1. 1. Assessing the Effectiveness of Urban Trees with Skeletal Soils in Flood Risk Mitigation

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Molly Boberg; [2024]
   Keywords : Flood Management; Climate Adaptation; Nature-Based Solutions NBS ; Urban Trees; Skeletal Soil; Hydrologic Modelling; MIKE; Översvämningshantering; Klimatanpassning; Naturbaserade lösningar; Stadsträd; Skelettjord; Hydrologisk modellering; MIKE;

   Abstract : With increased urbanization and climate change, heavy rainfall events and urban floods are becoming more frequent. To meet the demands for effective climate adaptation strategies and mitigation measures, Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have received increased attention. READ MORE

3. 2. Does Labour Work? A Macroeconomic Perspective on Work Time Reduction

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

   Author : Paul Pawlowski; Jack Vahnberg; [2023-06-29]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : We conduct an empirical study on work time reduction and its accompanying macroeconomic outcomes across countries. Specifically, we frame the analysis in the context of neoclassical and post-Keynesian economic theory, and their differing predictions on work time reduction, real GDP growth, unemployment and functional distribution.

4. 3. Understanding User Behaviour in a Circular Transport System : From personal choices to societal patterns

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Stockholm Resilience Centre

   Author : Luja von Köckritz; [2023]
   Keywords : circular economy; agent-based modelling; user behaviour; behavioural decision-making; affordance theory;

   Abstract : The Circular Economy is a growing research field and policy agenda. Yet, integrating the social dimensions of sustainability into the Circular Economy remains a challenge. The significance of reactions to an implemented Circular Economy is poorly understood. READ MORE

5. 4. Portfolio Risk Modelling in Venture Debt

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : John Eriksson; Jacob Holmberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Startup Default Probability; Venture Debt; Gaussian Copula; Value-at-Risk; Expected Shortfall; Exposure at Default; Loss Given Default; Forecast; Linear Dynamic System; ARIMA Time Series; Monte Carlo Simulation; Linear Regression; Central Limit Theorem;

   Abstract : This thesis project is an experimental study on how to approach quantitative portfolio credit risk modelling in Venture Debt portfolios. Facing a lack of applicable default data from ArK and publicly available sets, as well as seeking to capture companies that fail to service debt obligations before defaulting per se, we present an approach to risk modeling based on trends in revenue.

6. 5. Open-Circuit-Voltage hysteresis measurement and modelling of LiFePO4 Batteries : Master Thesis Report - 2023

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

   Author : Guillaume Larrat; [2023]
   Keywords : Open-Circuit-Voltage OCV Hysteresis - Voltage relaxation - Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique GITT - Hysteresis modelling; Öppenkretsspännings OCV hysteres - Spänningsrelaxation - Galvanostatisk intermittent titreringsteknik GITT - Hysteresmodellering;

   Abstract : In a context of an expected increasing use of Lithium-ion batteries in the transportation sector, Volvo AB is developing its own solutions for large electric vehicles. It is then beneficial to reduce the costs, the energy demand and the raw materials demand by improving the battery systems’ performances. READ MORE
