    Abstract : In the beginning of 2005, the ministry of natural resources in the Kurdistan region of Iraq dividedits territory into more than 50 oil blocks based on geological setting. These oil blocks were awardedlater to different international oil companies for oil investments based on Production SharingContracts (PSCs). READ MORE

  4. 2. Teenage Kicks – The Differential Development of Drug Use, Drunkenness, and Criminal Behaviour in Early to Mid-Adolescence

    Author : Russell Turner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drug use; Drunkenness; Alcohol intoxication; Criminal behaviour; Delinquency; Adolescence; Adolescent development; Risk behaviour; Risk factor; Prevention; Critical realism; realist method; Person-oriented method;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the development of drug use, drunkenness, and criminal behaviour in early to mid-adolescence. Its main aims are to improve knowledge about how and why these three behaviours develop and to contribute towards the development of theory that can have applications in prevention policy and practice. The thesis comprises four studies. READ MORE

  5. 3. Subjective perception and prediction model of vehicle stability under aerodynamic excitations

    Author : Arun Kumar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-vehicle interaction; prediction model; drivability; unsteady aerodynamics; Driving simulator; driver perception.; vehicle stability;

    Abstract : The current automotive era is moving towards electrified vehicle propulsion. As a result, an energy efficient vehicle design becomes one of the top priorities. From an aerodynamics point of view, the vehicle should be more streamlined for minimal aerodynamic drag. READ MORE

  6. 4. Horse stables in the 21st century : aspects of management, behaviour and health

    Author : Linda Kjellberg; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Housing horses in open barns is becoming increasingly popular, with positive effects on social interaction and free movement that can improve horse welfare. However, many horse owners are concerned that group housing may lead to more injuries, less lying time and obesity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Beam Momentum Changes due to Discharges in High-gradient Accelerator Structures

    Author : Andrea Palaia; Volker Ziemann; Bernhard Holzer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The key questions left unanswered by the Standard Model, and the recent discovery of a Standard Model-like Higgs boson, demand an extension of the research on particle physics to the TeV energy scale. The Compact Linear Collider, CLIC, is a candidate project to achieve such goal. READ MORE
