  1. 1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Molly Boberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Flood Management; Climate Adaptation; Nature-Based Solutions NBS ; Urban Trees; Skeletal Soil; Hydrologic Modelling; MIKE; Översvämningshantering; Klimatanpassning; Naturbaserade lösningar; Stadsträd; Skelettjord; Hydrologisk modellering; MIKE;

    Abstract : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. READ MORE

  3. 2. Independent validation of a system for real-time localization of the prostate during motion tracking radiotherapy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Klara Stefansson; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Intrafractional prostate motion during external beam radiotherapy of prostate tumors has been reported as a limiting factor in accurate treatment delivery. Technology for real-time image-guided radiotherapy has been introduced for tracking and for compensating prostate motion during treatment and could allow for reduced target margins. READ MORE

  4. 3. 3D/VR - Data flow visualization

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Sudheer Sujay; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis delves into the realm of Virtual Reality (VR) to explore its potential for visualizing data flows in intricate systems. Focused on the transition from conventional 2D representations to immersive 3D experiences, the study employs Unity and Oculus Quest 2 for prototyping. READ MORE

  5. 4. Design of a 2-D Lattice Flower Constellation for Earth observation applying the twin satellite concept

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Julia Martín-Fuertes Brañas; [2023]
    Keywords : 2D Lattice Flower Constellation design; number of satellites; number of planes; revisit time; coverage; optimized constellation; target list; twin satellite concept; FreeFlyer; 2D Lattice Flower Constellation design; antal satelliter; antal plan; återbesökstid; täckning; optimerad konstellation; mållista; tvilling-satellit-koncept; FreeFlyer;

    Abstract : Events such as forest fires or floods are a danger to our Earth’s environment and the people living in it. The sooner they can be detected, the less damage they can cause. An idea arises: use satellites to monitor the Earth and relay information to prevention and rescue organizations in a very short time, regardless of accessibility from ground. READ MORE

  6. 5. Numerical Study on Acoustic Phenomena in Cavities for Aero-engine Applications

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

    Author : Eglantin Gjoni; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : For about seventy years, noise generated by grazing flow past a cavity has been thoroughly studied. Yet, a coherent theory that describes such phenomena is missing. Lately, this phenomena started to be investigated in bleeding systems of aero-engines. READ MORE
