  1. 1. BALLOT STRUCTURE, DISTRICT MAGNITUDE AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY STRINGENCY. A Quantitative Study of OECD Countries

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Thi Thu Le; [2024-01-18]
    Keywords : ballot structure; open-list proportional representation; environmental policy; personal vote; district magnitude;

    Abstract : The role of the electoral rules, and the ballot structure more specifically, in determining environmental policy outcomes has received minimal attention in the literature. This paper contributes to this gap by analyzing the environmental policy consequences in proportional representation (PR) systems with different ballot designs. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of Injury Predictors for Rat Neuro Trauma

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Rosetta Maglio; [2024]
    Keywords : Finite element method; Rat brain traumatic brain injury; Rat brain finite element model; Strain; Strain rate; Product of strain and strain rate; Rotational direction; Rotational duration; Injury prediction; Finita elementmetoden; Råtthjärnans finita elementmodell; Belastning; Belastningshastighet; Produkten av belastning och belastningshastighet; Rotationsriktning; Rotationstid; Skadeförutsägelse;

    Abstract : A traumatic brain injury is usually caused by a direct impact to the head and is a common cause of disability and death all around the world. The most effective method to predict brain injury today, is to use a finite element head model. READ MORE

  4. 3. Insights Into Wind Profile Characteristics in the Arctic Marine Boundary Layer

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Charlotte Sophie Gausa; [2024]
    Keywords : Arctic; wind profile power law; MOST; boundary layer; low level jets; sea ice; vindprofil; Arktis; gränsskikt; vindenergi; låghöjdsvindar; havsis;

    Abstract : The atmospheric boundary layer in the Arctic is essential for the understanding of climate change and improving regional weather prediction. The aim of this study is to investigate to which degree wind speed profiles retrieved in the Arctic agree with well known wind profile concepts and understand which local impact factors influence the wind speed profile.

  5. 4. Gender Equality in the English Classroom : Teachers’ Attitudes Toward Incorporating Gender Equality in Their Teaching of Upper Secondary School English

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för utbildning, kultur och kommunikation

    Author : Johanna Ly; [2024]
    Keywords : Teachers; upper secondary school; EFL; group work; cooperative learning;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to attain a deeper understanding of how English teachers approach the incorporation of gender equality in their English teaching, and the challenges and successes encountered in their pedagogical method. The study takes a qualitative approach, where the research examines the attitudes, teaching strategies and practical experiences of English teachers through semi-structured interviews. READ MORE

  6. 5. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems

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

    Author : Thomas Kjellberg Jensen; [2024]
    Keywords : neuromorphic computing; nanowire; molecular dye; DASA photoswitch; OBIC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.
