  1. 21. Finite element modelling of strained nanowire heterostructures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Alexander Grape Wyke; [2019]
    Keywords : Strain; nanowire; heterostructure; physics; nanophysics; COMSOL; simulation; lattice; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : When two materials with different lattice constants are grown together, this generates stress between them, and therefore strain. This strain causes them to have different thermal and electrical properties, and this is especially important on the nanoscale where changes have large impacts. READ MORE

  3. 22. What are the uncertainties and potential impacts of "Brexit"/the EU referendum result on the UK wind energy sector?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Robert Mummery; [2019]
    Keywords : Brexit; Wind power; UK; Wind energy; Energy; Policy;

    Abstract : This study examines the potential effects of Brexit on the wind power industry within the UK. It became apparent that in order to reach the objective that the approach of the research needed to be broadened as it was found that Brexit has potential effects in many areas of the UK's electricity industry, including the import and export of electricity and the associated fuels used in the generation of electricity.

  4. 23. Nanogrid For Renewable Off-Grid System

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Chukwuebuka Louis Onyia; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Power grids utilize large central generating stations which entails the use of long transmission lines to deliver power to consumers. This approach poses some challenges such as line loses and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission into the environment from the burning of fossil fuels from such large generators. READ MORE

  5. 24. COUNTERMEASURES AGAINST COORDINATED CYBER-ATTACKS TOWARDS POWER GRID SYSTEMS : A systematic literature study

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Jonatan Johansson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A study on countermeasures against coordinated cyber-attacks (CCA) towards power grid systems has been carried out. A coordinated cyber-attack is a cyber-based attack where multiple attackers use multiple attack-mechanisms towards multiple targets in a coordinated fashion. READ MORE

  6. 25. How much can an increased solar power production actually benefit rural, energy-poor areas of Africa?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi med statistik

    Author : Anton Fürle; Olivia Sandström; [2018-07-03]
    Keywords : renewable energy; solar power; access to electricity; rural population; Africa; panel data; fixed effects; Environmental Kuznets curve; Samhällsvetenskapligt miljövetarprogram;

    Abstract : There has been a surge in solar power in the last decade which has opened up possibilities for rural, energy poor areas to become electrified. Access to electricity is fundamental for economic growth and human prosperity but still around one billion people lack access to electricity, where the majority is located in Sub-Saharan Africa.
