  1. 1. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

  2. 2. Purchasing and digitalization in an era of turbulence

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk logistik

    Author : Vishal Natesan; Emil Sarajlic; [2023]
    Keywords : Supplying; digitisation; digitalization; Artificial Intelligence; Turbulence; Delivery performance; Duni Group; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Abstract Title: Purchasing and digitalization in an era of turbulence Authors: Emil Sarajlic & Vishal Natesan Supervisor: Wilbert Baerwaldt, Director Sourcing and Value Chain at Duni AB Louise Bildsten, Department of Industrial Management & Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Examiner: Jan Olhager, Department of Industrial Management & Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Background: This research delves into the uncertainties and challenges encountered in global supply chain operations, exacerbated by unpredictable events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2021 Suez Canal obstruction. These disruptions can lead to stock-outs, poor capacity utilization, and the need for expensive buffers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Indigenous Peoples and the shifting paradigm on conservation - From the myth of untouched nature to the role of human cultures in protecting biodiversity

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för strategisk hållbar utveckling

    Author : Nigel Maduro; Carlos Ambriz; Lisa Heyman; Mari Buoro; [2023]
    Keywords : conservation policymaking; Indigenous Peoples; biodiversity; cultural diversity; traditional ecological knowledge; sustainability;

    Abstract : This master thesis explores the shifting paradigm in conservation, moving away from the myth behind the preservationist approach that separates humans from nature towards a more inclusive conservationist approach. The study focuses on the role of Indigenous Peoples in this evolving paradigm and examines factors that influence their ability to participate in and influence conservation debates and policies.

  4. 4. Privacy threat analysis and evaluation of Privacy Enhancing Technologies for the integration of 3D Scene Graphs in smart buildings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Alejandra Mugica Trapaga; [2023]
    Keywords : 3DSG; DFD; Hydra; IoT; LINDDUN; PETs; Privacy; Threat modeling.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The recent advent of 3DSG in the computer vision domain has brought powerful high-level representations of 3D environments. These representations strive to mimic human perception and facilitate the extraction of meaningful insight from visual data. READ MORE

  5. 5. Identification of key factors that support and limit action plan implementation after a SimEx and suggestions on how to overcome the challenges

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet; Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI)

    Author : Zeth Söderlund; [2023]
    Keywords : simulation exercise; evaluation; action plan; implementation; challenges; usefulness; improve; learning; lessons learnt; debrief session; capacity development; capacity strengthening; capacity building; disaster risk management; disaster risk reduction; emergency preparedness; disaster preparedness; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : It is difficult to prepare for events with large-scale consequences and low probability. Simulation exercises (SimEx) provide the opportunity to improve preparedness through strengthening capabilities before an actual emergency. Conducting a SimEx could be very expensive and therefore the SimEx should be thoroughly evaluated. READ MORE
