1. Forecasting Football Corner Odds: Statistical Modelling, Betting Strategies and Assessing Market Efficiency
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Statistical modelling could be included in a betting strategy where the value of a bet is assessed by comparing model predictions and market odds. This thesis presents several models based on statistical learning methods for predicting the total number of corners in a football match. READ MORE

2. Soil Improvement method by Mass Stabilization : Settlement analysis in stabilized sulfide soil
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Mass stabilization is not a common soil improvement method in Sweden, and even less so in sulfide soils. Previous research indicates that a linear elastic material model is suitable for settlements in stabilized sulfide soil. A construction project in the northern part of Sweden applied mass stabilization in sulfide soil. READ MORE

3. Development of a DEM-FEM framework for infrastructure simulations
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för fysikAbstract : This thesis presents a coupling algorithm of the discrete element method (DEM) and finite element method (FEM). The algorithm formulates an explicit coupling of transient simulations of particle systems interacting with elastic bodies. READ MORE

4. Embedment Behavior of Steel Dowel in Timber: Influence of Moisture Content, Assembly History, and Artificial Cracks : An experimental and numerical study of embedment strength and stiffness of steel dowel in timber with different wood moisture content and assembly history
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)Abstract : Timber is becoming an increasingly popular construction material particularly due to its great environmental properties. Just alone around Linnaeus University in Växjö city, dozens of multistory buildings in timber have risen. READ MORE

5. Correlation of numerical simulation methods and failure criteria to experimental burst test
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/HållfasthetsläraAbstract : Predicting the burst speed of turbine rotors is a costly and challenging task. Therefore, the scope of this thesis is to perform a correlation study between numerical simulation methods and failure criteria to experimental over-speed burst test of the Prometheus turbine rotor.
