  1. 1. Establishing High-Temperature Models for Leakage Current in Gated Lateral Bipolar Junction Transistors

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Jimmy Atterstig; [2024]
    Keywords : Electronics; leakage current; brokaw bandgap; semiconductor physics; gauss-newton;

    Abstract : Power-efficient circuits are a vital step in moving towards a greener future. Battery life can get substantially improved by decreasing the amount of power a circuit needs. Lower power also leads to less excess heat generated. READ MORE

  2. 2. Peak Load Shaving Strategies of an Office Building : A Case Study at AirSon

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Azin Farzam; [2024]
    Keywords : Shifting Peak Load; Electricity Reduction; Measuring Peak Load; Electricity Efficiency; Building Management System; Electricity Consumption.;

    Abstract : Introduction: The global demand for renewable energy is expected to grow annually due to rising electricity consumption and economic and regulatory incentives. Efficient consumption and management of electricity consumption can support this trend (shifting from fossil resources to renewable resources) and benefit companies economically by reducing peak loads, reducing subscription costs, and protecting companies' power systems and networks.

  3. 3. Exploring Urban Land Cover Changes and the Effect on Nocturnal Air Temperature Dynamics in Helsingborg - A temperature modeling made with TAPM

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Amanda Bäck; [2023-10-09]
    Keywords : Nocturnal Air Temperature; Intra-Urban Heat Island; Land Cover Classification; Deep learning; The Air Pollution Model TAPM ; Land Cover Change;

    Abstract : In light of increasing global temperatures, urban areas face growing challenges related to heat stress. Alterations in land cover (LC) within cities contribute to changes in the intra-urban climate, predominantly driven by the replacement of vegetated surfaces with impermeable materials. READ MORE

  4. 4. Planning for heat resilience - A comparative study between Greater Gothenburg´s and Skåne´s work on heat

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Rebecca Johansson; [2023-08-17]
    Keywords : climate adaptation; heat mitigation; heat stress; urban planning;

    Abstract : Due to climate change, it is expected that heat waves will be intensified and occur more frequently in Sweden; hence, heat-related risks are anticipated to increase, i.e., morbidity and mortality. Through heat mitigation strategies, risks associated with heat can be prevented. READ MORE

  5. 5. Pedestrian movement and exposure to heat stress in Gothenburg, Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Madeleine Cleverstam Vikström; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : urban climate; heat stress; Space Syntax; pedestrian movement; urban morphology;

    Abstract : An area in Gothenburg, Sweden, representing various planning designs and microclimates, were investigated, in order to estimate how the study area manifests potential pedestrian movement patterns and urban climate conditions in terms of heat stress. The study is based on the Geographical Information System (GIS) where pedestrian movement and heat stress is calculated. READ MORE
