1. 11. Remote sensing analysis of land cover/use conditions of community-based wildlife conservation areas in Tanzania

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Kharid Mwakoba; [2021]
   Keywords : geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; remote sensing; wildlife management area; Tanzania; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Community based approaches to conservation in the developing world have generally been criticized for not meeting their goals of sustainable conservation and local development. Inadequate local participation and inequitable benefits sharing among others are some of the major concerns. READ MORE

3. 12. Finite Element Head ModelPersonalization by Mesh Morphing

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Yann Levin; [2021]
   Keywords : Biomechanics; Finite element; Head models; Image Registration; Mesh morphing; Personalization.;

   Abstract : Finite Element (FE) head models are very convenient tools forthe study of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) but lack significantanatomical details for the investigation of morphology or age-dependantinjury mechanisms. In this context, the use of deformable registrationalgorithms for the generation of personalized head models is veryconsistent for the development of improved protection systems likehelmets.

4. 13. Investigation of the effect of alloying elements on the printability of biodegradable material

   University essay from KTH/Flerskalig materialmodellering

   Author : Fikan Mubarok Rohimsyah; [2019]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The integration of biodegradable implant into the human body must meet both engineering and physiological requirements. The properties of magnesium such as low density, high specific strength and other biocompatibility properties makes magnesium and its alloy suitable for several biodegradable implant application.

5. 14. Analysis of uncertainties in fatigue load assessment : a study on one Kaplan hydro turbine during start operation

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Annica Gustafsson; [2019]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Hydro turbine runner; Uncertainty analysis; Fatigue load; Fatigue damage; Propagation of uncertainty.; Vattenkraft; Löphjul; Osäkerhetsanalys; Utmattning; Delskada; Fortplantning av osäkeheter.;

   Abstract : In the future, hydropower plants are expected to operate more flexibly. This will lead to a more varied operation of the turbine and the generator, such as more start and stop in order to stabilise the frequency in the grid. Studies show that these transient operations are more costly in terms of fatigue degradation, i.e. READ MORE

6. 15. Carbon Stability of Biochar : Methods for assessment and indication

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Helena Söderqvist; [2019]
   Keywords : Biochar; Stability; MRT; Carbon sink; Carbon stability; Negative emissions technology NET ;

   Abstract : Biochar can reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and is acknowledged as one feasible technology for negative carbon emissions. The stability of carbon in biochar is of major importance for the carbon sequestration value. A method for confident estimation of the stability is needed to make efficient priorities for the climate. READ MORE
