Domain decomposition methods can be used to numerically solve partial differential equations for certain problems, for example in cases where the domain has an irregular shape, or if there are differences in material constants. By splitting the domain into subdomains, these problems can be solved using domain decomposition methods. In this thesis, the topic is solving the steady-state heat equatio

För att nå de mål som Parisavtalet satt upp måste de globala utsläppen av växthusgaser minska drastiskt de kommande åren. Sverige är ett av de mest framstående länderna i världen när det kommer tIn recent years, it has become increasingly recognized that the traditional production-based methods for calculations of greenhouse gas emissions have shortcomings. This is justified by the fact that such inventories only include emissions that occur within a particular geographical area. As major emissions also arise as a result of imports of goods and services and from international travel, such

About 96% of hydrogen is produced via chemical processes from fossil material globally and just 4% is obtained from environmentally friendly sources. Caldicellulosiruptor species are good candidates for hydrogen production via dark fermentation from a variety of substrates. They therefore provide a great opportunity to be used as decomposers of organic waste, lignocellulosic material and municipal

In the face of climate change wind energy plays an increasing role in Norway. The construction of new wind farms causes opposition and conflicts with, among others, Sámi reindeer herders who are concerned about losing their pastures.

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det var en gång... historien om en vulkan. The Dunedin Volcano är belägen utmed östkusten på Nya Zeelands södra ö. Stora delar av både östkusten och de centrala delarna har under de senaste 40 miljoner åren upplevt perioder med intra platt vulkanism orsakad av en temperatur anomali i övre manteln under både Nya Zeelands Sydö och delar av havet öster om. VulkaneThe Portobello Peninsula is made up by volcanic sediments, lava flows and numerous dikes. Deposition of sediments and lava flows is thought be early in the evolution of the Dunedin Volcano. The lava flows of Portobello Peninsula are silica saturated, belonging to a lineage differing from the two major lineages previously inferred to exist in the volcano (Coombs and Wilkinson, 1969).
