2. 1. Computational and Visual Tools for Geospatial Multi-Criteria Decision-Making

   Author : Goran Milutinovic; Stefan Seipel; Ulla Ahonen-Jonnarth; S. Anders Brandt; Gennady Andrienko; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geographic information systems; multi-criteria decision-making; interactive visualization; even swaps; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; Intelligent industri; Intelligent Industry;

   Abstract : Geospatial multi-criteria decision-making usually concerns quasi-continuous choice models, with the number of alternatives constrained only by the limits of the used representation model. This sets high demands on the decision-making methods used in the context. READ MORE

4. 2. Phase Equilibrium-aided Design of Phase Change Materials from Blends : For Thermal Energy Storage

   Author : Saman Nimali Gunasekara; Viktoria Martin; Justin NingWei Chiu; Torsten Fransson; Ana Ines Fernandez; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal energy storage TES ; phase change material PCM ; phase diagram; congruent melting; compound; solid solution; eutectic; peritectic; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Climate change is no longer imminent but eminent. To combat climate change, effective, efficient and smart energy use is imperative. Thermal energy storage (TES) with phase change materials (PCMs) is one attractive choice to realize this. READ MORE

5. 3. Conditions for resource-efficient production of biofuels for transport in Sweden

   Author : Carolina Ersson; Mats Eklund; Jonas Ammenberg; Mikael Lantz; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Transportation has continued to increase worldwide and fossil-fuel dependency is strong which leads to a number of problems, e.g. increased emissions of green-house gases (GHG) and risks related to energy security. Biofuels have until now been one of the few renewable alternatives which have been able to replace fossil fuels on a large scale. READ MORE

6. 4. The Responsible Business Person : Studies of business education for sustainability

   Author : Pernilla Andersson; Magnus Boström; Jenny Gunnarsson-Payne; Johan Öhman; Malin Ideland; Södertörns högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; education; sustainable development; responsibility; environment; business; curriculum; teaching; discourse analysis; poststructuralism; pedagogy; classroom; Environmental Studies; Miljövetenskapliga studier;

   Abstract : Calls for the inclusion of sustainable development in the business curriculum have increased significantly in the wake of the financial crisis and increased concerns around climate change. This has led to the appearance of new initiatives and the development of new teaching approaches. READ MORE

7. 5. Tools for Control System Design : Stratification of Matrix Pairs and Periodic Riccati Differential Equation Solvers

   Author : Stefan Johansson; Bo Kågström; Erik Elmroth; Paul Van Dooren; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; control system design; stratification; controllability; observability; matrix pair; canonical forms; linear quadratic regulator; periodic systems; periodic Riccati differential equation; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Numerical Analysis; numerisk analys;

   Abstract : Modern control theory is today an interdisciplinary area of research. Just as much as this can be problematic, it also provides a rich research environment where practice and theory meet. This Thesis is conducted in the borderline between computing science (numerical analysis) and applied control theory. READ MORE
