  2. 1. Prop profiles of compatible Poisson and Nijenhuis structures

    Author : Henrik Strohmayer; Sergei Merkulov; Gilles Halbout; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Koszul duality; resolutions; props; operads; compatible structures; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : A prop profile of a differential geometric structure is a minimal resolution of an algebraic prop such that representations of this resolution are in one-to-one correspondence with structures of the given type. We begin this thesis with a detailed account of the algebraic tools necessary to construct prop profiles; we treat operads and props, and resolutions of these through Koszul duality. READ MORE

    Abstract : The main theme of this thesis is higher algebraic structures that come from operads and props.The first chapter is an introduction to the mathematical framework needed for the content of this thesis. The chapter does not contain any new results. READ MORE

  5. 3. Capturing change : The practice of Malian photography, 1930s-1990s

    Author : Tanya Elder; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; African photography; situated practice; bricoleur; indigenous technology; assimilation and adaptation; media technology; Mali; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Abstract : This study follows the evolution of three distinct photographic practices in Mali. It focuses on indigenous photographers in the towns of Segou, Mopti and Kayes. The first practice beginning in the 1930's, is studio photography. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis critically reflects on co-operative design workshops that I have conducted. The basic method used in these workshops draws on the participants’ embodied knowing. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of prefabricated timber-concrete composite floors

    Author : Elzbieta Lukaszewska; Hans-Joachim Blass; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Abstract : Timber-concrete composite structures were originally developed for bridges and upgrading of existing timber floors, but finds today new applications in multi-storey buildings. Most of the research performed to date has been focused on systems where "wet" concrete is cast on top of timber beams with mounted connectors. READ MORE
