This thesis deals with the design and synthesis of rhodium and iridium bis-η2 diolefin catalysts and their applications in C–C bond formation and asymmetric catalysis.More specifically, the second chapter describes the development of inter- and intramolecular (5+2) cycloadditions catalyzed by cationic iridium(I) complexes that lead to the formation of seven-membered rings in a single step. DFT was
This thesis aims to contribute to the field of time controlled charge and energy transport in mesoscopic systems. In Chapter 1, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 a short review of the scattering matrix theory is presented, including both charge and energy transport, useful to understand the mathematical landscape used in Papers I, II, III and IV. Chapter 3 briefly presents the thermoelectric properties of m
The contribution of this licentiate thesis lies in the modelling of a multi-echelon inventory system with more general backorder cost structures. Backorder costs are traditionally assumed to be linear, whereas we consider structures that are more general functions of the customers’ time in backorder. The system studied is a two-echelon system with one central warehouse and a number of local sites,
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory, and systemic disease of unknown aetiology that affects 0.5‒1.0% of the population in Europe, more women than men. Pain, physical disability, fatigue, and sleep disturbances are some of the most pronounced symptoms in patients with a more severe disease or with a longer disease duration, resulting in activity limitations that affect quality of l
