Sverige elektrifierar i snabb takt, vilket driver en stor energiomställning där förnybara energikällor som vind- och solkraft spelar en nyckelroll. Dessa medför väldigt lite koldioxidutsläpp och är ett nödvändigt steg mot ett mer hållbart samhälle. Men är det verkligen så enkelt som att bara bygga mer vind- och solkraft - och kan vi förvänta oss samma robusta och pålitliga elförsörjning som vi tidThe electric power system is undergoing a major change through the implementation of a large number of variable renewable energy sources (VRE), driven by the goal to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions from electricity production. This transition increases the need for a more flexible and dynamic power system capable of maintaining voltage and frequency stability under changing operating conditions. U

Farewell Falsterbo Farewell Falsterbo is fictive. However, it is knowledge-based speculation. Much of the story is inspired by existing proposals, emerging innovations, or research on the transformations needed to adapt our societies to climate change. We have collected some of these imaginative seeds below so that you can understand and construct your own vision of the future. Contents Click the

The Global Diabetes Alliance Background The Global Diabetes Alliance (GDA) is a not-for-profit international alliance, established in 2007 and steered by a multinational collaborative panel of leading scientists in the field of diabetes. The GDA is forming a growing ‘virtual diabetes research community’, that is responding to the “tsunami” of diabetes, which threatens the well-being of millions of

The research at the Centre is interdisciplinary in nature and focuses on contemporary societies in East and South-East Asia. The Centre covers a range of different countries in the region, including Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Japan, Myanmar, South Korea and Thailand, and researchers are engaged in both individual and collaborative projects. Research addresses current domestic challenges and devel

This paper is about drug prevention. In my paper the aim is to examine when, where and how the drug prevention work, by law, is being realized, on local levels, in school and municipality, towards youth. My central questions are among others: What does it imply, how the municipality and school value the drug prevention work?, Which prevention programs do the municipality and school use? and Does

Ecotourism is a strong and upcoming branch of the traditional tourism industry. Is there a strong demand among tourists for travelling in accordance with ecological and ethical principles? This study uses an established framework for the definition of ecotourism to estimate the demand for some ecotourism criteria among visitors at the Cuyabeno Reserve in Ecuador. A survey based on the Choice Exper

On 20 May 2014, Malawi arranged tripartite elections for president, parliament and local councils. The elections were remarkable for several reasons, seen from both an African and a Malawian perspective. Despite an uneven electoral playing field, the elections were highly competitive, ultimately leading to the country’s second turnover of power when opposition challenger Peter Mutharika defeated t

For simulating mobile MIMO performance, local area SNR variations can be reproduced if small-scale fading distributions are known, transmit bandwidths can be chosen appropriately if flat fading bandwidths are known, and, assuming plane waves, spatial covariance functions can be estimated if power-weighted histograms for angles of arrival (AOA) and angles of departure (AOD) are known. This paper re

The spin polarization in centrosymmetric molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) bulk crystal is recorded by helicity dependent photocurrent exposed as elliptically polarized terahertz (THz) emission. We assign this observation to hidden spin polarization due to the local Dresselhaus effect induced by the molybdenum atomic site asymmetry. This spin polarization induces ultrafast optically controlled circular

Varumärket utgörs idag inte endast av företagets produkter och tjänster, utan av hela fö-retaget. Medarbetarna har därför en viktig roll i varumärkesbyggandet då deras beteen-den påverkar hur kunder uppfattar varumärket. Studiens syfte är att, genom kvalitativa intervjuer med medarbetare på Fujitsu i Malmö, skapa en ökad förståelse för medarbeta-rens kommunikationsroll i en konsultorganisations vaA brand does no longer consist only of products and services, but of the company as a whole. Coworkers therefore have an important role in branding since their behaviours affect how customers perceive the brand. This study aims at, through qualitative interviews with coworkers at Fujitsu in Malmö, creating an increased understanding of coworkers’ communication role in a consulting company’s brand,

The report describes a control system for a new mechanical design of a stabilized platform. The platform design is based on rotation of two medges. It has the advantage that mechanical design is very simple. A key difficulty is that the transformation from platform orientation angles to gimbal angles in nonlinear and that it has a singularity. A control system based on local linearization of the t

We use the exact strong-interaction limit of the Hohenberg-Kohn energy density functional to construct an approximation for the exchange-correlation term of the Kohn-Sham approach. The resulting exchange-correlation potential is able to capture the features of the strongly correlated regime without breaking the spin or any other symmetry. In particular, it shows "bumps" (or barriers) that give ris

Burdur Lake, which is located in southwest of Turkey in Lake Region, and has been drying rapidly in the last 30 years. Disappearance of the water from the lake brings dramatic changes to the region on both socio-economic and cultural levels. This paper explores the processes that brought Burdur Lake and its locals to the point where the lake is today. Transformations in cultural habits and everyda

This paper examines the relationship between environmental accidents and voting. Following the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, environmentalist parties entered parliaments in several nations. This paper uses Chernobyl as a natural experiment creating variation in radioactive fallout exposure over Sweden. I match municipality-level data on cesium ground contamination with election results for the environm

Spring water, however, is often formed in complex geological formations and therefore it is difficult to determine the catchment area contributing to the flow. The Sayanokami spring, located in western part of Fukuoka City, Japan, is such a spring and an important water resource for the local agriculture. In order to better understand the hydrological properties of infiltration and groundwater pro

Do negative income shocks increase conflict risk? I study the relationship between desert locust infestations and conflict in 26 African countries. Combining geolocalized data on locust swarms and bands with information on conflict events, I construct two panel datasets at spatial resolutions 0.5◦ × 0.5◦ and 0.1◦ × 0.1◦, covering the years 1997–2017. I find a negative relationship between locust i

Extending the use of Monte Carlo (MC) event generators to jets in nuclear collisions requires a probabilistic implementation of the non-abelian LPM effect. We demonstrate that a local, probabilistic MC implementation based on the concept of formation times can account fully for the LPM-effect. The main features of the analytically known eikonal and collinear approximation can be reproduced, but we

In the current study, the effects of the nonlocally generated long sea surface waves (swells) on the power production of a 2 × 2 wind farm are investigated by using large-eddy simulations (LES) and actuator-line method (ALM). The short sea waves are modeled as a roughness height, while the wave-induced stress accounting for swell effects is added as an external source term to the momentum equation
