  1. 21. Effects of Prolonged Electricity Supply Disruptions on Critical Entities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI); Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : André Hansson; [2023]
    Keywords : vital societal function; VSF; critical entity; CE; vital societal entity; VSE; critical infrastructure; CI; critical flow; prolonged outage; electricity supply disruption; preparedness; total defence; civil defence; civil preparedness; crisis preparedness; grey zone; critical entities resilience; CER; hybrid warfare; energy security; societal resilience; cascading effect; dependencies; interdependencies; long-term disruption; power outage; power disruption; consequences; outage; samhällsviktig verksamhet; kritisk infrastruktur; totalförsvar; beredskap; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study investigates Swedish critical entities (CEs) ability to maintain function during up to three months of electricity supply disruptions. It also examines possible improvement measures, and how contextual cases (grey zone, heightened state of alert, war) influence CEs’ ability to maintain function during electricity supply disruptions.

  3. 22. Simulation Model - Grid Connection of a Marine Current Power Turbine

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Muhammad Farooq Mazhar; [2023]
    Keywords : Power electronics; Filters; Marine-current turbine; Grid connection; Damping;

    Abstract : Renewable energy is a reliable source of energy and can provide promising solution to the on-going energy crisis if harnessed properly. Some of the common energy sources in which a lot of research is invested include wind,solar, water and biofuels. READ MORE

  4. 23. Antarctic Subglacial Lakes as Environmental Analogues for Possible Hidden Biospheres on the Moons Europa and Enceladus

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jonas Fahlman; [2023]
    Keywords : astrobiology; icy moons; subglacial lakes; ice dynamics; thermal regimes; extremophiles; anthropogenic contamination; astrobiologi; ismånar; subglaciala sjöar; is-dynamik; termiska regimer; extremofiler; antropologisk kontaminering;

    Abstract : The evolving science of astrobiology for the search for life beyond Earth has put focus on the possibility of subsurface bodies of liquid water beneath the surface of icy moons within our Solar System. Specifically, the Jovian moon of Europa and the Saturnian moon of Enceladus show telling characteristics of endogenous heating through their complex tidal resonances with their parent planets – suggesting the presence of oceans of liquid water and therefore a potential for astrobiology.

  5. 24. A quantitative analysis of plume gas distributions from different detection studies on Europa

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Anujan Ranganathan; [2023]
    Keywords : Europa; Water; Plume distribution; Surface Density; Column Density; Total number of molecules; Europa; Vatten; Plym Distribution; Ytdensitet; Kolumndensitet; Total mängd molekyler;

    Abstract : The search for water has been vital in our solar system as water indicates a potential for life. The search has been extended to satellites orbiting the outer planets. It has already been proven that water exists on Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, where the spacecraft Cassini did a flyby through a water plume. READ MORE

  6. 25. Pathways towards universal access to electricity in West Africa : Case study of Mali and Senegal

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

    Author : Vittorio Bozzo; [2023]
    Keywords : Universal electricity access; Senegal; Mali; OnSSET; GIS; PV mini-grid; Universell tillgång till el; Senegal; Mali; OnSSET; GIS; PV mininät;

    Abstract : Despite the vast solar potential in both Mali and Senegal, the electricity access in both countries remains one of the lowest in the world. The main problem is represented by the disparity between rural and urban settlements. In Senegal, the electricity access for rural areas was lower than 50%, while in Mali was around 35%. READ MORE
