  2. 6. Weighing Animal Lives : A Critical Assessment of Justification and Prioritization in Animal-Rights Theories

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; Carl-Henric Grenholm; Frans W. A. Brom; Per Sundman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Animal rights; justification; prioritization; applied ethics; proper function; justice; rights language; vivisection; rights conflict; Ethics; Etik; Etik; Ethics;

    Abstract : The project underlying this dissertation aims at analyzing three pro-animal-rights theories, evaluating the theories, and outlining an alternative theoretical account of animal rights. The analytical categories are justification and function of animal rights, the definition of the right holder, and the resolution approach to rights conflict. READ MORE

  4. 7. Capacity Control of Residential Heat Pump Heating Systems

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; RISE; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy efficiency; variable-speed; air-source; performance; hydronic heating system; ground-source; heat pump; defrost; optimisation; circulator; capacity control;

    Abstract : Heat pumps used for space and sanitary hot water heating of residential buildings are increasingly popular in northern Europe. As they compete with other heating equipment and in order to limit the environmental impact of their use, it is very important that heat pumps are energy efficient. READ MORE

  5. 8. Integrated Control of Heat Pumps

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; variable speed compressor; superheat; electronic expansion valve; optimisation; performance indication; control; heat pump; energy efficiency;

    Abstract : The purpose of the work presented in this thesis is to investigate the potential and prerequisites for improved energy efficiency of heat pump systems using efficient components and proper methods for optimisation of operation. The background is that several investigations have reported on possibilities for increased energy efficiency of heat pumps if variable-speed capacity control is used instead of conventional on/off control.

  6. 9. Meta - Method for Method Configuration : A Rational Unified Process Case

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; Göran Goldkuhl; Anders Avdic; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Datavetenskap; systems engineering methods; Rational Unified Process; method configuration; method engineering; Configuration Package; Configuration Template; Datavetenskap; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The world of systems engineering methods is changing as rigorous ‘off-the-shelf’ systems engineering methods become more popular. One example of such a systems engineering method is Rational Unified Process. READ MORE

  7. 10. Multi-dimensional approach used for energy and indoor climate evaluation applied to a low-energy building

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; Bahram Moshfegh; Hazim Awbi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Low-energy building; energy; indoor climate; simulation; Lågenergihus; energi; inomhusklimat; simulering; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : The building sector alone accounts for almost 40% of the total energy demand and people spend more than 80% of their time indoors. Reducing energy demand in buildings is essential to the achievement of a sustainable built environment. At the same time, it is important to not deteriorate people’s health, well-being and comfort in buildings. READ MORE
