The subject of this thesis is experimental investigation of self-assembly in solvent-free (ionic) macromolecular systems that contain block copolymer chains as the basic constituent component in combination with low molecular weight amphiphiles. In particular, especial attention is paid to study thoroughly a new class of block copolymer-based ionic supramolecules, named as Linear-b-AmphComb, that

In this article I use autoethnographic method to assess two situations in which my kink identity and my non-monogamous identity clash with my role as a university teacher. Both identities are norm-breaking and stigmatized. They are coded as private in contrast to the professional ideal of the teacher. I ask how it affects me to keep part of my lived reality hidden and discuss what conflicts are ob

Abstract Intensive land use in agriculture can lead to higher loss of biodiversity in soils and subsequently carbon due to tillage and application of pesticides and fertilizers. The microbial communities are pivotal to ecosystem processes in soil such as nutrient cycling, soil formation and plant productivity and thus are affected by land use. The main aim of this thesis is to understand the effe

The textile industry’s linear business paradigm fuels excessive resource extraction and generate vast amounts of waste. Despite the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and growing industry awareness of these environmental concerns, many firms struggle to implement transformative Circular Business Models (CBMs) that provide a sustainable countermodel. Underlying socio-technical dynamics further amplify

The science of decision making is studied in many areas of science and engineering, for example within, computer science, automatic control theory, mathematics and neurophysiology. The aim of this text is to provide a very brief overview of some of the models and tools used within mathematical decision making. These models can be studied in terms of an agent that observes the world and takes decis

This paper deals with limitations on control system performance due to load disturbances, measurement noise, actuator saturation and system dynamics. Simple problems which capture the essence of the problem are formulated and solved. The results make it possible to quickly explore a design problem for preliminary assessment before attempting to do massive computations. They are also useful ingredi

This Letter presents evidence for the associated production of a W boson and a top quark using 2.05 fb(-1) of pp collision data at root s = 7 TeV accumulated with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The analysis is based on the selection of the dileptonic final states with events featuring two isolated leptons, electron or muon, with significant transverse missing momentum and at least one jet. An appr

Ambitions and ClarificationsThe book takes its point of departure in the "intimate visions of society" that are significant of contemporary social life. This concept refers to the tendency to apprehend good social relations as personal, close and warm, while bad relations correspondingly are perceived as impersonal, cold, distant and alienated. Exemplary categories, such as closeness, warmth, commAmbitions and ClarificationsThe book takes its point of departure in the "intimate visions of society" that are significant of contemporary social life.

Theoretical option prices can be computed using several different pricing models which make numerous assumptions about the markets and the underlying asset. Depending on those assumptions, the models have different strengths and weaknesses which make them more suited to a specific type of market. This study evaluates six different pricing models implemented in MATLAB, and introduces a combined mod
