  1. 21. Environmental Assessment of Buildings and the influence on architectural design

    Author : Marita Wallhagen; Göran Finnveden; Mauritz Glaumann; Tove Malmqvist; Ole Jörgen Hanssen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; green building; sustainable building; environmental assessment; assessment tool; architectural design; CO2 Carbondioxide ; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis examines environmental assessment tools for buildings. This is done by investigating, analysing, comparing and testing how different environmental assessment tools measure the environmental performance of buildings and examining the consequences this may have on architectural design.

  2. 22. Enhancing the Treatment of Systems Integration in Long-term Energy Models

    Author : Manuel Welsch; Mark Howells; Erik Ahlgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Power system models; Energy system models; Resource system models; Smart Grids; Operating reserve; Biofuels; Sub-Saharan Africa; Ireland; Mauritius; ; kraftsystemmodeller; energisystemmodeller; resursmodeller; smarta elnät; operativ reservkapacitet; biobränslen; Afrika söder om Sahara; Irland; Mauritius; ; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : Securing access to affordable energy services is of central importance to our societies. To do this sustainably, energy systems design should be – amongst other things – environmentally compliant and reconcile with the integrated management of potentially limiting resources. READ MORE

  3. 23. Natural and social dimensions of forest carbon accounting

    Author : Wilhelm Dubber; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Forest carbon fluxes; REDD ; boreal forest; LPJ-GUESS; BIOME-BGC; remote sensing;

    Abstract : Global forests store large amounts of carbon both in living biomass and in the soil. The ability of forests to counteract climate change by acting as carbon sinks have been recognized in global climate politics, such as the 2015 Paris agreement which calls for national commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

  4. 24. The palaeolimnological record of regime shifts in lakes in response to climate change

    Author : Linda Randsalu Wendrup; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; palaeolimnology; regime shifts; thresholds; alternative stable states; climate change; ecosystem dynamics; diatoms; hydrocarbons; monitoring; lake sediments; shallow lakes; 8.2 ka event;

    Abstract : Regime shifts in lake ecosystems can occur in response to both abrupt and continuous climate change, and the imprints they leave in palaeolimnological records allow us to investigate and better understand patterns and processes governing ecological changes on geological time scales. This thesis aims at investigating palaeolimnological records of regime shifts in lakes during the Holocene to explore how lake ecosystems responded to climate changes and anthropogenic activities and to identify thresholds or tipping points that produced regime shifts.

  5. 25. Aging sensitive battery control

    Author : Malin Andersson; Mikael Johansson; Matteo Corno; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lithium-ion battery; battery control; parameter identification; equivalent circuit model; Doyle-Fuller-Newman model; sensitivity analysis; optimal experiment design; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The battery is a component with significant impact on both the cost and environmental footprint of a full electric vehicle (EV). Consequently, there is a strong motivation to maximize its degree of utilization. Usage limits are enforced by the battery management system (BMS) to ensure safe operation and limit battery degradation. READ MORE
