1. 1. The impact of wind power variability on the least-cost dispatch of units in the electricity generation system

   Författare :Lisa Göransson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind power; intermittency; wind-thermal system; variability; cycling costs; electricity generation system; dispatch modeling; variation management;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the dynamics of electricity generation systems that involve high levels of wind power. Methods to account for wind power variability in electricity-dispatch models are explored, and the impact of wind power variability on the optimal output of the generation units, so as to meet the system load with the lowest possible cost (economic dispatch), is analyzed for several systems, for both regional and European cases.

3. 2. Remediation of materials with mixed contaminants : treatability, technology and final disposal

   Författare :Kristin Elgh-Dalgren; Patrick van Hees; Bert Allard; Dan Berggren Kleja; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioremediation; Microtox®; mixed contaminants; re-cycling; soil remediation; soil washing.; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : Contaminated soils are a large issue worldwide and much effort has been made to find efficient remediation methods. At many contaminated sites, mixtures of dif­ferent contaminants with different properties are present, which may lead to addi­tional problems, and thus additional costs, during the remediation process.

4. 3. Creep Behavior of High Temperature Cast Materials for Exhaust Applications

   Författare :Christian Öberg; Stefan Jonsson; Baohua Zhu; John Hald; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Creep; creep behaviour; creep damage; ductile cast iron; high-alloyed austenitic cast steel; thermal cycling; tensile testing; stress relaxation; oxidation; precipitation.; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on creep of four cast materials intended for exhaust manifolds in heavy-duty truck engines. Two of the materials are ferritic ductile cast irons, SiMo51 and SiMo1000, one is an austenitic ductile cast iron, D5S, and another one is an austenitic cast steel, HK30. LÄS MER

5. 4. Infrared spectroscopy as a tool to reconstruct past lake-ecosystem changes : Method development and application in lake-sediment studies

   Författare :Carsten Meyer-Jacob; Richard Bindler; Hendrik Vogel; Jan Karlsson; John F. Boyle; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; visible-near infrared spectroscopy; PLS regression; biogenic silica; climate change; carbon cycling; lake-water quality; geochemistry; paleolimnology; Holocene; Lake El’gygytgyn; Torneträsk;

   Sammanfattning : Natural archives such as lake sediments allow us to assess contemporary ecosystem responses to climate and environmental changes in a long-term context beyond the few decades to at most few centuries covered by monitoring or historical data. To achieve a comprehensive view of the changes preserved in sediment records, multi-proxy studies – ideally in high resolution – are necessary. LÄS MER

7. 5. Thermal Issues in Testing of Advanced Systems on Chip

   Författare :Nima Aghaee Ghaleshahi; Zebo Peng; Petru Eles; Jaan Raik; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SoC test; test scheduling; Adaptive test; Temperature awareness; Process variation; Thermal simulation; 3D stacked IC 3DSIC test; Burn-in; Temperature gradients; Temperature Cycling Test; Test Ordering;

   Sammanfattning : Many cutting-edge computer and electronic products are powered by advanced Systems-on-Chip (SoC). Advanced SoCs encompass superb performance together with large number of functions. This is achieved by efficient integration of huge number of transistors. LÄS MER
