  1. 1. Oligolectic bee species. An understudied group in Global Change impacts?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Monika Böttcher; [2024-03-19]
    Keywords : Solitary bee; global change; oligolecty; red list; taxonomy;

    Abstract : Global change is considered the primary cause of the decline in bees worldwide, posing a significant threat to crucial pollination services they provide, carrying negative economic and ecological implications. Despite the extensive research conducted on the responses of bee communities to anthropogenic impacts, the focus has predominantly been on commercially interesting bees. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of Injury Predictors for Rat Neuro Trauma

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Rosetta Maglio; [2024]
    Keywords : Finite element method; Rat brain traumatic brain injury; Rat brain finite element model; Strain; Strain rate; Product of strain and strain rate; Rotational direction; Rotational duration; Injury prediction; Finita elementmetoden; Råtthjärnans finita elementmodell; Belastning; Belastningshastighet; Produkten av belastning och belastningshastighet; Rotationsriktning; Rotationstid; Skadeförutsägelse;

    Abstract : A traumatic brain injury is usually caused by a direct impact to the head and is a common cause of disability and death all around the world. The most effective method to predict brain injury today, is to use a finite element head model. READ MORE

  4. 3. Dagens och morgondagens hållbara landskapsarkitektur : klimatberäkning som vägvisare i designprocessen

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Maria Cankalp; [2024]
    Keywords : klimatberäkning; klimatkalkyl; klimatdeklaration; landskapsarkitektur; 3D; 3D-modellering; parametrisk design; Rhinoceros; Grasshopper;

    Abstract : I dag är behovet av att hitta lösningar på klimatfrågan mer brådskande än någonsin och frågan kring hur vi ska rädda klimatet är en av de största i vår samtid. Senast 2045 ska Sverige inte ha några nettoutsläpp av växthusgaser. READ MORE

  5. 4. Exploring the effects of pressure on the magnetic properties of quasi-low dimensional quantum magnets via thermodynamic measurements

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Emelie Zhu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Four model solid state compounds were used to experimentally investigate the effects of pressure on the interactions in one- and two-dimensional Heisenberg magnetic models. BaCuSi2O6, BaCu2V2O8, SrCuO2 and CuGeO3 were successfully synthesized via solid-state reactions and characterized via x-ray diffraction. READ MORE

  6. 5. Prospects for a Free Electron Laser at the FemtoMAX Beamline

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Johan Holmberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Free Electron Lasers; FEL; synchrotron radiation; MAX IV; FemtoMAX; GENESIS 1.3; XFEL; X-rays; soft X-rays; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an exponential growth in radiation intensity.
