• Atomistic modeling of the Al-Mg-Si alloy system 

      Frøseth, Anders G. (Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2003:28, Doctoral thesis, 2003)
      The atomic and electronic structure of bulk crystalline and solid state phases related to Al-Mg-Si (6xxx) alloys have been studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and total energy Tight Binding (TB). We present a ...
    • Critical Properties of the Abelian Higgs Model.: A Monte Carlo Study 

      Hove, Joakim (Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2002:27, Doctoral thesis, 2002)
      We have studied various aspects of the critical properties of the Abelian Higgs model. The initial motivation to study this model is its relation to superconductivity, but the results extend beyond the realms of ...
    • Ordering and Preferred Orientation in Films of Polymeric Semiconductors 

      Breiby, Dag W. (Dr. ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2002:145, Doctoral thesis, 2003)
      Various aspects related to molecular ordering and preferred orientation in films of polymeric semiconductors is presented. The polymers poly(alkylthiophene)s (PATs) and poly(3,4- ethylenedioxythiophene)s (PEDOTs), being ...
    • Rotational Diffusion Processes in Segmented Polymers. Theory and Computer Simulations 

      Ådland, Hans Magne (Dr.ingeniøravhandling, 0809-103X; 2002:139, Doctoral thesis, 2003)
      All biological macromolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins, polysaccarids) are polymers. These are extremely complex systems, with thousands or millions of atomic degrees of freedom. However, a range of important properties of such ...
