  1. 21. Power Grid Resilience to High Impact Low Probability Events

    Författare :Samuel Forsberg; Mikael Bergkvist; Karin Thomas; Lars Nordström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extreme weather; HILP events; offshore wind; power grid; resilience; vulnerability; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Systems Analysis; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot systemanalys;

    Sammanfattning : The electrification of societies and the decarbonisation of electricity production are changing energy systems worldwide. A fast transition towards the replacement of fossil fuels by intermittent renewable energy sources is expected in the next decades to combat climate change. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Towards a Sustainable Food System : Entrepreneurship, Resilience and Agriculture in the Baltic Sea Region

    Författare :Markus Larsson; Rebecka Milestad; Höjer Mattias; Thomas Hahn; Lars Drake; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sustainable agriculture; eutrophication; Baltic Sea; entrepreneurship; resilience; sustainable food system; Hållbart jordbruk; övergödning; Östersjön; entreprenörskap; resiliens; hållbart livsmedelssystem; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis compares conventional agriculture and Ecological Recycling Agriculture (ERA) in terms of their environmental and socio-economic effects. Environmental effects include greenhouse gas emissions and energy use, but this analysis focuses on nutrient losses. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Resilience in High Risk Work : Analysing Adaptive Performance

    Författare :Amy Rankin; Henrik Eriksson; Margareta Lützhöft; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Resilience Engineering; Safety Management; Adaptive Capacity; Improvisation;

    Sammanfattning : In today’s complexsocio-technical systems it is not possible to foresee and prepare for allfuture events. To cope with the intricacy and coupling between people,technical systems and the dynamic environment people are required tocontinuously adapt. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Profit-Orientation and Post-Growth Economies : Building Theory for Social-Ecological Resilience

    Författare :Jennifer Hinton; Sarah Cornell; Wijnand Boonstra; Somya Joshi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Systems thinking; Systems analysis; Post-growth economy; Degrowth; Sustainable economy; Sustainable business; Theory of the firm; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis takes a post-growth perspective in order to answer the overarching research question:  How does business profit-orientation affect social-ecological sustainability? It is the result of putting different pieces of the puzzle together - across the microeconomic and macroeconomic scales - in order to build a stronger conceptual and theoretical basis for sustainable post-growth economies.In Part 1, I describe what a post-growth perspective entails, as an inherently social-ecological systems approach.

  5. 25. Design of Multi-layer Telecommunication Networks: Fairness, Resilience, and Load Balancing

    Författare :Eligijus Kubilinskas; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; network design; multi-layer networks; fairness; resilience; telecommunications; load balancing; optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Migration to Next Generation Internet architectures poses new challenges for network operators in planning core networks and calls for efficient network planning and optimization tools. Optimization models underlying such tools are developed in this thesis. LÄS MER
