11. Probabilistic modeling of fatigue failures
Abstract : Fatigue is a well known failure mode in engineering that can have catastrophic consequences, such as loss of human life. Thus design against fatigue failure is very important. There are many sources of scatter present in fatigue, for instance; the difference in load in-between users of a product, material scatter and scatter in the production. READ MORE

12. Analysis of laser arc hybrid welding experiments
Abstract : The thesis is about the analysis of experimental results on the laser arc hybrid welding (LAHW) process as well as about the methodology and tools behind. Due to the high potential on weld penetration and welding speed, the industrial importance of LAHW techniques has been increasing in the recent years. READ MORE

13. Out-of-Round Railway Wheels - Causes and Consequences An Investigation Including Field Tests, Out-of-Roundness Measurements and Numerical Simulations
Abstract : Causes and consequences of out-of-round railway wheels are investigated through literature studies, full-scale field experiments, out-of-roundness measurements, and numerical simulations. Both defects around the complete wheel circumference (e.g. polygonal wheels with wavelengths up to one wheel circumference) and local defects (e. READ MORE

14. Genetic studies of skin barrier defects with focus on atopic dermatitis
Abstract : Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, complex inflammatory skin disorder where a defect skin barrier is central in the pathogenesis. Mutations in the filaggrin gene cause ichthyosis vulgaris (IV). IV is one of several keratinization disorders named ichthyoses where mutations in skin barrier genes are a common underlying genetic factor. READ MORE

15. Rationality in inquiry : on the revisability of cognitive standards
Abstract : The topic of this study is to what extent standards of rational inquiry can be rationally criticized and revised. It is argued that it is rational to treat all such standards as open to criticism and revision.Arguments to the effect that we are fallible with regard to all standards of rational inquiry are presented.
