1. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.

2. Loading tests on composite concrete columns : A comparison between composite columns made of permanent 3DPC formwork filled with SCC and columns made of homogenous SCC
University essay from KTH/BetongbyggnadAbstract : In order to achieve increased sustainability when casting concrete structures this thesis investigates the possibility of utilizing 3D-printing to construct formwork and digitalize construction. By digitizing construction less workers are needed and therefore less capital. READ MORE

5. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE
