  1. 1. The Persistence of Unemployment: Does Competition between Employed and Unemployed Job Applicants Matter?

    Author : Stefan Eriksson; Michael C. Burda; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi; nationalekonomi; Economics;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four self-contained essaysEssay 1 (with Nils Gottfries) investigates why unemployment is so persistent in Europe. We formulate an efficiency wage model with on-the-job search where wages depend on turnover and employers may use information on whether the searching worker is employed or unemployed as a hiring criterion.

  2. 2. Electronic Structure and Atomistic Spin Dynamics of Nanostructured Materials

    Author : Debora C. M. Rodrigues; Anders Bergman; Manuel Pereiro; Olle Eriksson; Helena Petrilli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : The theoretical studies of several magnetic materials are presented in this thesis. To each of them, it was investigated the electronic structure, by means of density functional theory calculations, and/or magnetization dynamics, in the context of atomistic spin dynamics (ASD).

  3. 3. Exploring magnetocaloric materials by ab-initio methods

    Author : Rafael Martinho Vieira; Heike C. Herper; Torbjörn Björkman; Olle Eriksson; Markus Gruner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetocaloric; magnetism; ab-initio;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the characterization of magnetocaloric materials from first-principles calculations, emphasizing entropy variation associated with the magnetocaloric effect. The study happens in the context of the search for new magnetocaloric materials to be applied in domestic magnetic refrigerators,  as environmentally friendly and energy-efficient alternatives to conventional vapor-compression devices.

  4. 4. An Informed System Development Approach to Tropical Cyclone Track and Intensity Forecasting

    Author : Chandan Roy; Rita Kovordanyi; Henrik Eriksson; Mattias Villani; Frank C. Lin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biologically based artificial neural networks; bi-directionally connected networks; temporal sequence learning; accurate tropical cyclone forecasting; informative warning message; ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Tropical Cyclones (TCs) inflict considerable damage to life and property every year. A major problem is that residents often hesitate to follow evacuation orders when the early warning messages are perceived as inaccurate or uninformative. READ MORE

  5. 5. Embedded real-time software using TinyTimber : reactive objects in C

    Author : Johan Eriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inbyggda system; Embedded System;

    Abstract : Embedded systems are often operating under hard real-time constraints. Such systems are naturally described as time-bound reactions to external events, a point of view made manifest in the high-level programming and systems modeling language Timber. READ MORE
