  1. 1. Selecting Architectural and Engineering Consultants: Municipal Practices in Sweden

    Författare :Josefin Sporrong; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; public procurement; architectural and engineering services; construction; local government; professional services; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACTNew political ambitions, not least in the area of sustainability, have gradually generated a need for new and developed procurement practices. Internationally as well as in Sweden, traditional price-focused procurement strategies are often used in construction-related procurement although new political goals call for more flexible approaches.

  2. 2. A Virtual Design Studio for Low-Frequency Sound from Walking in Lightweight Buildings

    Författare :Nata Amiryarahmadi; Sweden Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lightweight floors; Walking sound; Low frequency; Annoyance; Virtual design studio;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years there has been a growing interest for building lightweight multistorey woodenresidential buildings in countries like Sweden with large and renewable forests. While positive aspectsof these buildings, such as sustainability, ease of construction and lightness, motivate building more inwood, poor acoustic performance is a risk which concerns the wooden-building industry.

  3. 3. Public intermediaries in the energy transition - A study of municipal energy advisors in Sweden

    Författare :Lisa Bastås; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy advising; public; intermediaries; solar photovoltaic; private; energy; Sweden; transitions; sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : To mitigate climate change, a transition toward more sustainable energy production and consumption is crucial. In particular, this requires widespread adoption of renewable electricity technologies, such as solar photovoltaics (PV). As the adoption of such technologies can be challenging for new adopters, support actors such as intermediaries (i.e. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Assessment of PHEV potential to reduce fuel use in Sweden using GPS data for car movements

    Författare :Lars Henrik Björnsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PHEV potential; battery size; GPS-logging; PHEV viability; PHEV; Sweden; electrification; Individual movement pattern;

    Sammanfattning : Roughly 30% of Sweden’s total greenhouse gas emissions originate from transport. These emissions need to be reduced to be able to reach the by The Swedish parliament adopted goal of a carbon neutral society in 2050. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Exploring the Role of Business Models in Large-Scale Diffusion of Solar Photovoltaics - A study of demand-side solar firms in Sweden

    Författare :Amanda Bankel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; firm; innovation; sustainability; Sweden; photovoltaic; business model; diffusion; solar; system; policy;

    Sammanfattning : A rapid and large-scale diffusion of renewable energy technologies, like solar photovoltaics (PV), is crucial to slow down climate change. Research on technology diffusion explains that the rate and scale at which a new technology diffuses in society is influenced by the actors, networks, and institutions that make up its innovation system.
