1. 1. Study case: The water-cooling effect on floating photovoltaic plants performance

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Alice Dragon; [2024]
   Keywords : Solar photovoltaic; Floating photovoltaic; Performance analysis; Thermal loss; Panel Efficiency; Cooling effect; Solceller; Flytande solceller; Prestandaanalys; Termisk förlust; Panelens effektivitet; Kylande effekt;

   Abstract : Floating solar technology is relatively new, and it comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. This master thesis focuses on understanding how Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) projects perform compared to Ground-Based Photovoltaic (GPV) projects, in specific weather conditions. READ MORE

3. 2. The Winograd Convolution Method

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Alexander Wallén Kiessling; Viktor Svalstedt; [2023]
   Keywords : Convolution; Winograd; FFT;

   Abstract : The convolution operation is a powerful tool which is widely used in many disciplines.Lately is has seen much use in the area of computer vision, particularly with convolutionalneural networks. For these use cases, convolutions need to be run repeatedly many timeswhich necessitates specialized hardware. READ MORE

4. 3. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.

5. 4. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

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

   Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

6. 5. Adding Floating-point Arithmetic Support to TriCera

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

   Author : Danyal Mirza; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Floating-point arithmetic is a widely utilized technique for approximating real numbers. When applied in safety-critical systems, it is essential to ensure that these numbers behave as they should and do not give unsuspected errors. To ensure this, the utilization of floating-point verification is needed. READ MORE
