A first lesson in physical chemistry invariably starts with an example of water existing in three states, or phases - gaseous (water vapour), liquid (water from the tap) and solid (ice cubes). Such phase transitions are easily observed, but their underlying cause is not so evident. Atoms and molecules are difficult to follow due to their minute size and rapid movements. So, in order to investigateThe effect of microscopic colloid interactions on the resultant macroscopic phase behaviour is a frequently studied topic in soft matter resarch, and lies at the heart of this thesis. Key structural and dynamic properties of colloidal model systems across liquid-solid transitions are tracked using optical imaging techniques. The first studied system comprises of thermosensitive microgels. These ar

Based on multiphase field conception and integrated with the idea of vectorvalued phase field, a phase field model for typical allotropic transformation of solid solution is proposed. The model takes the non-uniform distribution of grain boundaries of parent phase and crystal orientation into account in proper way, as being illustrated by the simulation of austenite to ferrite transformation in lo

Deuterated biomolecules - where hydrogen atoms (H) are exchanged to its isotope deuterium (D) - are essential for biological experiments in neutron scattering, but they are not readily available. In neutron scattering, D has a strong positive coherent scattering length (6.67 fm) in comparison with the negative scattering length of H (-3.74 fm).

Abstract Title: The balance of redeployment: A case study of dental employees’ orientation to temporary downward redeployment and its implications Authors: Julia Carldén & Alice Idéhn Supervisor: Tony Huzzard Submission Date: 21st of May, 2021 Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to qualitatively examine the phenomenon of temporary downward redeployment, thus gaining a deeper understan

This study tests whether the Ricardian Equivalence Hypothesis holds in Sweden when the private sector faces an intertemporal budget constraint skewed by the media narrative. Time series analysis of cointegrated vector autoregressive processes is utilized to identify Ricardian consumer behavior in three different models, in order to find differences in consumer behavior when media narrative bias is

Popular Abstract in English Synthetic chemicals are the basis of the modern civilisation. Nowadays, they have a bad reputation, but it is only due to them that we are able to live healthier, longer, receive improving medical treatments, use the comforts of modern technologies and not die of thirst and starvation, despite the immense population growth. The main task of organic synthesis is to transThe ligand-directed C—H activation relies on a coordinating donor atom being in proximity to the C—H bond activated. Cyclometallation of 2-(1-naphthyl)-pyridine – a substrate containing both γ- and δ-positions in proximity to the directing nitrogen atom – was studied. Cycloruthenation and cyclopalladation result in γ-substitution and formation of the corresponding 5-membered metallacycles, which i

A polymer foil based array with 9 gold electrodes for chronic electrophysiological recordings in the CNS has been developed. A polymer, SU-8, is pattered using photolithography techniques used every day in micro fabrication. This is beneficial if the electrode would be manufactured on a large scale basis. The technique makes it easy to adapt the array to best fit the structure of interest at the t

Mexico has experienced the dramatic escalation of crime and violence in an organized form since the 1990s, and have also witnessed the highest number of homicides in the last ten years. It has adversely affected the national security, economic growth and social development with an especially detrimental effect on youth in Mexico. This study examines the direct and indirect impacts of drug trade-re

Twelve years ago, eleven European countries voluntarily abandoned their home currencies and joined the Euro. The founding fathers of the Euro believed that creation of the common currency would strengthen integration among the members and catalyze economic convergence progress within the common currency area. This study examines this issue in detail. I focus on labor productivity convergence and s

This study aims to evaluate whether the process of the Swedish development cooperation is democratic or not, by measuring if the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are able to participate and influence the decision-making process. The background of the study is an interview with the Swedish minister of development cooperation where she emphasized the significance of a more focused and results-b
