1. Towards Fully Dynamic Surface Illumination in Real-Time Rendering using Acceleration Data Structures
Abstract : The improvements in GPU hardware, including hardware-accelerated ray tracing, and the push for fully dynamic realistic-looking video games, has been driving more research in the use of ray tracing in real-time applications. The work described in this thesis covers multiple aspects such as optimisations, adapting existing offline methods to real-time constraints, and adding effects which were hard to simulate without the new hardware, all working towards a fully dynamic surface illumination rendering in real-time.

2. Physical modelling of acoustic shallow-water communication channels
Abstract : Akustiska kanaler för undervattenskommunikation är flervägskanaler där ljudet reflekteras från havets yta och botten och bryts vid ljudhastighetsförändringar. I grunt vatten är impulssvaret långt jämfört med symbolernas tidslängd i ett utskickat meddelande. READ MORE

3. Rotating relativistic models of the universe : construction and interpretation
Abstract : This thesis summarizes and gives the background to some accompanying papers dealing with the following problems.Some cosmological models, e.g. that of Gödel, indicate that there is a connection between rotation and the existence of causality violating closed time-like curves. READ MORE

4. Topics in Analysis and Computation of Linear Wave Propagation
Abstract : This thesis concerns the analysis and numerical simulation of wave propagation problems described by systems of linear hyperbolic partial differential equations. A major challenge in wave propagation problems is numerical simulation of high frequency waves. READ MORE

5. Frequency comb Brillouin microscopy
Abstract : Brillouin light scattering (BLS), an almost a century-old technique, has evolved into a powerful and versatile method to study acoustic and magnetic phenomena down to the nanometer size scale. Presently, BLS can be applied in fields as diverse as acoustics, spintronics, geosciences, and biophysics. READ MORE
