The main goal for year 2050 is to reduce energy usage by 50 %. This is meant to be achieved through the use of energy efficient solutions. Operation and maintenance of installations and buildings are main factors in achieving this goal. The building must be viewed from a holistic perspective throughout the process. With regards of both optimization of installations and improvements of the construc

Communities living in areas of extraction often find ways to overcome or resist destructive legacies, but researchers lack a deep understanding of the mechanisms by which this is done. This article helps to address this gap by employing the theoretical framework of a sacrifice zone to a case study of Yellowknife, Canada and nearby mining projects. By analyzing a combination of interview and site v

The dendritic cell (DC) lineage encompasses a diverse population of cells with unique subtype-specific functions. In peripheral blood, four DC subsets have been identified based on their distinct expression of CD1c, CD141, CD16, and CD123, and these subpopulations exhibit functional properties in immune responses. However, their respective roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, are unclear.

Denna rapport är en brandteknisk riskvärdering på njur- och transplantationsavdelningen, avdelning 1, samt dialysavdelningen, avdelning 2, på plan 4 i byggnad 33, på Skånes universitetssjukhus i Malmö, med avseende personsäkerheten. Arbetet med att utvärdera personsäkerheten för patienter och personal på de två avdelningarna inleddes med ett platsbesök där viktig information samlades in. På SUS iThis report is an evaluation of the fire safety level at a small division of Skåne University hospital in Malmö. The report is a part of the course Fire safety evaluation at the division of Fire Safety Engineering Lund University. The purpose of the report was to use previous knowledge in fire safety to evaluate the evacuation possibilities at the hospital. The project started with an on-site visi

Smart cities are enthusiastically promoted around the world by industry and governments alike as a desirable means to achieve urban sustainability. This chapter contributes empirical evidence on how projects reflecting qualities of a Smart City 2.0 model can play out on the ground. It examines two Japanese smart cities addressing the interconnected challenges of an ageing society and preventative

The thesis consists of a description of the waste management in Sweden today, related to a case study at IKEA’s warehouses in Älmhult. Waste is globally one of the most important environmental challenges. Waste management in Sweden has developed a lot during the past years and is now standing in front of the next big challenge: to reach higher up in the waste hierarchy. By studying the academic li

Frequent wildfires increasingly impact tourist populations, yet there is a shortage of evidence-based, human-centered tools for wildfire risk reduction tailored to these areas. Most current tools focus primarily on assessing and reducing physical vulnerabilities, overlooking human aspects. While some community wildfire management guidelines exist, actionable strategies for disaster managers to add

EQUITY: The Center Of Inequality Awareness offers an alternative viewpoint of the Naturum. It'sa way of learning about your surroundings through engaging activities that center on inequity. EQUITY, which is situated next to one of Sweden's greatest lime quarry, feels strongly about its cause, which is the inequality the workers had compared to investors. I was inspired by the uneven and n

Bygg- och fastighetssektorn stod år 2020 för ungefär en tredjedel av Sveriges totala energianvändning, där energianvändningen främst består av energi för uppvärmning. Energibesparingar på en byggnads uppvärmningsenergi kan göras med hjälp av tekniska åtgärder och genom förändring av brukarvanor. Det finns i dagsläget ett gap mellan den förväntade och faktiska energianvändningen i byggnader. Detta The aim of this report is to study occupants’ behavior to investigate the impact occupants’ behaviors, with an extra focus on different window opening behaviors, has on the total annual energy use in an apartment building. Other behaviors that are included in the study are use of household electricity, hot water use, and indoor temperature. The study will be performed as a literature study combine
