  2. 1. Towards Plane Hurwitz Numbers

    Author : Jared Ongaro; Boris Shapiro; Roy Skjelnes; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Algebraic curves; Hurwitz spaces; Mathematics; matematik;

    Abstract : The main objects of this thesis are branched coverings obtained as projection from a point in P^2. Our general goal is to understand how a given meromorphic function f: X -> P^1 can be induced from a composition X --> C -> P^1, where C is a plane curve in  P^2 which is birationally equivalent to the smooth curve X.

  4. 2. In-Plane Fracture of Paper

    Author : Johan Tryding; Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggnadsteknik; Building construction; Paper; Fracture energy; Strain softening; Localized damage; Fracture mechanics;

    Abstract : The in-plane failure of paper is studied in this work by means of a cohesive crack model from experimental as well as theoretical perspectives. Localized damage at in-plane tension of short paper strips is studied for low strain rates. READ MORE

  5. 3. Invariants of knot diagrams and diagrammatic knot invariants

    Author : Olof-Petter Östlund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Knot theory; knot diagram; plane curve; Reidemeister move; finite degree invariant; combinatorial knot invariant; Gauss diagram; MATEMATIK; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : Two knot diagrams describe isotopic knots if and only if they can be connected by a sequence of planar isotopies and Reidemeister moves (cusp-, self-tangency-, and triple point moves). In this dissertation classes of knot diagrams, Reidemeister moves, and relations between sequences of Reidemeister moves are investigated, in a manner inspired by V. READ MORE

  6. 4. Complex Phase Behavior in Thermoelectric Mg2Si1-xSnx Alloys and Development of Transient Plane Source Method for Structural Characterization

    Author : Andrey Sizov; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multiphase structure; quality control; inhomogeneity tests; Rietveld refinement; Transient Plane Source method; isotropic and anisotropic materials; defects detection; advance measurements of thermal properties; X-ray diffraction; structural characterization; spark plasma sintering; magnesium silicide-stannide alloys; complex behavior; thermoelectric properties; thermal conductivity vs. probing depth;

    Abstract : The thermoelectric effect was discovered nearly 200 years ago, but it started to be utilized for waste heat recovery only fairly recently. From an economical point of view, such applications requires a cheap and efficient material, which is able to convert heat energy into electricity. READ MORE

  7. 5. Constructive Newton–Puiseux Theorem, Sheaf Model of the Separable Closure and Dynamic Evaluation

    Author : Bassel Mannaa; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Newton–Puiseux; Algebraic curve; Sheaf model; Dynamic evaluation; Algebraic number; Grothendieck topos; Grothendieck topos;

    Abstract : Computing the Puiseux expansions of a plane algebraic curve defined by an affine equation over an algebraically closed field is a an important algorithm in algebraic geometry. This is the so-called Newton–Puiseux Theorem. The termination of this algorithm, however, is usually justified by non-constructive means. READ MORE
