  2. 6. Improving emergency and disaster response management performance : A problem-solving perspective

    Author : Tove Frykmer; Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; emergency; disaster; response management performance; problem solving; collective;

    Abstract : The purpose of this doctoral thesis is to investigate how collective emergency and disaster response management performance can be further improved. Based on four studies, this research contributes with knowledge in two areas.First, collective processes that might improve response management are investigated. READ MORE

  4. 7. Mathematical models of biological interactions

    Author : Linnéa Gyllingberg; David J.T. Sumpter; Kolbjörn Tunström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : Mathematical models are used to describe and analyse different types of biological interactions.  From self-propelled particle models capturing the collective motion of fish schools to models in mathematical neuroscience describing the interactions between neurons to individual-based models of ecological interactions.

  5. 8. Fermions in two dimensions and exactly solvable models

    Author : Jonas de Woul; Edwin Langmann; Fabian Essler; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bosonization; Exactly solvable models; Hubbard model; Mean field theory; Quantum field theory; Strongly correlated systems;

    Abstract : This Ph.D. thesis in mathematical physics concerns systems of interacting fermions with strong correlations. For these systems the physical properties can only be described in terms of the collective behavior of the fermions. READ MORE

  6. 9. Redundancy and the Swedish model : Swedish collective agreements on employment security in a national and international context

    Author : Gabriella Sebardt; Ronnie Eklund; Silvana Sciarra; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Labour law; redundancy; employment security; collective agreement; labour market policy; severance compensation; transition support; comparative law; Labour law; Arbetsrätt;

    Abstract : The dominant position of the employment perspective in Swedish labour law has resulted in a focus on the creation of protection against arbitrary dismissals and the reward for long and faithful service. In contrast to other industrialised countries, there is no financial protection in situations of redundancy (e.g. READ MORE

  7. 10. Modelling collective movement and transport network formation in living systems

    Author : Arianna Bottinelli; David Sumpter; Renaud Lambiotte; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; animal collective behaviour; transport networks; crowd dynamics; complex systems; ants; fish; Tillämpad matematik och statistik; Applied Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The emergence of collective patterns from repeated local interactions between individuals is a common feature to most living systems, spanning a variety of scales from cells to animals and humans. Subjects of this thesis are two aspects of emergent complexity in living systems: collective movement and transport network formation. READ MORE
