  1. 1. Energy Efficient Renovation Strategies for Swedish and Other European Residential and Office Buildings

    Author : Marcus Gustafsson; Sture Holmberg; Jonn Are Myhren; Chris Bales; Jarek Kurnitski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy efficiency; renovation; low-temperature heating; air heat recovery; district heating; heat pump; Energieffektivitet; renovering; lågtemperaturuppvärmning; värmeåtervinning; fjärrvärme; värmepump; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Energy and Built Environments;

    Abstract : The high energy use in the European building stock is attributable to the large share of old buildings with poor energy performance. Energy renovation of buildings is therefore vital in the work towards energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact in the EU. READ MORE

  2. 2. Energy efficient and economic renovation of residential buildings with low-temperature heating and air heat recovery

    Author : Marcus Gustafsson; Sture Holmberg; Chris Bales; Jonn Are Myhren; Rahmatollah Khodabandeh; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; iNSPiRE;

    Abstract : With the building sector accounting for around 40% of the total energy consumption in the EU, energy efficiency in buildings is and continues to be an important issue. Great progress has been made in reducing the energy consumption in new buildings, but the large stock of existing buildings with poor energy performance is probably an even more crucial area of focus.

  3. 3. Characterization of particulate matter from atmospheric fluidized bed biomass gasifiers

    Author : Eva Gustafsson; Michael Strand; Marcus Öhman; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : biomass gasification; fluidized bed; particulate matter; particle morphology; particle elementary composition; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

    Abstract : Through biomass gasification, biomass can be converted at high temperature to a product gas rich in carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and methane. After cleaning and upgrading, the product gas can be converted to biofuels such as hydrogen; methanol; dimethyl ether; and synthetic diesel, gasoline, and natural gas. READ MORE

  4. 4. Degenerate Geometries, Supersymmetry and Duality

    Author : Henrik Gustafsson; Marcus Grisary; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; fysik;

    Abstract : String theory is a theory attempting to unify gravity with the electro-weak and strong interactions so successfully described by Quantum Field Theory. The implications of String Theory is not fully understood since it is still not a complete theory. READ MORE

  5. 5. A fair score? : group independent validity arguments for college admission tests

    Author : Marcus Strömbäck Hjärne; Ewa Rolfsman; Christina Wikström; Per-Erik Lyrén; Jan-Eric Gustafsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Fairness; Validity; Immigration; Dyslexia; Special populations; SweSAT; didactics of educational measurement; beteendevetenskapliga mätningar;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate fair use of test scores for admission to higher education. In this thesis, fairness is narrowed down to an instrumental definition relating to a fair interpretation of test scores. The focus is on the use of the Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test (SweSAT) for admission decisions. READ MORE
