Går det att simulera hur en mikrofonport påverkar en inbyggd mikrofons ljudupptagningsförmåga? Det kan vara komplicerat att förstå hur utformningen på en mikrofonport påverkar ljudet som en mikrofon uppfattar, även de minsta förändringarna påverkar! Mikrofonporten är den lilla öppningen i höljet av en produkt, så som en telefon eller dator, som tillåter ljudvågor att nå produktens inbyggda mikroThe aim of this Master’s thesis project was to investigate whether it would be possible to simulate, using either Boundary Element Method (BEM) or Lumped Element Method (LEM) modelling, how microphone port design impacts an embedded microphone’s ability to capture sound accurately. The project utilized Design of Experiments (DoE) methodology. Key design parameters impacting the performance of an

The removal and neglect of climate policies - a process known as climate policy dismantling (CPD) - both nationally and internationally, is a growing field of critical climate research that has significant implications for long-term climate adaptation globally. Climate activists on social media have the potential to be both influential and representative of wider CPD discourse, and so provide an i

This master thesis investigates the Service Design concept in connection to the Employee-driven Innovation (EDI) field. The Service Design concept entails both a mindset and a toolbox, involving principles such as human-centricity, collaboration and holistic understanding. Previous research has called for more structured approaches to the bottom-up innovation and the EDI process. Furthermore, rese

The human central nervous system is highly complex, and doublet discharge (two signal spikes in unusually short succession) behavior observed in motor neuron output remains only partially understood. Doublets play a key role in rapid force production during muscle activation. While computational models that capture this behavior exist, their complexity is too computationally demanding for use outs

Studiens huvudsyfte var att undersöka sambandet mellan gymnasieelevers attityder till brottslighet och deras nivå av känsla av sammanhang (KASAM), samt om detta samband skiljer sig mellan pojkar och flickor.
