5. Streetlife in Late Victorian London : The Constable and the Crowd

   Författare :Peter Andersson; Historia; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; London; Victorian London; streetlife; nineteenth century; urbanism; urban history; policing; police constable; performativity; everyday life; behaviour; interaction; traffic; dress; manners; class; crowd;

   Sammanfattning : This study examines the streetlife of London at the end of the nineteenth century from the perspective of behaviour and practice. In reaction to the large number of works on the Victorian city based on a study of literary sources, this thesis takes the approach of analysing social interaction in the street. LÄS MER
