1. Interaction between defossilisation of basic industries and relocation : Scenario-based explorative and normative transition pathways to electrification for European basic industries and specific clusters
Abstract : The steel and chemical production industries are the largest industrial emitters of greenhouse gases in the European Union, together accounting for half of the EU’s industrial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A promising strategy for achieving deep GHG emissions reductions is the electrification of these two industries, which would depend on the rapid expansion of renewable electricity supply. READ MORE

5. Heterotic Compactifications in the Era of Data Science
Abstract : The goal of this thesis is to review and investigate recent applications of machine learning to problems in string theory. String theory, the leading candidate for a unification of gravity and the standard model of particle physics, requires the introduction of additional space-time dimensions. READ MORE
