  1. 1. Sensor and Signature Modeling for Aircraft Conceptual Development

    Author : Carina Marcus; Peter Münger; Kristian Amadori; Peter Bull; Christopher Jouannet; Torleif Martin; Kelly Griendling; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The aircraft design process has several phases, the first of which is conceptual design. In this phase, models describing an aircraft concept’s properties are used to evaluate its function and identify designs that meet given requirements. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular Dynamics Studies of Low-Energy Atom Impact Phenomena on Metal Surfaces during Crystal Growth

    Author : Dragan Adamovic; Peter Münger; Thomas Michely; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular dynamics simulations; Low energy Ion irradiation; Atomistic processes; Thin film growth; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : It is a well-known fact in the materials science community that the use of low-energy atom impacts during thin film deposition is an effective tool for altering the growth behavior and for increasing the crystallinity of the films. However, the manner in which the incident atoms affect the growth kinetics and surface morphology is quite complicated and still not fully understood. READ MORE

  3. 3. Extinctions in Ecological Communities : direct and indirect effects of perturbation on biodiversity

    Author : Alva Curtsdotter; Bo Ebenman; Peter Münger; Elisa Thébault; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In the dawning of what may become Earth’s 6th mass extinction the topic of this thesis, understanding extinction processes and what determines the magnitude of species loss, has become only too relevant. The number of known extinctions (~850) during the last centuries translates to extinction rates elevated above the background rate, matching those of previous mass extinction events. READ MORE

  4. 4. Species extinctions in food webs : local and regional processes

    Author : Anna Eklöf; Bo Ebenman; Peter Münger; Marcel Holyoak; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Extinction; food web; metacommunity; dispersal; species loss; migration; habitat fragmentation; connectance; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Loss of biodiversity is one of the most severe threats to the ecosystems of the world. The major causes behind the high population and species extinction rates are anthropogenic activities such as overharvesting of natural populations, pollution, climate change and destruction and fragmentation of natural habitats.

  5. 5. Structure and Stability of Ecological Networks : The role of dynamic dimensionality and species variability in resource use

    Author : David Gilljam; Bo Ebenman; Peter Münger; José Montoya; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The main focus of this thesis is on the response of ecological communities to environmental variability and species loss. My approach is theoretical; I use mathematical models of networks where species population dynamics are described by ordinary differential equations. READ MORE
