  1. 1. Modeling and Simulation for Forward Arming and Refueling Points : Enhancing efficiency and Decision- making in Military Operations

    University essay from Försvarshögskolan

    Author : Philip Muurmans; [2023]
    Keywords : FARP; military operation; military logistics; military capability; Modeling and Simulation; Monte Carlo simulation; discrete event simulation; IS framework;

    Abstract : This master’s thesis explores the application of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) techniques in military operations involving Forward Arming and Refueling Points (FARP). FARPs play a crucial role in supporting aircraft operations by facilitating deep penetration into enemy territory and ensuring sustained presence in the Area of Operation (AOO). READ MORE

  2. 2. Small hauliers' perception of battery electric vehicles : An investigation of opportunities, barriers and potential ownership models

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Logistik- och kvalitetsutveckling

    Author : Magdalena Bohlin; Emma Dahlin; [2023]
    Keywords : Transport; Haulier; Battery electric vehicle;

    Abstract : Today, one third of Sweden’s total greenhouse gas emissions come from domestic transport. To reduce these emissions, the Swedish government has set emission targets. To meet these and to avoid the global impacts of climate changes, the need for new technologies and new fuels to replace fossil fuels has become evident. READ MORE
