16. On the small strain stiffness of some Scandinavian clays and impact on deep excavation
Abstract : This thesis presents the results of a comprehensive study on the small strain stiffness of several Swedish clays and its tentative effect on the design of retaining structures. A combination of field measurement techniques, seismic dilatometer and surface seismics, are complemented with bender element testing of the retrieved samples. READ MORE

17. High-speed 3D imaging of liquid jets, surfaces and respiratory droplets
Abstract : Sprays are commonly found in, among other, combustion, agriculture and food processing. For each of these applications, the understanding of spray liquid dynamics is crucial for optimization of efficiency, accuracy, and robustness of the spray-system in use. READ MORE

18. Detection and Depth Sounding of Small Targets with Airborne Laser Bathymetry
Abstract : The subject of this thesis is an investigation of the potential for detecting small targets (size about 1 m3) with airborne scanning laser depth sounding. Examples of other optical techniques of interest for small target detection are: range gated imaging, polarized detection and passive multispectral imaging. READ MORE

19. Turbulent Structure of the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer and Its Implications for the Inertial Dissipation Method
Abstract : In order to improve climate- and weather forecasting models, a better knowledge of the physical processes taking place in the lowest part of the atmosphere over the oceans is essential. In these models it is often assumed that the atmospheric boundary layer over sea behaves in the same way as that over land. READ MORE

20. Dynamic Source Models of Icelandic Earthquakes and Teleseismic Tomograhy along the TOR array
Abstract : This thesis describes new inversion-oriented methodological developments and their seismological applications. In the first study presented the dynamic source parameters of some local Icelandic earthquakes are studied by employing a time domain moment tensor inversion method. READ MORE
