    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industridesign

    Author : Sofia Lykke Saxbøl; [2023]
    Keywords : Arts and Architecture; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hospitals have been a crucial element of healthcare for centuries, providing a space for diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. The design of hospitals has evolved dramatically throughout history, with significant changes in both the form and function of these institutions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Numerical simulation of acoustic wave propagation with a focus on modeling sediment layers and large domains

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

    Author : Elias Estensen; [2022]
    Keywords : Helmholtz; wave equation; acoustics; ocean acoustics; numerical analysis; computational science; finite differences; summation by parts; sbp; waveholtz; cylindrical coordinates; sediment layers; interface; super-grid; super grid; absorbing layer; Helmholtz; vågekvationen; akustik; undervattensakustik; numerisk analys; beräkningsvetenskap; finita differenser; summation by parts; sbp; cylindriska koordinater; waveholtz; sedimentskikt; interface; super-grid; absorberande lager;

    Abstract : In this report, we study how finite differences can be used to simulate acoustic wave propagation originating from a point source in the ocean using the Helmholtz equation. How to model sediment layers and the vast size of the ocean is studied in particular. READ MORE

  4. 3. Marine Habitat Mapping Using Image Enhancement Techniques & Machine Learning

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Avdelningen för datateknik och informatik

    Author : Mudasar Mureed; [2022]
    Keywords : Coral Reef; Habitat Mapping; Convolutional Neural Network; Transfer Learning; Fine Tuning; CLAHE;

    Abstract : AbstractThe mapping of habitats is the first step that is done in policies that target theenvironment, as well as in spatial planning and management. The biodiversityplans are always centered around habitats. Therefore, constant monitoring ofthese delicate species in terms of health, changes, and extinction is a must inbiodiversity plans.

  5. 4. Tracking of Sinking Underwater Node using Inertial Navigation

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Kristoffer Lindve; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Tracking objects underwater is prone to error since no equivalent system to GPS exists for underwater applications. Accurate positioning is vital for conducting surveillance. However, it is hard for a system to keep an accurate prediction while moving without a GPS source. READ MORE

  6. 5. Benthic mapping of the Bluefields Bay fish sanctuary, Jamaica

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Karen Mcintyre; [2015]
    Keywords : remote sensing; image classification; GIS; acoustic survey; benthic habitat mapping; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Small island states, such as those in the Caribbean, are dependent on the nearshore marine ecosystem complex and its resources; the goods and services provided by seagrass and coral reef for example, are particularly indispensable to the tourism and fishing industries. In recognition of their valuable contributions and in an effort to promote sustainable use of marine resources, some nearshore areas have been designated as fish sanctuaries, as well as marine parks and protected areas.
