Social hållbarhet viktigt för att nå resurseffektivitet i smarta elnät Vad är smarta elnät egentligen? Att svara på detta är inte helt enkelt, för det finns ingen exakt definition av begreppet. Det kan dock förklaras som att elsystemet digitaliseras och blir effektivare så att det bättre passar en framtid med mer förnybar och varierande elproduktion och ökad elektrifiering. I detta arbete har detSmart grids are often advertised as more environmentally sustainable compared to their “conventional” counterparts. What is highlighted then is their potential to save energy and integrate more renewables into the grid, thus decreasing CO2-emissions. This thesis investigates two less discussed aspects of smart grids, those of circular economy and social sustainability. An initial literature review

De senaste årens tillväxt och framsteg inom cloud computing har medfört många fördelar ur ett organisatoriskt perspektiv. Företag har nu möjlighet att få åtkomst till pooler av datorresurser konfigurerade i form av servrar, lagring och nätverk, detta utan att behöva investera i dyr hårdvaruinfrastruktur. Det är dock viktigt att ta hänsyn till teknikens nackdelar och de svårigheter som kan uppstå.

Bakgrund: Magnetisk resonanstomografi (MR) relateras ofta till oro och ångest hos barn, bland annat på grund av det höga ljudet, trånga utrymmet och långa undersökningstiden, därav är sedering och generell anestesi vanligt förekommande.

Polyamide 6 (PA6) is known to absorb water from its environment due to its chemical structure. The water absorption leads to changes in the mechanical properties as well as an increase in volume (swelling) of the polyamide. In this work, the sorption and diffusion of water vapor are investigated through gravimetric experiments and numerical simulations. The mixture theory framework is adopted to d

Detta betyder att behovet av skydd mot översvämningar troligtvis kommer öka för dessa miljöer i framtiden. Förekomsten av översvämningar förväntas öka till följd av klimatförändringen. Utav de ca 500 kyrkobyggnaderna i Lunds stift kan upp tThe occurrence of floods is expected to increase due to climate change, which may lead to destruction or loss of value of cultural heritage sites.

Differential of the peripheral blood is an important tool when assessing blood-related diseases. Lymphocytes are part of the immune system and morphological changes thereof should raise attention. CellaVision’s current systems automatically detect and pre-classify lymphocytes that exhibit atypical morphologies but do not further distinguish those into subclasses. By adding the subclasses into the
