  1. 16. Declining abundance and shifting distribution for Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, in the western Antarctic Peninsula

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologi

    Author : Kerstin Holmström; [2020]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, a polar ocean specialist, thrives in the Antarctic severe physical conditions. The krill life cycle consists of strategies that have enabled and supported the species’ dominance of the Antarctic Ocean. Sea Ice extent and duration creates condition that are crucial for survival of the Furcilia larvae. READ MORE

  3. 17. China in Africa: A Study of Chinese Leadership in the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC)

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för kultur och samhälle (KS)

    Author : Greta Simonaviciute; [2020]
    Keywords : China; Africa; FOCAC; Leadership;

    Abstract : The leadership of powerful states in processes of institutional bargaining is significant, though still widely ignored subject in the field of International Relations (IR). Particularly, China’s active involvement and, in fact, leadership in the regime formation has drawn wide attention from scholars and policy analysts alike. READ MORE

  4. 18. Utilizing Privately Owned Flexibilities in the German Distribution System : Technical and Regulatory Framework

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

    Author : Nahal Tamadon; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This Master’s thesis project aims to define the technical and regulatory framework of asystem flexibility service utilizing distributed flexibilities connected to the low-voltage (LV)level. The flexibility service outlined here is local balancing, with the purpose of increasing theload-generation balance in LV networks using thermostatically controlled loads and ElectricalEnergy Storage (EES) devices.

  5. 19. Machine learning multicriteria optimization in radiation therapy treatment planning

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Tianfang Zhang; [2019]
    Keywords : Radiation therapy; automated planning; machine learning; multicriteria optimization; dose mimicking; dose--volume criteria; Gaussian mixture model; expectation--maximization; exponential tilting; Strålterapi; automatisk planering; maskininlärning; flermålsoptimering; dosåterskapande; dos--volym-kriterier; gaussisk blandningsmodell; förväntning--maximering; exponentiell lutning;

    Abstract : In radiation therapy treatment planning, recent works have used machine learning based on historically delivered plans to automate the process of producing clinically acceptable plans. Compared to traditional approaches such as repeated weighted-sum optimization or multicriteria optimization (MCO), automated planning methods have, in general, the benefits of low computational times and minimal user interaction, but on the other hand lack the flexibility associated with general-purpose frameworks such as MCO.

  6. 20. Serviceability assessment of footbridges when subjected to vibrations induced by running pedestrians

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Javier Garmendia Purroy; [2017]
    Keywords : Footbridge; Running; Jogging; Load; Vibrations; Structural; Dynamics; Pedestrian footbridge interaction; Serviceability; Assessment; Gångbro; Löpning; Last; Vibrationer; Strukturdynamik; Bruksgränstillstånd; Bedömning;

    Abstract : Vibration serviceability in the design of footbridges is gathering enormous prominence as comfort restrictions get enhanced. Comfort verifications are often becoming critical when considering human induced dynamic loading on lightweight structures, which are increasing in slenderness and flexibility. READ MORE
