A directional crack growth criterion in a compressed elastic perfectly plastic material is considered. The conditions at the crack-tip are evaluated for a straight stationary crack with a small incipient kink. Remote load is a combined hydrostatic pressure and pure shear applied via a boundary layer. Crack surfaces in contact are assumed to develop homogenous Coulomb friction.

This thesis investigates buyer preferences in the procurement of Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs) under Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement, which facilitates international cooperation through carbon markets. As ITMO markets are still in the early stages of development, uncertainties regarding regulatory frameworks, environmental integrity, and procurement strategies have eme

In complex product development, effective integration between design and pro- duction is crucial to minimizing time and costs. This project focuses on SAAB Kockums (SK), a global player in submarine manufacturing, aiming to identify and propose improvements for the development opportunities related to the de- sign and production guidelines (KPA) for piping systems. The purpose is to explore the de

Abstract The water-scarcity diverts states to protect their national interests through engaging with hydro-politics and a noticeable strategy realized by capable states is hydro-hegemony. Although it is an effective response, hydro-hegemony entails unfair resource allocations and aggrieves the relatively weaker riparians. The purpose of this thesis is to illustrate the hydro-hegemony on a prominen

Today, the majority of employees in the tourism industry work under contingent and fairly insecure working conditions, among them seasonal employees. In this industry, the business of amusement parks and resort hotels is one with a high quota of seasonally hired front-line employees. Research from Human Resource Manage¬ment pinpoints the underlying risks of low commitment among employees in an ind

AbstractBackground: Around one fourth of patients with colorectal cancer present themselves with distant metastases at the time of diagnosis, and one additional one fifth of the patients will develop distant metastases during the disease, most commonly in the liver. Surgical treatment such as liver resection or ablation, often combined with chemotherapy and targeted therapy, is the only treatment BackgroundAround one fourth of patients with colorectal cancer present themselves with distant metastases at the time of diagnosis, and one additional one fifth of the patients will develop distant metastases during the disease, most commonly in the liver.Surgical treatment such as liver resection or ablation, often combined with chemotherapy and targeted therapy, is the only treatment option with

Almost all species face some degree of predation risk, and, hence, evolution has produced a plethora of anti-predator defences. However, anti-predator strategies require resources, and the prevailing risk of becoming prey is influenced by many factors and rarely constant across time and space. Evolution has therefore favoured the development of phenotypic plasticity in anti-predator defences. The

Popular Abstract in English The thesis that you are reading at this moment was printed using climate compensated paper, a sign that consciously or not you are contributing somehow to control the current environmental issues in our planet. It would not be nice if every single article used in your daily life contains information about how environmentally friendly that product is? We have to think “bOxidation reactions are important in organic chemistry as well as in nature. In industry, oxidations are commonly used for the synthesis of chemicals and pharmaceuticals, however such processes have a number of limitations, they use chlorinated solvents, stoichiometric oxidation reagents, and in some cases the reagents that have risks of explosion during transportation and storage. This has called

Since there is a lack of scientific knowledge concerning strategic thinking, this study sought to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the concept. The presumption of the study is that one needs strategic thinking to deal with complex and unfamiliar situations. As globalisation is one main driving factor in the change of how business is run, there is an increased need for organisations to

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ökad livsmedelsproduktion utgör ett viktigt steg för att uppnå livsmedelssäkerhet i Kamerun. Under det senaste halvseklet har ökningen av produktionen i huvudsak uppnåtts genom ökad uppodling. Till följd av ökad konkurrens om marken från jordbruket och andra sektorer är dessa möjligheter till ökad produktion, för att möta landets växande efterfråga nu begränsad. Alterna

This report contains an analysis of major fatal fires. The analysis is carried out using the methodology in the conference article "Learning from real fire incidents - A methodology for case studies." The methodology is used to systematically introduce, analyse and draw joint conclusions of the various events. The aim is to find the key factors leading to the development of the events, i
