  1. 1. Local traversability assessment in an unmanned ground vehicle : An analysis of mobility on the UGV Husky

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

    Author : Kidus Y. Getahun; [2023]
    Keywords : UGV; Husky; Robotics Operating System; Traversability Estimation; Vehicle Dynamics; Elevation Mapping; UGV; Husky; Framkomlighets Bedömning; Fordonsdynamik;

    Abstract : This thesis project aims to learn and understand more about implementing a path planner to the unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), UGV Husky, specifically its traversability algorithm, and investigate how it could be further improved. A surrounding grid is generated around the UGV where each cell contains information connected to its traversability. READ MORE

  3. 2. Off-farm income and technical efficiency of smallholder farmers in Ethiopia : a stochastic frontier analysis

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Getahun Gemechu Abebe; [2014]
    Keywords : Cobb-Douglas; maximum likelihood estimation; off-farm income; smallholder farmers; technical efficiency;

    Abstract : As in most developing countries, agricultural production in Ethiopia is dominated by subsistence-based smallholder farmers, whose production and incomes from the sector are constrained by socio-economic, institutional, resource and environmental factors. These factors generally attribute for lower productivity of the sector, which in turn forces farmers to participate in off-farm activities in order to diversify their sources of income. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of process based model 3-PG for simulation of net primary production of Picea abies in northern and southern regions of Sweden under climate change

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Gizachew Tarekegn Getahun; [2012]
    Keywords : 3-PG model; climate change; model evaluation; process based model; Heureka StandWise; Norway spruce; NPP;

    Abstract : The results of this evaluation reveal good performance of 3-PG and seems reasonable to use it for simulation of net primary production in Sweden. Subsequently,the NPP of Picea abies was simulated using 3-PG for 110 years in northern and southern Sweden under climate change. READ MORE
