17. From the migrations of herders and farmers to the colonial era and the modern-day : Genetic inferences on African demographic history
Sammanfattning : Africa is the birthplace of the human species and home to great linguistic, cultural, and genetic diversity. Despite this, the genetics of the peoples of the continent remains understudied. In this thesis, I apply population genetic approaches, to contribute to the knowledge of human demographic history in Africa. LÄS MER
18. Advancements in Lithium-Based Batteries : Unraveling and Mitigating Performance-Limiting Phenomena in Negative Electrodes
Sammanfattning : The development of lithium-based batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries, has changed our daily lives significantly. The technologies first enabled by lithium-based batteries are now in turn creating a demand for better lithium-based batteries with higher energy densities and longer cycling lifetimes. LÄS MER
19. Modelling of muscular force induced by non-isometric contraction
Sammanfattning : The main objective of the study was to investigate and simulate skeletal muscleforce production during and after isometric contractions, active muscle lengtheningand active muscle shortening. The motivation behind this work was to improve thedominant model of muscle force generation based on the theories of Hill from 1938. LÄS MER
