16. Toughness enhancement in transition metal nitrides
Abstract : Toughness enhancements can be induced in cubic-B1 transition metal nitride alloys by an increased occupation of the d-t2g metallic states. In this Licentiate Thesis I use density functional theory to investigate the mechanical properties of TiN and VN and of the ternaries obtained by replacing 50% of Ti and V atoms with M (M = V, Nb, Ta, Mo, and W) to form ordered structures with minimum number of inter-metallic bonds.

17. Computational analysis of oligosaccharide conformations – methodological development, applied studies, and design of glycomimetics
Abstract : Carbohydrates are the most abundant class of biomolecules. Besides their roles as structural elements and energy storage, they are involved in signaling and recognition processes. Their functions and activities depend on their preferred conformations. READ MORE

20. Microstructure and property models of alloy 718 applicable for simulation of manufacturing processes
Abstract : This thesis focuses on experimental characterization, understanding and modelling of nickel-based alloy 718, for a large range of loading conditions. Alloy 718 is the most widely used nickel-based superalloy, due to its high strength, high corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. READ MORE
