2. 1. Beyond Köhler theory : Molecular dynamics simulations as a tool for atmospheric science

   Author : Thomas Hede; Caroline Leck; Veli-Matti Kerminen; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Köhler theory; molecular dynamics; surface tension; aggregate; climate; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the results from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of nanoaerosol clusters are discussed. The connecting link of these studies is the Köhler theory, which is the theory of condensational growth and activation of cloud droplets to form clouds. READ MORE

4. 2. A model of contextual factors and inter-organizational integration : A Ground Theory study of two supply chains

   Author : Hana Hulthén; Dag Näslund; Helena Forslund; Teknisk logistik; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inter-organizational integration; contingency theory; grounded theory; contextual factors; Logistics; Logistik; Logistics; Logistik; supply chain integration; inter-organizational integration; structural contingency theory; grounded theory; contextual factors; fit;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to understanding of the effect of organizational context on supply chain integration. One result is a context- based model that can provide support for practitioners regarding what level of integration to establish with suppliers and customers. READ MORE

5. 3. Interest Groups and Government Policy. A Political Economy Analysis

   Author : Fredrik CA Andersson; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; economic policy; Nationalekonomi; ekonomisk politik; ekonomisk teori; ekonomiska system; ekonometri; economic systems; economic theory; econometrics; Economics; Special Interest Groups; Lobbying; Labour Unions; Information; Growth; Inequality; Corporatism; Campaign Contributions;

   Abstract : Politics induce economic agents to organise into special interest groups (SIGs) and act strategically to adjust their economic decisions and to conduct rent-seeking activities in order do improve the situation inflicted on them by policy. This thesis examines, in four essays, different forms of SIG influence on public policy in different institutional contexts. READ MORE

6. 4. Formation stability and electronic structure of surfaces and interfaces from first principles

   Author : Jochen Rohrer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; band structure; van der Waals interaction; electronic structure; graphane; graphene; atomic structure; growth; thin film; interface; density functional theory; CVD; Alumina; nucleation;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with two closely interwoven aspects of first-principle(density functional theory) materials modeling:(1)~prediction of atomic structure & chemical composition,and (2)~prediction of electronic properties.In the first part, we focus on atomic structure (AS) and chemical composition (CC) of surface and interface systems.

7. 5. Thermal adaptation along a latitudinal gradient in damselflies

   Author : Viktor Nilsson-Örtman; Frank Johansson; Karl Gotthard; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Growth rate; metabolic theory of ecology; universal temperature dependence; environmental gradients; thermal performance; thermal sensitivity; environmental variability; optimality theory; life history; acclimation; size structure; competition; cannibalism; intraguild predation;

   Abstract : Understanding how temperature affects biological systems is a central question in ecology and evolutionary biology. Anthropogenic climate change adds urgency to this topic, as the demise or success of species under climate change is expected to depend on how temperature affects important aspects of organismal performance, such as growth, development, survival and reproduction.
