Av den svenska befolkningen är det ca 15 % som lider av födoämnesallergi. Små mängder av ett allergent ämne kan orsaka allvarliga konsekvenser. Därför har alla livsmedelsföretag i Sverige ett lagstadgat ansvar att producera allergensäkra livsmedel. Otillfredsställande hantering av allergener vid de olika produktionsstegen kan ligga till grund för allergenkorskontaminering. Goda grundförutsättninga15 % of the Swedish population suffers from food allergy. Low doses of an allergenic substance may cause serious consequences. Therefore, it is mandatory by law for all food producing companies in Sweden to produce allergenic safe food. Unsatisfactorily handling of allergenic substances in the different steps of food production may cause allergenic cross contamination. Sound prerequisites are of m

The threat of potentially catastrophic climate change has led to 195 countries pledging to keep global average temperature rise well below 2°C based on pre-industrial levels. Wind energy technology has developed to a point where it can make a significant contribution to meeting this objective. A number of countries have developed substantial wind energy networks in recent years which in turn has a

It is common knowledge that shading systems and solar control glasses are used to avoid glare and overheating at expenses of daylight. In Dynamic Thermal Modelling tools, there is no assessment method where the shading use is expressed when predicting the building performance. Furthermore, literature often refers to studies where complex fenestration systems are optimized for specific cases. Howev
