  1. 11. Processes of long-term coastal evolution and their mathematical modelling : Application to the Mozambican coast

    Author : JAIME PALALANE; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coastal evolution; coastal processes; mathematical modelling; Mozambican coast; coastal erosion; Macaneta; spit model; long-term evolution;

    Abstract : Different processes in response to the action of natural driven forces and the human interference on coastal systems act together, contributing to shape the coast. Coastal evolution models have been developed as useful tools to better understand the contribution of different processes on observed coastal changes, and also to anticipate future evolution in response to different actions and interventions taking place along the coast.

    Abstract : As a result of advances in healthcare and rehabilitation, many people with spinal cord injury (SCI) have lived several decades with their injury. Knowledge of living with long-term SCI into older age is limited, despite an increased focus on aging with SCI in research and clinical practice. READ MORE

  4. 14. Engendering Spatial Planning : A Gender Perspective on Municipal Climate Change Response

    Author : Christian Dymén; Göran Cars; Richard Langlais; Susan Buckingham; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Spatial planning; climate change; gender perspective; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : While climate change mitigation has been on the agenda of spatial planning practitioners for over two decades, adaptation has only become influential in spatial planning practice in recent years. This trend is evident not only at the municipal levelbut also at the regional and national levels. READ MORE

  5. 15. Optimal Long-Term Generation-Transmission Planning in the Context of Multiple TSOs

    Author : Yaser Tohidi; Mohammad Reza Hesamzadeh; Andres Ramos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transmission-generation expansion planning; game theory; mathematical programming; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Power system transmission is undergoing rapid changes by the advent of renewable resources of energy, distributed generation, market integration, etc. Transmission planning is, nowadays, about building more inter-connections between adjacent regions or connecting off-shore wind farms to the grid or augmenting the network to support new path flows of energy and is still almost entirely the responsibility of regulated transmission system operator (TSO).
