1. The Karma of Products : Exploring the Causality of Environmental Pressure with Causal Loop Diagram and Environmental Footprint
Sammanfattning : Environmental pressures from consumer products and mechanisms of predetermination were examined in this thesis using causal loop diagram (CLD) and life cycle assessment (LCA) footprinting to respectively illustrate and provide some indicators about these mechanisms. Theoretical arguments and their practical implications were subjected to qualitative and quantitative analysis, using secondary and primary data. LÄS MER
2. Making Possible by Making Visible : Learning through Visual Representations in Social Science
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses upon the relationship between teaching and learning of dynamic phenomena and processes in social science and the use of visual representations in social science teaching. Teaching in social science uses many visual representations, such as models, flowcharts and diagrams, in order to help students to grasp phenomena, structures and processes in society. LÄS MER
3. Industrial Ecology Approaches to Improve Metal Management : Three Modeling Experiments
Sammanfattning : A linear model of consumption − produce-use-dispose − has constantly increased the pressure on the environment in recent decades. There has been a great belief that technology will solve the problem, but in many cases it is only partly contributing to the solution. For a full solution, the root causes of problems need to be identified. LÄS MER
4. Developing Methods for Modelling Procedures in System Analysis and System Dynamics
Sammanfattning : System Thinking is the mindset of defining and confining a problem and its symptoms as well as a method for communicating system understanding. System Analysis is taking that problem apart to understand its causalities and structural arrangement. LÄS MER
5. A System Dynamics Analysis of Cost-Recovery A Study of Rural Minigrid Utilities in Tanzania
Sammanfattning : Over one billion people live in poverty around the world. Access to modern energy sources such as electricity is considered important in social and economic development. LÄS MER
