1. Soil compaction and the effect on infiltration in urban green environments : A study based on field measurements and HYDRUS 1D modelling
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå,Sammanfattning : The consequences of recent flooding and extreme rain events have highlighted the importance of proper urban planning and preventative measures for storm water management. As cities become more urbanized the significance of permeable surfaces such as parks and other urban green spaces increases which infiltrate the water into the ground. LÄS MER
2. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. LÄS MER
3. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraSammanfattning : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. LÄS MER
4. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.

5. Energy Efficiency Assessment,based on Field Measurements andComputational Simulations : A Swedish Hypermarket’s case study
Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Sammanfattning : This study aims to compare the energy consumption of a supermarket according to field measurements and results from building’s simulation software. Additionally, measures of energy efficiency to minimize the energy intensity of the supermarket are investigated. LÄS MER
