  1. 6. Unlocking lost potentials : Reviving water in Falun as a living and interweaved spine

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Filip Wadsten; [2023]
    Keywords : urban planning; urban design; Falun; polluted water; sediment challenges; stormwater management; flooding management; green structure; movement network; new nodes;

    Abstract : The city of Falun has a rich history of mining with the open mine, Stora Stöten, centrally located in the city and nowadays a well-known world heritage tourist attraction. The mine is the main reason that Falun even exists. READ MORE

  3. 7. Reconstructing Past Climate by Using XRF and Loss of Ignition on Loess from Adventdalen, Svalbard : Rekonstruktion av tidigare klimat genom attanvända XRF analys och antändningsförlust på lössavlagringar från Adventdalen, Svalbard

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Albin Andreasson; Noa Lind; [2023]
    Keywords : Svalbard; loess soil; XRF; weathering; climate change;

    Abstract : By analyzing the texture, composition and chemical composition of loess soils, the reconstruction ofpast climate regimes is enabled, which can improve our understanding of current and future climatechange. Properties such as grain size and composition, mineralogy, organic matter and chemicalcomposition can provide information about which environmental factors were present during thedeposition of the sediment, which can lead to a detailed picture of the climate history of a site.

  4. 8. Particle-Oriented Bounding Box Skeletal Animation in real-time applications

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Simon Strand; Karlos Napa Häger; [2023]
    Keywords : Skeletal Animation; Particle; Velocity; Collision;

    Abstract : Background. Skeletal animation is a technique used for displaying animated movement that uses bones in a hierarchy to get a structure; these bones are transformed based on their parent bones. Vertices in a mesh are connected to one or more bones with a weight, and the vertices will move based on the bone transformation, creating an animation. READ MORE

  5. 9. Evaluation of in-situ technology performance and decision analysis by combining economic and environmental impact analysis for a case study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Elham Tamadonyazdian; [2023]
    Keywords : Stabilization; Dredging; Solidification; Cement mixtures; Binders; In-situ technology; Environmental impact categories; Life cycle assessment LCA ; Economic analysis; Life cycle costing LCC ; Global Warming Potential GWP ; Acidification Potential AP ; Eutrophication Potential EP ; Ozone Layer Depletion Potential ODP ; Single-Point Rate SPR .; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the contemporary global context, the global focus on reducing environmental impacts in any formats has intensified. This study intends to assess the environmental impacts and life cycle costs associated with the A1-A5 stages (production and construction stages) of the Köping Port project and eight additional proposed scenarios.

  6. 10. Comparing chemical biodegradation assessed in water-sediment suspensions

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för miljövetenskap

    Author : Kangli Lin; [2023]
    Keywords : water- sediment suspensions; OECD 309; biodegradation; sediment concentrations; bacterial cell count;

    Abstract : Many chemicals are released into surface water and biodegradation is one important mechanismto remove the contaminants. Their actual concentrations in water depend on their persistence.The OECD 309 test is the most recognized method to assess the persistence of chemicals in theaquatic environment. READ MORE
