  1. 1. Insights from modeling renewable electricity systems and developing hydropower models

    Author : Hanna Ek Fälth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; renewables; electricity systems; hydropower; nuclear; modeling; Europe; MENA; transmission; available land;

    Abstract : One strategy for reaching a carbon-neutral electricity system is a large-scale deployment of wind and solar power. However, electricity systems with high shares of wind and solar power rely on other technologies, e.g. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling aspects of reliability-based design of lined rock caverns

    Author : Davi Rodrigues Damasceno; Fredrik Johansson; Johan Spross; Rafael Jimenez; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lined rock cavern; reliability-based design; analytical modeling; finite element modeling; underground gas storage; Inklädda bergrum; tillförlitlighetsbaserad design; analytisk modellering; finita elementmodellering; underjordisk gaslagring; Soil and Rock Mechanics; Jord- och bergmekanik;

    Abstract : The storage of large quantities of hydrogen gas in underground lined rock caverns (LRCs) could contribute to an efficient supply of fossil-free energy. The consequences of failure of such storage can be catastrophic, so representative predictive models and a small probability of failure are needed for the LRC design. READ MORE

    Author : Lindsi Seegmiller; Takeshi Shirabe; Kai-Florian Richter; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; raster data modeling; raster-based geographic information systems; route planning; optimal routing; corridor; wide path; corridor width; distortion; three-dimensional grid; rasterdatamodellering; rasterbaserade geografiska informationssystem; ruttplanering; optimal dirigering; korridor; bred väg; korridorbredd; distorsion; tredimensionellt rutnät; Geoinformatics; Geoinformatik;

    Abstract : Given a grid of cells, each having a value indicating its cost per unit area, a variant of the least-cost path problem is to find a corridor of a specified width connecting two termini such that its cost-weighted area is minimized. A computationally efficient method exists for finding such corridors, but as is the case with conventional raster-based least-cost paths, their incremental orientations are limited to a fixed number of (typically eight orthogonal and diagonal) directions, and therefore, regardless of the grid resolution, they tend to deviate from those conceivable on the Euclidean plane.

  4. 4. Computationally efficient methods in spatial statistics : Applications in environmental modeling

    Author : David Bolin; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this thesis, computationally efficient statistical models for large spatial environmental data sets are constructed. In the first part of the thesis, a method for estimating spatially dependent temporal trends is developed. A space-varying regression model, where the regression coefficients for the spatial locations are dependent, is used. READ MORE

  5. 5. Interface modeling - friction and wear

    Author : Anders Söderberg; Sören Andersson; Norbert Huber; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Interfaces; Models; Simulation; Friction; Wear; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The general trend toward increased use of computer models and simulations during product development calls for accurate and reliable product models. The function of many products relies on contact interfaces between interacting components. Simulating the behavior of such products requires accurate models of both components and interfaces.
