1. 31. Towards a capability approach to mobility : An analysis of disparities in mobility opportunities among older people

   Författare :Jean Ryan; Anders Wretstrand; Steven Schmidt; Karen Lucas; Trafik och väg; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobility; Ageing; Transport equity; Capability Approach; Public transport; Cycling; Older people; Mobility; Ageing; Transport equity; Capability Approach; Public transport; Cycling; Older people;

   Sammanfattning : Older people represent a greater proportion of the population than ever before. In Sweden, one in five is now aged 65 and above, and more than one in seven is aged 65-79. This demographic change has challenged and will challenge society, presenting sizeable tasks for the transport sector. LÄS MER

3. 32. Development of a Risk-Based Decision Model for Prioritizing Microbial Risk Mitigation Measures in Drinking Water Systems

   Författare :Viktor Bergion; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantitative microbial risk assessment; microbial risks; pathogens; water quality modelling; drinking water system; cost-benefit analysis; decision support;

   Sammanfattning : Risk management of drinking water systems is crucial since our society relies on these systems to be robust and sustainable to supply safe drinking water now and to future generations. Pathogens may spread in drinking water systems and cause waterborne outbreaks resulting in human suffering and large costs to the society. LÄS MER

4. 33. Modeling pavement performance based on data from the Swedish LTPP database : predicting cracking and rutting

   Författare :Markus Svensson; Sigurdur Erlingsson; Helge Mork; Statens väg- och transportforskningsinstitut; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cracking; Rutting wheel ; Prediction; Calculation; Mathematical model; Flexible pavement; Performance; Sprickbildning; Spårbildning; Förutsägelser; Beräkning; Matematiska modeller; Flexibla överbyggnader; Prestanda; 32 Road: Pavement design; 32 Road: Pavement design;

   Sammanfattning : The roads in our society are in a state of constant degradation. The reasons for this are many, and therefore constructed to have a certain lifetime before being reconstructed. To minimize the cost of maintaining the important transport road network high quality prediction models are needed. LÄS MER

5. 34. Evolving Urban Culture in Transforming Cities Architectural and Urban Design in a Fluid Context

   Författare :Mir Azimzadeh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; evolution; generative process; space; configuration; culture; society; urban design; architecture; urban spatial systems; metamorphosis; domestic space; public space; place; analytic theory; space syntax; cultural types; local structure; urban function; housing estate; city; spatial interface; street system;

   Sammanfattning : The practice of architectural and urban design being involved in forming the space in our cities and built environments has certain effects on the social life in society that in its turn conditions the performance of the practice. The continuous changes in cities and societies, however, are just partially caused by the practice of architectural and urban design. LÄS MER

7. 35. Risk-Based Decision Model for Microbial Risk Mitigation in Drinking Water Systems

   Författare :Viktor Bergion; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; drinking water; quantitative microbial risk assessment; cost-benefit analysis; health risk; contaminant fate and transport modelling; economic valuation of health effects; pathogen;

   Sammanfattning : Microbial risks in drinking water systems can cause sporadic pathogenic infections and waterborne outbreaks resulting in large costs for society. In 2010 for example, around 27,000 persons were infected with Cryptosporidium in Östersund, Sweden. LÄS MER
