1. 1. A Captured and Divided Civil Society : A Study of Democracy and Civil Society in Central Eastern Europe

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Author : Ida Hedkvist; [2024]
   Keywords : democracy; democratic backsliding; civil society; polarization; pernicious polarization; civil society capture;

   Abstract : This paper investigates the interplay between pernicious polarization, autonomy of civil society - here called civil society capture, and liberal democracy in Central and Eastern Europe from 2006 to 2020. In the absence of prior time-series data on pernicious polarization and civil society capture, this study built and analysed a dataset of these variables across the region, testing six hypotheses.

3. 2. State of Health measuring of NiMH batteries using simple electronic components.

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Linus Classon; [2024]
   Keywords : SoH; NiMH; State of Health; Batteries;

   Abstract : The possibility of measuring the state of health of a NiMH battery without doing it in a lab is evaluated, the goal was to see if it was possible to perceive any differences between batteries of different states of health and whether it’s worth further exploring this solution in a more detailed manner. In order to try and extract and analyze the state of health of the batteries a series of tests consisting of discharging batteries at different lengths of times and different resistive loads were made, the voltage of the batteries being captured by a multimeter.

4. 3. Exploring potential E-fuel production pathways for maritime and aviation sectors in France : a techno-economic and environmental assessment

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Mathieu Minaud; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The aviation and maritime industries pose significant challenges for decarbonization, having increased activity in the past decade. One promising solution to limit emissions in these sectors is Electrofuels (E-fuel), derived from water electrolysis hydrogen and captured CO2 or nitrogen. READ MORE

5. 4. Wall-Resolved and Wall-Modelled LES for a NACA4412 Wing Profile in OpenFOAM

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Nikolaos Charisoudis; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The purpose of this study is to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulationfor an incompressible flow around an airfoil and investigate the aerodynamicproperties for different Reynolds numbers (400, 000 and 1, 000, 000) based on the chordlength, at the moderate angle of attack (AoA) of 5o . For this purpose a detailedevaluation of wall-resolved and wall-modelled large-eddy simulations (LES) wereconducted for the NACA4412 wing profile. READ MORE

6. 5. Exploring adaptation of self-supervised representation learning to histopathology images for liver cancer detection

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Markus Jonsson; [2024]
   Keywords : Self-supervised learning; Representation learning; Computer vision;

   Abstract : This thesis explores adapting self-supervised representation learning to visual domains beyond natural scenes, focusing on medical imaging. The research addresses the central question: "How can self-supervised representation learning be specifically adapted for detecting liver cancer in histopathology images?" The study utilizes the PAIP 2019 dataset for liver cancer segmentation and employs a self-supervised approach based on the VICReg method. READ MORE
