16. Restraint factors and partial coefficients for crack risk analyses of early age concrete structures
Abstract : It is well known for contractors that due to volume change during the hydration phase in concrete structures, large stresses can arise if the structures are restrained, stresses that may cause extensive cracking. Crack risk estimation of early age concrete structures can be based on five steps. READ MORE

17. Thermal stresses in concrete structures at early ages
Abstract : This thesis deals with the problem of formulating constitutive models for the analysis of early-age thermal stresses in concrete due to hydration. The main features of the work are constitutive modelling of early-age concrete behaviour experimental studies to check the models and to determine material parameters application of the models to some design and construction situations.

18. Structural and functional brain connectivity abnormalities associated with adolescent conduct disorder in females
Abstract : Background: Antisocial behavior (ASB) in childhood and adolescence is indexed by the diagnosis of conduct disorder (CD) and is associated with high rates of comorbid mental disorders, such as anxiety, depression, alcohol and drug dependence, as well as maltreatment. Elevated levels of psychopathic traits further complicate the clinical picture of adolescents with CD. READ MORE

19. Two Essays in Empirical Finance: Unit-Root Testing in the Presence of Structural Breaks
Abstract : Essay 1: Real Exchange Rate Adjustment in European Transition Countries Essay 1 presents unit-root test results for real exchange rates in ten Central and Eastern European transition countries relative to the Euro during 1993:01-2005:12. Because of the shift from controlled to market economies and the accompanying crises, failed policy regimes and changes in exchange rate regimes, appropriate tests in transition countries require allowing for both structural changes and outliers.

20. Nuclear data uncertainty quantification and data assimilation for a lead-cooled fast reactor : Using integral experiments for improved accuracy
Abstract : For the successful deployment of advanced nuclear systems and optimization of current reactor designs, high quality nuclear data are required. Before nuclear data can be used in applications they must first be evaluated, tested and validated against a set of integral experiments, and then converted into formats usable for applications.
