A novel life-cycle assessment (LCA) model has been developed for the investigation of the environmental impact of the choice of material in cable production. In the first application polyolefin based material and PVC material is used. In both cases equivalent fire behaviour is assumed and a fire model is established based on existing fire statistics. This study represents the second full applicati
The purpose of the thesis relates to the Quality anomaly observed in the US equity market, where stocks with Quality characteristics tend to outperform and have higher risk adjusted returns. By dissecting the Quality anomaly, the thesis aims to analyze the drivers of the over performance of Quality and investigate the presence of a systematic Quality premium. From previous research, three areas ha
Climate change consequences are forecasted to severely affect urban life. Already in the past years, extreme events such as heat-waves, cloudbursts, and storm surges have strained cities’ infrastructures and inhabitants. In this thesis, I investigate the impact of extreme weather events on Public Transport (PT) in Hamburg/Germany. As a framework I apply the resilience concept with the four key di
Research at the division of Physical Chemistry deals with surface and colloid science with strong links between experiment and theory. This area is approached with a broad perspective ranging from basic considerations of intermolecular interaction and their manifestations in condensed systems to practical consequences in industry and medicine.

Kemiska institutionen är en gemensam institution för kemi inom den naturvetenskapliga fakulteten och den tekniska fakulteten (Lunds tekniska högskola, LTH). All forskning och utbildning vid institutionen sker på Kemicentrum, som är nordens största centrum för forskning och utbildning inom kemiområdet. All vår forskning har samma mål: forskning till förmån för ett hållbart samhälle. Vi bedriver foThe Department of Chemistry belongs to both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) at Lund University. All education and research at the department takes place at Kemicentrum, Scandinavias´s largest center for education and research in chemistry. We have a common goal of our research: research for the benefit of a sustainable society. We are conducting research within all ar
Vid avdelningen studeras biomolekylers växelverkan, struktur och dynamik för att förstå biologiska system och processer på molekylär nivå. Tonvikten ligger på experimentella och teoretiska studier av proteiners veckning och stabilitet, struktur och dynamik, samt deras växelverkan med andra molekyler. Den dominerande experimentella metoden är nukleär magnetresonans (NMR), såväl högupplösande spektrWe study biomolecular interactions, structure, and dynamics, with the aim of understanding biological systems and processes at the molecular level. The emphasis is on experimental and theoretical studies of the physical properties of proteins in solution: their folding, assembly, and stability; their 3D structures and conformational dynamics; their interactions with water, ions, and other solvent
I vår forskning använder vi oss av kohort- och registerbaserad information bland individer för att undersöka primärt obesitas och relaterade riskfaktorer i relation till risk för och överlevnad i sjukdom, ffa cancer. För närvarande fokuseras det mesta av vår forskning på ODDS (Obesity and Disease Development Sweden) studien som leds av vår grupp. ODDS inkluderar miljontals män och kvinnor i SverigIn our research, we use cohort- and register-based information in individuals to investigate primarily obesity and related risk factors, in relation to risk and survival of disease, primarily cancer. Currently, most of our research is focused on the Obesity and Disease Development Sweden (ODDS) study, which is led by our group. ODDS includes millions of men and women in Sweden with body size measu
This report is the thesis of the research and development project entitled: Development of a Resource Saving Concept for the Establishment of a Climate Suitable for the Storage of Objects Worthy of Preservation in Storerooms at Museums and in Archives. In short: The ZEPHYR project. This work is the result of a research and development project. The aim is to improve the possibilities of using pass
The effects of climate change are resulting in harmful impacts — known as loss and damage — hitting the most vulnerable countries the hardest. At COP27 in Sharm el- Sheikh, a new “loss and damage fund” was agreed upon, creating history within the international climate change policy arena. However, the question of who may benefit from this fund, remains. The fund is to address the countries that ar
Biofuels are still too costly to compete in the energy market and it has been suggested that low-value feedstocks could provide an opportunity for the production of low-cost biofuels; however, the lower quality of these feedstocks requires the introduction of a conditioning step in the biorefinery process. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether feedstock savings cover the cost of conditioni
In the attempt to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from steel production, several large industry decarbonization projects have emerged in Europe. The commercialization of low-emission steel technology, however, faces systemic barriers such as a lack of infrastructure and unclear demand for greener steel. As part of its new commitment to climate-neutrality, the European Commission has announced plan
The methylammonium cation in [CH3NH3]PbI3 demonstrates increasing positional disorder on heating from 100 K to 352 K. In the tetragonal phase, stable between 165 K and 327 K, the cation is disordered over four sites directed toward the faces of the distorted cubic [PbI3](-) framework and migrates towards the cavity centre with increasing temperature.
