This thesis is dedicating to analysis the contribution of Knutpunkten building which is located in Helsingborg southern Sweden with regards to its visual impact role on the society and environment from its visual appearance of the elements of design mainly colour and light element. Different philosophical conceptions of colour and light from different theoretician notion is using as a main empiric

Researchers and practitioners have recognized the need for ‘transforming’ every policy of the company into a competitive advantage tool. Thus, both the pricing approach and the supply chain practices of the firm have emerged as an important determinant of success. In this study, however, we are not only interested in these two aspects, but also in a third one-namely cultural conflicts as an obstac

Every human being has the right to the highest attainable standard of health. This is regulated by the UN in the Declaration of Human Rights. However, Swedish legislation discriminate the group of irregular immigrants, regarding the right to health care. Therefore, Paul Hunt, the UN's special rapporteur on the right to health, draws serious critique on Sweden which has caused extensive debate

A method was developed, which drives the selection of appropriate solar control mechanisms based on theanalysis of overheating due to solar heat gains. The aim of the method is to maintain adequate thermalcomfort levels in highly glazed spaces. Two thermal comfort models, Predicted Mean Vote and AdaptiveModel, were chosen to set the thermal comfort boundaries included in the method. Moreover, in o

Research Student: Chia-Sui HsuDuration: 2011 – 2015 In the Western countries, the term back-to-the-land is associated with a counter-culture movement in the 1960s and 1970s. The radical and environmental consciousness embedded rural in-migration has received increased academic and public attention due to an increase in various initiatives of alternative food networks. In highly urbanized East Asia

Iben Lundgaard’s vision is driving international collaboration in neuroscience. After initiating the first Glymphatic and Brain Clearance Symposium in Lund, Sweden, in 2024, her lab recently attended the second meeting at Oxford, UK, connecting with over 250 scientists to advance research on brain clearance mechanisms critical for understanding neurodegenerative diseases. From 30 March to 1 April

Within the subject of housing development and management, developments in housing and urban areas are studied from an international perspective. This includes planning, design, production, use and management as well as the relationship between homes and their surroundings, from neighbourhood to city level. The aim is to understand how the process leads to good quality homes and how sustainable dev

Environmental psychology conducts research, teaching and collaborations focused on the interaction between people and the environment from the perspective of the individual. The environmental psychology research group was one of the first in Europe to focus on this subject. The subject is a separate doctoral subject that was established in 1980 under the leadership of Professor Rikard Küller.The s

The way to a Profession - Voices of students in social studies about their education The purpose of this study was to examine how students of social wcience view their education in relation to their future profession. The study was based on qualitative individual interviews with students at School of social work at Lund University in Sweden. The aim was to contribute to an understanding of the st

Building interaction prototypes for ubiquitous computing is inherently difficult, since it involves a number of different devices and systems. Prototyping is an important step in developing and evaluating interaction concepts. The ideal prototyping methodology should offer high fidelity at a relatively low cost. This thesis describes the development of interaction concepts for controlling consume

Transparency in artificial intelligence (AI) can mean many things, but at the same time, it is currently a central focus for both scientific and regulatory attention. We seek to critically unpack this conceptual vagueness. This is particularly called for given recent focus on transparency in much of AI policy. To this end, we construct our analysis of AI Transparency into four facets. Firstly, (1)

In this paper, we study event-based PID control from an optimal stochastic control perspective. The purpose is to better understand what implementation features are critical for achieving good event-based PID performance. For this end, we formulate an LQG control design problem for a double integrator process with an integral disturbance, where the solution is an ideal PID controller. We then cons

We evaluate the efficiency of the maximum likelihood estimator introduced by Aki (1965), using synthetic datasets exhibiting diverse but well defined properties. The deviation of the b-value estimation from its real value is quantified by Monte Carlo simulations as a function of catalogue features and data properties such as the sample size, the magnitude uncertainties distribution, the round-off

Researchers have asked for practical examples of collaborative supply chain initiatives like VMI and how they are designed. Especially cases in other industrial settings than retail are rare. One important question to answer is how well these initiatives are working in other settings and how they could be designed to improve supply chain efficiency. The objective of this paper is to give a descrip

Abstract in UndeterminedA comparison is made of battery charger topologies for electric vehicles. The chargers are all off-board, and capable of active power line conditioning and bi-directional power flow to compensate local utilities during peak power loads. The active power line conditioning capability is important, since an increase of battery chargers based on ordinary diode rectifiers would

In this paper, the transversal diffusion coefficient D of CO2 dissolved molecules through the wall of a hydrated cellulose fiber was approached, from the liquid bulk diffusion coefficient of CO2 dissolved molecules modified by an obstruction factor. The porous network between the cellulose microfibrils of the fiber wall was assumed being saturated with liquid. We retrieved information from previou
