1. 1. Chinese Expansionism : A case study on the Chinese expansionist initiative in the South China Sea during the last decade

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för statsvetenskap (ST)

   Author : Måns Nilsson; [2024]
   Keywords : The South China Sea; Realism; Balance of Power; Regional Hegemony and Elements of National Power.;

   Abstract : The Asian renaissance in the twentieth first century, constituted by astronomical economic growth combined with the ambitious and authoritarian leadership of Xi Jinping's reign, has led China in the direction of proactive international policies. The South China Sea is one of the major arenas where such policies are taking place. READ MORE

3. 2. Structural analysis of HZO thin film and electrode using X-ray diffraction

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Elliot Winsnes; [2024]
   Keywords : HZO; hafnia; hafnium dioxide; zirconium dioxide; ferroelectricity; ferroelectric; synchrotron radiation; X-ray diffraction; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Since its discovery in 2011, the ferroelectricity of thin films based on HfO2 has been studied intensively. In particular, thin films with a 1:1 ratio of HfO2 and ZrO2 (HZO) has been of great interest. The ferroelectricity arises from a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic (o) phase of HZO whose prevalence is dependent on the processing conditions. READ MORE

4. 3. Flow of charged particles in Pb-Pb and pp collisions at the LHC

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

   Author : Mohamed Berkat; [2024]
   Keywords : Quark Gluon Plasma; QGP; Quantum Chromodynamic; QCD; flow coefficients; Event Plane; Cumulants; ALICE; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates the transition of Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD) matter to a strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), where quarks and gluons become deconfined. The expansion of this plasma exhibits characteristics of an ideal relativistic hydrodynamics system, suggesting a behavior similar to that of a perfect fluid. READ MORE

5. 4. Interrupting prolonged sitting behavior with gamification: Mobile adaptation of the break reminder desktop app Liopep

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Angelica Caridad Hernandez Cerutti; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The present work aims at guiding the design transition of the break reminder desktop application Liopep to a mobile platform. The goal is to improve and adapt the gamified intervention to address sedentary behavior at an organizational level. READ MORE

6. 5. Computational Fluid Dynamics and Modeling of a Free Surface Flow

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Mathieu Marmier; [2023]
   Keywords : CFD; Free Surface Flow; VOF; STAR-CCM ; Multiphase Simulation; Nuclear Engineering; Fluid Mechanics;

   Abstract : This project deals with the CFD modelling of a free surface flow. The aim is to develop and validate a fast and accurate numerical model for stratified two-phase flows. Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase model is employed. The purpose is to use the developed numerical model for the design of an element within a compact nuclear reactor. READ MORE
