This paper is an exploratory discussion of place and space from a cultural geographic point of view. On the one hand it discusses the concept of place, trying to identify some of its characteristics connected to different Nordic understandings of landscape and place; this will take departure in people’s practice in place and landscape. It will on the other hand discuss the more abstract concept of

Trapezoidal cross sections are often used as main longitudinal load-bearing systems in steel-concrete composite bridges. A critical design stage for these girders occurs during casting of the bridge deck, when the non-composite steel section must support the entire construction load, including the wet concrete. A research work was undertaken to study lateral torsional buckling (LTB) capacity and s

The objective of these two deliverables is to get an overview of the European organisations that we have identified as probable users of the SEAMLESS IF (Section A) and to report on the users' requirements on such an assessment tool (Section B). The major characteristics of these organisations are described, along with their tasks in relation to assessment of agricultural and sustainability questi

Net Zero Energy Buildings, Net ZEBs, is one of many necessary measures for climate change mitigation as they may reduce the energy consumption in the building sector. The Net ZEB interacts with a grid infrastructure. It is therefore important to consider the interaction with the grid in the design phase. This paper reports an evaluation of a proposed design of a Net ZEB in the south of Sweden eva

Popular Abstract in Swedish Översvämningar i städer ökar på grund av ökad urbanisering samt klimatförändringar och klimatvariabilitet. Denna avhandling presenterar effekterna av klimatförändringar och intensiv nederbörd i städer samt handhavandet av översvämning i urban områden i Mumbai, Indien och i Skåne samt Göteborg. En rad statistiska och analytiska verktyg har tillämpats för att studera nedeFlooding in urban basins is intensifying due to increasing urbanization and climate change and variability. This thesis presents how the effects of climate change and high-intensive rainfall on the urban drainage system and management of flooding in urban areas of were studied in Mumbai, India and Southern Sweden, including Skåne and Gothenburg. Various statistical and analytical tools were applie
