   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

   Author : Marcus Mattsson; Marcus Lyckhage; [2023-07-04]
   Keywords : Insider Trading; Abnormal Return; Information Asymmetry; Outside Investors; Investment Strategy; Insider Positions;

   Abstract : Historically, investors have been searching for strategies to maximize performance in the stock market. It has been shown that corporate insiders can earn abnormal returns by trading in their own companies as they possess superior information and, to a certain degree, market timing ability. READ MORE

3. 2. Initial Orbit Determination of Resident Space Objects From A Passive Optical Imaging System: : Application to Space Situational Awareness

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Jessica McKenna; [2023]
   Keywords : Space Situational Awareness; Space Science; Angles-Only Initial Orbit Determination;

   Abstract : The probability of satellite collisions and disintegrations cluttering the near-Earth orbital environmentis ever-growing. This is especially true for the congested Low Earth Orbit (LEO) regime; once a critical density of objects is reached, a collisional cascading is projected to generate runaway growth of theorbital population.

5. 4. Measuring Sprint Speed with Ultra-wideband Technology

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

   Author : Johannes Arenander; [2023]
   Keywords : Speed; Sprint; Ranging; Ultra-wideband; Hastighet; Sprint; Distansmätning; Ultrabredband;

   Abstract : Sprinting can be an important ability in sports, and there are many methods for measuring sprint performance. Two common methods are hand-held timing and fully automatic timing systems. However, hand-held timing is inaccurate due to reaction time, and fully automatic timing can be impractical since it involves complex equipment. READ MORE

6. 5. Design and Construction of an Autonomous Sentry Turret Utilising Computer Vision

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)
