  4. 2. Broadening Horizons : The FMECA-NETEP model, offshore wind farms and the permit application process

    Author : John Ohlson; Bo Carlsson; Håkan Thorstensson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cumulative impact; risk; offshore wind farm OWF ; FMECA; kumulativa effekter; risk; havsbaserad vindkraft; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Abstract : Abstract  The permit application process for offshore wind farms (OWF) in Sweden conceivably requires a comprehensive and transparent complement within risk management. The NETEP framework (covering risks concerning navigation, economics, technology, environment and politics), based on a futures planning mechanism (STEEP) has consequently been brought forward as a structure for the application of FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) methodology to the permit application process of the Swedish offshore wind farm sector.

  5. 3. Development and characterisation of bast and basalt fibre hybrid polymer composites for automotive applications

    Author : Anjum Saleem; Roberts Joffe; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flax; Hemp; Kenaf; Basalt fibres; Polypropylene; Acrylic based polyester resins; Flexural; Tensile; Impact strength; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : Natural fibres such as kenaf, hemp, and flax, also known as bast fibres, offer several benefits such as low density, low cost, carbon dioxide neutrality, sustainability and renewability. In Europe, their composites are used intensively by almost all car manufacturers, mostly in interior applications. READ MORE

    Abstract : At the end of the second decade of the XXI century, the transportation industry at large faces several challenges that will shape its evolution in the next decade and beyond. The first such challenge is the increasing public awareness and governmental action on climate change, which are increasing the pressure on the industrial sectors responsible for the greatest share of emissions, the transportation industry being one of them, to reduce their environmental footprint.
