This project aims to design a radial inflow microturbine that will be part of a system to generate both heat and electricity. Considering the specific power and the mass flow rates involved with the system, a radial inflow turbine was chosen. This type of turbine provides much larger power density in a single stage compared to the other types.
Increase of urbanization and climate change are one of the factors that have been highlighted to influence the change of urban runoff hydrograph. This is resulting in an increase in peak flow within an urban watershed. Downstream flooding is the main problem that arises. To solve this, the sustainable urban drainage system techniques are adopted for reducing peak flow and increase baseflow. This t
I denna examensarbetesrapport beskrivs utvecklingen av en dold och hållbar produkt för ström och signalöverföring till skjutdörrars rörliga dörrblad. Examensarbetet har genomförts i samarbete med Assa Abloy Entrance Systems, med målet att möjliggöra användningen av tillbehör som smarta glas, skärmar integrerade i dörrglaset, elektriska lås och sensorer monterade på dörrbladen hos deras skjutdörrarThis master’s thesis report describes the product development process of a durable and concealed product for transferring power and signals to the moving door leafs of sliding doors. The thesis has been conducted in collaboration with Assa Abloy Entrance Systems, with the goal of enabling the use of accessories such as privacy e-glass, screens integrated in the glass, electric locks and sensors mo
To mitigate greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels in conventional transportation—including vehicles, ships, and aircraft—a wide range of alternative energy sources have been explored, such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), methanol, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), biomass, solar energy, hydrogen, fuel cells, and batteries. Among these, battery electric propulsion syst
To reduce reliance on energy-intensive, chemically synthesised nitrogen sources in microbial cultivation, we investigated the integration of the nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii into a bioconversion process with the recombinant yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Our objective was to develop a more sustainable approach by utilising biological nitrogen fixation to supply ammonium direct
100 000 elderly fall each year, costing the healthcare system up to 750 million SEK. Beyond the financial part, these accidents could lead to serious injuries such as head trauma or hip replacements, and in the worst case, even death. This project aims to find a preventive technique that will make life easier for the elderly while saving money and resources for society. The aim is to gather data
Denna uppsats handlar om användning av artificiell intelligens i skol- och utbildningsmiljö, samt de potentiella utmaningar och hinder som finns för artikel 5(1)(a) AI förordningen, att försäkra uppfyllandet av barns rätt till tanke- och samvetsfrihet, i artikel 14 Barnkonventionen. De aktuella frågeställningarna i denna uppsats är: Hur försäkrar artikel 5(1)(a) AI förordningen uppfyllandet av baThis thesis investigates the use of AI within the educational environment, specifically the school environment, and the potential challenges and barriers for article 5(1)(a) AI Act, to ensure the realization of the children’s right to freedom of thought and conscience, under article 14 UNCRC. The research questions are: How does article 5(1)(a) AI Act ensure the realization of the children’s righ
The number and complexity of modern software systems have increased substantially since their inception. This unrelenting growth is making manual code review more difficult year by year, and the gap between the amount of code and security verification creates a critical need for automated tools that can assist developers in detecting vulnerabilities. A possible solution to this is large language m
Long-term university–industry strategic partnerships require continuous coordination across multiple activities, focus areas, roles, and governance levels. Using the Tetra Pak–Lund University (TP–LU) partnership as the empirical setting, this thesis aims to design a strategic partnership dashboard for governance support and to develop design-oriented knowledge for shared dashboard use in similar l
This thesis investigates how existing urban environments can be adapted to strengthen climate resilience and improve everyday access to urban rest within dense cities. Urban rest is understood as restorative conditions within the everyday urban environment, where opportunities for pause, recovery, and social interaction can occur across both public and semi-private spaces. The thesis identifies an
Preterm infants benefit from combined supplementation of arachidonic acid (ARA), docosahex-aenoic acid (DHA) and choline, but ARA/DHA-rich oils are highly susceptible to lipid oxida-tion. This project aimed to develop and evaluate choline-enriched DHA/ARA oil-in-water emulsions with suitable physical and oxidative stability. Emulsions were prepared by high-pressure homogenization using two AquaCel
This thesis investigates the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methods to improve carbon footprint estimation for Integrated Circuit (IC) components in automotive Cost Engineering (CE). The work addresses challenges faced by electrical cost engineers at Volvo Cars: the manual, time-consuming process of collecting component specifications, and estimating Carbon D
This thesis aims to develop and evaluate a fast design and optimisation workflow for corrugated tubes used in tubular heat exchangers by combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations and machine learning. A steady-state Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model was established to simplify the simulation process and reduce computational time. Based on the selected CFD setup, a CFD dat
In this episode, we speak to Professor David Freestone, George Washington University School of Law, about the nexus between climate change and the ocean in light of the recent Advisory Opinion on Climate Change and International Law from the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, and what it means for shipping decarbonization.
This thesis examines Europeana, the European Union's digital cultural heritage platform. The thesis evaluates whether and how Europeana's editorial choices produce particular constructions of European identity, and what patterns of inclusion and absence emerge from those findings. Through qualitative content analysis of a sample of ten exhibitions, the research maps the themes and framing
Hans Dam Christensen I dag ved jeg sådan nogenlunde, hvad udtrykket “folkhemmet” betyder. Tror jeg. Jeg har endda læst Per Albin Hanssons Folkhemstalet fra 1928. I talen anvendes udtrykket “det goda medborgarhemmet” oftere, men det fængede åbenbart ikke på samme måde. Når jeg er på Nordiska Museet i dag, besøger jeg museets “folkhem”-lejlighed. Samme museum fortæller mig også, at “folkhemmet” kan
