The aim of this work was to study the leaching of hazardous substances in additives and admixtures that are commonly contained in concrete. Time-dependent leaching has been analyzed for three types of metal containing concretes: with ordinary Portland cement (OPC), fly ash, and slag. The concretes had uniform leaching patterns, clearly above detection limits. The prolonged diffusion test of 1,700
The aim of this thesis was to develop and apply self-registered and observed measures of physical function in people with arthritis in the lower extremity. In Paper I, 181 subjects from the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register who were satisfied with their primary knee arthroplasty were studied. 44% of the medical records included reports of pain in the replaced knee at the same time as the patient

We have investigated the structure of a microbial community in semi-natural sandy grassland in southeast Sweden. The sand is rich in lime, but in most places the soil is decalcified in the upper layers, and therefore this site shows a large variation in pH within short distances. We collected samples at three different soil depths (0-10 cm, 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm) and found the pH to range from 5 t
Since its inception, Estonia has been at the forefront of innovation in terms of e-governance and applications of online systems into various aspects of Estonians’ lives. In 2014 Estonia opened up it’s digital borders and launched a digital economic citizenship - e-Residency - available to anyone in the world for using Estonian e-services to register and manage a company online. In May 2018, 5000
Samhällets ökade miljömedvetenhet kopplas ofta i byggbranschen till energieffektivitet. För en större skillnad i energianvändning kopplade till bostäder behöver mer fokus ligga på de redan existerade bostäderna och inte bara nyproduktion. En byggnads energianvändning innefattar bland annat brukarvanor. Det saknas objektiva mätningar gällande brukares vädringsvanor och hur de påverkar energianvändnSociety's increased environmental awareness is often linked in the construction industry to energy efficiency. A building's energy use includes, among other things, user habits. There’s a lack of objective measurement regarding users' ventilation habits and how they affect energy use. The purpose of this report is to find out how users in exhaust-ventilated apartment building from the
Studien syftar till att undersöka hur fastighetsbolag integrerar förvaltningsaspekter i ombyggnader av deras fastigheter. Fokus kommer ligga på hur förvaltningsaspekter och underhållsåtgärder har inkluderats samt hur samarbetet mellan förvaltningen och projektledningen sker. Studien ska även identifiera förbättringsmöjligheter och diskutera alternativa metoder. Målsättningen för studien är att besThe study aims to investigate how real estate companies integrate facility management aspects into the reconstruction of their properties. The focus will be on how facility management aspects and maintenance measures are included, as well as how the collaboration between facility managers and project managers takes place. The study will also identify areas for improvement and discuss alternative m
There is a rising demand for decarbonizing the building sector since it significantly contributes to global carbon emissions. With a focus on the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems specifically, this master’s thesis explores the embodied carbon within these building service systems. Utilizing established life cycle assessment methodologies, the case study thoroughly examines the embodied
This master thesis has been carried out in collaboration between Lund Institute of Technology and the department Kitchen&Dining at IKEA of Sweden in Älmhult. The aim for this project has been to develop new products in the kitchen in hence to make everyday life easier for people above 50 years and at the same time make it better for all IKEA’s customers. Enhanced general health conditions
The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant has been associated with lesssevere acute disease, however, concerns remain as to whether long-termcomplaints persist to a similar extent as for earlier variants. Studying 1 323 145persons aged 18-70 years living in Norway with and without SARS-CoV-2infection in a prospective cohort study, we found that individuals infected withOmicron had a similar risk
In China, the past 30 years have been characterized by economic growth and rapid development that has transformed the nation into an important player on the international market. This phenomenal progress probably would have been impossible without the cheap labor force provided by the Chinese countryside in the form of migrant workers. Millions of rural people circulate the nation today in order t
A pulse of respiration is induced by rewetting dry soil. Here we study the microbial responses underlying this pulse of respiration when rewetting soil dried for 4-days or 1-year. In the 4-days dried soil, respiration increased to a maximum rate immediately upon rewetting after which it decreased exponentially. In the 1-year dried soil, respiration also increased immediately, but then remained hig
Septic tanks with subsequent soil treatment systems (STS) are a common treatment technique for domestic wastewater in rural areas. Phosphorus (P) leakage from such systems may pose a risk to water quality (especially if they are located relatively close to surface waters). In this study, six STS in Sweden (11-28 years old) were examined. Samples taken from the unsaturated subsoil beneath the distr
The purpose of this Master thesis is to see if the kitesurfing market has changed by evaluating whether or not the kitesurfing market is a homogenous market or if it is diverging into different segments with diverse preferences. Furthermore the purpose was to look at how a North kiteboarding best can work on the kitesurfing market. Hence parts of the purpose were to understand market conditions, c
In agro-ecosystems, environmental monitoring is fundamental to detect and survey changes related to land use change and management practices. Butterflies and moths have often been suggested as suitable indicators for monitoring environmental effects on biodiversity in farmlands. Here, we estimated the required sample size and monitoring effort necessary to run a Lepidoptera survey in European farm
AIM: This study investigated childhood diagnoses in children born extremely preterm before 24 weeks of gestation.METHODS: Diagnoses of neurodevelopmental disorders and selected somatic diagnoses were retrospectively retrieved from national Swedish registries for children born before 24 weeks from 2007 to 2018. Their individual medical files were also examined.RESULTS: We studied 383 children born
Background: In most families with familial cancers, mutations have not been demonstrated; thus, healthy individuals cannot be tested for mutation status. As a consequence, many persons at risk of familial cancer live with an unknown, but presumably high, risk of developing cancer. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe individuals' perceptions of living with an increased risk of colorectal and
Globally, northern peatlands are major carbon deposits with important implications for the climate system. It is therefore crucial to understand their spatial occurrence, especially in the context of peatland degradation by land cover change and climate change. This study was aimed at mapping peatlands in the forested landscape of Sweden by modelling soil data against lidar-based terrain indices.
