  1. 1. Democratization of Intelligence? Comparing Vietnam and Ukraine

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Björn Erik Almroth; [2023]
    Keywords : Covert intervention; Vietnam War; Russia-Ukraine War; implausible deniability; democratization of intelligence; Law and Political Science;

    Abstract : This study explores how a contemporary systemic shift regarding secrecy and intelligence is affecting the strategic performance of states engaged in overt or covert intervention. These changes are conceptualized by researchers as “implausible deniability”, “delayed disclosure” and “the democratization of intelligence” and their significance are applied to limited-war theory with a theoretical focus on acknowledgment and open secrets.

  3. 2. The Paradigm Shift for Substations Technology within Wind Power Applications from Onshore to Floating

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

    Author : Ahmad Talaat Hifzy; [2023]
    Keywords : Floating; offshore; substation; transformer; GIS; equipment; high-voltage; fatigue; Flytande; havsbaserad; station; transformator; GIS; utrustning; högspänning; utmattning;

    Abstract : Floating wind turbines are attracting more attention as more than three-quarters of the total offshore technical potential is located in deep water, leading to a growing trend in floating wind farm projects. Consequently, it becomes necessary to develop Floating Offshore Substation (FOSS) to step up voltage and efficiently transmit power to the shore with minimal losses. READ MORE

  4. 3. Scaling up social enterprises to tackle environmental problems : A study exploring scale-up challenges, solutions, and opportunities of social enterprises tackling environmental problems

    University essay from

    Author : Karel Svoboda; Ahmed Naqvi; [2023]
    Keywords : social entrepreneurship; social enterprise; scaling up; environmental problems; scale up challenges; scale up solutions; scale up opportunities;

    Abstract : AbstractBackground: Among the biggest threats to mankind are various environmental problems which have been mainly triggered by human interference with the planet. There have been various ineffective efforts to mitigate these detrimental effects. READ MORE

  5. 4. Who is Addressing the Deficiency in the Literature on the Prosperous Development of Outer Space? : A comparative approach to the interconnected issue of the absence of a space power theory, and the controversy surrounding the definition and delimitation of outer space.

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för statsvetenskap (ST)

    Author : Linea Reed; [2023]
    Keywords : Air power theory; sea power theory; space power theory; outer space; definition; delimitation; spatial approach; functional approach; political approach; Kármán Line; UN; UNOOSA; COPUOS; Outer Space Treaty; EU; EUSPA; ESA; EDA; NATO; strategy; security; defense.;

    Abstract : As outer space becomes more commercialized, humans have invested more time and efforts into the use and exploration of the outer space domain. Captured by the display of opportunities, space is becoming increasingly overcrowded. READ MORE

  6. 5. Extended Kalman Filter as Observer for a Hydrofoiling Watercraft : Modelling of a new hydrofoiling concept, based on the Spherical Inverted Pendulum Model

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

    Author : Adam Thålin; [2022]
    Keywords : Extended Kalman Filter; Hydrofoiling; Spherical Inverted Pendulum; Sensor Fusion; Simulink; Bärplan; Extended Kalman Filter; Farkostteknik; Inverterad Pendel; Sensorfusion; Sex frihetsgrader; Simulink;

    Abstract : Hydrofoiling in general has the potential to revolutionize watercraft in the future since it allows smoother and faster transport on water with less energy consumption than traditional planning hulls. Even if the concept of hydrofoiling has been around since the last century, development in control theory and material science together with increased computing power has led to a growing interest for the technology.
