Building Integration of Solar Energy. A Multifunctional Approach

This thesis consists of two parts. The first part deals with building integrated solar energy, mainly from an architectural point of view. It is based on a literature review and discusses solar energy, the building as a system, the concept building integration (definition, motives, criteria, examples) and the relation between architecture and solar energy. The second part presents a novel design o

1. Formal arguments against full 1:st person knowledge of motivation. 2. Empirical evidence against 1:st person knowledge of motivation. 3. Sensitivity to background factors. 4. Individuation of options. 5. Charitable or paternalistic interpretation. 6. The role of self-diagnosis in deliberation. 7. Conclusions

A Scalable Formulation for Engineering Combination Therapies for Evolutionary Dynamics of Disease

It has been shown that optimal controller synthesis for positive systems can be formulated as a linear program. Leveraging these results, we propose a scalable iterative algorithm for the systematic design of sparse, small gain feedback strategies that stabilize the evolutionary dynamics of a generic disease model. We achieve the desired feedback structure by augmenting the optimization problems w

Tänk om det är precis tvärtom!?

Dominerande medicinsk forskning säger att kolesterolhalten i blodet är en potent riskfaktor för hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Ju lägre kolesterol, desto bättre! brukar man säga. Parallellt med detta finns studier som hävdar att denna kolesterolhypotes är förknippad med många frågetecken. Den i Sverige mest kände kolesterolkritikern Uffe Ravnskov, har nyligen givit ut boken The Cholesterol Myths. Professor Bo

Analysis of multiphase tranport phenomena in PEMFCs by incorporating microscopic model for catalyst layer structure

The catalyst layer (CL) in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells is one of the key components regulating the overall performance of the cell. In PEM fuel cells, there are two CLs having identical composition for hydrogen oxidation (HO) and oxygen reduction (OR) reactions. There are four phases inside the CL, namely: carbon, Pt particles, ionomer and voids. In this work, a micro-model of th
