  1. 1. Transportation Study of Release from a Space Elevator to Cislunar Space

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Daniel Griffin; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Elevator; Cislunar Space; Mass Transportation; Astronaut Safety; Apex Anchor; Rymdhiss; Cislunar-rymden; Masstransport; Astronautsäkerhet; Apex-ankaret;

    Abstract : To leave Earth’s gravity well and ascend into Cislunar space takes ingenuity, and the engineering feats of many. Now to propel humanity further into space, rockets will need assistance to provide the large requirements of mass to be used for space structures. READ MORE

  3. 2. THE USE OF ELEVATORS FOR EVACUATION IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Jiajia Li; [2022]
    Keywords : Elevators; residential buildings; Evacuation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study focuses on the human factors associated with elevator use during evacuation in residential buildings. An online survey is conducted to explore seven factors that may influence people’s choice of elevators in China and the United Kingdom, including floor height, waiting time for elevators, crowd density in front of elevators, mobility limitations, instructions, fire location concerning people’s current location, and information about reliability of elevators during evacuation.

  4. 3. Investigation of methods to analyse global stability of a reinforced concrete stabilising core

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Evelina Husak; Ellinor Persson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Ensuring the structural stability of a building is an evident requirement for the building to be safe to use. This becomes a qualified task for a structural engineer. Ensuring stability has become especially important nowadays while stabilising elements often are kept to a minimum and tall buildings are common. READ MORE

  5. 4. Generating Product-Service Design Improvements from a Climate Impact and Energy Use Perspective Using Life Cycle Assessment : The Case of Vertical Access Equipment

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Author : Vishnu Teja Tirumalasetty; Max Olof Jonas Bäck; [2021]
    Keywords : Life Cycle Assessment; LCA; Product-Service System; PSS; Vertical Access Equipment; Circular Economy;

    Abstract : Climate change is connected to several negative effects on local environments around the globe such as, longer, and more intense droughts, less freshwater supplies, ocean warming, sea level rise, polar ice melting, more intense storms, and rainfall (NASA, 2021).  These problems are mainly due to the increasing amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as well as other greenhouse gases (GHG) which cause a similar or stronger climate change effect (WWF, 2021).
