1. 1. Insights Into Wind Profile Characteristics in the Arctic Marine Boundary Layer

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

   Author : Charlotte Sophie Gausa; [2024]
   Keywords : Arctic; wind profile power law; MOST; boundary layer; low level jets; sea ice; vindprofil; Arktis; gränsskikt; vindenergi; låghöjdsvindar; havsis;

   Abstract : The atmospheric boundary layer in the Arctic is essential for the understanding of climate change and improving regional weather prediction. The aim of this study is to investigate to which degree wind speed profiles retrieved in the Arctic agree with well known wind profile concepts and understand which local impact factors influence the wind speed profile.

3. 2. Juice/JDC ion measurement perturbations caused by spacecraft charging in the solar wind and Earth’s magnetosheath

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Derek van Winden; [2024]
   Keywords : Juice; Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer; JDC; Jovian plasma Dynamics and Composition analyzer; Particle Environment Package; PEP; Jupiter; Ganymede; Callisto; Europa; solar wind; magnetosheath; spacecraft charging; Spacecraft Plasma Interaction Software; SPIS; charging; plasma; measurement perturbations; perturbation; distortion; particle detector; Institutet för Rymdfysik; IRF; Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies; DIAS; European Space Agency; ESA;

   Abstract :  In July 2031, a new chapter in the exploration of the Jovian system will begin with the arrival of the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) at Jupiter. Launched on April 14 2024 as part of ESA’s Cosmic Vision programme, the mission aims to study Jupiter and its icy Galilean moons Callisto, Europa, and Ganymede. READ MORE

4. 3. Optimering av flyghastighet för flygplan

   University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

   Author : Louise Larsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Aircraft flight speed; flight operations; speed optimization; Cost Index; ECON speed; Flyghastighet; flygverksamhet; hastighetsoptimering; kostindex; ekonomisk hastighet;

   Abstract : Optimization of flight operations is a way to reduce the impact of aviation on the environment and make the use of airspace more effective. Reductions in fuel consumption and flight time are further desired by airlines to minimize operational costs. READ MORE

5. 4. Tools and Challenges in Evaluating Control Surface Airworthiness for a Blended-Wing-Body UAV

   University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

   Author : Anton Åkesson; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : For transport aeroplanes the Blended-Wing-Body (BWB) configuration shows promise in improving aerodynamic efficiency. The Green Raven project strives to demonstrate hydrogen fuel-cell-electric propulsion on a 4 m wingspan BWB. READ MORE

6. 5. Segmenting cruise passengers based on their spatio-temporal similarity : an approach utilising dynamic time warping

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kulturgeografiska institutionen

   Author : Pauline Borg; [2023]
   Keywords : cruise tourism; dynamic time warping; cluster analysis; overcrowding; tourist mobility; kryssningsturism; dynamic time warping; klusteranalys; trängsel; turistmobilitet;

   Abstract : The present thesis utilises dynamic time warping and cluster analysis with the aim of discovering different touristic profiles. GPS data of cruise passengers intra-destination movement at the destination of Visby, Gotland, was used in the analysis. READ MORE
