1. 1. Analyzing Synthetic Spider Silk-based Diffraction Grids for the Sunshade Project

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Johanna D'Ciofalo Khodaverdian; Amira Karlsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Sunshade project; Diffraction grating; Artificial spider silk; Climate change; Geoengineering;

   Abstract : To mitigate climate change a proposed space-based geoengineering solutionis to screen off solar irradiance by placing a membrane in between the Earthand the Sun. The feasibility of such a project largely depends on minimizingthe mass of the shading screen and as an extension to the Sunshade projectthis thesis investigated how such a low-mass membrane could be designed.

3. 2. How to fail successfully: the struggles of PAR within academia

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten; Linköpings universitet/Tema Genus

   Author : Dimitra Moustaka; [2023]
   Keywords : Participatory action research PAR ; decolonial research; asylum interview; coloniality of the academy; intersectionality; self-reflectivity;

   Abstract : This research seeks to explore the origins and values of participatory action research, as well as its role in transforming possibilities to knowledge production and shaping equal relationships between research participants. Drawing from the theoretical frameworks of intersectionality and decoloniality and with a focus on the experience of the asylum interview, the research seeks to explore the ways that those epistemological paradigms intertwine with participatory research to deconstruct the dichotomy between researcher and research subject (expert/community) and re-balance the power differentials embedded within academia, canonical knowledge production and traditional research methodologies, to initiate change.

4. 3. Exploration of Radar Cross Section Models and Distributed Sensing Techniques in JCAS Cell-free Massive MIMO

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Qinglin Zou; [2023]
   Keywords : Joint communication and sensing; Cell-free massive MIMO; Swerling models; Distributed Sensing; Gemensam kommunikation och avkänning; Cellfri massiv MIMO; Swerling modeller; Distributed Sensing;

   Abstract : Joint Communication and Sensing (JCAS) technology enables the sharing of infrastructure, resources, and signals between communication and sensing. However, studying the performance and algorithms using appropriate target reflectivity models for detection poses a significant challenge. READ MORE

5. 4. Design of an Industrial Bin Picking Station

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

   Author : Jonathan Ramb; [2023]
   Keywords : bin picking; computer vision; automation; robotics; 3D Scanning; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With the ever-increasing demand for automation, new ways to optimize production lines are needed. The aim of this thesis is to complete an industrial automation task by employing a concept in robotics known as bin picking. The concept involves organizing objects by picking them out of a cluttered bin using an industrial robot. READ MORE

6. 5. (1,3-di-tert-butyltriazenide) Cu(I) as vapor deposition precursor

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kemi

   Author : Peggy Bagherzadeh; [2023]
   Keywords : Vapor deposition; CVD; ALD; triazenide;

   Abstract : In the past few decades, devices such as computers have become smaller, and their performance has improved beyond comparison. Semiconductors and interconnectors are used in almost all devices today and are made of thin films. READ MORE
