  1. 1. Efficiency of building related pump and fan operation - Application and system solutions

    Author : Caroline S Markusson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; motor drive; control-on-demand; hydronic systems; air systems; electric motor; variable speed; decentralized systems; pump; electric energy; fan; local systems; efficiency;

    Abstract : The electric energy use in Swedish non-industrial buildings is 71 TWh per year out of which 30 TWh per year is used for the operation of technical systems. A significant part of those 30 TWh/year is used for pump and fan operation. The Swedish parliament decided in 2009 on a national energy and climate plan. READ MORE

  2. 2. Sustainable Arsenic Mitigation A Strategy for Scaling-up Safe Water Access : A Strategy for Scaling-up Safe Water Access

    Author : Mohammed Hossain; Prosun Bhattacharya; Marinus Eric Donselaar; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bangladesh; drinking water; arsenic mitigation; local tubewell driller; sediment color tool; low-manganese; Intermediate Deep aquifer; Land and Water Resources Engineering; Mark- och vattenteknik;

    Abstract : In rural Bangladesh, the drinking water supply is mostly dependent upon manually operated hand pumped tubewells, installed by the local community. The presence of natural arsenic (As) in groundwater and its wide scale occurrence has drastically reduced the safe water access across the country and put tens of millions of people under health risk.

  3. 3. Interaction and Uncertainty-Aware Motion Planning for Autonomous Vehicles Using Model Predictive Control

    Author : Jian Zhou; Erik Frisk; Björn Olofsson; Jonas Fredriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Motion planning plays a significant role in enabling advances of autonomous vehicles in saving lives and improving traffic efficiency. In a predictive motion-planning strategy, the ego vehicle predicts the motion of surrounding vehicles and uses these predictions to plan collision-free reference trajectories. READ MORE

  4. 4. Integration of remote sensing and ancillary data for geographical analysis and risk assessment of forest regeneration failures

    Author : Maj-Liz Nordberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The spatial distribution and size of forest regeneration areas are the basis for an analysis of where climatically unfavourable sites for forest regeneration are likely to occur if the area is clear felled. Knowledge about thermal variations is of interest in forestry, as avoidance of surface temperature extremes is important to regeneration success. READ MORE

  5. 5. A multidisciplinary approach: geophysics, hydrochemistry and hydrometeorology for addressing water security in semiarid alluvial fans

    Author : Andres Gonzales; Teknisk geologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geophysical methods; Hydrochemistry; Hydrometeorology; Bolivia; Alluvial fan;

    Abstract : Water security offers to the local population an adequate quality and quantity of water for health, economy, livelihoods and ecosystems. Hence, achieving basic levels of water security should be a priority in areas where access to fresh water is scarce. READ MORE
