    Abstract : The history of surgery is nearly as old as the human race. Control of wound infection has always been an essential part of any surgical procedure, and is still an important challenge in hospital operating rooms today. For patients undergoing surgery there is always a risk that they will develop some kind of postoperative complication. READ MORE

  2. 2. Improvement of Thermal Comfort in Buildings through Passive Design

    Author : Marcelino Januário Rodrigues; Byggnadskonstruktion; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Buildings; Sustainability; Energy Efficiency; Passive Design; Orientation; Shading; Ventilation; Materials; Temperatures; Thermal Comfort; Simulations; Retrofitting; Hot Humid Regions.;

    Abstract : In hot humid regions the high outdoor temperature has negative effects on the indoor temperature of buildings that are not designed to cope with the local climate. This leads to discomfort for the occupants. READ MORE

  3. 3. Methodology for the modelling of thermally activated building components in low exergy design

    Author : Dietrich Schmidt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : There is still an obvious and indisputable need for an increase in the efficiency of energy utilisation in buildings. Heating, cooling and lighting appliances in buildings account for more than one third of the world’s primary energy demand and there are great potentials, which can be obtained through better applications of the energy use in buildings.

  4. 4. The sick buidling syndrome

    Author : Tyrrell S. Burt; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This investigation consisted of an intervention study of asingle officebuilding. In the first study, already reported, itwas concluded thatmicrobiological and chemical factors wereunlikely to be responsible forsymptoms of sick buildingsyndrome (SBS) in this building. The focus of theinvestigationtherefore narrowed down to the physical factors. READ MORE

  5. 5. Energy efficiency in shopping malls. Energy use and indoor climate

    Author : Sofia Stensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy use; loads; cooling; Shopping mall; simulation; heating; field measurements;

    Abstract : The purpose of this licentiate thesis is to describe energy use, heating and cooling demands and the relative importance of internal heat loads in shopping malls. It will be a foundation for a future doctorial thesis in which alternative energy efficient HVAC systems for shopping malls will be analysed. READ MORE
