1. 1. Making architecture politically : from fresh conservatism to aestehtics as a form of politics

   Författare :Roemer Van Toorn; Jüri Soolep; Arie Graafland; Estonia Tallinn Estonian Academy of Arts; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architecture; Politics; Aesthetics; Architecture in the Netherlands; Secon Modernity; Society of the And; Fresh Conservatism; aesthetics; estetik; design; design; politikvetenskap; political science;

   Sammanfattning : This research comes from a particular place, a rather unique moment in the history of the Netherlands when Dutch architecture started to be much applauded for its radical approach and innovative design when the typhoon of another modernization swept across the globe. Architects, municipalities, investors, developers, companies, institutions, politicians, inhabitants, educators, researchers, critics and alike, were all thrown into a kind of experimental condition, one being both pragmatic and geographical.

3. 2. Rhine cities - urban flood integration (UFI) : German and Dutch adaptation and mitigation strategies

   Författare :Cornelia Redeker; V.J. Meyer; Netherlands Delft Department of Urbanism Faculty of Architecture and The Built Environment Delft University of Technology; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Flood management; Rhine; Germany; Netherlands; Urban Flood Integration; climate change; klimatförändringar; sustainability; hållbarhet; design; design;

   Sammanfattning : Flood Risk Management along the Rhine today combines river expanding measures and adaptive strategies with the existing defensive system to cope with the risk increase as a consequence of previous interventions and developments and fluctuations in water levels due to climate change. Differences in landscapes and urgencies and differences in planning cultures between the Upper and Lower Rhine and the Delta have also led to different strategic approaches. LÄS MER

4. 3. Orangerier : orangerier vid vallonbruk i Uppland

   Författare :Jan G. Holmberg; Jadwiga Krupinska; Torbjörn Jilar; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; orangeries; 18th century Sweden; Walloon furnaces; farden history; horticulture; Architecture; Arkitektur; History subjects; Historieämnen;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to describe and analyse the reception and development of the orangery in the county of Uppland, Sweden, during the 18th century. A main obstacle for the gardeners and their governors must have been the local climate in Uppland, a county at the south border of Norrland, the very north part of Sweden. LÄS MER

5. 4. Demonstration Projects for Sustainable Building: Towards a Strategy for Sustainable Development in the Building Sector based on Swedish and Dutch Experience

   Författare :Paula Femenias; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable development; demonstration projects; sustainable building; case studies; change agency; architecture; housing; discourse in trade press; building sector; learning from experience; information dissemination;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis explores demonstration projects as a potential strategy for supporting processes towards sustainable development in the building sector through making mainstream building more sustainable. The research question has been approached in four empirical studies carried out in Sweden and the Netherlands, which study demonstration projects for sustainable housing from different perspectives.

7. 5. Non-intrusive Methods for Mode Estimation in Power Systems using Synchrophasors

   Författare :Vedran Peric; Luigi Vanfretti; Xavier Bombois; Cristian Rojas; Mani V. Venkatasubramanian; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Synchrophasors; Phasor measurement units; system identification; mode estimation; electromechanical oscillations; prediction error; signal selection; experiment design; probing; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Real-time monitoring of electromechanical oscillations is of great significance for power system operators; to this aim, software solutions (algorithms) that use synchrophasor measurements have been developed for this purpose. This thesis investigates different approaches for improving mode estimation process by offering new methods and deepening the understanding of different stages in the mode estimation process. LÄS MER
