  1. 36. An Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian Finite Element Method for Shock Wave Propagation: Validating Simulations of Underwater Explosions

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Author : Sebastian Sandström; [2021]
    Keywords : finite element; applied mathematics; computational mathematics; hydrocode; arbitrary lagrangian-eulerian; LS-DYNA; tillämpad matematik; beräkningsteknik; finita elementmetoden; hydrokod; arbitrary lagrangian-eulerian; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : Underwater explosions are often modeled with Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) Finite Element Methods. The objective of this thesis is to validate the simulation method, with respect to the propagating shock wave. A two-dimensional axisymmetric model of a spherical TNT charge submerged in water is simulated using LS-DYNA. READ MORE

    Abstract : In the past few decades, microwave technology has been playing a pivotal role in the medical field. This technique has paved the way for significant inventions for adapting from invasive to non-invasive methods. READ MORE

  4. 38. Ranking - Katalysatorn bakom Strategisk Prissättning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : William Ramshage; [2021]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The growing expansion of price comparison sites, where shops are compared and ranked in order of lowest prices, has contributed to reduced friction and transaction costs for consumers. Previous research in this field of study has primarily relied on examining the relationships between ranking and consumers’ demand for the resellers’ products. READ MORE

  5. 39. Empowerment for Whom? Evaluating Women's Empowerment under Indigenous Self-Governance in Oaxaca, Mexico

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Hugo De Geer Wikner; Klara Gullström; [2021]
    Keywords : Development; Governance; Gender Equality; Customary Law; Empowerment;

    Abstract : Recognising indigenous people's rights has been a priority for Latin American countries since the late 1990s. Yet, a legal recognition of their self-governance has been controversial as they are argued to contrast with liberal values of gender equality. READ MORE

  6. 40. The implications of a government shift on labor market outcomes : Measuring the causal effect of government control on unemployment rates in Swedish municipalities

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

    Author : Niclas Östgren; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this paper is to research if there is a causal effect on labor market outcomes in Swedish municipalities, depending on if there is a left-wing or right-wing rule. By grouping Swedish political parties into two coalitions, left-wing and right-wing, a sharp regression discontinuity design can be applied, where a seat majority in the municipal council shifts discontinuously at 50% of the voter share.
