1. Geometry linking the art of building and the Universe: Geometric patterns on shells and grid shells
Sammanfattning : Geometry links the art of building and the physics of space-time. Mathematical breakthroughs in geometry have led to new ways of designing our structures and our ability to visualise and describe the world, phenomena in nature and the universe. LÄS MER
2. Theoretical and computational advances in small-angle x-ray scattering tensor tomography
Sammanfattning : The relationships between microscopic and macroscopic structures is a central topic of materials physics. Small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) is a powerful experimental technique for probing and mapping variations in electron density, given by the reciprocal space map, down to the nanometer scale in two dimensions.

3. Tautological rings of Shimura varieties
Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis consists of two papers. In paper I the tautological ring of a Hilbert modular variety at an unramified prime is computed. The method of van der Geer in the case of A_{g} is extended to deal with the case of the Hilbert modular variety, which is more complicated. LÄS MER
4. Prestress and its application to shell, fabric, and cable net structures
Sammanfattning : Prestressing and shells provide means to create material-efficient and well-functioning structures, as do their combination, offering opportunities for increased material efficiency within the built environment. Prestressing introduces stresses in an object to enhance its performance, and shells include concrete shells, masonry vaults, fabric structures, cable nets, and timber or steel gridshells. LÄS MER
5. Möjligheter till lärande i matematik : Lärares problemformuleringar och dynamisk programvara
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the first Swedish empirical evidence on how teachers employ a dynamic mathematical software when teaching mathematics in upper secondary school. The study examines: a) How teachers formulate mathematical problems? b) How they use the experience the students have gained? and c) What use they make of the software’s potential? These questions are examined through classroom observations followed up by discussions with the teachers. LÄS MER
