1. 11. Electricity Distribution Network Planning Considering Distributed Generation

   Författare :Yalin Huang; Lennart Söder; Karin Alvehag; Peiyuan Chen; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Electricity distribution network; network planning; distributed generation; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : One of EU’s actions against climate change is to meet 20% of our energy needs from renewable resources. Given that the renewable resources are becoming more economical to extract electricity from, this will result in that more and more distributed generation (DG) will be connected to power distribution.

3. 12. Visualization and Simulation Technology in Healthcare - From a technology-centered to a human-centered perspective

   Författare :Johanna Persson; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; planning; education; training; technology-centered; human-centered; user involvement; participation; work environment; healthcare; simulation; Visualization;

   Sammanfattning : With the aid of modern computer technology the application of visualization and simulation technology has become increasingly important in today’s society. Through computer modelling it is possible to experience, understand and explore environments, systems or objects in two or three dimensions and to see, hear and sometimes tangibly feel them. LÄS MER

4. 13. Social-ecological resilience and planning: an interdisciplinary exploration

   Författare :Cathy Wilkinson; Johan Colding; Thomas Elmqvist; Libby Porter; Yvonne Rydin; Catherine Wilkinson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; social-ecological resilience; strategic spatial planning; urban governance; ecosystem services; Melbourne; Stockholm; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

   Sammanfattning : Despite considerable expansion in the scope and function of the state with respect to environmental protection, the world’s biological diversity and ecosystem services continue to deteriorate. Finding ways to better govern human-nature relations in cities is an important part of addressing this decline. LÄS MER

5. 14. Optimal Long-Term Generation-Transmission Planning in the Context of Multiple TSOs

   Författare :Yaser Tohidi; Mohammad Reza Hesamzadeh; Andres Ramos; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transmission-generation expansion planning; game theory; mathematical programming; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Power system transmission is undergoing rapid changes by the advent of renewable resources of energy, distributed generation, market integration, etc. Transmission planning is, nowadays, about building more inter-connections between adjacent regions or connecting off-shore wind farms to the grid or augmenting the network to support new path flows of energy and is still almost entirely the responsibility of regulated transmission system operator (TSO).

7. 15. People, Climate, and Inclusive Infrastructure : A thesis on design and planning in underserved neighbourhoods

   Författare :Joseph Mulligan; Mattias Höjer; David Nilsson; Edgar Pieterse; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Socio-ecological systems; climate change; infrastructure design and planning; participation; adaptation; co-design; resilience; urban transition; flood risk management; transdisciplinary research; Kibera; Nairobi; Kenya; sub-Saharan Africa.; Strategier för hållbar utveckling; Strategies for sustainable development;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with the processes of design and planning of infrastructure in rapidly urbanising cities that can lead to a more just and sustainable trajectory of urban development in the context of a changing climate. The thesis draws on case studies, panel surveys, interviews, and participant-observation of both top-down and bottom-up planning processes for infrastructure development and flood risk management in the context of urban informal areas, with a particular focus on the large informal neighbourhood of Kibera in central Nairobi, Kenya.
