  2. 1. Industrial buying behavior of large Swedish firms : case studies of the purchase of educational services

    Author : Åsa Wallström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Industrial Marketing; Industriell marknadsföring;

    Abstract : The lack of studies focusing on industrial buying behavior in the purchase of professional services, coupled with the increased corporate need of investing in employee training and education, created the foundation for the research problem of this thesis: How can the buying behavior of large Swedish firms be characterized when they purchase educational services in the area of sales and marketing? Based on this research problem, five research questions were developed. A frame of reference describing industrial buying behavior in the purchase of professional services was then created, based on the literature review. READ MORE

  4. 2. Simulations of turbulent boundary layers with suction and pressure gradients

    Author : Alexandra Bobke; Philipp Schlatter; Ramis Örlü; Ayse Gul Gungor; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; boundary layers; near-wall turbulence; history effects; asymptotic suction boundary layers; large-eddy simulation;

    Abstract : The focus of the present licentiate thesis is on the effect of suction and pressure gradients on turbulent boundary-layer flows, which are investigated separately through performing numerical simulations.The first part aims at assessing history and development effects on adverse pressure-gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layers (TBL).

  5. 3. Maturation of humoral immune responses : Studies on the effects of antigen type, apoptosis and age

    Author : Karin Lindroth; Carmen Fernández; Kenneth G.C. Smith; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immunology; B cell; humoral immune response; Immunology; Immunologi;

    Abstract : The humoral immune response is dependent on the formation of antibodies. Antibodies are produced by terminally differentiated B cells, plasma cells. Plasma cells are generated either directly from antigen challenged B cells, memory cells or from cells that have undergone the germinal center (GC) reaction. READ MORE
