11. Modelling the integration of Additive Manufacturing technologies in design for space components
Sammanfattning : Products for space applications are traditionally costly and produced in small batches. Moreover, they must be able to withstand extreme environments and meet tough requirements when in operation, as the ability to maintain and repair them is limited. LÄS MER
12. Images of Work and Love : The Dynamics of Economy and Emotions on the Big Screen in Sweden and Mexico 1930–1955

13. Drawing a Livelihoodscape from the Slum : Towards a spatial understanding of gendered livelihoods in Zambia
Sammanfattning : The overarching aim of the thesis was to draw a livelihoodscape from the slum.

14. Modeling the Potential for Carbon Removal in Agriculture: Integrating Farmer Perspectives
Sammanfattning : The overarching aim of this thesis is to provide insights into the dynamic processes governing SOC stocks and to identify viable paths for agricultural systems to contribute to climate change mitigation. By integrating current scientific knowledge of carbon sequestration in agriculture with feasible agricultural applications, this work proposes local realistic strategies for enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) and presents a quantitative assessment of their potential for CO2 removal.
