1. 1. Modelling the Resilience of Offshore Renewable Energy System Using Non-constant Failure Rates

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Författare :Mussie Abraham Beyene; [2021]
   Nyckelord :offshore renewable energy; resilience; wave energy farm; vulnerability; characterization; weather climates; failure rate; wind energy farm; generalized extreme value method; significant wave height; wind speed;

   Sammanfattning : Offshore renewable energy systems, such as Wave Energy Converters or an Offshore Wind Turbine, must be designed to withstand extremes of the weather environment. For this, it is crucial both to have a good understanding of the wave and wind climate at the intended offshore site, and of the system reaction and possible failures to different weather scenarios.

3. 2. Estimating the probability of levee failure for flood risk mapping : An application to Paglia River

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Författare :Theodora Neromylioti; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Levee failure; inner erosion; piping; backward erosion; seepage; probability of failure; fragility curves; time-dependent failure; hydraulic modelling; flood risk; flood inundation; HEC-RAS;

   Sammanfattning : Climate change results to more extreme and frequent flood events that induce extra risk to flood protection structures such as levees. Thus, estimation of the probability of levee failure is of utmost importance when it comes to structural safety and flood risk assessment. LÄS MER
