With larger penetrations of wind power, the uncertainty increases in power systems operations. The wind power forecast errors must be accounted for by adapting existing operating tools or designing new ones. A switch from the deterministic framework used today to a probabilistic one has been advocated. This two-part paper presents a framework for risk-based operations of power systems. This framew
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan 1900-talets början har jordens medeltemperatur ökat med ca 0.9 grader, vilket bland annat resulterat i mer extremt väder, varmare världshav och att världens isar smälter med översvämningar av kustregioner som följd. Det är numera accepterat att denna temperaturökning med stor sannolikhet beror på människans utsläpp av växthusgaser, ex koldioxid (CO2). KoncentratioThe thesis work was performed with the aim of increasing knowledge and understanding of the combustion of oxygenated fuels and intermediates. This was accomplished in two steps: experimental measurements of the laminar burning velocity to expand current databases and development of a reaction mechanism. In the first part of the project, the laminar burning velocity of oxygenated fuels and interme
Modulation of customer loads for increased power system damping is suggested as an alternative to control of HVDC links and FACTS devices. The loads are modeled as real power controlled by local bus frequency, which is equivalent to viscous damping in a mechanical system. The qualitative aspects of the interaction between two load modulation controllers are studied using linearized models of two t
We propose a simple optimal a posteriori probability (APP) symbol decoding algorithm for linear block codes, which requires one forward recursion in a trellis.
BackgroundChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cystic fibrosis (CF) are characterized by persistent airway inflammation and airflow limitation. Measuring airway inflammation may be of value both in research and clinical practice. Calprotectin, a protein associated with neutrophil activation, serves as a potential biomarker for airway inflammation. This study evaluates the performance o
Inhalation administration of therapeutics is a crucial method for treatment of respiratory diseases, offering direct access to the target organ. However, the progression of candidate drugs is frequently impacted by clinical dose level limitations due to lung histopathological findings or functional effects identified in in vivo studies. Addressing these safety concerns is crucial in advancing comp
This is a scoping review of low-intensity, home-based interventions promoting learning for 11–17-year-olds in foster care. Research shows that children in out-of-home care fall behind in school compared to their peers. Interventions to improve learning outcomes for these children typically i) target young children or children aging out of care, and ii) require many resources to implement. Lo
Additive manufacturing (AM) makes it feasible to realise complex lattice structuresthat provide structural flexibility through engineered structural design rather thanrelying solely on material softness. Across sectors such as furniture, healthcare,protective equipment, and robotics, such flexibility is a core functional requirement,that influences comfort, fit, impact response, lightweighting, an
