2. 11. Quantitative vulnerability analysis of electric power networks

   Author : Åke J. Holmgren; Torbjörn Thedéen; Lars-Göran Mattsson; Terje Aven; KTH; []
   Keywords : Safety Analysis; vulnerability; homeland security; risk analysis; network; electric power system; blackout; power law; statistical analysis; graph theory; branching process; game theory; Säkerhetsanalys; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Disturbances in the supply of electric power can have serious implications for everyday life as well as for national (homeland) security. A power outage can be initiated by natural disasters, adverse weather, technical failures, human errors, sabotage, terrorism, and acts of war. READ MORE

4. 12. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis of Boiling Water Reactor Stability Simulations

   Author : Ivan Gajev; Weimin Ma; Tomasz Kozlowski; Kostadin Ivanov; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BWR Stability; Sensitivity; Uncertainty; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

   Abstract : The best estimate codes are used for licensing of Nuclear Power Plants (NPP), but with conservative assumptions. It is claimed that the uncertainties are covered by the conservatism of the calculation. READ MORE

5. 13. Thin Film Plate Acoustic Resonators for Frequency Control and Sensing Applications

   Author : Lilia Arapan; Ventsislav Yantchev; Ilja Katardjiev; Enrique Iborra; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electro-Acoustics; FPAR; Lamb waves; aluminium nitride; interdigital transducer; phase noise; temperature compensation; power handling; sensitivity; zero group velocity; intermode coupling; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot mikrosystemteknik; Engineering Science with specialization in Microsystems Technology;

   Abstract : The recent development of the commercially viable thin film electro-acoustic technology has triggered a growing interest in the research of plate guided wave or Lamb wave components owing to their unique characteristics. In the present thesis i) an experimental study of the thin film plate resonators (FPAR) performance operating on the lowest symmetrical Lamb wave (S0) propagating in highly textured AlN membranes versus a variety of design parameters has been performed.

6. 14. Nuclear Power as a Climate Change Mitigation Option: a Modelling Approach

   Author : Mariliis Lehtveer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CCS; sensitivity analysis; nuclear weapons proliferation; energy system model; nuclear power; climate change;

   Abstract : Although nuclear power can provide electricity with very low life cycle carbon emissions and thus reduce the cost of climate change mitigation, it also brings along many specific challenges: accident risk, need for radioactive waste management and nuclear weapons proliferation risk. Due to this controversial nature nuclear power, among other energy forms, has been relatively little studied in a climate mitigation context. READ MORE

7. 15. Electromagnetic dispersion modeling and analysis for HVDC power cables

   Author : Stefan Gustafsson; Sven Nordebo; Martin Norgren; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HVDC power cables; electromagnetic model; TDR measurement; sensitivity analysis; dispersion relation; propagation constant; low-frequency asymptotics;

   Abstract : Derivation of an electromagnetic model, regarding the wave propagation in a very long (10 km or more) High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) power cable, is the central part of this thesis. With an existing “perfect” electromagnetic model there are potentially a wide range of applications. READ MORE
