  1. 21. EXPLORING THE POTENTIAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF USING OLD WIND FARMS AREAS TO LIMIT THE ELECTRICAL GENERATION DEFICIT IN SE4 SWEDEN - A REPOWERING INVESTIGATION

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Mohamad Mubarak Drgham; [2023]
    Keywords : Swedish bidding zones; SE4; Electrical Generation Deficit; Wind Energy; Solar Energy; Storage System; Repowering; Wind Farms.;

    Abstract : In the southern part of Sweden, specifically in price zone SE4, there is an increasing cost of electricity and a contemporary supply deficit. This research aims to elaborate on the deficit in electrical generation to consumption in SE4. The found values indicate a 42% unmet demand, equaling 5.152 TWh annually. READ MORE

  3. 22. Methods for local energy and climate planning : A Case stuudy on the Urban Community of Dunkirk

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Sacha Thibault; [2023]
    Keywords : Energy transition - Climate and energy policy - Renewable energy - Decision-Support Tools - Local authorities; Energiomställning - Klimat- och energipolitik - Förnybar energi - Verktyg för beslutsstöd - Lokala myndigheter;

    Abstract : Energy management concerns were raised in France after the oil crisis in the 1970s. From then, the local actors developed policies to better control the energy production and consumption on the territories. Climate considerations and the need to limit greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions were then added to these energy issues in the early 2000s. READ MORE

  4. 23. Exploration and Evaluation of RNN Models on Low-Resource Embedded Devices for Human Activity Recognition

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik och inbyggda styrsystem

    Author : Helgi Hrafn Björnsson; Jón Kaldal; [2023]
    Keywords : Recurrent Neural Networks; Long Short-Term Memory Networks; Embedded Systems; Human Activity Recognition; Edge AI; TensorFlow Lite Micro; Recurrent Neural Networks; Long Short-Term Memory Networks; Innbyggda systyem; Mänsklig aktivitetsigenkänning; Edge AI; TensorFlow Lite Micro;

    Abstract : Human activity data is typically represented as time series data, and RNNs, often with LSTM cells, are commonly used for recognition in this field. However, RNNs and LSTM-RNNs are often too resource-intensive for real-time applications on resource constrained devices, making them unsuitable. READ MORE

  5. 24. Comparison of Recommendation Systems for Auto-scaling in the Cloud Environment

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Sai Nikhil Boyapati; [2023]
    Keywords : Auto-Scaling; Auto-Scaling Recommendations; Cloud Environment; K-Nearest Neighbors; Machine Learning; Recommendation Systems; Random Forests; Support Vector Machines;

    Abstract : Background: Cloud computing’s rapid growth has highlighted the need for efficientresource allocation. While cloud platforms offer scalability and cost-effectiveness for a variety of applications, managing resources to match dynamic workloads remains a challenge. READ MORE

  6. 25. Concrete Limits: A sociometabolic analysis of the feasibility of the Circular Economy approach for the concrete sector

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Nicolette Simone Wedgwood Young; [2023]
    Keywords : Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research.
