  1. 1. The visibility of stellar transients in the Galactic Centre

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Astrofysik

    Author : Jonathan Ström; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A semi-analytical simulation was developed to evaluate the K-band magnitudes of Red Giants [0.96 - 1.02 M⊙] orbiting the supermassive black hole in the galactic centre. The model assumed star formation between 10-12 Gyrs ago and by following the IMF and applying a random age condition, a stellar population was created. READ MORE

  3. 2. Allocating climate impacts to facility management services : A case study of Riksbyggen

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Kelly Brandt; Julia Waldhagen; [2021]
    Keywords : Facility management services; GHG emissions; climate modelling; allocation;

    Abstract : With the acceleration of climate change, mitigating climate impacts in all aspects of society is key to ensuring a sustainable development. The building sector is responsible for a major share of global carbon emissions, and in Sweden about a fifth of national greenhouse gas emissions derive from the different stages of building operations.

  4. 3. CFD Simulation of Particles in Pipe Flow and Mixing Tank

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Aljaz Janic; [2020]
    Keywords : Multiphase flow; particles; TetraPak; mixing tank; pipe flow;

    Abstract : This project aimed to investigate the capability of the STAR CCM+ software when predicting the flow with particles using Lagrangian Particle Tracking and Discrete Element Method. The first part pertained to rectangular channel flow, with ratio between height of the channel and particle diameter (2h/Dp ) of 15. READ MORE

  5. 4. Galactic Dynamics and the spread of Galactic Civilisations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Markus Strickert; [2020]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Abstract The idea of the spread of life through the galaxy is, in most minds, considered science fiction. Yet, scientists argue that most galaxies have had more than enough time for civilisation development and space travel. READ MORE

  6. 5. Ground Based Attitude Determination Using a SWIR Star Tracker

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Karl Gudmundson; [2019]
    Keywords : Star Tracking; Celestial Navigation; Navigation Systems; Attitude; Orientation; SWIR; MEKF;

    Abstract : This work investigates the possibility of obtaining attitude estimates by capturing images of stars using a SWIR camera. Today, many autonomous systems rely on the measurements from a GPS to obtain accurate position and attitude estimates. READ MORE
