2. 1. Distributed Stochastic Programming with Applications to Large-Scale Hydropower Operations

   Author : Martin Biel; Mikael Johansson; Lennart Söder; David Woodruff; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stochastic programming; distributed; algorithms; large-scale; optimization; hydropower; software; julia language; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Stochastic programming is a subfield of mathematical programming concerned with optimization problems subjected to uncertainty. Many engineering problems with random elements can be accurately modeled as a stochastic program. In particular, decision problems associated with hydropower operations motivate the application of stochastic programming. READ MORE

5. 3. Mechanical behaviour of adhesive layers : experimental methods, cohesive laws, and fracture mechanics

   Author : Anders Biel; Kristofer Gamstedt; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; experimental method; adhesive layer; cohesive law; fracture; fracture energy; energy release rate; peel; shear; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Teknik; Technology;

   Abstract : Adhesive joining is today viewed as one of the key technologies to achieve decreased emissions in the automobile industry. To decrease weight, optimal material selection often results in different materials for different parts. This leads to the necessity to join mixed material. Here, the use of adhesives is the most promising joining technology. READ MORE

6. 4. Hope and worry : exploring young people's values, emotions, and behavior regarding global environmental problems

   Author : Maria Ojala; Håkan Stattin; Birgitta Höijer; Anders Biel; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Psykologi; Psykologi; Psychology;

   Abstract : This dissertation explores young people’s engagement concerning global environmental problems. To be able to reverse these problems, it is vital to involve the public in the strivings for a sustainable society. However, environmental problems are complex, imbued with uncertainties and ambivalence. READ MORE

7. 5. Help-Seeking and Causal Attributions for Helping

   Author : Ingrid Olsson; Anders Biel; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Causal attributions; communication; consensus; directness; gender; help-seeking; household-management; indirect; prosocial-behavior; self-serving; sex-differences; spouses; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates help-seeking and effects of help-seeking on causal attributions for helping (i.e., what people believe caused help or lack of help). Additionally, it examines self-serving and other-serving attributions (i. READ MORE
