The aim of the thesis is to develop a model, based on well known physical and empirical formulas, to simulate the heat load on a rink of artificially frozen ice. A comparison of the results from this model and the results from other methods to determine heat load of the rink is made. The model calculates the heat load from convection, long wave radiation from the air temperature and from the sky t

Palliativt Utvecklingscentrum är en del av Lunds universitet och Region Skåne. Vi arbetar med forskning, utveckling och utbildning inom palliativ vård med det övergripande målet att vården av människor i livets slutskede ska ha högsta möjliga prioritet och kvalitet. Detta oavsett sjukdom och var man vårdas.The Institute for Palliative Care is part of Lund University and Region Skåne. We work with research, development and education in palliative care. The overall goal being that the care of people at the end of life should have the highest possible priority and quality, regardless of the type of illness and where the person is cared for.
In the food & beverage, biotech and pharma industry the use of ultrafiltration to recover fermentation broth is the state-of-the-art. These Ultrafiltration systems consist commonly of three stages: (1) pre-concentration stage, (2) diafiltration, and (3) final concentration. The process mode can be either batch or continuous. In the batch processes for all stages of the concentration the sam

The purpose of this work is to provide statistical series on energy consumption in Portugal in 1856-2006. Its main innovation is the inclusion of traditional sources along with modern ones.
This paper addresses the optimization of structural health monitoring(SHM) before its implementation on the basis of its Value of Information (VoI). The approach for the quantification of the value of SHM builds upon a service life cost assessment and generic structural performance model in conjunction with the observation, i.e. monitoring, of deterioration increments. The structural performance i
When Sweden adopted its carbon tax in 1990, it was as one of the first of its kind worldwide. While the adoption of the tax has been attributed to its inclusion in the Swedish tax reform, undoubtedly playing a crucial role, the reform does not in itself explain how the Swedish carbon tax came about or why it became part of the reform package in the first place. In this article, we present a case s
This paper presents a novel approach to understanding violence in service encounters through a sociological lens, focusing specifically on micro-interactional violence. Traditionally, research on violence has focused on structural aspects, linking it to the capitalist system or viewing it as symbolic violence (Gordon & Zainuddin, 2020; Varman, 2010). This study, however, shifts the focus to th
Desalination can be a cost-effective way to produce fresh water and possibly electricity. The Gaza Strip has had a complex hydro-political situation for many years. Gaza is bordered by the Mediterranean sea in the west, by Israel in the north and east and by Egypt in the south. Water and electricity consumption in the Gaza Strip is expected to increase in the future due to the increasing in popula
Ambitions and ClarificationsThe book takes its point of departure in the "intimate visions of society" that are significant of contemporary social life. This concept refers to the tendency to apprehend good social relations as personal, close and warm, while bad relations correspondingly are perceived as impersonal, cold, distant and alienated. Exemplary categories, such as closeness, warmth, comm
Innate immunity is important for the integrity of the host against potentially invasive pathogenic microorganisms in the environment. Antibiotic peptides with broad antimicrobial activity are part of the innate immune system. We investigated the presence of the cathelicidin, human cationic antimicrobial protein (hCAP-18), in the male reproductive system. We found strong expression of the hCAP-18 g
Idag utförs en betydande del av den ledande humanistiska och teologiska forskningen i vetenskapliga miljöer vid sidan om traditionella ämnesdisciplinära och organisatoriska indelningar. HT-fakulteterna har därför infört en satsning på forskningsplattformar för att sådana gränsöverskridande forskningsmiljöer ska ges förutsättningar att bygga upp och utveckla långsiktiga interdisciplinära samarbetenToday a large amount of research within the humanities and theology is conducted in academic environments outside of traditional disciplinary and organisational units. The Joint Faculties of Humanities and Theology are promoting the establishing and development of long-term interdisciplinary collaborations by giving monetary support to five research platforms chosen by an external expert jury.
