1. UTTRYCK = SVAR
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaperSammanfattning : The focus of this literary study is to examine students’ misconceptions about the equal sign as well as giving upper secondary teacher the tools required to promote students’ understanding of the equal sign. To explore these misconceptions further, the study is framed around three research questions: What misconceptions does students’ have about the equal sign and why do they have them? What consequences do these misconceptions have for students’ mathematical ability? What can you do as a teacher to increase students' understanding of the equal sign and the concept of equality? The study suggests that students mainly struggle with the equal sign due to a unidirectional and dynamic understanding which leads to a series of different problems. LÄS MER
2. Optimizing within the Supply Chain: A Mathematical Model for Inventory Optimization with respect to Demand Planning
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : This thesis examines how to design a mathematical inventory model for a ”Fast Moving Consumer Goods”-company (FMCG-company), which determines the optimal reorder point and order quantity such that the average inventory cost is minimized. The thesis was made in collaboration with a ”Software as a Service”- company which provided the data containing information about the products and inventory management of one of their customers, a FMCG-company.

3. Wind Turbine Recovery Forecasting using Survival Analysis
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : The goal of this thesis is to present a methodology for predicting time until recovery of failed wind turbines. The necessity is motivated by the potential for more accurate wind energy export forecasts. The current approach rests entirely on having an expert examine the turbine and produce a time estimate.

4. The History of the Dirichlet Problem for Laplace’s Equation
Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Analys och didaktik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenSammanfattning : This thesis aims to provide an introduction to the field of potential theory at an undergraduate level, by studying an important mathematical problem in the field, namely the Dirichlet problem. By examining the historical development of different methods for solving the problem in increasingly general contexts, and the mathematical concepts which were established to support these methods, the aim is to provide an overview of various basic techniques in the field of potential theory, as well as a summary of the fundamental results concerning the Dirichlet problem in Euclidean space.

5. Risk Assessment of Digital Assets – Insurance Applications in Cryptocurrencies and NFTs
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikSammanfattning : The aim of the project is to develop a framework for an insurance policy for digital assets. The project comprised several stages, starting with the identification of risks associated with these assets. Policyholders were then categorized into two groups based on a predefined rating factor.
