2. 1. Statistical Downscaling of Precipitation from Large-scale Atmospheric Circulation : Comparison of Methods and Climate Regions

   Author : Fredrik Wetterhall; Sven Halldin; Chong-Yu Xu; Lars-Christer Lundin; Deliang Chen; Hans von Storch; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrology; Statistical; Downscaling; Precipitation; Large-scale circulation; PCA; TWS; Weather pattern; Regression; Weather generator; Hydrologi; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

   Abstract : A global climate change may have large impacts on water resources on regional and global scales. General circulation models (GCMs) are the most used tools to evaluate climate-change scenarios on a global scale. They are, however, insufficiently describing the effects at the local scale.

4. 2. Car crashes with two-wheelers in China: Proposal and assessment of C-NCAP automated emergency braking test scenarios

   Author : Bo Sui; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cluster analysis; China; AEB; PTW; motorcycles; benefit assessment; C-NCAP; future safety systems; two-wheelers; ADAS;

   Abstract : In China, around 15,000 users of two-wheelers (TWs) die on the road every year. Passenger cars are the dominating crash opponent of TWs in road traffic crashes. Understanding the characteristics of car crashes with TWs is essential to enhance cars’ safety performance and improve the safety of TW riders in China. READ MORE

5. 3. Arsenic in tubewell water of Bangladesh and approaches for sustainable mitigation

   Author : Md. Jakariya; Prosun Bhattacharya; Jan Hoinkis; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tubewell; Arsenic; field test kit; groundwater; sediment colour; local drillers; safe aquifer; people’s initiatives; Participatory GIS PGIS ; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

   Abstract : There is an urgent need for Bangladesh to identify the arsenic (As) contaminated tubewells (TWs) in order to assess the health risks and initiate appropriate mitigation measures. This involves testing water in millions of TWs and raising community awareness about the health problems related to chronic As exposure from drinking water, and providing alternative safe water option for the exposed population of the country.

   Abstract : Transparent wood (TW) shows interesting optical properties and offers a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based polymer glasses. The influence of the TW internal structure (e.g. READ MORE

7. 5. Distributed Signal Processing in Digital Substations : Integrating High Sampling Rate Measurements at the Process-Level

   Author : Fabian Hohn; Lars Nordström; Peter Crossley; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Communication networks; digital signal processing; digital substation; field-programmable gate array; filter design; IEC 61850; IEC 61869; power system protection; substation automation; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Future power systems will be dominated by power electronic (PE) converter connected generation. This trend is primarily driven by the increasing penetration of wind power as well as the increasing integration of photovoltaic (PV) based generation. READ MORE
