  1. 1. Variation Management Strategies for Future Construction Sites: A study to address role of an equipment rental business in the energy transition

    University essay from

    Author : Ellen Blanksvärd; Frida Svensson; [2023-09-21T12:07:03Z 2023-09-21T12:07:03Z 2023 2023]
    Keywords : battery storage; variation management; flexibility services; peak shaving; load shifting; demand side management; rental business; electrification; construction equipment; construction sites;

    Abstract : Construction sites are facing challenges with high power peaks due to electrificationof heavy equipment where potential consequences are increased power tariffs locallyand risk of limited power supply. Another development is an increased intermittentpower supply due to more wind- and solar power in the electricity system, whichcauses price fluctuations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Healthcare Production Control Maturity Model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk logistik

    Author : Fredrik Elsnitz; Filippa Ramberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Healthcare; maturity model; production control; resource planning; capacity planning; Swedish healthcare.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Sweden has been struggling with bad access to healthcare. The National Healthcare Guarantee is not fulfilled, and Sweden has low productivity numbers. One suggested solution to deal with this issue is increased healthcare production control. READ MORE

  3. 3. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi

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

    Author : Raúl Calvo García; Jose María Marín Arcos; [2023]
    Keywords : Flexible sector coupling FSC ; district heating DH ; thermal energy storage TES ; heat pump HP ; capacity optimization; dispatch optimization; open-access tools; Flexibel sektorkoppling; fjärrvärme; termisk energilagring; värmepump; kapacitetsoptimering; leveransoptimering; verktyg med öppen tillgång;

    Abstract : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the  amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

  4. 4. Evaluating modelled natural capital values for planning processes: A case study in Stockholm, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Vania Diaz Gardell; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; Natural Capital; Ecosystem Services; Biodiversity; Environmental Models; Urban Planning; Planning Process; Social Sciences; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : A commonly proposed principle for reducing impact on natural capital within the planning process is the mitigation hierarchy. The mitigation hierarchy means that impacts should primarily be avoided, otherwise minimized, and when this is not possible - restored or compensated according to an equivalency- and proximity principle.

  5. 5. Trainable Region of Interest Prediction: Hard Attention Framework for Hardware-Efficient Event-Based Computer Vision Neural Networks on Neuromorphic Processors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Cina Arjmand; [2023]
    Keywords : Artifical Intelligence; Machine Learning; Neuromorphic Engineering; Computer Vision; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Neuromorphic processors are a promising new type of hardware for optimizing neural network computation using biologically-inspired principles. They can effectively leverage information sparsity such as in images from event-based cameras, and are well-adapted to processing event-based data in an energy-efficient fashion. READ MORE
