  1. 11. An Inexpensive Alpha Spectrometer Based on a p-i-n Photodiode : Making Advanced Particle Detectors From Common Commercial Components

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Elias Arnqvist; [2022]
    Keywords : Alpha spectroscopy; alpha particle; particle detector; radiation detector; p-i-n diode; PIN diode; photodiode;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project was to design, construct, and evaluate an alpha spectrometer based on an inexpensive p-i-n photodiode as a radiation detector. The BPX-61 p-i-n photodiode was selected and calculated to have a 93 µm wide sensitive volume at 25 V reverse bias. READ MORE

  2. 12. Investigating the replacement of old passenger cars with modern less emission intensive cars in Sweden using Total Cost of Ownership approach

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Shahab Zafar; [2022]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; Total Cost of Ownership TCO ; Lifecycle Cost Analysis LCCA ; Netzero Mobility; ICE cars; EV Transition;

    Abstract : Purpose. In Sweden, private commuting accounts for two third of total transportation emissions and 21% of the country’s total. To become net-zero by 2045, Sweden plans to have 2 million electric cars on the roads by 2030. Whereas with current pace, there will be 1 million electric cars by the end of the decade. READ MORE

  3. 13. Energy efficiency measures in a typical Swedish single-family building from the 1960s

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Emanuel Larsson; Raffaello Ljungqvist Baldesi; [2022]
    Keywords : energy system; building; energy efficiency measures; storage; solar panels; electricity demand; heating demand; insulation;

    Abstract : Many buildings built in the 1960s are inefficient when it comes to their energy use. A lot of them are also in need of renovating. Therefore, this project is aiming to investigate five different scenarios where the decrease in electricity demand is in focus. READ MORE

  4. 14. Integrating CO2 Utilisation and Biomass Gasification with Steel-making Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF)

    University essay from KTH/Energiprocesser

    Author : Adel Mokhtari; [2022]
    Keywords : biomass gasification; carbon capture and utilization CCU ; process integration; electric arc furnace EAF ; EAF off-gas;

    Abstract : Without a doubt, there is a consensus around the international community which suggests that our current way of life is unsustainable for a healthy planet, society and economy. One focal point that should be taken deeply into consideration is the steel industry as, globally, it accounts for 8% of global emissions. READ MORE

  5. 15. Pricing of Embedded Options: Implementing Stochastic Interest Rates & Stochastic Spread

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Jan Müller; [2022]
    Keywords : Option pricing; Callable bonds; Affine term structure models; Hull-White one-factor; Hull White two-factor; Trinomial trees; Short rate; Default intensity; Swaption volatilities; Black-76; Credit derivatives; Calibration; Optimisation.; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Given the current market climate, in an era of negative interest-rates, the Hull-White model has regained popularity in the eyes of investors. This thesis aims to extend this model to incorporate credit risk, to allow the modelling of credit derivatives such as diff swaps, defaultable corporate bonds and credit default swaps. READ MORE
