  2. 1. LCC Applications for Bridges and Integration with BMS

    Author : Mohammed Safi; Håkan Sundquist; Raid Karoumi; Milan Veljkovic; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bridge; Management; life-Cycle Costing; LCC; Bridge Management System; SRA - Transport; SRA - Transport; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur;

    Abstract : Bridges are vital links in many transport networks and represent a big capital investment for both governments and taxpayers. They have to be managed in a way that ensures society's needs are optimally met. In many countries, bridges are mainly managed using bridge management systems (BMSs). READ MORE

  4. 2. Modelling Life Cycle Cost for Indoor Climate Systems

    Author : Dennis Johansson; Institutionen för bygg- och miljöteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVAC; life cycle cost; energy; Energy research; Energiforskning; Byggnadsteknik; Building construction; indoor climate system; ventilation; maintenance; LCC;

    Abstract : The indoor climate system, which serves a building with a proper indoor air quality and thermal comfort, has been predominantly designed based on the initial cost. A life cycle approach could improve both the economic and environmental performance since the energy use could decrease. READ MORE

  5. 3. A systematic approach for major renovation of residential buildings

    Abstract : In Sweden, buildings are responsible for about 40 % of total energy use and about 10 % of total CO2 emissions Today more than 60 % of existing Swedish residential buildings are over 40 years old and are in need of major renovation. In addition, 15 % of all multi-family buildings and 27 % of all single-family houses were built before 1945. READ MORE

  6. 4. Stainless Steel Corrugated Web Girders for Composite Road Bridges: Concept Evaluation and Flange Buckling Resistance

    Author : Fatima Hlal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Investment cost; Genetic algorithm; Duplex stainless steel; LCC; Corrugated web; Flange buckling resistance; Optimization; Composite bridges; LCA; Road bridges;

    Abstract : Achieving a sustainable bridge design requires careful consideration of economic viability and environmental impact over the entire lifespan of the structure. While stainless steel is recognized for its excellent life cycle performance, its high cost prevents it from being used to a larger extent in bridges. READ MORE

  7. 5. Utilization of local bioresources for transport fuels - System analysis for decision support

    Author : Muhammad Arfan; Ola Eriksson; Jonas Ammenberg; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; System analysis; local bioresources; transportation fuels; LCA; LCC; geography of transitions; Systemanalys; Lokala resurser; drivmedel; LCA; LCC; geografi och om-ställning;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a comprehensive system analysis of the utilization of biowaste and forest industry residues to produce transportation fuels. It explores various aspects such as the constraints to the production system’s value chain development, the utilization of the geographical proximity of biofuel technology innovation system components, environmental impacts, and economic costs.
