1. When is Electric Freight Cost Competitive? : Computational modeling and simulation of total cost of ownership for electric truck fleets
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för ekonomisk och industriell utvecklingAbstract : Battery electric trucks (BETs) offer environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon emissions and enhanced energy efficiency but have been challenged with economic viability compared to conventional internal combustion engine trucks (ICETs) caused by substantial acquisition costs, limited charging infrastructure, and concerns regarding range and payload capacity. Previous studies focus on TCO at the vehicle or policy level but overlook the system and firm-level impacts. READ MORE

2. Birds' Flight Range. : Sensitivity Analysis.
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskapAbstract : ’Flight’ is a program that uses flight mechanics to estimate the flight range of birds. This program, used by ornithologists, is only available for Windows OS. It requires manual imputation of body measurements and constants (one observation at a time) and this is time-consuming.

3. Discrepancy of sequences and error estimates for the quasi-Monte Carlo method
University essay from Karlstads universitetAbstract : We present the notions of uniform distribution and discrepancy of sequences contained in the unit interval, as well as an important application of discrepancy in numerical integration by way of the quasi-Monte Carlo method. Some fundamental (and other interesting) results with regards to these notions are presented, along with some detalied and instructive examples and comparisons (some of which not often provided by the literature).

5. Optimization under parameter uncertainties with application to product cost minimization
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikationAbstract : This report will look at optimization under parameters of uncertainties. It will describe the subject in its wider form, then two model examples will be studied, followed by an application to an ABB product. The Monte Carlo method will be described and scrutinised, with the quasi-Monte Carlo method being favoured for large problems. READ MORE
