  1. 26. Hydrogeologic Studies on the Regional Scale: Risk Assessment and Decision Analysis

    Författare :David Wladis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; well data; decision analysis; lineaments; remote sensing; conceptual model; risk; groundwater; Europe; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Regional hydrogeologic studies are important components of environmental policy-making and as a basis of large construction projects. The structure of hydrogeologic studies on the regional scale is often complex, with a large number of steps and considerations. LÄS MER

  3. 27. Analysis of Mining Investments in Zimbabwe

    Författare :Ronald Chifamba; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Investment; minerals; natural resource; uncertainty; irreversibility; cost function; consumption; return; investment; risk premia; user-cost; capital; Zimbabwe;

    Sammanfattning : The papers in this thesis investigate issues related to investment with particular reference to the mining sector in Zimbabwe. Issues analysed are the levels of risk premia that attract investment in minerals in developing countries, whether firms in the sector manage to reduce operation to optimal levels consistent with theoretical predictions, and the extent to which irreversibility has reduced investment expenditures.

  4. 28. Utilization of local bioresources for transport fuels - System analysis for decision support

    Författare :Muhammad Arfan; Ola Eriksson; Jonas Ammenberg; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System analysis; local bioresources; transportation fuels; LCA; LCC; geography of transitions; Systemanalys; Lokala resurser; drivmedel; LCA; LCC; geografi och om-ställning;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a comprehensive system analysis of the utilization of biowaste and forest industry residues to produce transportation fuels. It explores various aspects such as the constraints to the production system’s value chain development, the utilization of the geographical proximity of biofuel technology innovation system components, environmental impacts, and economic costs.

  5. 29. Improving OpenMP Productivity with Data Locality Optimizations and High-resolution Performance Analysis

    Författare :Ananya Muddukrishna; Mats Brorsson; Nawal Copty; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; OpenMP; Performance Analysis; Scheduling; Locality Optimizations;

    Sammanfattning : The combination of high-performance parallel programming and multi-core processors is the dominant approach to meet the ever increasing demand for computing performance today. The thesis is centered around OpenMP, a popular parallel programming API standard that enables programmers to quickly get started with writing parallel programs. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Laser Sheet Imaging and Image Analysis for Combustion Research

    Författare :Rafeef Abu-Gharbieh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-linear diffusion filtering; optically dense sprays; curve evolution propagation; image sequence analysis; laser induced fluorescence; geodesic paths; level sets; LIF; optical density; spray characterization; flame propagation; laser; particle image velocimetry; spectroscopy; combustion engines; spray diagnostics; Mie scattering; flame fronts; laser attenuation; tracking; combustion diagnostics; curve matching; combustion; laser sheet imaging; PIV; time resolved imaging; segmentation;

    Sammanfattning : This Thesis presents techniques that aim at exploiting the potential of image analysis and processing in order to solve problems of data reduction, interpolation, quantification, and interpretation within the field of experimental laser imaging of combustion processes. Combustion is the most important source of energy for power generation, heating, and transportation in the world today and its strong dominance is projected to continue in the foreseeable future.
