  1. 1. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis Methods : with Applications to a Road Traffic Emission Model

    Author : Olle Eriksson; Stig Danielsson; Rolf Sundberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Emission; Grid; Model; Pollutant; Response surface; Road traffic; Sensitivity analysis; Simulation; Uncertainty analysis; Avgaser; Vägtrafik; Miljöaspekter; Statistics; Statistik;

    Abstract : There is always a need to study the properties of complex input–output systems, properties that may be very difficult to determine. Two such properties are the output’s sensitivity to changes in the inputs and the output’s uncertainty if the inputs are uncertain. READ MORE

  2. 2. Global stability analysis of complex fluids

    Author : Iman Lashgari; Luca Brandt; Francois Gallaire; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; non-Newtonian flow; Carreau model; Oldroyd-B model; FENE-P model; modal analysis; nonmodal analysis; sensitivity analysis;

    Abstract : The main focus of this work is on the non-Newtonian effects on the inertial instabilities in shear flows. Both inelastic (Carreau) and elastic models (Oldroyd-B and FENE-P) have been employed to examine the main features of the non-Newtonian fluids; shear-thinning, shear-thickening and elasticity.

  3. 3. Environmental System Analysis of Waste Management : Experiences from Applications of the ORWARE Model

    Author : Anna Björklund; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; municipal solid waste MSW ; waste management; waste management planning; model; environmental systems analysis; life cycle assessment LCA ; substance flow analysis SFA ; substance flows; environmental impact; energy; uncertainty; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Waste management has gone through a history of shiftingproblems, demands, and strategies over the years. In contrastto the long prevailing view that the problem could be solved byhiding or moving it, waste is now viewed as a problem rangingfrom local to global concern, and as being an integral part ofseveral sectors in society.

  4. 4. Taxation of intermediate goods : a CGE analysis

    Author : Lars Bohlin; Lars Hultkrantz; Mats Nilsson; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Optimal taxation; energy taxation; environmental taxes; emission trading; climate policy; carbon leakage; CGE-analysis; input-output tables; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with tax rates for the use of commodities in general, and energy in particular. Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models are used to analyze the normative question of whether the tax rate for intermediate use by firms should be the same as the tax rate for final consumption by households.

  5. 5. Decision-making in obstetric emergencies. Individual differences and professional boundaries

    Author : Gabriel Raoust; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; patient safety; personality; collaboration; boundary work; Midwife; doctor; professional identities; sense making; narrative analysis; art; correlation analysis; regression analysis; mediation analysis; moderation analysis; factor analysis; birth; cooperation;

    Abstract : In affluent nations, variations in obstetric care, particularly during emergencies, perplexingly manifest in differing intervention and outcome rates. Although these variations mirror systemic disparities, they are also suggested to reflect the interplay of social and professional interactions between obstetricians/gynecologists and midwives, stemming from adherence to distinct professional paradigms and the influence of personal factors on decision-making and collaboration.
