  1. 1. State Capacity and Development in Francophone West Africa

    Författare :Jens Andersson; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; State capacity; Colonialism; Africa; Economic development; France;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis proposes a unique quantitative investigation of the long-term development of modern states in Sub-Saharan Africa. This is done by measuring and analysing the dynamic history of tax revenue, as a key measure of the capacity of the state, and development in four countries in francophone West Africa – Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Niger and Senegal – over the long 20th century.

  3. 2. Expansion Governance of the Integrated North Seas Offshore Grid

    Författare :João Gorenstein Dedecca; Paulien M. Herder; Rudi A. Hakvoort; Amineh Ghorbani; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Union; expansion planning; governance; HVDC; myopic optimization; North Seas; offshore grid; offshore wind; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : The expansion of offshore power transmission and generation in the North Seas of Europe is accelerating rapidly. This is due to several drivers, including the decarbonization and reform of the European power system, and innovations in offshore wind and high-voltage direct current transmission. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Defining Regulators of Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells

    Författare :Christine Karlsson; Avdelningen för molekylärmedicin och genterapi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; High-throughput screening; Expansion; Hematopoietic stem cell; Cord blood; RNA interference; extrinsic Signaling molecules;

    Sammanfattning : Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is a conceptual and elegant example of stem cell therapy, rendered possible by the dual capacity of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to self-renew and differentiate. These defining features ultimately ensure the production of all blood cell lineages and simultaneous maintenance of the stem cell pool, thereby maintaining lifelong homeostasis. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Optimization of low-cost integration of wind and solar power in multi-node electricity systems: Mathematical modelling and dual solution approaches

    Författare :Caroline Granfeldt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; variable renewable electricity; Lagrangian relaxation; ADMM; electricity system modelling; variable splitting; capacity expansion; cost optimization; variation management; consensus algorithm; subgradient algorithm;

    Sammanfattning : The global production of electricity contributes significantly to the release of CO2 emissions. Therefore, a transformation of the electricity system is of vital importance in order to restrict global warming. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Efficient reduction techniques for a large-scale Transmission Expansion Planning problem

    Författare :Quentin Ploussard; Luis Olmos; Andres Ramos; Efraim Centeno; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy; electricity; transmission expansion planning; linear programming; integer linear programming; relaxation methods; clustering; dimension reduction; network theory graphs ; partitioning algorithms; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) studies is to decide which, where, and when new grid elements should be built in order to minimize the total system cost. The lumpiness of the investment decisions, together with the large size of the problem, make the problem very hard to solve. LÄS MER
