Electrical independence of an island with green hydrogen production - Case study of the island of Groix

This thesis investigate the possibility for a island to be electrically powered only by wind turbines as this form of energy source is variable. There is a need to store it. In this thesis we look at the possibility for hydrogen to be the energy carrier in such a system. This results in the use of the surplus electricity produced by wind turbines to produce hydrogen, store it and use it later to p

Evaluative neutralisation as a means to reduce social desirability in the SDO-7

An evaluative neutralisation process, whereby questionnaire items are phrased to be less evaluative, was used to create a new less socially desirable version of the social dominance orientation scale (SDO7). The main goal is to counteract the persistent floor effect which has affected the scale since its inception. The rationale behind the suggested correction is rooted with the problem of social

The what, how and why of finite projective planes

Ändliga projektiva plan finns i skärningspunkten av flera till synes orelaterade grenar av matematiken. Denna tes utforskar hur ändliga projektiva plan uppstår, både ur den väldigt konkreta och visuella projektiva geometrin, som först utvecklades av renässansens konstnärer för att avbilda objekt i den verkliga världen på en tvådimensionell yta med hjälp av perspektiv. Samt utforskar den hur planenThis thesis defines the finite projective plane and the affine projective plane. A method of construction is defined for the field planes by extension of the affine plane constructed from the vector space over a finite field. The thesis explores for which orders planes can and cannot be constructed, in particular, for the prime powers there exist planes. For n=6 a computer search is conducted usin
