  1. 1. Dynamics of Energy Systems - Methods of analysing technology change

    Author : Lena Neij; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy research; evaluation; market transformation; PV modules; wind power; experience curves; air-distribution; lighting; vintage models; sustainable energy; renewable energy; energy efficiency; Energy; energy system; Energiforskning; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp;

    Abstract : Technology change will have a central role in achieving a sustainable energy system. This calls for methods of analysing the dynamics of energy systems in view of technology change and policy instruments for effecting and accelerating technology change. In this thesis, such methods have been developed, applied, and assessed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Do lighting control and user interface design matter to occupant behaviour? The case of optimal lighting use in non-residential buildings

    Author : Pimkamol Mattsson; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; characteristic; design; energy reduction; energy-saving behaviour; lighting control; light switch; lighting use; non-residential building; perception; user interface;

    Abstract : The lowering of energy use from artificial lighting in buildings is vital to reaching the goal of reducing CO2 emissions. Hence, changes in individuals’ behaviours regarding lighting use have received increased attention. Feedback on energy use has often been used to change individuals’ behaviour. READ MORE

  3. 3. Energy Savings by Using Daylight for Basic Urban Shapes : With a Case Study of Three Different Street Types

    Author : Bengt Sundborg; Tigran Haas; Jan Ejhed; Ulf Ranhagen; Barbara Matusiak; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; daylight; energy; climate; urban design principles; urban pattern; street grid; Arkitektur; Architecture;

    Abstract : During winter the sun is in short supply. But research at KTH shows that solar radiation can be facilitated while energy consumption for lighting is reduced. This provided that the buildings are appropriately designed. But, unfortunately, the sunlight is often not taken into account and the results are the opposite. READ MORE

  4. 4. Post-Deleuzian Investigations of U.S. Avant-Garde Film, 1943–81

    Author : Atene Mendelyte; Filmvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; U.S. avant-garde film; Gilles Deleuze; film-philosophy; sobjective image; metaphysics of technique; conceptual cartography of film-worlds; transcendental empiricism; film semiotics; postmodernism;

    Abstract : The aim of this dissertation is to investigate a number of U.S. avant-garde films using Deleuzian film-philosophy in order to describe their thought. I develop the taxonomy of cinematic images created by the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze by introducing a new type of image. READ MORE

  5. 5. Physical properties of chromospheric features : Plage, peacock jets, and calibrating it all

    Author : Alexander G. M. Pietrow; Dan Kiselman; Jaime de la Cruz Rodríguez; Malcolm Druett; Gianna Cauzzi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sun; chromosphere; plage; jets; imaging; spectropolarimetry; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : The chromosphere is a complex and dynamic layer of the solar atmosphere, largely dominated by the local magnetic field configuration. It acts as an important interface between the photosphere below it and the hot corona above. However, studying this layer is not straightforward, as it is largely transparent in optical wavelengths.
