2. 1. Dynamic Interactions : National Political Parties, Voters and European Integration

   Author : Johan Hellström; Svante Ersson; Mikko Mattila; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Euroscepticism; European integration; dynamic representation; panel data; party positions; political parties; public opinion; voters; Political science; Statsvetenskap; statskunskap; political science;

   Abstract : This thesis consists of an introduction and four self-contained papers, designated I-IV, which extend previous research on national political parties and voters in Western Europe. More specifically, the issues addressed are parties’ positions and voters’ opinions on European integration and their dynamic interactions, i.e. READ MORE

4. 2. Dynamic Characteristics of Floating Breakwaters

   Author : Aurora Xiaomeng Lei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; floating breakwaters; couplings joints ; dynamic cables; dynamic response; line tension; wave attenuation; wave reflection;

   Abstract : The dynamic behaviour of interconnected floating breakwaters has been studied theoretically and experimentally. For this type of shore-protection system, problems that must be dealt with include wave loads on the breakwaters caused by the interaction between the bodies and the waves, motions of the moored breakwaters caused by the waves, changed wave fields in front of and behind the breakwaters, and forces on the mooring cables and in interconnections between breakwater units.

5. 3. A Factor Analytical Approach to Dynamic Panel Data Models

   Author : Milda Norkute; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Dynamic panel data models; Factor analytical method; Bias; Incidental trends; MA errors; Factor-GMM;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the development and application of new estimation approaches based on factor analysis for estimation and inference in dynamic panel data models with fixed-effects. A new factor analytical method (FA) for the estimation of fixed-effects dynamic panel data models is proposed in Bai ("Fixed-Effects Dynamic Panel Models, A Factor Analytical Method". READ MORE

6. 4. Non-linear dynamic modelling for panel data in the social sciences

   Author : Shyam Ranganathan; David JT Sumpter; Oliver Johnson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dynamical systems; stochastic models; Bayesian; panel data; social sciences; development; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

   Abstract : Non-linearities and dynamic interactions between state variables are characteristic of complex social systems and processes. In this thesis, we present a new methodology to model these non-linearities and interactions from the large panel datasets available for some of these systems. READ MORE

7. 5. Likelihood-Based Panel Unit Root Tests for Factor Models

   Author : Xingwu Zhou; Johan Lyhagen; Joakim Westerlund; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Panel unit root; Exact factor model; Dynamic factor model; Maximum likelihood; Principal components; Lagrange multiplier;

   Abstract : The thesis consists of four papers that address likelihood-based unit root tests for panel data with cross-sectional dependence arising from common factors.In the first three papers, we derive Lagrange multiplier (LM)-type tests for common and idiosyncratic unit roots in the exact factor models based on the likelihood function of the differenced data.
