  1. 11. Comparative Analysis of Spatiotemporal Playback Manipulation : Evaluating Desktop Environments versus Immersive Head-Mounted Virtual Reality Environments

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Andreas Wrife; [2023]
    Keywords : virtual reality; surgical simulations; external ventricular drainage; motion capture; interaction controls; virtuell verklighet; kirurgiska simuleringar; extern ventrikeldränage; motion capture; interaktionskontroller;

    Abstract : Virtual Reality (VR) is a creative tool that enables immersive learning, planning and training of surgical operations. Extensive research has been conducted in multiple surgical specialities where VR has been utilized, such as spinal neurosurgery. However, cranial neurosurgery remains relatively unexplored in this regard. READ MORE

  2. 12. In-Situ Gold Resource Estimation Using Satellite Remote Sensing and Machine Learning in Defunct Tailing Storage Facilities (South Africa)

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Shenelle Agard; [2023]
    Keywords : tailings storage facility; critical raw materials; machine learning; mine valorisation;

    Abstract : The mining industry generates billions of tonnes of waste annually, which is often stored in tailings storage facilities (TSF). This waste is generated from the extraction of ore from surface or underground mines, as well as from metallurgical processing and low-grade stockpiles. READ MORE

  3. 13. Modified cellulose synthesized by different deep eutectic solvents as an additive in paper making process

    University essay from Karlstads universitet

    Author : Shiniar Said Saleh; [2023]
    Keywords : green chemistry; dry strength additives; deep eutectic solvents; sodium periodate oxidation; charge density; dewatering; mechanical strength.;

    Abstract : The environmental concerns that come with the currently used traditional papermaking process where petroleum-based additives are used, has tempted researchers to study “green” additives by introducing environmentally friendly modifications of cellulose as an additive in the papermaking process. This thesis will spin further on that by producing additives with different charge densities and focus on to incorporate an etherification reaction into potentially greens systems based on non-toxic and readily biodegradable deep eutectic solvent (DES).

  4. 14. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
    Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

  5. 15. Social Stormwater : Treating the stormwater through blue-green social strategies in Hagsätra, Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Linn Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Stormwater; social sustainability; stormwater management; rainwater; biodiversity; recreation;

    Abstract : This project is established on the following questions:  How can Stockholm adapt to increasing extreme rainfall events through combined stormwater drainage strategies?How can social sustainability be implemented in stormwater treatment?How can stormwater and social design educate the public about the importance of clean water bodies?  Global and national trends show that annual precipitation is increasing, and extreme weather events are becoming more common. Urban landscapes are more susceptible to cloudburst flooding due to impervious surfaces. READ MORE
