This article quantifies the energy saving potential and robustness of nine energy retrofitting measures, as well as four combinations of these, for residential building stocks of three major cities in Sweden and for five scenarios of future climatic conditions, downscaled by a regional climate model (RCM). The retrofitting measures are evaluated for five temporal resolutions of hourly, daily, mont
In cold/arid agricultural regions seasonal freezing/thawing of soils can result in soil salinization in winter; therefore, it is crucial to understand the mechanisms behind soil salinization during winter for better water management in agriculture. In Hetao Irrigation District of Inner Mongolia, northern China, we used the CoupModel (version 5) considering dynamical impacts of salt on soil freezin

A great part of the soil remediation projects in Sweden today are being carried out on heterogeneous contaminated areas where for example industrial activities have been going on for a long time. In many cases waste from the industrial processes have been dumped or spread out on the property, and there is no pattern in the occurrence of contaminants. The distribution of the concentration of the co
Smarttelefonen används alltmer som redskap i psykoterapeutisk behandling men hittills har ingen kontrollerad studie provat om behandling av social fobi kan förmedlas genom smarttelefon. Denna randomiserade och kontrollerade studie undersökte guidad självhjälpsbehandling vid social fobi förmedlad via smarttelefon med syfte att dels jämföra behandlingar och dels att studera olika patientfaktorers beThe use of smartphones as a tool for administering psychological treatment is increasing, however, there is so far no controlled studies showing that social anxiety disorder (SAD) can be treated in this way.

This Master’s thesis is performed on behalf of Alfa Laval, a multinational company providing technological products and services.
Alfa Laval has in the past had a lot of successful mergers, but there were also those cases that led to sell off and those that had potential to add more value than was actually realized. In the common case, it has been shown that 60-70 per cent of M&As fall sho
Using the characteristics of a fire scenario as a starting point, the authors illuminated the risks using textile membranes as a building material. The burning away of the membrane and the opening of a natural smoke evacuation was chosen for further studies. Using input from validation experiments the authors simulated these experiments in FDS to explore the agreement. There was uncertainties in f

Föreningar har överlag svårt att rekrytera och engagera nya medlemmar till sin verksamhet. Det är främst i målgruppen unga vuxna, som antalet engagerade är underrepresenterade. Detta är både ett samhällsproblem och ett problem hos många föreningar. Vi är därför nyfikna på hur ideella organisationer arbetar med sitt varumärke för att nå denna målgrupp. Vårt syfte med denna uppsats är att fördjupa k
