  2. 16. Initial-Boundary-Value Problems for the Stokes and Navier–Stokes Equations on Staggered Grids

    Author : Jonas Nilsson; Bertil Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stokes equations; Navier-Stokes equations; boundary conditions; staggered grids; higher-order methods; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : In the first part of the thesis various types of boundary conditions for the steady state Stokes equations are considered. We formulate the boundary conditions in a new way, such that the boundary value problem becomes non-singular, and derive estimates of the solution. READ MORE

  4. 17. Gene technology at stake : Swedish governmental commissions on the border of science and politics

    Author : Jenny Eklöf; Kjell Jonsson; Christer Nordlund; Susanne Lundin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Gene technology; biotechnology; recombinant DNA technology; bioethics; ethics; risk; GMO; embryo; transgenic organisms; boundary organization; boundary object; governmental commission; regulatory policy; Sweden; public; expertise; democracy; History of science and ideas; Idé- o lärdomshistoria;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the Swedish political response to the challenges posed by gene technology, seen through the prism of governmental commissions. It discerns and analyses continuities and changes in the Swedish political conception of gene technology, over the course of two decades, 1980–2000. READ MORE

  5. 18. The Double Obstacle Problem on Metric Spaces

    Author : Zohra Farnana; Jana Björn; Anders Björn; Jan Malý; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : In this thesis we investigate the double obstacle problem for p-harmonic functions on metric spaces. We minimize the p-energy integral among all functions which have prescribed boundary values and lie between two given obstacles. READ MORE

  6. 19. Dirichlet's problem in Pluripotential Theory

    Author : Hoàng Hiệp Phạm; Urban Cegrell; Slawomir Kolodziej; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex Monge-Ampère operator; currents; Dirichlet problem; pluripotential theory; plurisubharmonic function; subextension; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : In this thesis we focus on Dirichlet's problem for the complex Monge-Ampère equation. That is, for a given non-negative Radon measure µ we are interested in the conditions under which there exists a plurisubharmonic function u such that (ddcu)n=µ, where (ddc)n is the complex Monge-Ampère operator.

  7. 20. In the name of safety : power, politics and the constitutive effects of local governing practices in Sweden

    Author : Jennie Brandén; Malin Rönnblom; Linda Sandberg; Christine Hudson; Emilia Palonen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Safety; unsafety; governmentality; political ethnography; public space; safety walks; participation; community; certification; security guards; private security; patrolling; Sweden; statskunskap; political science; genusvetenskap; gender studies;

    Abstract : In a time of uncertainty and risk, safety has become an increasingly significant concern. In Sweden, a powerful discourse around public safety has developed in recent years, moving it to the top of the political agenda. READ MORE
