11. Confronting the ecology of crisis : The interlinked roles of ecosystem-based adaptation and empowerment
Sammanfattning : Nature-based solutions (NBS) focus on the material functioning of ecosystems as part of a transformative response to societal challenges. NBS represent a growing response to climate change with a range of interventions emerging across the world to address the causes and effects of climate change. LÄS MER
12. Egypt Ignited : How Steam Power Arrived on the Nile and Integrated Egypt into Industrial Capitalism (1820s-76)
Sammanfattning : How did fossil-fuelled technology find its way to Egypt on its way to global dominance? This thesis presents a socioecological history of energy technologies in agrarian production in pre-colonial Egypt (1820s – 76). It situates them in the nineteenth century, understood as the beginning of the epoch of the Capitalocene; and in Egypt’s case, this is simultaneously part of the rise of Britain’s fossil empire.

13. Power System Inertia Estimation and Frequency Response Assessment
Sammanfattning : Power plant emissions constitute a major source of environmental pollution. This renders the gradual replacement of such power plants by renewable energy sources imperative. Changes in the quota between conventional generation and renewable energy sources introduce challenges that the modern power systems have to encounter. LÄS MER
14. Improvements in High-Coverage and Low-Power LBIST
Sammanfattning : Testing cost is one of the major contributors to the manufacturing cost of integrated circuits. Logic Built-In Self Test (LBIST) offers test cost reduction in terms of using smaller and cheaper ATE, test data volume reduction due to on-chip test pattern generation, test time reduction due to at-speed test pattern application.

15. Biomarkers of ionising radiation relevant to carcinogenesis : Dose, dose rate and LET dependency of the responses
Sammanfattning : A better understanding of the relationship between ionising radiation (IR) dose, dose rate and radiation quality, and the risk of stochastic effects would improve risk extrapolation from atomic bomb survivors’ data. Owing to insufficient statistical power of epidemiological studies to detect excess incidence of cancer following low doses of IR delivered at low dose rates (LDLDR), as typically encountered in most common human exposure scenarios, radiobiological experiments are fundamental to describe the biological effectiveness of LDLDR and to define the underlying molecular mechanisms.
