1. 1. Macroprudential regulation of borrowing standards: a comparative analysis of loan-to-value and loan-to-income policies.

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

   Author : Sante Carbone; Oona Hakala; [2019]
   Keywords : Consumer Debt; Crisis; Housing; Housing Finance; Bayesian;

   Abstract : Starting from the Two-Agents New-Keynesian DSGE framework presented by Iacoviello and Neri (2010), we re-write the model allowing for a loan-to-income (LTI) constraint in place of a loan-to-value (LTV) constraint. We derive a balanced growth path equilibrium for our model and compare steady-state results as well as dynamic responses to a rich set of shocks between the two macroprudential regulations.

3. 2. An Analysis of Including the Evolution Law for the Serial Element in the Musculoskeletal Modelling

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

   Author : Alexandra Roser; [2019]
   Keywords : biomechanical simulation; contraction dynamics; dissipation inequality; Hill-type muscle model; strain-energy function;

   Abstract : In the classic Hill model for muscle contraction, the split between the muscle and tendon is arbitrary and the problem lacks a unique solution. Instead of reformulating the problem to a differential-algebraic equation and solving for a set of initial conditions, a constant tendon length is commonly assumed in musculoskeletal simulation tools.

4. 3. Re-examining the dynamics of the Milky Way with new distance estimates

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : John Wimarsson; [2018]
   Keywords : Milky Way dynamics; Gaia; distance estimates; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The use of reliable distance estimates is key to derive accurate three-dimensional velocities of celestial objects. Systematic overestimation and large uncertainties in the distances will thus provide misleading information of an object's kinematics. READ MORE

5. 4. Dark Matter Subhalos Gravitational Dynamics and Evolution

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Edvin Zigmanovic; [2014]
   Keywords : dark matter; subhalos; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this thesis, I present a case where Dark Matter subhalos would annihilate at some stage in their lifetime. The implication of this scenario could potentially aid the Missing Satellites and the Cusp-Core density profile problem. READ MORE

6. 5. Optical sensors for mechanomyography and tissue chromophores

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

   Author : Emil Ljungberg; [2013]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The mechanomyogram (MMG) is a mechanical oscillations observable on the surface of the skin as a muscle contracts. Measurement of the MMG utilizing contact sensors with a weight greater than 6 g has proved to interfere with the measurement. Use of optical displacement sensors without direct contact to the skin would remove this deficiency. READ MORE
