  1. 1. When Cheap is Good : Cost-Effective Parent and Teacher Interventions for Children with Externalizing Behavior Problems

    Author : Martin Forster; Lennart Melin; Knut Sundell; Terje Ogden; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Applied psychology; Tillämpad psykologi; Clinical Psychology; Klinisk psykologi;

    Abstract : There is strong empirical support for behavioral parent training (BPT) as an intervention for children with externalizing behavior problems (EBP). However, there is a lack of studies that have investigated the effectiveness of BPT in routine care. Furthermore, most families in need of service do not gain access to it. READ MORE

  2. 2. Petroleum Production and Exploration : Approaching the End of Cheap Oil with Bottom-Up Modeling

    Author : Kristofer Jakobsson; Kjell Aleklett; Roger Bezdek; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The theme of this thesis is the depletion of petroleum (crude oil and natural gas). Are there reasons to be concerned about an ‘end of cheap oil’ in the near future? There is a lively debate regarding this issue. The debate is sometimes described as a clash of ‘concerned’ natural scientists and ‘unconcerned’ economists. READ MORE

    Abstract : An increasing number of people today cross the Beitbridge border of South Africa and Zimbabwe. This comes with a corresponding growth of creative strategies that seek to aid the crossing of those people and goods that may lack the necessary documentation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Experimental Design and Updating of Finite Element Models

    Author : Magnus Andersson; Lennart Ljung; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with two partly related topics: model updating and actuator/sensor placement concerning finite element (FE) models of large, flexible mechanical structures.The importance of accurate dynamical FE models of mechanical structures in, e.g., aviation/aerospace applications are steadily increasing.

  5. 5. Optical Characterization of III-Nitride and II-V Semiconductor Nanowires

    Author : David Lindgren; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; III-Nitride; III-V; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Lindgren; Semiconductor; Nanowire; Photoluminescence; Cathodoluminescence;

    Abstract : The optical properties of III-V semiconductor nanowires for optical devices have been investigated by photoluminescence spectroscopy, cathodoluminescence spectroscopy and cathodoluminescence imaging. The material systems that have been studied include the nitrides (InN, GaN and AlN) and ternaries, and a few common phosphides and arsenides. READ MORE
