The electricity sector is in the beginning of a large shift from centralized dispatchable production to distributed variable production. With this necessary change, new challenges arise. One crucial challenge is related to upholding the system balance in the power grid. In this master thesis, a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) has been implemented in an HVDC-system with large amounts of Wind P
Moderaternas förslag om bidragstak syftar till att öka de ekonomiska incitamenten för hel- och deltidsarbete i gruppen av bidragstagare med arbetsmarknadsrelaterade försörjningshinder och högt ekonomiskt bistånd. Detta arbete är en typfallsstudie vilken behandlar förändringen i ekonomiska incitament vid införande av bidragstak. Förslagets potentiella påverkan studeras utifrån hur många hushåll som
Hur ärvs blomdoft? Att lukta gott är inte bara viktigt för oss människor. I växternas värld är doft, eller de kemiska doftsignalerna, livsviktigt för att kunna locka till sig pollinatörer eller avskräcka fiender. Vi vet redan mycket om hur insekter reagerar på kemiska signaler från växter och hur doft varierar mellan olika växtarter, men fortfarande väldigt lite om hur blomdoft ärvs inom växtpopuOne of the main challenges in evolutionary ecology is to identify the factors and agents that drive diversification. Two of the most diverse groups of organisms on earth are plants and insects, and evidence strongly suggests that the diversification of both groups is driven by the interactions between them. One fruitful way for understanding how these interactions evolve and diversify is to identi
Syftet med examensarbetet är att studera ledarskapet och ledarens roll i förändringsarbetet mot ett klimatneutralt byggande. I studien utreds vilka faktorer som driver förändringsarbetet mot ett klimatneutralt byggande och hur miljöarbetet kan bli mer attraktivt för anställda i svenska byggföretag. Studien har utförts på ett fallföretag och ett av deras projekt i produktionsfasen. En kvalitativ mThe purpose of this master thesis is to study the leadership and the roll of the leader during a change in the process towards a climate neutral construction process.

This thesis studies the distribution of accessibility by public transport to retail concentrations and public hospitals in Athens, using spatial autocorrelation analysis based on Local Indicators of Spatial Autocorrelation (LISA) method and Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR). For this reason, the study area was divided in a 300x300 meter square grid of points representing the location point
The ever-increasing need for higher performance and more complex functionality pushes the electronics industry to find a faster and more efficient way to test and debug an Integrated Circuit (IC). Currently, the IEEE Std. 1149.1, known as Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) is considered as state of the art by the industry. JTAG is used to perform debugging and testing through Test Access Port (TAP). H
Within the last twenty years, the Swedish military has been drastically reduced in size and capability. The conscription service was discontinued which made retaining personnel difficult. The service was reinstated nine years later due to the geopolitical instability around Sweden and the national goal to double personnel by 2035.

In order for civilian shipping and aviation to be able to operate within Swedish areas of responsibility, an absolute prerequisite is that the state must maintain a well-functioning sea and air rescue service. This requires constant, thorough surface coverage, year round and around the clock with qualified helicopter resources. Until 2002 Swedish national needs, both military and civilian, were ma
Statistical modelling of certain phenomenon to extract patterns is a common theme in data analysis. Applying this precise theme to call center data is riddled with many practical con- cerns and has lead to development of new concepts and theories in stochastic processes. In this thesis we intend to study specic call center dataset with the objective of studying patterns in call arrivals over a per
