  1. 16. We shape our buildings, but do they shape us? Exploring the influence of green urban design on pro-environmental behaviour: a case study of Schoonschip in Amsterdam, NL.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Borea Malnoury; [2023]
    Keywords : Pro-environmental behaviour; green urban design; nudging; behaviour change; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the context of escalating environmental consciousness, this thesis scrutinizes urban sustainability, with a specific focus on Amsterdam's Schoonschip sustainable housing project. The investigation delves into the nuanced realm of green design, probing its potential and constraints in steering residents towards sustainable practices. READ MORE

  2. 17. Computational study of the photophysical properties of two related photosensitizer proteins

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Benjamin Fégeant; [2023]
    Keywords : Photosensitizer proteins; QM MM; photophysics; molecular dynamics; computational protocol for protein preparation; Fotosensibiliserande proteiner; QM MM; fotofysik; molekylär dynamik; beräkningsprotokoll för förberedelser av proteiner;

    Abstract : Den ökande koldioxidhalten i atmosfären har lett till ett ökat intresse för användning av solljus, ett exempel är inom kemi. Att använda ljus i kemi kan leda till nya och intressanta kemiska reaktioner och kan tillämpas i användningsområden som exempelvis fotokatalys och fotovoltaik. READ MORE

  3. 18. A changing energy security environment – a review of alternative energy carriers for light duty vehicles

    University essay from Försvarshögskolan

    Author : Julia Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Supply chain; Logistic; Energy security; Light duty vehicle;

    Abstract :   The increasing energy demand and its impact on the climate around the world has evoked several sectors´ efforts in order to develop and implement sustainable technologies. Political incentives and companies go toward great changes when it comes to reduction of energy sources from fossil-origins in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achievement of energy security.

  4. 19. Simulating distributed PV electricity generation on a municipal level : Validating a model for simulating PV electricity generation and implementing it for estimating the aggregated PV generation in Knivsta Municipality

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Lisa Molin; Sara Ericson; [2023]
    Keywords : photovoltaic generation model; model validation; artificial intelligence; machine learning; convolutional neural network; LIDAR;

    Abstract :   The deployment of distributed photovoltaic (PV) is accelerating worldwide. Understanding when and where PV systems will generate electricity is valuable as it affects the power balance in the grids. One way of obtaining this information is simulating the PV power production of systems detected in Remotely Sensed Data (RSD). READ MORE

  5. 20. Estimating stellar limb darkening using exoplanet transits

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

    Author : Sora Ishida; [2023]
    Keywords : Limb-darkening; CHEOPS; Transit; Exoplanet; PYCHEOPS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The brightness of the stars is not uniform over the surface as it varies depending on the wavelength and the atmosphere that the light propagates. Limb darkening is an optical effect caused by a decrease in brightness of the star towards the edge. READ MORE
