  1. 11. Not everything that glitters is gold : does linear infrastructure create an ecological trap for golden eagles?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Michelle Etienne; [2020]
    Keywords : HIREC; animal ecology; animal movement; animal behaviour; integrated step selection function; wildlife traffic accidents; maladaptive behaviour; fitness; habitat selection;

    Abstract : Animals can be caught in an “ecological trap” when they select for seemingly attractive habitats at the expense of their fitness. This maladaptive behaviour is often a consequence of human induced rapid changes in their natal environment, such as the development of linear infrastructure, where roads and railways create novel feeding conditions through traffic induced mortality of other species and powerline areas provide perching or nesting sites.

  2. 12. Fast retuning of superconducting radiofrequency accelerating cavities in the European Spallation Source linear accelerator.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Sofia Johannesson; [2020]
    Keywords : Accelerator; retuning; ESS; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of the degree project is to continue the work of PhD student YuanShuai Qin on creating a fast retuning of the ESS accelerator lattice in the event of an accelerating cavity being offline. The main goal of the project was evaluating and improving the retuning routine created by YuanShuai Qin. READ MORE

  3. 13. Learning behaviour trees for simulated fighter pilots in airborne reconnaissance missions : A grammatical evolution approach

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Artificiell intelligens och integrerade datorsystem

    Author : Pernilla Eilert; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fighter pilots often find themselves in situations where they need to make quick decisions. Therefore an intelligent decision support system that suggests how the fighter pilot should act in a specific situation is vital. READ MORE

  4. 14. Increasing Phenotype Diversity In Terrain Generation Using Fourier Transform : Implementation of Fourier transform as an intermediate phenotype for genetic algorithms

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : John Heiding; [2019]
    Keywords : Genetic algorithm; Procedural content generation; Fourier transform; Artificial terrains;

    Abstract : Context. Creating resources for games and 3D environments is an effort consuming process. Some are looking to procedural algorithms to aid in this endeavour but the effort to configure the algorithms can be time consuming in itself. This paper will continue from a set of papers written by Frade et al. READ MORE

  5. 15. HEART RATE RECOVERY IN EXHAUSTION DISORDER : quadratic vagal interaction predicting work ability?

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Anna Sandgren; [2019]
    Keywords : Exhaustion disorder; ED; Burnout; Heart rate recovery; HRR; gastrointestinal; work ability; Exhaustion disorder; ED; Burnout; Heart rate recovery; HRR; gastrointestinal; work ability;

    Abstract : Exhaustion disorder (ED) is a Swedish criteria-based medical diagnosis related to burnout, that often requires long term rehabilitation and sick leave. Comorbidity of functional gastrointestinal (GI) problems and ED has been reported and may be mediated by dysregulated vagal function. READ MORE
