  1. 1. Thick Concepts in Practice : Normative Aspects of Risk and Safety

    Författare :Niklas Möller; Sven Ove Hansson; Tim Lewens; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; thick concepts; non-naturalism; open question argument; risk analysis; safety; epistemic uncertainty; values in risk assessment; safety engineering; Philosophy subjects; Filosofiämnen;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis aims at analyzing the concepts of risk and safety as well as the class of concepts to which they belong, thick concepts, focusing in particular on the normative aspects involved. Essay I analyzes thick concepts, i.e. concepts such as cruelty and kindness that seem to combine descriptive and evaluative features. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Paria : Brottslingen och normaliseringen av människan i Strindbergs, Hanssons och Geijerstams författarskap

    Författare :Gustaf Marcus; Martin Kylhammar; Bengt Erik Eriksson; Sylvain Briens; Arne Melberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; August Strindberg; Ola Hansson; Gustaf af Geijerstam; the criminal; crime in literature; abnormality; deviance; normalization; genius; decadence; fin-de-siecle; governmentality; surveillance; photography in literature; thick description; Michel Foucault; August Strindberg; Ola Hansson; Gustaf af Geijerstam; brott i litteraturen; brottslingar; abnormitet; awikelse; normalisering; geniet; dekadens; fin-de-siecle; governmentalitet; övervakning; fotografi i litteraturen; tät beskrivning; Michel Foucault;

    Sammanfattning : Den här studien handlar om gestaltningar av brottslingar och den större kulturella frågan om normaliseringen av människan sedd genom tre svenska författarskap från sekelskiftet 1900: August Strindberg, Ola Hansson och Gustaf af Geijerstam. Frågan om brottslingens identitet blev aktuell vid den här tiden. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Vertical High-Voltage Transistors on Thick Silicon-on-Insulator

    Författare :Ulrich Heinle; Gehan Amaratunga; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; SOI; vertical DMOS; trench isolation; power electronics; integration; on-resistance; capacitive coupling; self-heating; switching; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik; Elektronik; Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : More and more electronic products, like battery chargers and power supplies, as well as applications in telecommunications and automotive electronics are based on System-on-Chip solutions, where signal processing and power devices are integrated on the same chip. The integration of different functional units offers many advantages in terms of reliability, reduced power consumption, weight and space reduction, leading to products with better performance at a hopefully lower price.

  4. 4. Utilization of Low Voltage D-T Neutron Generators in Neutron Physics Studies

    Författare :Somsorn Singkarat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; D-T neutron generator; double-differential cross-section DDX ; n-1H scattering; directional neutron detector; time-of-flight method; natural iron; scintillation fibers; neutron energy converter;

    Sammanfattning : In a small nuclear laboratory of a developing country a low voltage D-T neutron generator can be a very useful scientific apparatus. Such machines have been used successfully for more than 40 years in teaching and scientific research. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Theoretical studies of collective electronic excitations in low-dimensional structures

    Författare :Zhe Yuan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; linear atomic chains; hydrogen storage; nanodisks; dielectric response; surface plasmon resonances; electron gas model; electronic excitation; metallic thin films; time-dependent density functional theory;

    Sammanfattning : During the past decade, nanoplasmonics and nanophotonicshas emerged as a new branch of nanosciences with many novelapplications. Central in this development is the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) tunable by the sizes and shapes at nanometer scale. LÄS MER
