  1. 16. Applied Methods for Analysis of Economic Structure and Change

    Författare :Christer Anderstig; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic structure; Input-output models; Information theory; Multinomial logit; Housing choice; Spectral analysis; Urban development;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis comprises five papers and an introductory overview of applied models and methods. The papers concern interdependences and interrelations in models applied to empirical analyses of various problems related to production, consumption, location and trade. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Glass-forming ternary blends: towards stable Polymer Solar Cells

    Författare :Amaia Diaz de Zerio Mendaza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; organic photovoltaics; glass formation.; fullerenes; ternary blends; thermal stability;

    Sammanfattning : The globally increasing use of electricity goes hand in hand with climate change and the gradual depletion of fossil sources of fuel. To address these challenges renewable sources of energy are in high demand. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Aspects of Energy Resource Management

    Författare :Tomas Kåberger; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bio-energy; value; interdisciplinary; life-cycle analysis; tax-shift; resource; energy; electricity;

    Sammanfattning : Energy resource management requires input from many disciplines. The three first papers in this thesis deals with the use of physical terms in the interdisciplinary process where inputs from different disciplines are handled together. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Two Problems on Existence and Approximation Related to the Boltzmann Equation

    Författare :Vladislav Panferov; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Boltzmann equation; Povzner type models; diffuse reflection; discrete-velocity models; existence for large data; weak compactness; consistency; convergence; diffuse reflection;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, two different types of problems related to the Boltzmann equation of kinetic theory are studied. The first part is devoted to establishing consistency and convergence for discrete-velocity models of the Boltzmann equation. For a new such model, introduced by the author jointly with A. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Sequence- and structure guided engineering of proteins and enzymes for biotechnology and health applications

    Författare :Karen Schriever; Per-Olof Syrén; Elton P. Hudson; Eric A. Gaucher; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein engineering; enzymology; ancestral sequence reconstruction; antigen engineering; structural biology; terpene cyclases; enzyme thermodynamics; biocatalysis; phosphatases; allosteric regulation; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Proteins are highly diverse and sophisticated biomolecules that represent a cornerstone of biological structure and function and have been exploited in man-made applications for thousands of years. Those proteins that facilitate chemical reactions at physiologically relevant time-scales are referred to as enzymes. LÄS MER
