1. Stewardship in an urban world : Civic engagement and human–nature relations in the Anthropocene
Sammanfattning : Never before have humans wielded a greater ability to alter and disrupt planetary processes. Our impact is becoming so noticeable that a new geological epoch has been proposed – the Anthropocene – in which Earth systems might no longer maintain the stable and predictable conditions of the past 12 millennia. LÄS MER
2. Urban environmental stewardship : Roles and reasons for civic engagements in governance of social-ecological systems
Sammanfattning : Stewardship as a concept is increasingly brought forward as a goal to reach sustainability goals of ensuring human wellbeing within the limits of Earth’s life support systems. Scholarship on the required capacities for planetary stewardship is growing rapidly, as are the insights. LÄS MER
3. Graybox Modelling of Ships Using Indirect Input Measurements
Sammanfattning : A ship's roll dynamics is very sensitive to changes in the loading conditions and a worst-case scenario is that the ship will capsize. Actually, the mass and center of mass are two of the most influential parameters in most mechanical systems. LÄS MER
4. Numerical methods for Sylvester-type matrix equations and nonlinear eigenvalue problems
Sammanfattning : Linear matrix equations and nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NEP) appear in a wide variety of applications in science and engineering. Important special cases of the former are the Lyapunov equation, the Sylvester equation, and their respective generalizations. These appear, e.g. LÄS MER
