  1. 16. Vibrational signals as indicators of soil fauna health? : A novel approach to environmental monitoring of ants

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Joel Fransson Forsberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Vibrations; Formica ants; Vibrometer; Vibrational signals; Imidacloprid; Before-After-Control-Impact;

    Abstract : Soil fauna provides processes of crucial importance for ecosystem functions, but our ability to observe their actions often depend on destructive methods where the integrity of the studied environment (the soil) is compromised. In this study, I develop and test a new generation of environmental monitoring tools that utilize vibrations made by soil macrofauna to inform about their performance and health. READ MORE

  2. 17. Performance metrics and velocity influence for point cloud registration in autonomous vehicles

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

    Author : Óscar Poveda Ruiz; [2023]
    Keywords : autonomous vehicle; localization; registration; metrics; error; classification; estimation; autonomt fordon; lokalisering; registrering; mätvärden; fel; klassificering; uppskattning;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles are currently under study and one of the critical parts is the localization of the vehicle in the environment. Different localization methods have been studied over the years, such as the GPS sensor, commonly fused with other sensors such as the IMU. READ MORE

  3. 18. Lifetime CostEffectiveness of Constructed Wetland and Rain Garden Facilities in Relation to Expected  Treatment Performance

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Abdullah Noorhussin Ali; [2023]
    Keywords : Stormwater; Total cost; StormTac; Cost-effectiveness;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the cost effectiveness of two different stormwater control measure (SCM) facilities, namely a constructed wetland in Boden and a rain garden in Gothenburg (both Sweden), in relation to treatment efficiency and contributing catchment area. The study approach involved collection of data, construction, and maintenance activities with their respective costs, for the two stormwater control measures from commercial and literature data.

  4. 19. Developing a Test Method to Evaluate the Blackout Effect of Uncoated Curtains at Varying Angles

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Sara Muminovic; Christina Lindén; [2023]
    Keywords : Blackout effect; blackout curtain; uncoated woven curtains; angle interval; light transmission; light box; light diffuser; microscopic image analysis;

    Abstract : This study aimed to explore the integration of varying angles in small-scale measurements and assess the light transmission performance of uncoated curtains. A total of four curtains were evaluated: blackout curtain samples 1 and 2 had a weft satin structure, while daytime curtain samples 3 and 4 consisted of a twill structure. READ MORE

  5. 20. Flash Pulse Thermography Measurements of Coat Thickness

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Alexander Häggkvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Flash Pulse Thermography; Power Function; Dynamical Thermal Tomography;

    Abstract : The application of varnish, metal coats, and paint is a common practice for modifying or enhancing material properties. Metal coats are frequently used as protective layers against corrosion, heat, and wear, while also influencing characteristics like conductivity, weight, and production costs. READ MORE
