An analytical-numerical study of dynamic stability of an axially moving elastic web
(Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2015)
This paper is devoted to a dynamic stability analysis of an axially moving
elastic web, modelled as a panel (a plate undergoing cylindrical deformation).
The results are directly applicable also to the travelling beam. ...

Analysis and Applications of Electronic Structure in Gold and Silver Nanoclusters
(Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2019)
Gold and silver nanoclusters are understood as atomically precise particles that consist of a metal core of more than 2 atoms that are usually protected and stabilized by a monolayer of organic molecules; these molecules ...
Analysis of Spatial Point Patterns with Anomalies, Covariates and Intractable Likelihoods
(Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2022)
Spatial point patterns arise in a number of applications from different disciplines. They represent locations of objects or events of interest. Such data is analysed and modelled using point process statistics. This work ...

Application of Direct Laser Writing for the Fabrication of Superconducting Tunnel Junctions and Phononic Crystal Structures
(Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2021)
Phononic crystals (PnC) are periodic structures analogous to the more common photonic crystals. Instead of a periodic dielectric constant they have a periodic elasticity and density, and thus they alter the flow of vibrational ...
