16. Data-driven Strain Sensor Modelling in Mining Applications : Artificial strain sensors for material fatigue estimation
University essay from Linköpings universitet/FordonssystemAbstract : When boring machines are used, large loads are exerted on their structure. The load cycles cause material fatigue on the boring machine structure. If the material fatigue can be estimated in real-time, maintenance can be planned more efficiently and the effect of different types of usage can be evaluated. READ MORE

17. Self-levelling Platform Concept for a Winch-based, Single Point Absorbing, Wave Energy Converter
University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Avd.)Abstract : This report covers a bachelor thesis project to design a concept for a levelling system to a point absorbing wave energy converter that uses a winch with a chain, which has restricted capabilities to bending and thus requires a system which compensates for this. First of all, a literature study was made to see if there were any technologies that could be used, and also a wide search for information about the wave conditions in the Baltic sea were performed to find what requirements would be necessary for the concept to be able to withstand the conditions faced there.

18. EMPATHIC DISTRESS : The Dark Side of Caring?
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : The current review aims to unravel what is known regarding the neural substrates of empathicdistress and compassion fatigue. Empathic distress is a self-oriented feeling of anxietyexperienced in response to the suffering of another. It has been related to, and theorized to bea precursor of, compassion fatigue. READ MORE

20. Load following in a Swedish nuclear power plant
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Abstract : The energy system in Sweden is currently under a great transformation, where the part of weather dependent energy sources, so called intermittent sources, like solar and wind power will get greater share in the total production of electricity while the production from stable energy sources like nuclear power is decreasing. For a long time, the nuclear power have been operating at baseload and the hydropower as flexible, though, due to the change in the current power system, nuclear power plants may need to transit to flexible operation and apply load following.
