   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waterborne public transportation; commuter ferry; modular design; operational requirements; ranking method; sustainable performance; ice operations; ice-hull Interaction; ice load; ice properties; kollektivtrafik på vatten; modulärt färjekoncept; modulär design; rankningsmetod; hållbarhetsparametrar; isbelastning; isförhållanden; isegenskaper; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : There has been a recent surge in interest in waterborne public transportation (WPT). Publictransport providers (PTP) are seeing its potential in complementing the existing transportnetwork and alleviating urban traffic congestion and pollution. But the adoption of WPTtoday is challenging due to a series of technical and implementation challenges. READ MORE

4. 2. Building study-related relationships : How student relationships and readiness affect academic outcome in higher education

   Author : Annika Maria Fjelkner Pihl; Centre for Engineering Education CEE; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Academic outcome; commuter; readiness; higher education; social network analysis; multiplex relations; Academic outcome; Multiplex relations; Commuters; Higher education; Social network analysis; Readiness;

   Abstract : The present dissertation explores students’ perception of their own readiness for higher education and students’ study related relations and the effect on academic outcome. The complexity of student engagement and academic success means that it is relevant to conduct in-depth studies of particular student populations, to explore how certain factors play out in that specific context.
