  1. 6. Being Present with the Sound of Shakuhachi : Finding Tools for Composing Through Improvisation by Using Non-linearity to Focus on Time and Timbre on the Shakuhachi

    University essay from Kungl. Musikhögskolan/Institutionen för folkmusik

    Author : Sakari Heikka; [2023]
    Keywords : shakuhachi; compositional methods; improvisation; Japan; timbre; non-linearity; micro-phenomenology; silence;

    Abstract : The main goal of this thesis was to develop tools and methods for creating new music for the Japanese bamboo flute shakuhachi. Shakuhachi is an end-blown bamboo flute, which has existed in Japan since the seventh century. READ MORE

  3. 7. A Change within a Change : A study of how a Scandinavian bank was challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic while moving operations abroad

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Oskar Lindberg; Hozan Arazo Dhaher; [2022]
    Keywords : Change management; emergent change; planned change; organisational change; multinational banking; organisational behaviour; COVID-19;

    Abstract : The world has been challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic since 2020. The pandemic affected all businesses, and the banking sector was no exception. Within this context, efficient change management (CM) is crucial to keep up with the changing business environment. Previous research has extensively covered the planned and emergent approaches to CM. READ MORE

  4. 8. III-V semiconductor waveguides for application in nonlinear optics.

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Andreas Charalampous; [2022]
    Keywords : InGaP; optical waveguides; integrated optics; quantum nonlinear optics; SHG; SPDC; InGaP; optiska vågledare; integrerad optik; icke-linjär kvantoptik; SHG; SPDC;

    Abstract : This thesis presents studies on III-V semiconductor waveguides with particular emphasis on second-order optical nonlinearity. The nonlinear processes that were investigated in this thesis are the Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) and the Spontaneous Parametric Down-Conversion (SPDC). READ MORE

  5. 9. Nonlinear mode coupling and parametric amplification with superconducting kinetic inductance

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Daniele Lopriore; [2022]
    Keywords : Quantum technology; microwave engineering; nanofabrication; parametric amplifiers; multimode entanglement; kinetic inductance; Kvantteknologi; mikrovågsteknik; nanotillverkning; parametriska förstärkare; multimodentrassling; kinetisk induktans;

    Abstract : We investigate the resonant characteristics of superconducting meandering nanowires to design a nonlinear kinetic inductance traveling-wave parametric amplifier. The devices are patterned out of 15 nm thick NbTiN films. They consist of a coplanar waveguide, that shrinks into 100 nm wide meandering nanowires. READ MORE

  6. 10. Semantic segmentation of off-road scenery on embedded hardware using transfer learning

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Filip Elander; [2021]
    Keywords : Semantic Segmentation; forestry navigation; Deep Neural Network; autonomous navigation; residual neural network; Convolutional neural network; Semantisk Segmentering; Autonom Terrängnavigering; Residuala Nätverk; Konvolutionellt Neuralt Nätverk; Autonom navigering;

    Abstract : Real-time semantic scene understanding is a challenging computer vision task for autonomous vehicles. A limited amount of research has been done regarding forestry and off-road scene understanding, as the industry focuses on urban and on-road applications. READ MORE
