  1. 1. Numerical modelling of high-speed railway transition zone

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Karl Norberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Railway geotechnics; Bridge; Ballastless track; Transition zone; High-speed railway; Finite element method; Track stiffness;

    Abstract : Transition zones are changes in the track structure, detected by an abrupt deviationin track stiffness and/or differential settlements. One inevitable transition zone is thebridge approach. This study has investigated in this transition zone, adapted for highspeed,ballastless track. READ MORE

  3. 2. Medicalizing Me Softly: An Autoethnography of Refusal

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Han Amm; [2022]
    Keywords : transmedicalism; truscum; transnormativity; nonbinary; autoethnography; refusal; liminality; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This autoethnographic study explores intra-community discursive boundary constructions around the category of transgender articulated by truscum trans men on Reddit. It does so through reflections on how the author negotiates the medical model of trans, his own gender identity, the medico-juridical interlock governing access to trans healthcare and trans livability, and tensions of closeness/distance to those they interview.

  4. 3. Modeling the Heat Flow Dynamics of a Houses Using Stochastic Differential Equations

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

    Author : Pablo Sabino Mayo Nardone; [2021]
    Keywords : Mathematical Model; thermal model; heat dynamics modelling; differential equations; space-state equation; grey-box modelling;

    Abstract : This research aims to explore new ways of assessing energy performance within housing units. The mainobjective of this work is to propose a heat dynamics model based on monitoring data, to contribute towardsan energy-efficient transition in the building sector. READ MORE

  5. 4. Design, implementation and evaluation of a daylight estimation tool using 3D city model data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Peter Nezval; [2021]
    Keywords : 3D city model; CityJSON; solar energy; free and open-source software; 3D feature extraction; solar urban planning; sustainable urban development; geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Solar energy is an important component of sustainable urban development. However, it is still not reaching its full potential due to several reasons. One of them is a lack of free tools based on open geodata capable of estimating solar energy (daylight) metrics on building features, e.g. READ MORE
