1. 1. Method development for the use of Smoothed-particle hydrodynamics simulations for vehicle soiling analysis

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

   Author : Josep Plana Riu; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : An increasing amount of sensors is being placed in cars in order to monitor their vicinities, which performance is highly dependant on the driving conditions, in which weather has a big role, and thus water contamination is a topic that will increase its importance in the future of the car industry. One of these sources of contamination is self-soiling: how cars get dirty because of their own tires. READ MORE

3. 2. Analysis of Observed Discrepancies in Precipitation Measurements in the Complex Terrain of East-Iceland

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

   Author : Páll Ágúst Þórarinsson; [2021]
   Keywords : Precipitation; precipitation measurements; weather observation; complex terrain; weather regimes; Iceland; Nederbörd; nederbördmätningar; väder observationer; komplex terräng; vädersituationen; Island;

   Abstract : Spatial distribution of precipitation in complex terrain can be very uneven and there are many factors to consider when studying it. The goal of this study was such a problem; to analyse the difference in observed annual precipitation in the complex terrain of Seyðisfjörður, a fjord in East-Iceland. The study was carried out in three parts. READ MORE

4. 3. Land cover changes in Southern Sweden from the mid-Holocene to present day: insights for ecosystem service assessments

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Robert O'Dwyer; [2019]
   Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Götaland; Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm; Fossil Pollen; Ecosystem Services; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Climate change and human impact play a huge role in the sustainability and development of ecosystems and the services they offer to societies over temporal and spatial scales. Fossil pollen-based estimates provide unique information on past land cover change, but to date there are not many methods able to create spatially continuous maps and have a fine scale of land cover changes inferred from pollen information.

5. 4. Etablerade hästsportprofilers syn på användning av täcken

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

   Author : Isabella Svensson; Sofia Wittlock; [2018]
   Keywords : termoneutral zon; thermoneutral zone; lower critical temperature; climatinc energi demand; environment;

   Abstract : Horses are used in a variety of disciplines partly as a hobby as well as for competitions at the elite level. Regardless of how the horse is used, the horse owner is obliged to help the horse with its heat balance with a blanket if necessary. However, there is a widespread lack of knowledge on when to use the blanket and if it really is needed. READ MORE

6. 5. Online Regime Switching Vector Autoregression Incorporating Spatio-temporal Aspects for Short Term Wind Power Forecasting

   University essay from KTH/Elkraftteknik

   Author : Sean Gilleran; [2017]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This master thesis examines short term wind power forecasting time series models focusing on regimes conditioned to meteorological conditions and the incorporation of spatio-temporal aspects. Novel regime switching autoregressive and vector autoregressive models are proposed, implemented in a .NET framework, and evaluated. READ MORE
