  1. 1. Effekter av markstruktur på tryckutbredning och packningsbenägenhet i åkermark : en jämförande fältstudie mellan konventionellt jordbearbetad åkermark och permanent bevuxen åkermark

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Gabriel Thor; [2022]
    Keywords : markpackning; hållfasthet; markstruktur; marktextur; direktsådd; reducerad jordbearbetning;

    Abstract : Att gårdar blir större är en tydlig trend inom det svenska lantbruket. Med det följer även en större efterfrågan på större maskiner och redskap. Denna rationalisering medför en ökad risk för att åkermarken blir kraftigt packad och därigenom skadad, vilket på sikt kan leda till försämrad bördighet. READ MORE

  3. 2. The assessment of ecosystem services provided by forest edge effects on fields in a fragmented Swedish agricultural landscape : a methodological framework

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Author : Juliette Nguyen; [2022]
    Keywords : carbon sequestration; cropping systems; DSSAT; ecosystem services; edge effect; food production; landscape diversification; landscape fragmentation; soil heterogeneity; soil organic carbon; spatial variability; total nitrogen; yield;

    Abstract : Agricultural expansion, prompted by increasing global food demand, has fragmented, simplified, and homogenized the landscape in the last decades. The resilience and sustainability of croplands are at stake, resulting in a hight vulnerability to climate change, and having major impacts on environmental protection, biodiversity preservation and food security.

  5. 4. Probabilistic Assessment of Pile Drivability in Swedish Soils

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : MAEDEH ALINEJAD KORDMAHALLEH; [2020]
    Keywords : Pile refusal; Monte Carlo method; probabilistic model; boulder.;

    Abstract : Site investigations are often performed prior to the design of pile foundations with the aim to collect data regarding soil properties including boulder content. The obtained data is typically limited due to non-homogeneous characteristic of the soil. READ MORE

  6. 5. Terrain machine learning : A predictive method for estimating terrain model parameters using simulated sensors, vehicle and terrain

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Viktor Wiberg; [2018]
    Keywords : machine learning; terrain-vehicle interaction; discrete element method; multivariate statistics; terrain trafficability;

    Abstract : Predicting terrain trafficability of deformable terrain is a difficult task with applications in e.g, forestry, agriculture, exploratory missions. The currently used techniques are neither practical, efficient, nor sufficiently accurate and inadequate for certain soil types. READ MORE
