  1. 1. Process parameter optimisation for Waspaloy using Laser-Directed Energy Deposition with Powder

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Johannes Lövhall; [2024]
    Keywords : Process parameter optimisation; Waspaloy; Laser-Directed Energy Deposition with Powder;

    Abstract : Material utilisation is of importance in the manufacturing industry formaking the most of each material, minimising waste and increasing cost-effectiveness. In this thesis, samples of Waspaloy built with the method of L-DED-P has been analysed in order to investigate how process pa-rameters influence the build quality and geometrical accuracy in as-builtobjects.

  3. 2. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems

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

    Author : Thomas Kjellberg Jensen; [2024]
    Keywords : neuromorphic computing; nanowire; molecular dye; DASA photoswitch; OBIC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.

  4. 3. An Environmental and Health Benefit and Cost analysis of Renewable Energy in Nigeria : A comparison between the investment in solar energy plant and hydropower plant

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för kultur och samhälle

    Author : Ruth Ashibuogwu; [2024]
    Keywords : Environment; Health; Solar Energy and Hydropower;

    Abstract : This study analyses the environmental and health benefits associated with the use of renewable energy sources, focusing on the costs and savings involved. The research employs a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis approach, comparing the costs associated with generating energy from a 10 megawatts solar energy power plant versus a 10 megawatt hydropower plant.

  5. 4. Buildings in the Digital Era : An Explorative Study of Digital Twins in the Built Environment

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Siw Kristine Kästel; Joanna Wallén; [2024]
    Keywords : Digital Twin DT ; Arcitecture; Engineering and Construction AEC industry; Digitization; Building Information Modeling BIM ; Facility Management FM ; Operation Management O M ; Digital Tvilling; Fastighetsbranschen; Fastighetsförvaltning; Byggnadsinformationsmodeller BIM ;

    Abstract : In recent years, digital twins (DT) have gained traction in enhancing operation and maintenance procedures across various industrial sectors, such as manufacturing, energy, and aerospace. Yet their utilization remains more limited in the built environment. READ MORE

  6. 5. Diving Deep: Seabird foraging tactics and local prey field

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Elin Andersson Sjöholm; [2024]
    Keywords : Common Guillemot; Uria aalge; Optimal Foraging theory; Hydroacoustic data; resource selection;

    Abstract : Foragers in patchy environments need to decide what patches to use and how to allocate their time between them. Optimal foraging theory describes these choices through the relationship between energy expenditure and energy gain. READ MORE
