Dredging Processes I: The Cutting of Sand, Clay & Rock - Theory
No full textThis book gives an overview of cutting theories. It starts with a generic model, which is valid for all types of soil (sand, clay and rock) after which the specifics of dry sand, water saturated sand, clay, rock and hyperbaric rock are covered. For each soil type small blade angles and large blade angles, resulting in a wedge in front of the blade, are discussed. The failure mechanism of sand, dry and water saturated, is the so called Shear Type. The failure mechanism of clay is the so called Flow Type, but under certain circumstances also the Curling Type and the Tear Type are possible. Rock will usually fail in a brittle way. This can be brittle tensile failure, the Tear Type, for small blade angles, but it can also be brittle shear failure, which is of the Shear Type of failure mechanism for larger blade angles. Under hyperbaric conditions rock may also fail in a more ductile way according to the Flow Type of failure mechanism. For each case considered, the equations/model for the cutting forces, power and specific energy are given. The models are verified with laboratory research, mainly at the Delft University of Technology, but also with data from literature.Marine & Transport TechnologyMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin

Equity research - Kering S.A.
No full textMestrado em FinançasEquity research a Kering S.A com o intuito de determinar um determinado price target para o valores das acções da Kering S.A a 31 de Dezembro de 2019.
No processo para determinar o price target foram utilizados 3 modelos de avaliação distintos, Discounted Cash Flow Model, Dividend Discount Model e Multiples Valuation dos quais se obteve um price target de 576.44 EUR representando um upside de 8.9% face ao preço base utilizado para esta analise de 520.10 EUR de 1 de Julho de 2019.This project is mainly comprised on an Equity Research of Kering S.A. to determine a certain price target of Kering's stock by 31st December 2019. This assessment is mostly assembled by a set of assumptions, made the author of these document, for the time period of 2019F-2023F which reflect the historical performance of the company and the current market settings that may impact such target price.
In regards of the computations around the price target definition, three valuation models were covered, the Discounted Cash Flow Model, which discounted all future cash flows generated in the period under analysis and through perpetuity, totaling a price of 580.12 EUR / share, and the Dividend Discount Model and Multiples Valuation Model which totaled 567.00 EUR and 582.22 EUR respectively. Based on these there valuation models, by assigning an equal weight to each one of them, a price target of 576.44 EUR was reached translating into a 8.9% upside potential regarding the reference date of analysis of 525.10 EUR in 1st July 2019.
Once, computed the price target, the final recommendation for these equity research document was defined based on the risk criteria that better described Kering S.A market environment settings, providing this way a solid statement for Kering's share price within the period under analysisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Geographic profiling in Nazi Berlin: fact and fiction
Full text linkGeographic profiling uses the locations of connected crime sites to make inferences about the probable location of the offender’s ‘anchor point’ (usually a home, but sometimes a workplace). We show how the basic ideas of the method were used in a Gestapo investigation that formed the basis of a classic German novel about domestic resistance to the Nazis during the Second World War. We use modern techniques to re-analyse this case, and show that these successfully locate the Berlin home address of Otto and Elise Hampel, who had distributed hundreds of anti-Nazi postcards, after analysing just 34 of the 214 incidents that took place before their arrest. Our study provides the first empirical evidence to support the suggestion that analysis of minor terrorism-related acts such as graffiti and theft could be used to help locate terrorist bases before more serious incidents occur
