  1. 11. Optimization modeling of frequency reserves and inertia in the transition to a climate-neutral electricity system

    Författare :Jonathan Ullmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; generation expansion planning; frequency reserves; inertia; Energy system modeling; synthetic inertia; frequency control;

    Sammanfattning : The ongoing transition towards electricity production systems that are dominated by wind and solar power challenge both the traditional strategy for meeting a varying electricity demand and the traditional way of controlling the AC frequency of the electricity grid. This work investigates how frequency reserves (FR) and inertia, as well as inter-hourly variation management interact in the transition to a climate-neutral electricity system. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Geographic Accessibility Analysis - Methods and Application

    Författare :Anders Dahlgren; Fastighetsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; GIS; geographic accessibility; proximity analysis; spatial index; generalization of graphs; network search;

    Sammanfattning : Geographic accessibility to services is important. Having a grocery store and a school nearby are important living conditions and having a rescue station close by could be a life-saver. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Performance Measures of Road Infrastructure - A Life Cycle Thinking Approach

    Författare :Babak Ebrahimi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Road infrastructure; Life Cycle Assessment LCA ; Lifetime Estimation; Geographic Information System GIS ; Life Cycle Thinking LCT ; Material Flow Analysis MFA ;

    Sammanfattning : Roads have been an important asset of human society and the approach we adopt towards planning, designing, constructing, operating, and maintaining of the road infrastructure has significant consequences in the long-term for not only the humans, but all species on planet Earth. Hence, the lifecycle performance of the road infrastructure that sustain our socioeconomic development with a low environmental impact, while fulfilling their technical and functional requirements is of critical importance and needs to be improved.

  4. 14. Tumour stromal and demographical factors affecting the metastatic aggressiveness of small differentiated papillary thyroid cancers in Sweden

    Författare :Haytham Bayadsi; Joakim Hennings; Malin Sund; Robert Bränström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Papillary thyroid cancer; Tumour stroma; Geographic information system; Register; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has been increasing over the recent decades, especially that of small papillary thyroid cancers (sPTCs) (≤ 20mm in size). sPTCs are generally classified as low risk cancers with a very favourable diagnosis, yet some of these cancers still cause locoregional and distant metastasis, recurrence and even death.

  5. 15. An Operations Research Approach for Daily Emergency Management

    Författare :Niki Matinrad; Tobias Andersson Granberg; Jan T. Lundgren; Anna Fredriksson; Melanie Reuter-Oppermann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Emergency services play a vital role in society by providing help to affected people and minimizing damage to public and private assets as well as the environment during emergencies. However, these organizations deal with problems of increasing demand uncertainty and resource shortage over time. LÄS MER
