Description
Summary:The thesis, which is presented in this report, gave me a lot of difficult problems to solve but I also believe that I have learned a lot. I hope that the results are both instructive and easy to understand. This thesis is the last leg of a long educational journey that I started by chance in the autumn of 1995 at Mid Sweden University in Östersund. The journey continued in the autumn of 1998 when it took me to Luleå and Luleå University of Technology. I have sometimes doubted my ability and there have been many late evenings and weekends hanging over books or sitting in front of a computer. I still really cannot understand how it happened, but I have made it! First of all, I would like to thank my parents, Inga and Arvid, and my sister, Kristina, for always supporting me and believing that I would make it, even in my darkest hours. I would not have made it without you! I would also like to thank my examiner, Professor Mats Oldenburg, and my supervisor, PhD-student Magnus Eriksson. During the course of working on the thesis Magnus became more like a “co-worker ” and it has been rewarding working together. Finally, I would like to thank technician Jan Granström, who helped me with the measurement equipment for the experiments.
