  1. 1. Nonlinear Acoustics Applied to NonDestructive Testing

    Author : Kristian Haller; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nonlinear acoustics; nondestructive testing; activation density; slow dynamics; resonance frequency; nonlinear wave modulation spectroscopy; harmonic generation; trapped modes; open resonator; sweep rate;

    Abstract : Sensitive nonlinear acoustic methods are suitable for material characterization. This thesis describes three nonlinear acoustic methods that are proven useful for detection of defects like cracks and delaminations in solids. READ MORE

  2. 2. Dynamic analyses of structures with applied rubber

    Author : Magnus Alvelid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Viscoelasticity; Series expansion; Finite; Fractional calculus; Optimization;

    Abstract : The aim with the present thesis has been to develop efficient, practical and accuratemethods in order to model rubber in dynamic analyses, with emphasis on passive constrainedlayer damping materials. A fractional order viscoelastic constitutive model ismapped onto experimental data from a measurement standard using a vibrating beamtechnique. READ MORE

  3. 3. When Cheap is Good : Cost-Effective Parent and Teacher Interventions for Children with Externalizing Behavior Problems

    Author : Martin Forster; Lennart Melin; Knut Sundell; Terje Ogden; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Applied psychology; Tillämpad psykologi; Clinical Psychology; Klinisk psykologi;

    Abstract : There is strong empirical support for behavioral parent training (BPT) as an intervention for children with externalizing behavior problems (EBP). However, there is a lack of studies that have investigated the effectiveness of BPT in routine care. Furthermore, most families in need of service do not gain access to it. READ MORE

  4. 4. Gendered experiences of work environment : A study of stress and ambiguity among dental students in Sweden

    Author : Ingrid Schéle; Leif Hedman; Anne Hammarström; Eva Bejerot; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; dental students; Swedish dental education; work and organisational theories; gender power relations; ambiguity; perceived stress; satisfaction; grounded theory; content analysis; SEM; cluster analysis; tandläkarstudenter; svensk tandläkarutbildning; arbets- och organisations teorier; genus och makt relationer; ambiguitet; upplevd stress; nöjdhet; grundad teori; innehållsanalys; SEM; kluster analys; Applied psychology; Tillämpad psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : This thesis explores how dental students experience their education. We aim to generate ways to understand which elements relate to the students’ experience based on current theories and models regarding the quality of working life and gender (and) power relations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Outcome in psychiatric outpatient services

    Author : Per Söderberg; Stefan Tungström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; reliability; validity; outcome; effectiveness; clinical significanse; GAF scale; DSM-IV; outpatients; psychiatry; dose response; services; Applied psychology; Tillämpad psykologi; Psychiatry; Psykiatri;

    Abstract : The general aim of the studies presented in this thesis is to investigate the possibility of using clinical data to measure outcomes in psychiatric outpatient services. The specific aims are to investigate whether routine clinical assessments and ratings are reliable and have adequate validity, and then to use these data to calculate treatment outcomes and explore factors that affect these outcomes.
