The study was carried out to assess the energy performance of the buildings in a cluster located in Lund. The buildings were the projects of million homes program, built in the 1960s, and are in great need of renovation. Five retrofit techniques were proposed in the study. Improving the building envelope with insulation and windows, adding an exhaust air heat pump, combining exhaust air heat pump,

In the initial stage of planning, considering the solar impact of urban layout on the building can effectively avoid some irreversible design issues, improve the indoor environment, and reduce energy demand. The typical architectural models of three representative cities (Copenhagen, Berlin and Hong Kong) were selected as the analysis cases in this study. By analysing several sunlight and solar me

Bakgrund: Arbetet på en operationsavdelning är avancerat och högteknologiskt. Dagligen ställs stora krav på operationspersonalen för att utföra säker vård.

The method used is Carol Bacchi’s What’s the problem represented to be-approach. Pierre Bourdieu’s the

In this thesis we introduce some basic concepts in representation theory such as Schur’s Lemma, induced representations and M-groups. These concepts are then used in particular on a group G_96 of order 96, in order to determine its irreducible representations and its character table. Furthermore, we show that G_96 is an M-group and contains a subgroup which is not an M-group itself.
