  1. 21. Anticipating Glacier Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs): an impact-based forecasting framework for managing GLOF risks in Nepal.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Grace Muir; [2023]
    Keywords : Anticipatory Action; Impact-based Forecasting; Glacier Lake Outburst Flood; Nepal; Risk-informed Early Action; Prediction; Disaster Risk Management; Science General;

    Abstract : Glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are an increasingly documented threat across the Himalayan region, wherein Nepal is situated. GLOFs involve a rapid discharge of water from a lake situated at the side, front, within, beneath, or on the surface of a glacier. READ MORE

  3. 22. Mapping and analysis of an internal heating network at Holmen Paper Braviken

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

  4. 23. Dynamic Warning Signals and Time Lag Analysis for Seepage Prediction in Hydropower Dams : A Case Study of a Swedish Hydropower Plant

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Datalogi

    Author : Lovisa Olsson; Julia Hellström; [2023]
    Keywords : hydropower; dam safety; dam monitoring; seepage; prediction models; data-driven methods; artificial intelligence; AI;  linear regression; Support Vector Regression; SVR; Long Short-Term Memory; LSTM;

    Abstract : Hydropower is an important energy source since it is fossil-free, renewable, and controllable. Characteristics that become especially important as the reliance on intermittent energy sources increases. However, the dams for the hydropower plants are also associated with large risks as a dam failure could have fatal consequences. READ MORE

  5. 24. Gravity water waves over constant vorticity flows: from laminar flows to touching waves

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum

    Author : Francisco Gonçalves Jorge Dias de Carvalho; [2023]
    Keywords : Partial differential equations; Water waves; Euler equations; Free boundary problem; Bifurcation theory; Nonlinear functional analysis; Hilbert transform; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In a recent paper, Hur and Wheeler proved the existence of periodic steady water waves over an infinitely deep, two-dimensional and constant vorticity flow and subject to gravity whose profile overhangs, among which, waves whose surface touches at a point, enclosing a bubble of air. We take this further, proving the existence of a continuous curve of water waves from a laminar flow up to a touching wave for fixed non-zero gravity. READ MORE

  6. 25. Analyzing Key Flows and Processes of Waste Management for Environmental Improvement in Chennai, India : A Minor Field Study with a Life Cycle and Socio-Technical Systems Perspective

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik
