  1. 1. Regional Inequality and Spatial Dependence in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Samuel Malmström Arfwedson; [2023]
    Keywords : Regional inequality; convergence; spatial dependence; spatial econometrics; Sweden; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Regional inequality is a growing concern in developed countries, as country-level convergence may obscure increasing disparities within countries. This thesis aims to address this concern by examining the dynamics of regional convergence in Sweden from 1980-2022. READ MORE

  2. 2. Spectral broadening of 4 mJ femtosecond pulses using a bulk multi-pass cell

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

    Author : Saga Westerberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Lasers; Ultrashort; Nonlinear Optics; femtosecond; Multi-Pass Cell; Spectral broadening; pulse post-compression; Self phase modulation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Nonlinear optical effects can be used for spectral broadening, which the basis of the field of post-compression of laser pulses. When the intensity of light becomes high enough the refractive index becomes intensity dependent, and as the intensity often varies both with position and time so does the refractive index.

  3. 3. Reconstruction of Fire Spread with a Markov Random Field Mixture Model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Marcus Gehrmann; [2023]
    Keywords : Forest fire; fire scars; spatial statistics; Markov random field; EM-algorithm; pseudo-likelihood; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis revolves around reconstructing fire sizes for historical fires in Jämtgaveln, Sweden based on data of fire scars in trees. We propose a Hidden Markov Model (HMM), where the domain is divided into quadratic grid cells of 250 $\times$ 250 m and with these grid cells we associate a binary Markov random field taking values 0 or 1 corresponding to no fire and fire respectively.

  4. 4. CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF A NIPAM POLYMER GEL MRI DOSIMETER SYSTEM

    University essay from

    Author : Christian Waldenberg; [2022-11-08]
    Keywords : Medical physics; Normoxic polymer gel dosimeter; NiPAM;

    Abstract : Purpose: The normoxic polymer gel dosimeter based on N-isopropyl acrylamide (NiPAM) is a promising full 3D-dosimeter with high spatial resolution and near tissue equivalency. However, limited work have been done in vestigating this dosimeter. The dose response and reproducibility of a NiPAM dosimeter was investigated. READ MORE

  5. 5. MULTI-CRITERIA ANALYSIS FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING : A case study of Nigeria

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Author : Nelson Okosun; [2022]
    Keywords : Energy; Multi-Criteria; Infrastructure; GIS;

    Abstract : Rising levels of urbanization and technological advancements has led to a shift towards dependence on energy consuming devices, machineries, and electrical appliances both for personal and productive use. This has led to higher demand for electricity services and more pressure on power supply facilities. READ MORE
