21. Plastic Shrinkage Cracking In Concrete : Mitigation and Modelling
Sammanfattning : Early-age (up to 24 hours after casting) cracking may become problematic in any concrete structure. It can have a negative influence on the aesthetics of the concrete structure, as well as decreasing the durability and serviceability by facilitating the ingress of harmful materials into the concrete bulk.

22. Microstructure of a cubic boron nitride tool material and its degradation during hard turning operations
Sammanfattning : Abstract. Polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) materials are widely used in turning operations of hardened steels due to their beneficial mechanical properties like maintained high hardness at elevated temperatures, adequate toughness and for being more chemically stable towards iron compared to diamond at temperatures typical for turning operations.

23. Cathodic arc deposition process
Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to expand the knowledge of fundamental mechanisms that govern the cathodic arc process. The first part of this thesis explores and explains the correlations between a rather unexplored process parameter (i.e. cathode microstructure) and the microstructure of the coatings. LÄS MER
24. Morphological and chemical leaf traits of tropical montane tree species and their responses to warming
Sammanfattning : Leaf morphological and chemical traits of tropical trees vary along climate gradients, but it is currently unclear how they will respond to a rapidly warming climate and how this will vary among species. Considering this, tropical trees native to East and Central Africa were investigated in three complementary studies in Rwanda. LÄS MER
25. Growth and Characterization of Amorphous TiAlSiN and HfAlSiN Thin Films
Sammanfattning : This Thesis explores amorphous transition metal nitrides for cutting tool applications. The aim is to extend the knowledge on amorphous nitride thin lms, to describe the growth process, and to explore ways of characterizing these novel complex materials. LÄS MER
