2. 1. Simulation of Combustion and Fire-Induced Flows in Enclosures

   Author : Heimo Tuovinen; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cumbustion; Chemical kinetics; Flamelet model; CFD models; Fire-induced flows;

   Abstract : Numerical modeling of combustion in flames and gas flows and gas flows generated by fires in compartments has been carried out. The laminar flamelet model has been used to model combustion in different degrees of vitiation in order to model fire gas recirculation which occurs in compartment fires. READ MORE

4. 2. Optimization Based Decision Support Tools for Fire and Rescue Resource Planning

   Author : Anna Ulander; Jan Lundgren; Tobias Andersson Granberg; Henrik Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : When accidents occur, it is essential that fire and rescue service respond quickly and efficiently to the accident site to reduce suffering and save lives and property. Planning and coordinating of fire and rescue resources is therefore important in order to maintain a safe society. READ MORE

5. 3. The role of vegetation dynamics in the control of atmospheric CO2 content

   Author : Stephen Sitch; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Atmospheric CO2 content; climate change; plant functional types; terrestrial biosphere model; DGVM; vegetation dynamics; land use; land cover change; Plant ecology; Växtekologi;

   Abstract : This thesis contains a description of the Lund-Potsdam-Jena Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (LPJ-DGVM) and its application to infer the role of vegetation dynamics on atmospheric CO2 content at different time-scales. The model combines vegetation dynamics and biogeochemistry in a modular framework. READ MORE

6. 4. On Possibilities of Using Smart Meters for Compulsory Load Shedding Supported by Load Forecasting

   Author : Yasir Arafat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Power quality; Remote switching; Electrical distribution system; Smart meter; Compulsory load shedding; Load forecasting;

   Abstract : The smart meter rollout is progressing in several parts of the world with early adoption in some parts, e.g., Europe. Remote ON/OFF control switch of the smart meter allows distribution system operators to switch the smart meter of any customer remotely. READ MORE

7. 5. Long-Term Simulation of Coastal Evolution

   Author : Hoan Le Xuan; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tidal inlet; inlet shoal; sediment transport; spit growth; shoreline change; spit model; inlet model; mathematical model; numerical model; shoreline model;

   Abstract : There is a strong relationship between regional sediment transport and the local processes at tidal inlets and around coastal structures. Many coastal projects require quantitative understanding of these processes and the interactions between them. READ MORE
