  2. 1. Availability Analysis of Three Different Types of Combined Cycle Power Plants

    Author : Javed S. Alvi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CCC power plants; NOx reduction; IGCC power plants; Makrov process; repair policies; effectiveness; PFBC power plants; active redundancy; backup fuel reducition;

    Abstract : The goal of power plants with higher efficiency and lower environmental risk than conventional power plants has produced three types of combined cycle power plants. These are: 1) the conventional combined cycle (CCC) power plant, 2) the pressurised fluidised bed combustion (PFBC) power plants, and 3) the integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants.

  4. 2. Exploiting Coherence in Voxelized Geometry

    Author : Viktor Kämpe; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; time-varying; directed acyclic graph; geometry; voxel; octree;

    Abstract : In computer graphics, the geometry of virtual worlds can be represented in numerousways, from collections of simple triangles or voxels to higher-order primitives likecurved surfaces. There is a trade-off, both in terms of memory consumption and processingtime, between the cost of an individual primitive and the number of primitivesrequired to faithfully represent the world.
