    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Jörgen Smit; Thomas Östervall; [2023]
    Keywords : Sunshade Project; L1; Solar sailing;

    Abstract : This study evaluates the feasibility of reusing lightweight solar sails in order to transport 1.69 * 10^6 sunshades, made out of occulting membranes with free-standing SiO2 nanotube films, to the adjusted sun-Earth Lagrange point, L1'. READ MORE

  3. 2. Decarbonisation of the commercial road transport : The role of European Policy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi

    Author : Petr Hannsmann; [2023]
    Keywords : Commercial road transport; European policy; decarbonisation; multi-level perspective; geography of sustainability transition; mission-oriented policies; policy implementation process; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Following the Paris agreement of 2015, the latest reports of the IPCC, exacerbated by the lingering impacts of the Covid crisis and the recent war of aggression of Russia on Ukraine, the European Union is proposing an ambitious set of rules and regulations aimed at making Europe the first climate neutral continent by 2050. As a part of this so-called European Green Deal, the Fit for 55 package was introduced to align the existing and proposed legislature to ensure at least 55% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

  4. 3. Integration of public transport planning and spatial planning in Norrköping : Collaboration for achieving the same vision but with different strategies

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema teknik och social förändring

    Author : Simon Georgson; [2023]
    Keywords : Integration planning; Public transport planning; Spatial planning; Transit-Oriented Development; Collaboration;

    Abstract : The integration of public transport planning and spatial planning has become an internationally well-known phenomenon and is seen by planners as a fundamental prerequisite for getting more people to travel sustainably, and thus reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases from the transport sector. The aim is to design the built environment in such a way that sustainable travel is promoted. READ MORE

  5. 4. Cooperation In Fragmentation: Factors Influencing the Willingness of Firms to Cooperate in Fragmented Industries

  6. 5. Radiation Shielding Simulations for Small Satellites on Geostationary Transfer Orbit

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Anton Fetzer; [2022]
    Keywords : GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; Radiation Shielding; Geant4; Radiation Belts; GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; säteilysuojaus; Geant4; säteilyvyöhyke;

    Abstract : The emergence of small and affordable satellites has led to rapid growth in the number of launched satellites over the past two decades. To save costs, small satellites often use mass-produced electronic components not explicitly designed for the radiation environment of space, which reduces reliability and makes them unsuitable for higher orbits.
