  1. 1. Expectations and reality of sustainable stormwater management : A review of implementation of Nature-Based Solutions - A case study of Southern Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Katarzyna Zofia Dziubanii; [2024]
    Keywords : Nature-based solutions; green infrastructure; ecosystem services; planning process; spatial planning; urban planning; stormwater management; sustainability; climate change mitigation; Naturbaserade lösningar; grön infrastruktur; ekosystemtjänster; planeringsprocess; fysisk planering; stadsplanering; dagvattenhantering; hållbarhet; klimatförändringar;

    Abstract : The shrinking of permeable areas in favour of urban development is a phenomenon described in both scientific literature and policy documents. Changes in rainfall intensity and frequency following climate change are expected, but predicting the exact magnitude of these changes remains unclear. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evidence Based Canine Behaviour Interventions for aggression and fear/anxiety in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Marie Eleonor Doane; [2023]
    Keywords : canine behaviour problems; interventions; arousal; management; learning theory; behaviour counsellor;

    Abstract : Aggression and fear/anxiety are behaviour problems that dogs is Sweden experience and behaviour interventions are primarily conducted by behaviour counsellors. A systemic literature review was conducted to map the scientific literature available about the efficacy of behaviour problem intervention for canine aggression and fear/anxiety. READ MORE

  4. 3. How Venture Capital Could Use Large Language Models to Screen Sustainability Impact Startups

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Måns Vilhelm Tivenius; Karl-Gustav Elf; [2023]
    Keywords : Large Language Models; Venture Capital; Impact Investing; Prompt Engineering; GPT-4; ChatGPT; Impact; Sustainability; Artificial Intelligence; Startup success; Impact startup; Impact measurement; Screening; AI for good; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study investigates the potential of large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, to aid venture capitalists in the screening of startups that maximize sustainability impact. To determine the scope that maximizes impact for venture capitalists' and to identify effective screening criteria, the study utilized theoretical research and interviews. READ MORE

  5. 4. A Conjugate Residual Solver with Kernel Fusion for massive MIMO Detection

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Centrum för forskning om tillämpade intelligenta system (CAISR)

    Author : Ioannis Broumas; [2023]
    Keywords : MIMO; massive MIMO; GPU; CUDA; Software Defined Radio; SDR; MMSE; ZF; zero-forcing; parallel detection; iterative methods; conjugate residual; parallel computing; kernel fusion;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a comparison of a GPU implementation of the Conjugate Residual method as a sequence of generic library kernels against implementations ofthe method with custom kernels to expose the performance gains of a keyoptimization strategy, kernel fusion, for memory-bound operations which is to makeefficient reuse of the processed data. For massive MIMO the iterative solver is to be employed at the linear detection stageto overcome the computational bottleneck of the matrix inversion required in theequalization process, which is 𝒪(𝑛3) for direct solvers.

  6. 5. Are legal requirements enough forpreventing occupational accidents?

    University essay from KTH/Ergonomi

    Author : Christopher Eff; [2023]
    Keywords : Machinery directive; Systematic Work Environment Management; Swiss Cheese Model; HTO; Risk mitigating; Occupational Health and Safety;

    Abstract : The increasing number of occupational health and safety issues is a problem. Legislationsthat are anchored in European law, such as “machinery directive 2006/42/EC”, the “Use ofwork equipment 2009/104/EC” and the Swedish AFS 2001:1 (Systematic Work EnvironmentManagement) are defined but still lack the power to stop accidents/ incidents fromhappening.
