1. 1. Hosting Capacity Methods Considering Complementarity between Solar and Wind Power : A Case Study on a Swedish Regional Grid

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

   Author : Emma Andersson; Maja Abrahamsson Bolstad; [2023]
   Keywords : hosting capacity; hosting capacity methods; renewable power generation; power grid; power system analysis; complementarity; solar power; wind power; deterministic method; time series method;

   Abstract : The demand for electrical power is growing due to factors such as population growth, urbanisation, and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. To be able to keep up with the changes in electricity demand, the Swedish power grid must connect more renewable power generation, but also  increase its transmission capacity. READ MORE

3. 2. End of Life Wind Turbine Blade Recycling : Challenges From an Environmental, Economic and Practical Viewpoint

   University essay from

   Author : Daniel Hagfeldt; [2022]
   Keywords : Wind power; Wind turbine; Wind Turbine Blade; Recycling; Glass fibre; Carbon fibre; Centre-of-gravity method;

   Abstract : The goal of the European Union is to make strides towards a circular economy. This means recycling or re-using as much of the material in the economic system as possible. The wind industry faces a great challenge in the years to come as huge quantities of increasingly larger wind turbines reach the end of their service-life. READ MORE

4. 3. Dynamic Performance of a Tall Building to Earthquake Loading : Finding the optimum mass and stiffness

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Andrés Alonso San Segundo; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : With the increasing cost of land, the development of ultra-high performance concrete, and the technological advancements in equipment and machinery, we are able to construct and refurbish skyscrapers like never before. How they are built, what materials they use, or what structural system defines them, all affect their dynamic response, which in the end is the combination of the stiffness and mass, two key parameters in engineering of tall buildings.

   Keywords : Wind Farm Internal Collector Network; Active Power Loss; Cable Loading;

   Abstract : The purpose of this study is to model an operational wind farm in DIgSILENT PowerFactory® using manufactures specifications and investigate the active power energy losses. The model is tested with the operational recorded data from the wind farm and is validated. READ MORE

6. 5. Making the connection : Are post-tensioned CLT walls an economically sound option?

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

   Author : Jakob Mehlig; Elisabeth Wade; [2021]
   Keywords : CLT; post-tensioned; shear wall; pre-stressed; cost; connections; stability;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to compare the cost of post-tensioned connection systems with conventional connections for the transferal of uplift forces in CLT stabilising walls. The desire for taller timber buildings has increased over time, in part due to environmental aspects but also to meet demands from an urbanizing population. READ MORE
