  1. 1. Activity Location Assignment Comparison Using Geospatial Landuse and Building Data in MATSim : A Multi-modal Transport Case Study of Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : YU GAO; [2023]
    Keywords : Agent-based model; MATSim; Raster Data; Shapefile Data; OSM; GTFS;

    Abstract : Transport simulation models play a crucial role in transportation planning, design, and operations, allowing for the replication of various scenarios through the incorporation of real-world data and parameters. Recently, agent-based transport models have gained prominence for their ability to simulate intricate metropolitan transport systems. READ MORE

  3. 2. A spatially explicit model of segregation dynamics : Comparing the Schelling and the Sakoda model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutet för analytisk sociologi, IAS

    Author : Philip Öberg; [2023]
    Keywords : residential segregation; agent-based modeling ABM ; social simulation; multi-dimensional measurement; multi-scale measurement;

    Abstract : The scientific consensus has for long been that residential segregation is best conceived of as a multidimensional phenomenon that can exist on several geographical scales (Massey & Denton, 1988; Lee et al., 2008; Reardon & O’Sullivan, 2004; Reardon et al., 2008). READ MORE

  4. 3. The User Needs Of Agent-Based Modelling Experts : What Information Architecture reveals about ABM frameworks

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : Bertilla Fabris; [2023]
    Keywords : Agent-based Modelling; ABM; Usability; Information Architecture; Computer and Information Science; ABSS; Agent-based Social Simulation; Agent Based Modelling; Agent-Based Modeling; Agent Based Modeling;

    Abstract : Present-day Agent Based Modelling is used to simulate complex systems in which agents are explicitly heterogeneous. Researchers within the field of ABM have a set of tools at their disposal, yet little is known about the usability and learnability of these systems. READ MORE

  5. 4. Does irrigation data matter in life cycle assessments?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Author : Olof Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Agent-Based Life cycle assessment; Arable grass rotation; Biofuel; Irrigation; Sensitivity analysis; Water footprint; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Biofuels are seen as a key substitute for fossil fuels and an essential tool for mitigating climate change. A sensitivity analysis was conducted on the AB-LCA (agent-based life cycle assessment) made by Raül López i Losada and his research team. READ MORE

  6. 5. Auctions for a Brighter Future - Using an Agent-Based Model to Simulate Auctions of Solar PV in Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi med statistik

    Author : Björn Danielsson; Fredrik Özaras; [2022-07-07]
    Keywords : RES Auctions; Solar PV; Sustainability; Climate Change; Renewable Energy; Environmental Economics; Agent-based Modeling; Auction simulation; Sweden;

    Abstract : Global warming is one of the most pressing threats to humanity of our time. One of the areas where transitioning towards sustainability is most urgent is in the energy sector. In this thesis, the implementation of an auction-based subsidy scheme for solar photovoltaics (PV) in Sweden is modeled and analyzed. READ MORE
