  3. 32. Front and rear irradiation distribution for different bifacial PV systems : Simulation and evaluation of the irradiation distribution on the solar PV panels at different albedo conditions using ray-tracing software

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Soufiane El Madi; Shadi Abubaker; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Bifacial photovoltaic (PV) modules are a type of solar panel that has the capability to capture sunlight and generate electricity from both the front and rear sides of the modules. This work focuses on evaluating the irradiation on both the front and rear sides of bifacial PV modules for various system designs (vertical, tilted, and elevated) and under different ground albedo conditions (grass, snow, and bare soil) using ray-tracing software.

  5. 34. Evaluating DInSAR for measuring seasonal elevation dynamics at the Vissátvuopmi palsa mire complex in Northern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : André Farjami; [2022-09-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During recent years the palsa mires of Fennoscandia have reported to be undergoing extensive lateral degradation, and in a warming environment the palsa mires of Sweden among others are threatened to thaw completely by the end of this century. Since subarctic peatlands account for 30% of the global soil organic carbon storage, small degradation changes in these areas globally, can potentially change the greenhouse gas emissions on a worldwide scale.
