Utsläpp av växthusgaser sedan mitten av 1800-talet har orsakat klimatförändring som bland annat leder till en ökning av både avsmältning i kryosfären och värmeutvidgning i haven, två faktorer som gjort att havsnivån stigit allt snabbare under det senaste århundradet. Havsnivåhöjning kan öka förekomsten av översvämningar av land, vägar och järnvägar samt påverka miljöobjekt, och på grund av detta iThis study uses GIS analyses to investigate the risk that increasing sea levels and highest projected highwater pose by increasing the risk of inundation on state-owned roads and railways as well as environmental objects in their side areas. This is done through an assessment of sea level rise projections and a risk analysis, which points out where vulnerable features are located and provides time

Vi har försökt hjälpa vidareutvecklingen av självkörande bilar med hjälp av att identifiera och klassificera parkeringsplatser i flygbilder. Problemet har visat sig vara svårt, och kanske inte kan lösas helt med hjälp av endast maskininlärningstekniker. Det finns dock tecken på att lösningen går mot rätt riktning, då vi kan se att systemet hittar de flesta av parkeringsplatserna som finns i exemplIn this thesis, the viability of using Convolutional Neural Networks to detect parking spaces using aerial imagery has been evaluated. Three state of the art networks have been tested - YOLOv3, RetinaNet, and Mask R-CNN. A dataset of urban parking lots and corresponding annotations was generated from scratch using a custom built GUI to annotate automatically generated images of parking lots from O

Från ett presspulver och ett nytt bindemedelssystem har en ny sammansättning för metallformsprutning utvecklats. Kraven som ställts på nya sammansättningen var att de ingående komponenterna ska vara homogent fördelade och att sammansättningen ska ha de rätta reologiska egenskaperna. Presspulvret bestod huvudsakligen av volframkarbid, kobolt och polyetylenglykol. Presspulvret blandades med ytterlig

Sweden has a proportional electoral system where the seats in parliament are distributed according to the modified St. Laguë method. In 2015, the Swedish parliament approved amendments to the electoral law in order to improve proportionality in the national elections.

Hur jobbar kommuner egentligen med ekologisk hållbarhet vid planering av externhandel? - En fallstudie av Kristianstad och C4-shopping Planerings- och beslutsprocessen gällande handel involverar miljöfrågor på flera sätt men dessa behandlas ofta separat från andra frågor, många aktörer i processen anser sig inte vara ansvariga och flera miljömål förbises till förmån för familjeshopping. ShoppingOut of town shopping is a growing business that is no longer just about the human need for food and clothes, it has also become an health- and environmental issue. Shopping centres located outside of- and in the outskirts of the city centres are raising the amount of car traffic and also the greenhouse gases. Managing these centres is thus both a global and a local issue which the municipal planne

Japan lies on an area frequently hit by typhoons while city functions are clustered along the flat coastal areas, hence Japan has experienced lots of storm surge disasters up to the present. Coastal areas along the Suo-nada Sea also have the vulnerability against storm surge and in the past Typhoon 18 in 1999, Typhoon 16 and 18 in 2004 made remarkable damages in the areas. Furthermore, due to glob

Tidigare forskning beskriver såväl dåliga arbetsvillkor som en otydlighet kring vad arbetet som personlig assistent innebär.

Classification of surfaces in the near field using millimeter-wave radar commonly considers the use of polarization based methods for road condition monitoring. When a surface consists of larger structures one instead wishes to monitor the surface topography. Analysis of scattering from rough surfaces is highly complex and relies on prior knowledge of surface structure. In this work a device movin
