Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen innehåller sju artiklar. Här presenteras ett nytt koncept för att beskriva hur fukt transporteras i porösa material. Detta bygger på införandet av en äkta flödespotential, Kirchhoff's potential. Betraktelsesättet täcker hela processen från mätning av materialdata till numerisk beräkning av fukttransport. Modeller för beräkning av fuktinträngning vid stegäThe work presented in this thesis is focused on the development of the new concept to describe isothermal moisture transport using Kirchhoff potentials. The first four papers deal with moisture transport in porous media using Kirchhoff potentials. The last three papers deal with wood. Here the theory is extended to the case of anisotropic moisture transport. The seven papers have the following con

In recent years evidence has emerged that the amount of isoprene emitted from a leaf is affected by the CO2 growth environment. Many - though not all - laboratory experiments indicate that emissions increase significantly at below-ambient CO2 concentrations and decrease when concentrations are raised to above-ambient. A small number of process-based leaf isoprene emission models can reproduce this

As the world continues to see an increase in carbon dioxide emissions, actions aiming towards reducing man's negative impact on the environment are paramount. To be able to compete with the air travel industry, the Swedish Transport Administration suggests a vast expansion of the existing railway system. This includes the construction of high speed railroads connecting the largest urban areas

The construction sector is one of the biggest contributors to global CO2 emissions and buildings account for a significant part of the energy use in Sweden. Population growth in combination with economic development is putting more pressure on the environment, resulting in escalating consumption trends and larger quantities of raw material extraction. Policies and directives are promoting a circul

In many countries, GMO policy-making has been characterised with a lot of controversy, participation and trust being the most pressing issues. The ongoing Ghanaian GMO policy-making is not spared of the controversy. The GMO Bill which was introduced in the Ghanaian Parliament in 2013 remained unpassed amid accusations and counter-accusations between government-led groups and civil society-led anti

During the Age of Mass Migration, 30 million Europeans left their home countries and emigrated to the United States. Sweden had one of the highest out-migration rates of the era. Between 1860 to 1920, around 1.3 million people–a quarter of the population–left Sweden to seek opportunity in the United States. This essay delves into one particular aspect of this historic migration episode. I study t

The aim of this project was to develop a method for simulating the movement of a fluid in a fuel tank of a truck that is in motion. The pressure that is built up on the tank walls was also calculated. Once the method was developed it could be used for analyzing and understanding the phenomenon that is sloshing. The method developed cover all parts of the process, from start to finish. The first

A growing body of evidence suggests that speech recognition is facilitated by rapid activation of possible lexical candidates and subsequent competition and selection. An event-related potential (ERP) component 136-204 ms after word onset, the pre-activation negativity (PrAN), correlates with lexical competition. Further, the increased negativity for low lexical competition correlates with increas

Den 1 juni 2018 infördes ett frivillighetsrekvisit i den svenska våldtäktsbe-stämmelsen i 6 kap 1 § BrB. Det nya rekvisitet innebär att avsaknad av ömse-sidig frivillighet ligger till grund för straffansvar. Målsägandens agerande och hur personen uttryckt frivillighet är av central betydelse för bedömningen. I min uppsats har jag undersökt vilka gränser målsägandens frivillighet ställs inför när dOn June 1, 2018, a voluntariness requirement was introduced in the Swedish rape provision in Chapter 6, Section 1 of the Swedish Penal Code (BrB). The new requirement implies that the absence of mutual voluntariness forms the basis for criminal liability. The actions of the victim and how their expressed voluntariness is assessed are of central importance in the evaluation. In my essay, I have exa

The current healthcare system in Sweden suffers from major problems when it comes cost-efficiency and delivery of healthcare services. Unsustainable increase in healthcare cost over the past few decades has led to that Government funding is no longer keeping pace with increasing demand and complexity. There a several ways to address this issue, one is to implement a new healthcare delivery model w

The Danes’ have the highest municipal waste generation per capita in the European Union and it is estimated that 40% of residual waste is biowaste. Fortunately, it is possible to address environmental pressures and counteract resource loss from incineration by the process of bio-gasification of collected biowaste in Denmark. However, despite efforts to reduce barriers of convenience and accessibil

Equal capacity in the activities of a production line is of great importance when a good material flow is desired. This is one of the basic ideas of the Lean philosophy, a mindset every modern company strives to follow. In a production with unequal capacity, the company might have to build up inventory to be able to meet the costumer demand. Inventory is a recognized waste in a production and a co

Why have I decided to put the final touches on this document now, almost six years after I left the Lund University School of Industrial Design? In retrospect, with six years of experience as an industrial designer, the focus for my master’s thesis would have been something entirely different, but this document is an interesting snapshot of my thoughts at the half way point between when the doors

Stress and mental illness are growing and are the leading causes to sickness and sick relief from work. A lot of the stress is due to psychosocial factors, i.e. how the individual is shaped by and herself shapes the environment (the context she is currently in) through social norms. Norms which are culturally contingent and shaped with the capitalistic system. Capitalism, with its built in need fo

The development and manufacturing process for Integrated Circuits (ICs) has become complex and globally distributed. System integrators use a mix of custom made logic with third-party Intellectual Property (IP) blocks, untrusted software tools, and external actors for manufacturing, post-production test, and validation. The many untrusted actors involved throughout the IC’s lifetime become a secur

The Swedish public library was founded in the years when the society in Sweden went from being a society of agriculture to industrialism. Modernism was sweeping over the country, everything was possible, which influenced the new society that was built. Now Sweden was going to be a true democracy with responsible and empathic citizens. One of the main tools in this process was to educate people, to
