1. 16. Environmental Technology and its Role in the Search for Urban Environmental Sustainability : The Dynamics of Adaptation

   Författare :Santiago Mejía-Dugand; Olof Hejlm; Leenard Baas; Julio Dávila; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technology Adaptation; Governance Mechanisms; Spread of Technology; Stakeholder Involvement; Proof-of-concept; Environmental Technology Suppliers; Urban Imaginaries;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to analyze the role that environmental technology plays in the solution of environmental problems in cities, and discuss models and conditions that can facilitate the processes of selection, implementation and use of environmental technologies in and by cities.The technological component is perhaps one of the most important characteristics of modern cities.

3. 17. Glass Transition Dynamics in Soft Condensed Matter

   Författare :Johan Mattsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polymer films; beta relaxation; hydrogen bond; glass transition; polymer dynamics; cooperativity; confinement; IXS; Brillouin light scattering; excess wing;

   Sammanfattning : Materials of very different character, ranging from polymers to metals can be made into glasses. The structural and dynamical properties of glass-forming materials are fundamentally different from those found in crystals. Hence, glassy materials exhibit unique characteristics, which make them suitable for a wide range of applications. LÄS MER

4. 18. Structure, Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Liquid Water : Insights from Molecular Simulations

   Författare :Kjartan Thor Wikfeldt; Lars G. M. Pettersson; Francesco Sciortino; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Liquid water; supercooled water; diffraction; structure modeling; molecular dynamics; x-ray spectroscopy; EXAFS; SAXS; Physics; Fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

   Sammanfattning : Water is a complex liquid with many unusual properties. Our understanding of its physical, chemical and biological properties is greatly advanced after a century of dedicated research but there are still many unresolved questions. LÄS MER

5. 19. The EU´s Collective Use of Force : Exploring the Factors behind its First Military Operations

   Författare :Katarina Engberg; Peter Wallensteen; Maria Strömvik; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :EU; collective security; use of force; multilateralisation of intervention; regional security provider; local actors; resource factors; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; Peace and Conflict Research; Freds- och konfliktforskning;

   Sammanfattning : The EU has since 2003 carried out six military operations.  This thesis seeks to determine the circumstances under which the EU will, or will not, undertake military operations. LÄS MER

7. 20. Molecular dynamics studied by NMR relaxation experiments. Characterization of functional dynamics in the FK506 binding protein FKBP12

   Författare :Ulrika Brath; Biofysikalisk kemi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear magnetic resonance; NMR; FK506; protein dynamics; chemical exchange; spin relaxation; FKBP12; FKBP; isotope labeling;

   Sammanfattning : The presented thesis work is concerned with the study of molecular dynamics using liquid nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Spin relaxation dispersion experiments in the rotating frame (R1ρ) are employed to provide a detailed, atomic-resolution view of protein dynamics. LÄS MER
