1. 1. When is Electric Freight Cost Competitive? : Computational modeling and simulation of total cost of ownership for electric truck fleets

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för ekonomisk och industriell utveckling

   Författare :Anton Zackrisson; [2023]
   Nyckelord :electric freight; battery-electric trucks; total cost of ownership; decision making under deep uncertainty DMDU ; cost-competitiveness; exploratory modeling and analysis EMA ; EMA workbench; quasi-Monte Carlo method; VRP; EVRP; elektrifiering; godstransport; elektriska lastbilar; total ägandekostnad; kostnadskonkurrenskraft; ruttoptimering;

   Sammanfattning : Battery electric trucks (BETs) offer environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon emissions and enhanced energy efficiency but have been challenged with economic viability compared to conventional internal combustion engine trucks (ICETs) caused by substantial acquisition costs, limited charging infrastructure, and concerns regarding range and payload capacity.  Previous studies focus on TCO at the vehicle or policy level but overlook the system and firm-level impacts.

3. 2. Improving term structure measurements by incorporating steps in a multiple yield curve framework

   Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

   Författare :Gustav Villwock; Clara Rydholm; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Finance; Interest rates; Term structure measurement; Monte Carlo; Financial mathematics; Yield curve; Policy rates; Multiple yield curve framework; Stochastic programming; Risk factor modeling; Hedging; Performance attribution; Principle component analysis; GARCH; Maximum likelihood estimation; Copula;

   Sammanfattning : By issuing interest rate derivative contracts, market makers such as large banks are exposed to undesired risk. There are several methods for banks to hedge themselves against this type of risk; one such method is the stochastic programming model developed by Blomvall and Hagenbjörk (2022). LÄS MER

4. 3. Bayesian Off-policy Sim-to-Real Transfer for Antenna Tilt Optimization

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Författare :Albin Larsson Forsberg; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Simulation to Reality; Coverage and Capacity Optimization; Remote Electrical Tilt; Reinforcement Learning; Bayesian Optimization; Domain Randomization; Off- policy Estimation; Simulering till Verklighet; Täckning och Kapacitetsoptimering; Fjärrstyrning av Elektrisk Lutning; Förstärkningsinlärning; Bayesiansk Optimering; Domänrandomisering; Off- policyskattning;

   Sammanfattning : Choosing the correct angle of electrical tilt in a radio base station is essential when optimizing for coverage and capacity. A reinforcement learning agent can be trained to make this choice. If the training of the agent in the real world is restricted or even impossible, alternative methods can be used. LÄS MER

5. 4. The Tax Effect on Capital Structure: An empirical investigation of tax shield utilization following the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

   Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

   Författare :Adam Rodin; Patrik Magnusson; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Financial policy; difference-in-differences; capital structure; static trade-off theory; dynamic trade-off theory; Business and Economics;

   Sammanfattning : Mixed support regarding firm capital structure reaction to the Tax Cut and Jobs Act is found. In the main difference-in-differences estimation, support is found for the predictions of trade-off theory after the inclusion of control variables aiming to capture shareholder distribution and capital structure optimization.

7. 5. Integrating Energy Demand and Ability to Pay in the Design of Decentralised Energy Supply : A Case Study in Rural Nepal

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Författare :Óscar Monés Pederzini; [2019]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Access to electricity is essential for socioeconomic growth, especially in developing countries. However, over 1.1 billion people still do not have access to modern sources of energy. LÄS MER
