  1. 1. Improving the Sustainability Performance of Building Materials: An Approach from Life Cycle Thinking

    Författare :Jun Kono; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable product development; LCA; Social Life Cycle Assessment; sustainable building; Life cycle assessment;

    Sammanfattning : The construction industry is expected to play a vital role in meeting the global societal challenge of ensuring sustainable development. Due to the increasing importance of the embodied impact of materials, this thesis investigates how the sustainability performance of building materials can be improved. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Life-Cycle Energy and Carbon Implications of Wood-Based Products and Construction

    Författare :Roger Sathre; Leif Gustavsson; Birger Solberg; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; forest products; climate change mitigation; carbon balance; energy; life cycle; wood; land use; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Forests can be an important element of an overall strategy to limit the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) that contributes to climate change. As an integral part of the global carbon cycle, forests remove CO2 from the atmosphere as they grow, and accumulate carbon in tree biomass. LÄS MER

    Författare :Astrid von Euler-Chelpin; Torsten Kjellberg; Serge Tichkiewitch; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Information modelling; manufacturing resource model; manufacturing system life cycle; STEP; PLCS; Informatics; Informatik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with information modelling within the scope of the manufacturing system life cycle, i.e. the development phase and the operation phase. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Industry Dynamics and Relatedness of Knowledge: Knowledge Transfer Through Labor Mobility and Entrepreneurship in the West Swedish Textile Industry

    Författare :Snöfrid Börjesson Herou; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Relatedness; knowledge transfer; industry dynamics; labor mobility; entrepreneurship; cognitive proximity; industry life-cycle phases;

    Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis investigates how industry dynamics are influenced by knowledge transferred through labor mobility and entrepreneurship by focusing on the role of relatedness of the knowledge. The empirical setting is the textile industry in the West Swedish region Västra Götaland, which encompasses the sub-industries Manufacturing of textiles and Wholesale and retail trade of textiles.

  7. 5. Simplified Life Cycle Assessment Approaches and Potential Impact Shifts

    Författare :Katja Tasala Gradin; Sofia Ritzén; Anna Hedlund-Åström; Matthias Finkbeiner; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LCA simplification approach; impact shift; reduction measures; road transport; streamlining; screening; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : Road transport contributes to approximately one quarter of all EU greenhouse gas emissions and is the leading cause of air pollution in cities. There are significant measures aimed at the reduction of use phase environmental impacts; in the EU, these strategies focus on the decarbonisation of road transport, such as through the prioritization of low- and zero-emission vehicles.
