  1. 1. Comparative Analysis of Modern Energy Systems for Ice Rinks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Pendar Hemati; [2023]
    Keywords : Ice rinks; refrigeration; heat recovery; CO2; ammonia; propane; Pistas de hielo; refrigeración; recuperación de calor; CO2; amoníaco; propano;

    Abstract : Ice rinks are highly energy-intensive commercial buildings with an average annual energy consumption of 1,000 MWh, most of it being used to cover the simultaneous heating and cooling demands. The aim of this thesis is to find the most energy efficient energy system for ice rinks by evaluating different system modifications and refrigerants. READ MORE

  2. 2. Control of an Over-Actuated Vehicle for Autonomous Driving and Energy Optimization : Development of a cascade controller to solve the control allocation problem in real-time on an autonomous driving vehicle

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gianmarco Grandi; [2023]
    Keywords : LTV-MPC Linear Time-Varying Model Predictive Controller ; Trajectory following; Energy consumption; Vehicle stability; Vehicle model; Real-time performance; LTV-MPC Controllo a predizione del modello lineare tempo variabile ; Inseguimento di traiettoria; Consumo energetico; Stabilità del veicolo; Modello del veicolo; Prestazioni in tempo reale; LTV-MPC Linjär tidsvariabel modellförutsägande styrning ; spårföljning; energiförbrukning; fordonsstabilitet; fordonsmodell; prestanda i realtid;

    Abstract : An Over-Actuated (OA) vehicle is a system that presents more control variables than degrees of freedom. Therefore, more than one configuration of the control input can drive the system to a desired state in the state space, and this redundancy can be exploited to fulfill other tasks or solve further problems.

  3. 3. Geographical Mapping of the Building Envelope Surface Optimal Optical Properties Minimizing the Energy used to Maintain Indoor Conditions

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Alejandro Rodríguez-Urdaneta; [2020]
    Keywords : buildings; energy efficiency; energy savings; energy simulations.; edificios; eficiencia energética; ahorro de energía; simulaciones energéticas.;

    Abstract : Several studies have shown that the buildings envelope optical properties are important in terms of energy use and thermal comfort level. However, no study has been found in regard of the optimal optical properties for the building envelope. READ MORE

  4. 4. Voices of the flight-free visionary : an overview of the ‘staying on the ground’ narratives and their position in relation to (neoliberal) mobility hegemony

    University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Author : Sebastian Arrosamena Mellgren; [2020]
    Keywords : Sustainability Science; Climate change; Sweden; Transformation; Aviation; Frames; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is encouraging profound and rapid transformation in every economic sector to mitigate escalating climate change. In this context, a public and political debate about aviation as a high-carbon source has emerged in Sweden with growing numbers of people declaring that they are “staying on the ground”. READ MORE

  5. 5. Energy-water nexus in Mexico: A network-based approach of polycentric governance.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

    Author : Ricardo Gómez Zamudio; [2019]
    Keywords : Energy-water nexus; polycentric governance; social network analyis; sustainability science; Mexico; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : By 2050, sixty percent of human population worldwide is going to live in cities. This will increase natural resource consumption to provide products and services in cities. Additionally, current policy making is done through a silo thinking mindset where unintended consequences can undermine natural resources availability. READ MORE
