  1. 1. Inclusion of differential pricing in congestion charging scheme: The case of Stockholm and Curitiba

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Joaquin Franco; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among transport demand management (TDM) strategies, congestion pricing has been one of the most widely applied, but at the same time one of the most criticised. The reason is that this measure is considered regressive, exclusionary, and inequitable, since having a flat rate ignores people's ability to pay, i.e. READ MORE

  3. 2. Multilingual Transformer Models for Maltese Named Entity Recognition

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för lingvistik och filologi

    Author : Kris Farrugia; [2022]
    Keywords : low-resource; named-entity; information extraction; Maltese;

    Abstract : The recently developed state-of-the-art models for Named Entity Recognition are heavily dependent upon huge amounts of available annotated data. Consequently, it is extremely challenging for data-scarce languages to obtain significant result. READ MORE

  4. 3. Ab inito calculation of the formation energy of the sigma phases at 1000 Kelvin : With a five sublattice model for the ternary Iron-Chromium-Nickel system

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Fabian Mathias Veid; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This project investigates the σ-phase formation energy at 1000 Kelvin using Exact Muffin TIn Orbital (EMTO) method and considers the disordered local moment approach to handle the paramagnetism in a self-consistent manner. The sigma phase is detrimental and causes embrittlement when it occurs primarily in stainless steel and superalloys with Iron (Fe) and Chromium (Cr), which is why it is necessary to understand it better and therefore avoid it.
