  2. 11. Essays on Economic Voting, Cognitive Dissonance, and Trust

    Author : Mikael Elinder; Sören Blomquist; Henrik Jordahl; David Strömberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic voting; Voting; Regional economic conditions; Political attitudes; Cognitive dissonance; Social capital; Trust; Economic growth; Robustness; Applied econometrics; Elections; Self-interest; Election promise; Pocketbook voting; Prospective voting; Retrospective voting; Child care; Local economic conditions; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Essay 1: (with Henrik Jordahl and Panu Poutvaara) We present and test a theory of prospective and retrospective pocketbook voting. Focusing on two large reforms in Sweden, we establish a causal chain from policies to sizeable individual gains and losses and then to voting. READ MORE

  4. 12. Intermittent fasting in chickens : Physiological mechanisms and welfare implications for broiler breeders

    Author : Caroline Lindholm; Jordi Altimiras; Ian Dunn; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Broiler breeder chickens are the parent stock used to produce broiler chickens raised for human consumption and have long been caught in a welfare dilemma. The immensely successful selection of fast-growing meat-type chickens over the last 80 years has created a remarkably efficient meat-producer and given us access to cheap chicken meat but has also created health problems for the animals.

  5. 13. Relaxation dynamics of perturbed water and other H-bonded liquids

    Author : Johan Sjöström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; confinement; supercooled water; dielectric relaxation; mixtures;

    Abstract : Most liquids can be supercooled below its melting point where the dynamics dramatically slows down with decreasing temperature until the material appears solid on the experimental time scale and becomes stuck in an out-of-equilibrium configuration, a glass. Water, one of the most abundant substances on earth, is no exception. READ MORE

  6. 14. A numerical study of two-fluid models for dispersed two-phase flow

    Author : Reynir Levi Gudmundsson; Björn Sjögreen; Anders Petersson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical analysis; two-phase flow; two-fluid mode; well-posedness; numerical experiments; Numerisk analys; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : In this thesis the two-fluid (Eulerian/Eulerian) formulation for dispersed two-phase flow is considered. Closure laws are needed for this type of models. We investigate both empirically based relations, which we refer to as a nongranular model, and relations obtained from kinetic theory of dense gases, which we refer to as a granular model. READ MORE

  7. 15. Lubricating grease Experiments and modeling of wall-bounded- and free-surface flows

    Author : Jinxia Li; Arto Lehtovaara; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : Lubricating grease is commonly applied to lubricate e.g. rolling bearings, sealsand gears. Grease has some clear advantages over lubricating oil: it is a semisolidmaterial, which prevents it from flowing/ leaking out from the bearingsystem and gives it sealing properties, and it also protects the system fromcontaminants and corrosion.
