1. 21. Technological progress and innovation, their decoupling effects on carbon emissions and economic growth exploring the environmental curve within the EU : A quantitative study

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

   Author : Petra Kreij; Georgios Margellos; [2022]
   Keywords : Carbon emissions; Decoupling; Environmental Curve; Economic Growth;

   Abstract : Climate change is one of the highest priority problems which needs to be addressed. The Paris Agreement focuses on zero-carbon solutions and to stop global warming while the United Nations highlights 17 sustainability goals. READ MORE

3. 22. The price and income elasticity of demand for small houses in Swedish municipalities.

   University essay from Jönköping University/Internationella Handelshögskolan

   Author : David Hörnell; [2022]
   Keywords : Price elasticity of demand; Income elasticity of demand; Regional economics; Housing market; Sweden;

   Abstract : The housing market is one of the most important markets for many economic agents. Large differences in the local market across Sweden suggest regional heterogeneity, however. This study aims to answer if the price and income elasticities of demand for small houses vary between different types of Swedish municipalities. READ MORE

4. 23. Proportional income taxation and heterogeneous labour supply responses : A study of gender-based heterogeneity in extensive margin labour supply decisions in response to changes in proportional income taxation in Swedish municipalities from 1960 to 1990

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

   Author : Elliott Syrén; [2022]
   Keywords : Proportional income taxation; Municipal tax rates; Extensive margin labour supply; Gender-based heterogeneity; Fixed effects; Weighted least squares WLS ; Public economics;

   Abstract : This thesis is, to my knowledge, the first study utilising data from the Swedish population and housing censuses between 1960 and 1990 merged with other data from the same period in order to estimate extensive margin labour supply responses to changes in municipal tax rate changes. Given that women historically have not faced the same structural labour market preconditions as men, the empirical strategy is designed to allow for an analysis of gender-based heterogeneity in labour supply responses.

5. 24. MODELLING FUEL DEMAND IN SWEDEN : A Study at Municipality Level

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Author : Gabrielle Söderberg; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The aim of this paper is to measure the price elasticities of fuel demand and if there are any differences in price elasticities across municipalities in Sweden. An instrumental variable model was specified using panel data used for the period between 2005 and 2020. READ MORE

6. 25. Wood and moisture-induced strains in a large deformation setting in 3D

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Fredrik Ström; Anwar Obeido; [2022]
   Keywords : Total Lagrangian; Finite element method; Large deformation theory; Deformation gradient decomposition; Moisture-induced strains; Hygroscopic; Orthotropic.;

   Abstract : Many studies have previously been done on moisture-induced strains in wood. An in- finitesimal/engineering strain model has been used for most of these studies, which is often an accurate approximation for small rotations. However, if large deformations oc- cur, then fictive strains are obtained resulting from the simplified engineering strain. READ MORE
