1. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/SynkrotronljusfysikAbstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.

2. Concrete Limits: A sociometabolic analysis of the feasibility of the Circular Economy approach for the concrete sector
University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutetAbstract : The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research.

3. CCU in Scandinavia: an uncertainty analysis regarding the future state of captured carbon in the region.
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaperAbstract : The urgent need to mitigate climate change has prompted researchers to investigate novel strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One promising technology that might ease the way for sustainable and circular economies is carbon capture and utilization (CCU), which not only captures CO2 emissions but also uses them to produce valuable products.

4. Methods for determining focal point and delay for ultrasound arrays and multichannel electronics
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : High intensity focused ultrasound is a growing technique for tissue ablation, among other uses, and given its destructive capabilities, there is a need for control of where the energy is delivered. There exist a number of methods for focusing such ultrasound arrays, but these often assume prior knowledge of the impulse response, or require extensive full-system simulations. READ MORE

5. Climate and economic implications of structure and façade materials on a building's life cycle performance : A case study of a multi-family building in Sweden
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljöAbstract : This study has been conducted in cooperation with OBOS Kärnhem. The objective of the study is to assess environmental impacts from different structural and facade materials to find a configuration with the lowest impact, and to assess the economic implications of different structural and façade materials.
