  1. 11. Atypical VRE Variability in Power System Planning and Performance: Illustrated by the case studies of Guinea-Bissau and Turkey

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Albertine Potter van Loon; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study aims to identify and quantify (1) how Typical Meteorological Year (TMY)-based power systems perform when exposed to atypical variability and (2) how TMY-centric power system design differs from full variability design. A simplified least cost power system planning model, including a novel performance analysis formulation, is proposed and tested for Guinea-Bissau and Turkey, covering both main Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) technologies, solar PV and wind turbines.

  3. 12. Feasibility of new Dark Matter search at ATLAS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : Peter Stratmann; [2017]
    Keywords : Dark Matter; ATLAS; Trigger-Level Analysis; Calibration; Level 1; Mediator; Jets; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the idea of calibrating Level 1 jets. These are used in the Trigger-Level Analysis at the ATLAS in the search for a new mediator, in this case between Standard Model and Dark Matter particles. In the thesis, the idea to calibrate the Level 1 jets is investigated. READ MORE

  4. 13. Investigating Seasonal Snow in Northern Sweden – a Multi-Layer Snow Pack Model and Observations from Abisko Scientific Research Station Provide Clues

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Anna Staffansdotter; [2017]
    Keywords : Snow characteristics; snow layer development; snow pack modelling; climate change; Abisko Scientific Research Station; Snöegenskaper; snöskiktutveckling; snöpackmodell; klimatförändringar; Abisko naturvetenskapliga station;

    Abstract : Meteorological parameters determine the physical properties of snow precipitating from the atmosphere, but snow layers also continue to develop within the snow pack after the precipitation event. New characteristics form depending on temperature fluctuations, interaction with the soil, overburden compression, rain-on-snow events and more. READ MORE

  5. 14. Går det att generera ett hjälpmedel för att dimensionera vägtrummor?

    University essay from SLU/School for Forest Management

    Author : Henrik Ådén; [2015]
    Keywords : avrinningsområde; underdimensionerad; skogsbilvägar;

    Abstract : Every year the Swedish infrastructure is afflicted with more or less severe damages caused by water. The damages are often caused by flooding due to underdimensioned culverts. READ MORE

  6. 15. Relationship between tree species composition and phenology extracted from satellite data in Swedish forests

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Stefan Arvidsson; [2015]
    Keywords : MODIS; forests mapping; fractional mapping; satellite derived phenology; GIS; Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; TIMESAT; NDVI; EVI; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This study investigated the “relationship between tree species composition and phenology extracted from satellite data in Swedish forests”. The proposed method investigated in this study aims at mapping the fractional composition of deciduous/coniferous tree species and also the fractional composition of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and several pine (Pinus sp.
