Denna avhandling handlar om teoretisk partikelfysik. Partikelfysik handlar om elementarpartiklar och hur dessa växelverkar med varandra, dvs vilka krafter som verkar mellan dem. Detta är hur materien ser ut på den minsta skala vi har kunnat studera experimentellt. Den teori som beskriver de starka, svaga och elektromagnetiska krafterna och de materiepartiklar som vi känner till, kvarkar och leptonThis thesis includes two topics.The first three papers is the major part of this thesis, which is about higher order calculations in the effective field theories of three QCD-like theories. These three QCD-like theories are distinguished by having quarks in a complex, real or pseudo-real representation of gauge group. We wrote their effective field theories in a very similar way so that the calcul

Constant volume combustion is studied, using a zero-dimensional model, which is a wide-ranging chemical kinetic simulation that allows a closed system of gases to be described on the basis of a set of initial conditions. The model provides an engine- or reactor-like environment in which the engine simulations allow for a variable system volume and heat transfer both to and from the system. The com

Beginning in 2002, the Department of Health (DoH) n partnership with the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) began publishing guidelines for the evidenced-based care and treatment of individuals with specific psychiatric disorders. With few exceptions the first-line psychological treatment recommended in all of the guidelines was some form of CBT. The publications of these guidelines

Ever since the end of the 1970s triple-pane windows have been ”standard” in new construction of dwellings and non-residential premises in Sweden. The background was the first oil crisis in 1973, which led to a dramatic sharpening of the thermal requirements regarding the thermal envelope of Swedish buildings. These were introduced in the new building code SBN 75 which was brought into practice in

This report was initiated and conducted as input to the discussions based on the “Vision 2015” document for the Nordic Swan that explicitly states a wish to find ways to make use of ecolabelling in the green public procurement (GPP) setting. In 2014, the Directive (2004/18/EG) on public procurement was revised and replaced by Directive (2014/24/EU). Some of the restrictions in using ecolabelling i

We investigate a model for buffer management of multi-class traffic into a finite shared buffer. A hierarchy of increasingly stronger linear programming relaxations for this model is proposed. The number of hierarchies equals the number of job classes. Each relaxation in the hierarchy is constructed by projecting the original achievable performance region into a polytope with fewer variables and f

Abstract in UndeterminedIn today's technology generations, e.g. 90 and 65 nm, the static power consumption becomes a major contributor to the total power consumption. This paper focuses on the arithmetic level and shows a methodology for a substantial reduction of the static power consumption. Simulations are done in a typical 130 nm technology. Based on the simulation results, the static power in

We report on preliminary results from time-resolved optical spectroscopy of the He-rich variable white dwarf GD 358.

Engineering design problems are most frequently charac-terized by constraints that make them hard to solve and time-consuming. When evolutionary algorithms are used to solve these problems, constraints are often handled with the generic weighted sum method or with techniques specific to the prob-lem at hand. Most commonly, all constraints are evaluated at each generation, and it is also necessary

A combustion system was developed to burn a low value gas in the VT4400 IGT engine demonstrator. The combustor was designed in an engine configuration consisting of a single LCV combustor operating in combination with six LP combustors.
