  1. 1. Grundisolering för flerbostadshus : Jämförelse av cellglas och cellplast avseende energieffektivisering, ekonomiska aspekter och miljöpåverkan

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Författare :Samir Akhras; Mustafa Arab; Ahmed Yasin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Thermal insulation; cellular glass insulation; expanded polystyrene insulation EPS ; extruded polystyrene insulation XPS ; energy balance; moisture; specific heat losses and life cycle analysis.;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: This project compares two foundation insulation materials: cellular plastic and cellular glass. Currently, cellular plastic is the most used material for foundation insulation. While cellular glass is not widely utilized. Its disadvantage lies in its higher cost, which makes contractors prefer the cheaper alternative, cellular plastic. LÄS MER

  2. 2. A Feasibility Analysis of Natural Composite Alternatives in High Performance Sailing Vessels

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Författare :Sabrina Smith; [2023]
    Nyckelord :F50 catamaran; sustainable materials; marine applications; flax laminates; mechanical testing; environmental analysis; weight distribution; yacht performance;

    Sammanfattning : The construction of high-performance vessels like the F50 catamaran has traditionally prioritized advanced composite materials and performance-driven design. However, there is a growing need to incorporate sustainable materials and practices, with their performance in marine applications remaining relatively unknown. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Assessing the relation between temperature buffering, soil moisture, and canopy cover in a Swedish coniferous forest

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Mark Van der Keijl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Temperature buffering; forest microclimate; soil moisture; canopy cover; forest management; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Forests buffer temperature extremes through processes such as canopy shading, wind speed reduction, and evapotranspiration. As a result, microclimates are formed within forests whose climatic conditions are distinctly different from the surrounding macroclimate. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Improved Understanding of Water Balance in the Malwathu Oya River Basin Using SWAT and Remote Sensing

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Alexander Fors; [2022]
    Nyckelord :actual evapotranspiration; Malwathu Oya; remote sensing; Sri Lanka; SWAT modelling; SWAT calibration; WaPOR; water balance; faktisk evapotranspiration; fjärranalys; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; SWAT-modellering; SWAT-kalibrering; vattenbalans; WaPOR;

    Sammanfattning : As the need for climatic data is increasing in times of climate change and water scarcity, remote sensing (RS) and hydrological modelling are ways to battle these problems, especially in data scarce areas. The actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is one of the key parameters when assessing the water balance and a good estimate of this parameter is thus of great importance. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Anaerobic Co-digestion of steam pretreated wheat straw and sewage sludge

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Författare :Virginia Tosi; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Anaerobic co-digestion; wheat straw pretreatment; nutrients availability; OLR; VFA acumulation; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion (AD) of wastes and residues is a widely applied and explored process. However, when the process is not optimized, inadequate concentrations of nutrients and inhibitory compounds are common and can lead to low maximum organic loading rates and increased risk of process problems, low organic dry solids degradation rate and reduced methane yields.
