2. 1. Stakeholder Participation in Property Development

   Author : Carlos Martínez-Ávila; Avdelningen för Byggproduktion; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stakeholder; Participation; property development; Sustainable development;

   Abstract : The traditional representation of urban property as a technical exercise of market analysis, valuation and investment appraisal fails to link urban property development to the general notions of sustainable development and thus the connection to environmental, economic and social aspects of sustainable urban development. Knowledge of the social processes in the production and use of the built environment, specifically in land and property development processes, is vital to understand the complexity of urban development and thus to assist the management of urban development processes.

5. 3. A Real Property Register to Support the Property and Credit Market in Uganda

   Author : Lilian Mono Wabineno Oryema; Peter Ekbäck; Hans Mattsson; Moses Musinguzi; Eva Johnson Liedholm; Jaap Zevenbergen; KTH; []
   Keywords : Property Rights; Real Property Register; Property Market; Credit Market; Uganda; Rättigheter; Fastighetsregister; Fastighetsmarknad; Kreditmarknad; Uganda.; Real Estate and Construction Management; Fastigheter och byggande;

   Abstract : An efficient property and credit market can be used by a government of a country to empower its citizens to achieve sustainable development. To improve the property and credit market government needs to ensure that its land records contain information that is beneficial to the actors in both the property and credit market. READ MORE

6. 4. Development of voyage optimization algorithms for sustainable shipping and their impact to ship design

   Author : Helong Wang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Expected time of arrival ETA ; Ship safety; Sustainable shipping; Metocean forecast; Voyage optimization algorithms.; Dijkstra’s algorithm; Genetic algorithm; Energy efficiency;

   Abstract : The environmental impacts from shipping and the societal challenges of human and property losses caused by ship accidents are pressuring the shipping industry to improve its energy efficiency and enhance ship safety. Voyage optimization is such an effective measure that has been widely adopted in today’s shipping market. READ MORE

7. 5. Life Cycle Energy Optimisation: A multidisciplinary engineering design optimisation framework for sustainable vehicle development

   Author : Hamza Bouchouireb; Ciarán J. O'Reilly; Peter Göransson; Rupert J. Baumgartner; José Potting; Mario Hirz; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Life cycle energy optimisation; Multidisciplinary optimisation; Integrative design; Sustainable vehicle design; Functional conflicts; Vehicle aerodynamics; Battery energy storage systems; Robust design; Uncertainty propagation; Livscykelenergi; Fordonsdesign; Optimering; Tvär-funktionella konflikter; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

   Abstract : This thesis explores how the systemic-level environmental footprint of light-duty vehicles could be reduced through integrative design using the Life Cycle Energy Optimisation (LCEO) methodology. This methodology aims at finding a design solution that uses a minimum amount of cumulative energy demand over the different phases of the vehicle's life cycle; while complying with a set of functional constraints, thereby avoiding any sub-optimal energy demand shifts between the vehicle's different life cycle phases.
