    Abstract : The material supply to build renewable energy conversion systems needs to be considered from both a cost and an energy security perspective. For Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells the use of indium in the absorber layer is most problematic. READ MORE

  5. 5. Durability of timber members : Moisture conditions and service life assessment of bridge detailing

    Author : Jonas Niklewski; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : wood; spruce; moisture; durability; decay; service life; detailing; model;

    Abstract : The longevity of timber structures in exposed outdoor environments is often perceived to be unreliable as compared with that of concrete and steel structures. This situation is exacerbated to some extent by the fact that the European commission for standardization (CEN) currently provides no quantitative method for service life assessment of timber structures.
