1. 16. NOUR - Daylighting and thermal effects of windows in desert houses

   Författare :Djamel Ouahrani; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal simulation; Solar aspects; Housing architecture; Ghardaia; Desert; Daylighting simulation; Daylighting; Data collecting; Data analysis; Culture; Climate adaption; Algeria; Architecture; Traditional architecture; Windows; interior design; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur;

   Sammanfattning : This study is on a combined effect of window, the daylighting and the thermal effects, in desert houses. It is comprised of two complementary studies. In the introduction a historical review on the development of use daylight has been carried out in order to place the case study in a historical perspective. LÄS MER

3. 17. Risk-based ship security analysis : a decision-support approach

   Författare :Hans Liwång; Jonas W. Ringsberg; Martin Norsell; Rolf Skjong; Försvarshögskolan; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; naval ship; piracy; risk-based; risk control options; ship security analysis; survivability; uncertainty analysis; militära fartyg; sjöröveri; riskanalys; sjöfartsskydd; överlevnadsförmåga; Försvarssystem; Military Technology;

   Sammanfattning : The protection of shipping does not come without hazards and threats for military forces, individual civilian ship operators and crews. With particular focus on security threats, this thesis is about how to prepare for such operations without introducing unnecessary risks, i.e., supporting conscious risk-taking related to ship security.

4. 18. Benefits of Coordinating Plug-In Electric Vehicles in Electric Power Systems : Through Market Prices and Use-of-System Network Charges

   Författare :Ilan Momber; Lennart Söder; Tomás Gómez San Román; José Villar Collado; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric Vehicles; Power Systems; Optimization; Elektrische Voertuigen; Energiesystemen; Optimalisatie; Elbilarna; Elkraftsystem; Optimering; Vehiculos Electricos; Sistemas de Potencia; Optimización; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Sammanfattning : Both electric power systems and the transportation sector are essential constituents to modern life, enhancing social welfare, enabling economic prosperity and ultimately providing well-being to the people. However, to mitigate adverse climatological effects of emitting greenhouse gases, a rigorous de-carbonization of both industries has been set on the political agenda in many parts of the world.

5. 19. Probing Control of Glucose Feeding in Escherichia coli Cultivations

   Författare :Mats Åkesson; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatiska system; control engineering; robotics; Automation; dissolved oxygen; acetate; glucose feeding; robotteknik; Escherichia coli; Process control; fed-batch cultivation; reglerteknik; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Production of many proteins can today be made using genetically modified organisms. One of the most frequently used host organisms is the bacterium Escherichia coli. A difficulty encountered in cultivations of E. coli is the accumulation of the metabolic by-product acetate which inhibits cell growth and production of a desired protein. LÄS MER

7. 20. Vindkraft, landskap och mening. En studie om vindkraft och människans rumsliga preferenser

   Författare :Tom Böhler; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; culture; technology; nature; view of nature; renewable energy; ecocycles; environment; ecological modernisation; discourse; discursive coalitions; meaning; landscape; wind power; Sweden;

   Sammanfattning : The point of departure for this thesis is a core question in present-day environmental work, namely how to balance the conservation of nature against its utilisation. A wind power venture on a large scale energy production will, for instance, obviously have an impact on the natural scenery of the coastline. LÄS MER
