  1. 21. Variable executive compensation linked to ESG goals: evidence from the Nordics

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

    Author : Oscar Pasarin Borrega; [2023]
    Keywords : Executive compensation; Firm performance; Incentive pay; ESG Pay; ESG metrics;

    Abstract : The practice of linking executive compensation to the performance on environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors, commonly referred to as ESG Pay, remains an underexplored issue in academic literature. This study focuses on the relationship between ESG Pay, financial performance and ESG performance in the Nordic region. READ MORE

  3. 22. Applying spatially and temporally adaptive techniques for faster DEM-based snow simulation

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Simon Andreasson; Linus Östergaard; [2023]
    Keywords : Real-time simulation; DEM; GPU; Games; Computer graphics; Realtidssimulering; DEM; GPU; Spel; Datorgrafik;

    Abstract : Background. Physically-based snow simulation is computationally expensive and not yet applicable to real-time applications. Some of the prime factors for this cost are the complex physics, the large number of particles, and the small time step required for a high-quality and stable simulation. READ MORE

  4. 23. The Haunting of Hill House: The Heterosexual Horror of the Home

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Engelska institutionen

    Author : Fanny Berg; [2023]

  5. 24. Optimization-Based Path Planning For Indoor UAVs in an Autonomous Exploration Framework

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

    Author : Marco Cella; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimal Path Planning; B-Splines; Autonomous Exploration; Indoor UAV; Crisis and Disaster Management; Trajectory Estimation; SITL; Optimal Banplanering; B-Splines; Autonom Utforskning; Inomhus-UAV; Kris- och Katastrofhantering; Uppskattning av Banor; SITL;

    Abstract : Exploration is a fundamental problem in robotics that requires robots to navigate through unknown environments to autonomously gather information about their surroundings while executing collision-free paths. In this project, we propose a method for producing smooth paths during the exploration process in indoor environments using UAVs to improve battery efficiency and enhance the quality of pose estimation.

  6. 25. Finding stars that are likely to be from accreted satellite galaxies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Helena Cronstedt; [2023]
    Keywords : galaxy mergers; merger debris; velocity space; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The Milky Way galaxy has through its lifetime merged with several smaller galaxies in its surroundings. Merger events like these play an important role in the formation of galaxies and are therefore of great interest to better our understanding of galaxy formation. READ MORE
