  1. 1. System Expansion and Allocation in Life Cycle Assessment With Implications for Wastepaper Management

    Författare :Tomas Ekvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modelling; paper recycling; waste incineration; environmental life cycle assessment; LCI methodology; allocation; waste management; system expansion; system boundaries; life cycle inventory analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The choice of system boundaries and allocation methods can have decisive effects on the results and conclusions of a life cycle assessment (LCA). System expansion makes it possible to model the indirect effects of a decision; however, this modelling is often based on inaccurate assumptions. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Four-Body Treatment of the Hydrogen-Antihydrogen System

    Författare :Henrik Stegeby; Piotr Froelich; Alejandro Saenz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antimatter; antihydrogen; four-body system; Adiabatic approximation; Born-Oppenheimer; elastic scattering; stabilization method; resonance states; coupled arrangement channels; coupled rearrangement channels; Gaussian Expansion Method; Antimateria; antiväte; fyrkroppars system; adiabatisk approximation; stabilisationsmetoden; resonanstillstånd; spridningstillstånd; kopplade arrangemangskanaler; Quantum Chemistry; Kvantkemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a nonadiabatic (4-body) description of the hydrogen-antihydrogen system at a nonrelativistic level. The properties of the system, the rearrangement processes and the possible existence of resonance states are investigated by using a variational method for coupled arrangement channels, the Gaussian Expansion Method, and the stabilization method.

  3. 3. Seeing and Knowing the Earth as a System : An Effective History of Global Environmental Change Research as Scientific and Political Practice

    Författare :Ola Uhrqvist; Eva Lövbrand; Bjön-Ola Linnér; Sabine Höhler; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Earth system; Global change; Governmentality; History of the present; history of environmental science; Jordsystemet; Globala miljöförändringar; Governmentality; nuets historia; miljövetenskapernas historia; internationella forskningsprogram; miljöpolitik;

    Sammanfattning : Previous research connecting scientific knowledge production with governing of the global environment usually start in international climate change negotiations and related assessments. From that vantage point Earth system science and models are studied as an expansion of Global Circulation Models. LÄS MER

  4. 4. District heating comes to town : The social shaping of an energy system

    Författare :Jane Summerton; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; district heating; municipal technology; energy system; pipeline; large t<:chnical system; actor network; multiorganization; grid; grid-based energy system; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the introduction of district heating in an "ordinary" Swedish town: Mjölby. The process was initiated in 1974 and the decision to build was taken in 1979. In the following years pipelines were laid down and the system was gradually built. In 1987, a permanent heat plant was ready to assume operation. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Externally unbonded post-tensioned CFRP tendons : a system solution

    Författare :Anders Bennitz; Chris Burgoyne; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFRP; prestress; tendon; external; unbonded; anchorage; beams; CFRP; förspänning; vajer; utanpåliggande; icke vidhäftande; förankring; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The introduction of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) to the civil engineering market in the late 1980s resulted in the emergence of a range of new tools for rehabilitating and strengthening concrete structures. Strengthening using FRPs is typically accomplished using non-prestressed externally bonded FRPs. LÄS MER
