  1. 1. Spatial variations of the urban climate and its influence on thermal comfort and behaviour

    Författare :Fredrik Lindberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sky view factor; air temperature; surface temperature; GIS; raster modelling; mean radiant temperature; globe temperature; the SOLWIEG-model; human behaviour; outdoor activity;

    Sammanfattning : The increased number of people living in urban areas emphasises the need for an improved understanding of how the urban climate affects human activity and behaviour. The spatial and temporal variation of climate within cities is an important factor in people’s health and well-being. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Climate and dengue fever : early warning based on temperature and rainfall

    Författare :Yien Ling Hii; Nawi Ng; Joacim Rocklöv; Rainer Sauerborn; Sven Britton; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dengue fever; temperature; rainfall; forecasting model; early warning; epidemic; dengue risk index; folkhälsa; Public health;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Dengue is a viral infectious disease that is transmitted by mosquitoes. The disease causes a significant health burden in tropical countries, and has been a public health burden in Singapore for several decades. Severe complications such as hemorrhage can develop and lead to fatal outcomes. LÄS MER

  3. 3. ZrN based Nanostructured Hard Coatings : Structure-Property Relationship

    Författare :Phani Kumar Yalamanchili; Magnus Odén; Naureen Ghafoor; Emilio Jiménez-Piqué; Jon Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Ever since the hard coatings have been introduced, there has been a constant push for better mechanical properties, which motivates for deeper understanding of the microstructure-mechanical properties correlation. The aim of this thesis is to extend the knowledge on how microstructural variation influences the deformation, fracture and wear behavior of ZrN based nanostructured coatings. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Biomass-derived nanoscopic catalysts for water treatment : Structure-property relationship investigation

    Författare :Jianhong Chen; Adam Slabon; Germán Salazar Alvarez; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; green chemistry; water purification; electrochemistry; photochemistry; biomass material; structure-property relationship; oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Green Chemistry has received widespread interest due to its capacity to meet environmental and economic objectives. The Twelve Principles were proposed to better perform Green Chemistry and have become the guideline for solving many environmental issues. Water contamination has become a major global challenge in the 21st century. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The Physical Environment and Occupant Thermal Perceptions in Office Buildings An Evaluation of Sampled Data from Five European Countries

    Författare :John Leland Stoops; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal sensation; Europe; thermal preference; seasonal variation; office buildings; temperature perception; outdoor temperature; interior temperature; field study; thermal comfort; Clo; Met; carbon dioxide;

    Sammanfattning : The results from a large field study of thermal comfort in European office buildings are reported. Measurements of physical environmental conditions and occupant perceptions were collected over sixteen months from twenty-six different office buildings located in France, Greece, Portugal, Sweden and the UK.
