This study analyses the influence of green roofs in different heights of the urban canopy layer: from the pedestrian level, up to 1m above the rooftop, in a social housing project in the South of Brazil. In order to quantify the cooling contribution of green roofs to the local microclimate, the housing project was simulated with ENVI-met 4.0 in the summer season. The variables used to assess the g
In this study, effects of a dust hole and its location on the flow structure, endwall heat transfer and friction factor in a U bend channel used for a gas turbine blade tip cooling are numerically studied. The dust hole is placed on the endwall of a U bend at different locations. The U bend channel without dust hole is considered as Baseline. The Reynolds number ranges from 50,000 to 440,000. Resu
There is limited knowledge of knee laxity in the long term after a complete anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear treated without ACL reconstruction. The aim of this study was (1) to describe the clinical course of knee laxity after a complete ACL tear over 15 years, and (2) to study the association between knee laxity and meniscal injuries and the development of knee osteoarthritis (OA). We studi
The purpose of this thesis was to examine climate related human mobility in the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC). The adverse effect of climate change in SADC is mainly linked to increasing rainfall variability and a higher frequency or intensity of floods and droughts. These effects are a major challenge for human security. Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing, unres
Plug-and-Produce (with the meaning that devices can be plugged in without any manual configurations needed) is an attractive paradigm for manufacturing systems, and in particular for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that do not have the expertise of system integrators but do need to be able to reconfigure their systems by themselves. One approach for loosely (in terms of timing) coupled devices
Antibody-based microarrays have emerged as an established proteomic technology allowing multiplexed and sensitive profiling of complex proteomes, in a high-throughput and miniaturized manner. Recently, numerous applicative efforts have been pursued generating disease-associated protein signatures that now could be further explored for improved disease diagnostics, prognostics and classification.
In the hospital, intensive care unit (ICU) is an isolated space where patients with acute symptoms are treated. When the patients are in ICU, their families are usually in psychological crisis and under great pressure. The value of ICU is thus to provide a complete ICU service by which not only the patients receive good treatment, but the feelings of family members are also considered and managed.
In this paper, we introduce a non-parametric 2-D spectral estimator for smooth spectra, allowing for irregularly sampled measurements. The estimate is formed by assuming that the spectrum is smooth and will vary slowly over the frequency grids, such that the spectral density inside any given rectangle in the spectral grid may be approximated well as a plane. Using this framework, the 2-D spectrum
Labour and environmental provisions became a prominent feature in trade agreements nowadays. Since 2011, the European Union devotes a whole chapter in its trade agreements to these issues - the trade and sustainable development (TSD) chapter. This paper argues that an important aspect of the EU’s approach are the institutional mechanisms which monitor the implementation of the TSD chapter. Applyin
In the 21st century more states are realizing the benefits with hosting “Sports Mega-Events” such as the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup. These events create an opportunity for a country to spread a carefully selected image and to gain influence and attraction in the international arena, or in other words, to exercise soft power. This thesis investigates how the Chinese government, through mas
Mangroves provide numerous environmental benefits, such as carbon sequestration, water purification, climate change mitigation, and flood and Tsunami impact reduction. Despite these unique advantages, mangroves are threatened by the combined adverse impacts of human activities and climate change. Therefore, it is essential to implement reasonable practices to avoid further degradation of mangroves
We apply the statistical sparse jump model, a recently devel-oped, interpretable and robust regime switching model, to infer key featuresthat drive the return dynamics of the largest cryptocurrencies. The algorithmjointly performs feature selection, parameter estimation, and state classifica-tion. Our large set of candidate features are partly based on cryptocurrency,sentiment and financial marke
Huvudregeln är att rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen fördelas i enlighet med kvittningsprincipen. Det innebär att vardera part bär sina egna rättegångskostnader oavsett utgången i målet. En enskild part som vinner i förvaltningsmål mot det allmänna saknar, med undantag för skattemålen, möjlighet att få ersättning för de kostnader som parten haft för att ta tillvara sin rätt. I uppsatseThe general rule is that costs in administrative proceedings are allocated in accordance with the principle of set-off. This means that each party bears its own costs regardless of the outcome of the case. With the exception of tax cases, an individual party who wins administrative proceedings against the public authorities is not entitled to reimbursement of the costs incurred by the party in ass
This study explores how expert knowledge is perceived and how the government adjusts to expert knowledge within the Swedish referral system, by studying the case of the Security Zones Act (Lagen om säkerhetszoner, SFS 2024:200). The purpose is to analyze how experts and officials perceive the referral systems’ instrumental and symbolic meaning, and how the Swedish government adjusts to the expert
