Barn i svenska förskolor utsätts för höga ljudnivåer som kan orsaka hörselskador och röstrelaterade problem bland både lärare och elever. Detta på grund av att de behöver höja rösten för att göra sig hörda i en bullrig miljö. På grund av detta är det av intresse att på något sätt kunna förutse ljudmiljön i just förskolor. Detta kan exempelvis göras genom att falta binaurala inspelningar av förskolChildren in Swedish preschools are exposed to high noise levels that can cause hearing damage or voice related problems among both teachers and students, this since they have to raise their voice in order to make themselves heard in a noisy environment. Because of this it is of interest to be able to predict the sound environment in preschools. A way to do this is through convolving binaural recor

In a world with finite resources and growing concerns for the environment the importance and interest in recycling grows larger. This has led the Volvo Trucks Corporation to u
Fjärrvärme har en betydande roll i det svenska energisystemet där många är beroende av att systemet ska fungera optimalt. Trots den generellt höga leveranssäkerheten i dagens system är oplanerade leveransavbrott är något som sker tidvis. I Sverige började många fjärrvärmenät byggas ut i mitten av 1900-talet och mängden skador i äldre ledningar förväntas öka med tiden. Att ersätta gamla ledningar iDistrict heating plays a significant role in the Swedish energysystem where many are dependent on the district heating working optimally. The system in general has a high security of supply, but unplanned interuptions in the supply do ocasionally occur. Many of the district heating networks in Sweden began construction in the middle of the last century and some of the old pipes are expected to see
The purpose of this essay is to examine kitsch in high culture and Jeff Koons’ and Thomas Kinkade’s relationship to kitsch in their art and artistry and how this relationship affects their status as artists. The study is a comparative analysis based on institutional and sociocultural theory. Tools from Pierre Bourdieu’s study of fields are used methodologically to examine the artists positions in
When installing multiple security cameras the cable management can be a struggle. Historically cameras need one cable for power and one for communication, however, advancements in power over ethernet have reduced the number of cables down to one. Installations can still prove difficult and costly as they have to be done by professionals, especially when setting up a large number of cameras. Once t

We are living on the edge! The edge of the built and natural environment, the edge of water and land and the edge of times... We live with the notion that we are not part of nature, but above it. We view nature as a conglomeration of resources available for our consumption, rather than the place that gives us life. For many years, nature gave us everything we needed and more, but nothing really la
