6. Unravelling Consistent Spin-2 Interactions
Sammanfattning : Recently, a unique formulation of a classically consistent theory of massive spin-2 fields has emerged. In this thesis I address a few of the primary questions that arise once such a theory is available. LÄS MER
7. Constraints and symmetries in theories of interacting spin-2 fields
Sammanfattning : The Hassan-Rosen bimetric theory describes two interacting spin-2 fields, one massless and one massive. In this thesis, a complete canonical analysis of this theory is performed in the metric formulation and all constraints are computed. LÄS MER
8. Regional Geoid Determination Methods for the Era of Satellite Gravimetry : Numerical Investigations Using Synthetic Earth Gravity Models
Sammanfattning : It is the purpose of this thesis to investigate different regional geoid determination methods with respect to their feasibility for use with a future GOCE satellite-only Earth Gravity Model (EGM). This includes investigations of various techniques, which involve different approximations, as well as the expected accuracy. LÄS MER
9. Geoid determination over Ethiopia with emphasis on downward continuation of gravity anomailes
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
10. Storage Stability and Phase Separation Behaviour of Polymer-Modified Bitumen : Characterization and Modelling
Sammanfattning : Polymer-modified bitumen (PMB) is a high-performance material for road construction and maintenance. But its storage stability and phase separation behaviour are still not sufficiently understood and need to be studied toward a more successful and sustainable application of PMB. LÄS MER
