1. 1. Closing loops, opening minds. The role of social capital for knowledge sharing relationships in circular value networks.

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för företagande och ledning

   Author : Jacopo Angeloni; Isak Axelson; [2024]
   Keywords : Social capital; Knowledge sharing; Circular economy; Value networks; Glass recycling;

   Abstract : In the wake of the threats of climate change and natural resource depletion, an increasing number of companies are aligning their strategies and operations with the concept of the circular economy. The circular economy transition can be enabled by companies adopting novel circular business models, embracing collaboration and knowledge sharing between partners in broad circular value networks.

3. 2. Analysis of a shape morphing structural battery: manufacturing, analytical modeling and numerical simulation

   University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

   Author : Alfredo Bici; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : A reduction in the global use of fossil fuels is necessary when striving for a more sustainable future. One key strategy in the transition from fossil fuels is electrification. This strategy is particularly prominent within the transport sector, where more efficient ways to store electric energy are being pursued. READ MORE

4. 3. Exploring time-extended complexity measures in magnetic systems

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

   Author : Jannes van Poppelen; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Complexity, a fundamental concept in physics, encompasses phenomena spanning atomic to cosmic scales. The natural emergence of complexity can be explained by self-organized criticality. In this work, two complexity measures in magnetic systems are explored. READ MORE

5. 4. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
   Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

   Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

6. 5. Sustainable Polymer Production: Investigating Synthesis and Copolymerization of Cyclic Ketene Acetals

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Soufian Bourraman; Stella Staffas; Adam Brandt; Simon Isaksson; [2023]
   Keywords : Monomers; polymers; radical; radical ring opening polymerization; polymerization; BMDO; MMA; MVL; MBL; comonomer; copolymer; rROP; sustainable; biobased; degradable; monomer synthesis; plastic; polyester; bulk; solution; NMR; FTIR; TGA; DSC; SEC; hydrolysis; molecular weight; diol; ester bonds;

   Abstract : The large amount of non-degradable plastic waste has become a significant environmental concern, leading to an increased need for degradable plastics. Here in, to create degradable polymers, polyesters were produced through radical ring opening polymerization using cyclic ketene acetals. READ MORE
