Smart Micro-Grid Performance using Renewable Energy

2020

The aim of this research is to determine the performance of PV panels, wind turbines, battery storage and power imported from the grid to the system which will ensure a reliable energy supply, as well as the technical feasibility of a smart microgrid system. Indonesia’s renewable energy potential for electricity reaches 443 GW, where solar energy is the largest potential, namely 4.8 KWh m–2 or equivalent to 112 000 GWp, but only 10 MWp has been utilized. The most basic problem in this system, namely, the uncertainty of wind energy and solar energy, one of the most vital factors in the optimal size of a renewable energy-based smart microgrid system is the reliability of the system being buil…

Multiscale variation in drought controlled historical forest fire activity in the boreal forests of eastern Fennoscandia

2017

Forest fires are a key disturbance in boreal forests, and characteristics of fire regimes are among the most important factors explaining the variation in forest structure and species composition. The occurrence of fire is connected with climate, but earlier, mostly local-scale studies in the northern European boreal forests have provided little insight into fire-climate relationship before the modern fire suppression period. Here, we compiled annually resolved fire history, temperature, and precipitation reconstructions from eastern Fennoscandia from the mid-16th century to the end of the 19th century, a period of strong human influence on fires. We used synchrony of fires over the network…

Macro-micro relationship in nanostructured functional composites

2012

This paper examines the results of the characterization of two functional composites: Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-Ce:YAG (yttrium aluminium garnet doped with cerium) and PMMA-cobalt hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF). The composites were prepared as possible emitters in the fields of lighting thermal sensors. The prepared composites were char- acterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, thermogravi- metric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) analyses to study the correlation between micro and macro characteristics. We found that the molecular interactions of the two different fill…

From the Shadow of a Myth to an Academic Subject : Teaching Writing from a Cognitive Base

2021

In order to truly understand one’s teaching methods and share them with others, one first needs to understand what has been done in the past. The aim is to become conscious of habits, models and attitudes that have become a part of local lore – either in studies of creative writing or in the education system in general. One way to do this is to read creative writing guides written in different periods of time. This paper examines Finnish writing guides published since 1900. It also shows how teaching creative writing slowly became possible in Finland. Finally, the article describes how the historical situation, writing guides and academic tradition influenced the practice of teaching writin…

Qui dit Noël dit cadeaux: critical reading of an article by Kentaro Koga (2020)

2022

While noting the significant peculiarities of the construction Qui dit Noël dit cadeau, Kentaro Koga has launched a series of research on all the infrastructures of this construction, with the aim of revealing their internal organization and identifying their possible lexical and syntactic variations. This article – « Qui dit Noël dit cadeau : modèle, variation et idées conventionnelles » – by Kentaro Koga, established from his own collection of linguistic data, studies the uses of the construction qui dit X dit Y in the French nowadays. Nevertheless, it seems that his conclusions are more or less arbitrary, which il the reason why we will re-examine this construction from other hermeneutic…

Enhancing the Collaborative Governance in Post-disaster Reconstruction: A Dynamic Performance Management Approach

2020

The impact of natural disasters on human life was blatantly demonstrated through media reports of recent events such as the Ache tsunami in 2004, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the Wenchuan Earthquake in 2008 and Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami in 2010-2011. Rising from the rubbles, our societies strive to learn from the experiences of how to build a better life and avoid future catastrophes. Post-disaster reconstruction (PDR) plays a crucial role in providing a safer and more resilient living environment for people, particularly for those disaster victims. This thesis focused on how implementing a collaborative governance approach in post-disaster reconstruction can offer effective solutions to …
