  1. 1. Anticipating Glacier Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs): an impact-based forecasting framework for managing GLOF risks in Nepal.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Grace Muir; [2023]
    Keywords : Anticipatory Action; Impact-based Forecasting; Glacier Lake Outburst Flood; Nepal; Risk-informed Early Action; Prediction; Disaster Risk Management; Science General;

    Abstract : Glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are an increasingly documented threat across the Himalayan region, wherein Nepal is situated. GLOFs involve a rapid discharge of water from a lake situated at the side, front, within, beneath, or on the surface of a glacier. READ MORE

  3. 2. Unlocking the crystal ball: Deciphering recessions through dynamic relationships among leading indicators in Sweden

    University essay from Jönköping University/IHH, Nationalekonomi

    Author : Mariyan Traykov; Sina Mohseni; [2023]
    Keywords : VAR; analysis; economics; forecasting; recessions;

    Abstract : Forecasting economic recessions has been a major topic of interest for economists, decisionmakers and the public alike. In this study we ventured to analyse how changes in economic output or GDP is related to changes in consumer sentiment and house prices in the Swedish economy. READ MORE

  4. 3. Fabrication and Characterization of Bulk Nanostructured Cobalt Antimonide based Skutterudites Materials for Thermoelectric Applications.

    University essay from KTH/Material- och nanofysik

    Author : Mohammed Amin Hossain; [2015]
    Keywords : Thermoelectric; Bulk nanostructured; Skutterudites; Cobalt Antimonide; Ball milling; Spark Plasma Sintering;

    Abstract : The increasing price of oil, global warming and rapid industrial growth has drawn much attention to renewable energy technologies over the last few decades. The total energy consumption is estimated to increase 1.4% per year globally. About 90% of this energy supply is generated through fossil fuel combustion with a typical efficiency of 30-40%.

  5. 4. Risk management of groundwater drawdown in settlement sensitive areas.

    University essay from KTH/Mark- och vattenteknik

    Author : Victoria Tisell; [2013]
    Keywords : Groundwater model; Settlement; Crystal Ball with Monte Carlo simulation; Risk analysis; Deterministic; Probabilistic;

    Abstract : A new method for estimation of risks at settlement calculations is presented. By quantifying uncertainties of settlement calculations, it is possible to make risk analysis and to compare the costs of risk reducing efforts with the benefit these efforts would lead to. READ MORE

  6. 5. Correlation between process parameters and milling efficiency

    University essay from Oorganisk kemi

    Author : Anna Johansson; [2012]
    Keywords : Milling; Ball Mill; WC; Cemented Carbide; Particle Size;

    Abstract : An experimental ball-milling study was performed to compare the deagglomeration behavior and the evolution of the particle size distribution with increasing milling time of two relatively coarse WC powders used for the production of cemented carbide cutting tools. The WC-powders were found to have distinctly different particle size distributions and particle morphologies prior to milling. READ MORE
