Ageing and Conservation of Silk - Evaluation of Three Support Methods Using Artificiallay Aged Silk
(2015-10-19)The general aim of this thesis is to evaluate common remedial conservation support methods used in the conservation treatments of fragile silk costumes that have experienced physical damage. It is based on five papers. ... -
Ready for Prime Time, - Yes, Industrial-Grade Modelling Tools can be Used in Education
(University of Gothenburg, 2015-10-16)It has been stated that industrial-grade modelling tools are unsuit- able for teaching modelling. In this paper, we present our experience with a university course on software modelling. In the first year of the course, ... -
The Pace of Life of Juvenile Brown Trout - Inter- and Intra-individual Variation in Growth and Behaviour
(2015-10-09)The pace-of-life (POL) syndrome hypothesis is the prevailing model used for explaining the differences in how animals live their lives. The POL syndrome is a framework connecting life-history traits (traits describing the ... -
Analysing normative contracts - On the semantic gap between natural and formal languages
(2015)Normative contracts are documents written in natural language, such as English or Swedish, which describe the permissions, obligations, and prohibitions of two or more parties over a set of actions, including descriptions ... -
Ecophysiology of Polar Sea Ice Microorganisms in a Changing World
(2015-10-05)Earth’s oceans are predominantly cold, with nearly 90% of their volume having temperatures below 5 °C. Microorganisms commonly referred to as psychrophiles have adapted to the temperatures of these cold waters. The most ... -
Reasoning with Bounded Cognitive Resources
(2015-10-05)Reasoning is an essential element of intelligence. Automated reasoning in formal and symbolic systems is a major topic in computer science and artificial intelligence (AI). Programs for computer-assisted and automated ... -
OPEN LEARNING IN LIFE SCIENCES – Studies of open educational resources in animal welfare and work-based learning in food science.
(2015-10-05)The aim of this thesis is to explore ways of organising and supporting open learning in food science, food quality and animal welfare at the boundary between society, the university and other academic institutions. Two ... -
Skötsel av ekblandskogar: naturvårdsgallring och respons hos träd och buskar
(2015-09-24)Det senaste århundradet har skogsbruket intensifierats med storskaliga skogsplanteringar, speciellt gran, och brukande genom kalhyggen. Detta har inneburit en homogenisering av landskapet och många naturtyper har gått ... -
Equilibrium statistics of channel-confined DNA
(2015-09-24)This thesis is devoted to the study of DNA molecules in nanochannels. In the last ten years, a large number of studies have been conducted wherein DNA molecules were confined to channels with a width of about 100 nm. These ... -
Topics on Harmonic analysis and Multilinear Algebra
(2015-09-23)The present thesis consists of six different papers. Indeed, they treat three different research areas: function spaces, singular integrals and multilinear algebra. In paper I, a characterization of continuity of the ... -
Terahertz radiation as a pump and probe for studying low frequency vibrations in proteins
(2015-09-18)Many functionally important structural changes in proteins proceed along the direction of their lowest frequency vibrations. These vibrations correspond to picosecond collective dynamics. Establishing the fundamental ... -
Inhibition of the mevalonate pathway in C. elegans: Consequences and implications
(2015-09-15)The mevalonate pathway in human is responsible for the synthesis of cholesterol and other important biomolecules such as coenzyme Q (a component of the electron transport chain in mitochondria), dolichols (important for ... -
Ion Transport in Chloroplasts with Role in Regulation of Photosynthesis
(2015-09-14)Photosynthesis is the primary energy source of almost all ecosystems on Earth. Oxygenic photosynthesis has appeared approximately 2.4 billion years ago and has since then gradually evolved into the complex process that ... -
