    Spanish author C. Martín Gaite developed a number of theories on communication and the interlocutor in her essays and articles, that she put in practice in her narrative work through author-reader and characters communicative interaction. This study ...
  • Dillman, Kevin (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2021-08)
    Globally, electric vehicles (EVs) are being touted by countries and international organizations as a key transition technology to decarbonize the road transport sector. Yet, other researchers have suggested that EVs may not be a silver bullet solution, ...
  • Khosa, Rabia Yasmin (2017)
    Silicon is a semiconductor material used in most power devices and the Si metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) is the key switching device for high power applications. Recently silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs have emerged on the ...
  • Lévy, Léa (Paris Sciences et Lettres, Laboratoire de Géologie de l'Ecole Normale Supérieure and University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2019-04)
    The electrical signature of volcanoes is affected by several characteristics of rocks: volume and salinity of pore fluid, abundance of conductive minerals, rock temperature and presence of molten crust (magma). Electromagnetic soundings are widely used ...
  • Andrea, Proto (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2021)
    The aim of this work is to explore the role of electronegativity and the electron power absorption mechanism in electronegative capacitively coupled oxygen and chlorine discharges. The fundamental mechanisms underlying the electron heating and the ...
  • Stefánsdóttir, Vigdís (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2019-09)
    The overall aim of this PhD thesis was to cohesively assess the availability and use of electronic genealogy databases and information from cancer registries to construct electronically generated pedigrees for risk assessment in genetic counselling. ...
  • Benediktsson, Barði (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2022-06-22)
    Iron-sulfur clusters are integral to the biochemistry of living organisms and a lot of effort has been devoted to research their structure and function. However, describing these polynuclear iron-sulfur clusters with computa tional chemistry poses a ...
  • Emami, Nargessadat (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2021-08-27)
    Buildings are the key components of urban areas and society as a complex system. Traditionally, the emissions embodied in construction materials have not been considered important, in comparison with impacts from the energy use when it comes to mitigating ...
  • Badarneh, Mohammad H. A. (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2024-02-21)
    Encoding data with magnetic states is currently used in various devices for data transmission, storage, and processing. The operating principle in these devices is often based on controlled switching, e.g., using a pulse of an external magnetic field, ...
  • Angel Ramelli, Juan Fernando (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2020-11)
    In recent years, the study of entanglement properties of quantum field theories has led to deep insights in fields as diverse as quantum gravity and condensed matter physics. Originating as effective field theories for certain quantum dimer models, the ...
  • Árnadóttir, Áróra (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2021-08)
    The consumption activities of urbanites contribute to an ever-increasing share of greenhouse gas emissions and resource depletion. As urban form influences behaviours, the search for the most sustainable type of urban form is a research topic of interest. ...
  • Elíasdóttir, Ólöf Jóna (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2020)
    Purpose and aims: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that leads to damage in the central nervous system. Although the cause of MS is still unknown, the generally accepted view is that environmental and life-style factors influence the ...
  • Hjálmarsdóttir, Martha Ásdís (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medcine, 2016-10-14)
    Streptococcus pneumoniae, pneumókokkar, sem ekki voru næmir fyrir penisillíni (PÓP) fundust fyrst á Íslandi 1988 og urðu á fjórum árum 20% allra pneumókokka stofna sem greindust hjá sjúklingum. Flestir voru þeir af hjúpgerð 6Bii/E, CC90. Árið 2011 ...
  • Rafnsdóttir, Salvör (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2024-04-05)
    Þekkt er að kæling frumna (32-36°C) eykur tjáningu fáeinna þekktra gena. Margt er á huldu um þá innanfrumu- og millifrumuferla sem kæling snertir við og kallaðir hafa verið kælisvarið. Kæling er notuð í læknisfræðilegum tilgangi til að fá fram ...
  • Hermanowicz, Stefan (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2019-05)
    The DNA damage response is crucial to maintaining the integrity of DNA and the health of a cell. Unrepaired lesions within the DNA can lead to genomic instability and potentially aid in the formation of diseases such as cancer. Some cancers possess ...
  • Thorsteinsdottir, Lilja (University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2020-03)
    Íslenski hesturinn er eini hestastofninn á Íslandi. Hestar voru fluttir hingað við landnám og hafa verið hreinræktaðir síðan. Vegna landfræðilegrar einangrunar er stofninn berskjaldaður fyrir mörgum sjúkdómsvöldum sem herja á hesta í öðrum löndum. ...
