1. 1. Exploring the effects of pressure on the magnetic properties of quasi-low dimensional quantum magnets via thermodynamic measurements

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Emelie Zhu; [2024]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Four model solid state compounds were used to experimentally investigate the effects of pressure on the interactions in one- and two-dimensional Heisenberg magnetic models. BaCuSi2O6, BaCu2V2O8, SrCuO2 and CuGeO3 were successfully synthesized via solid-state reactions and characterized via x-ray diffraction. READ MORE

3. 2. Behaviours of older adults in urban outdoor environments during warm days

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Sandra Lujic; [2023-08-18]
   Keywords : Older adults; urban outdoor environments; behaviour; preferences; thermal comfort;

   Abstract : As a result of climate change, heat waves are expected to increase in frequency, duration, and severity, which is particularly threatening to the urban population. Vulnerable groups, including the older population, are more likely to be affected by adverse health effects due to heat exposure. READ MORE

4. 3. Modelling Micropollutant Removal Through Ozonation in Wastewater

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Maximiliano Andrés Oportus Foster; [2023]
   Keywords : Micropollutants; water reuse; wastewater treatment models; ozonation; computer modeling; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Proper management of water resources is a key to climate change adaptation and resilience in modern societies. Adequate treatment of wastewater is essential for ensuring the sustainability of the water cycle and the health of the environment and the ecosystems that inhabit it. READ MORE

5. 4. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
   Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

6. 5. Unlocking the Potential of Solar-Hydro Hybrid Solutions: Feasibility and Economic Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Måns Rosberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydropower; Solarpower; Hybrid power production; Solar-hydro hybrid power; Reservoir storage; Energy storage; Pumped hydro power; Floating PV; PV; Photovoltaics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Hybrid solutions that combine multiple renewable energy sources, such as solar power and hydro power, are gaining popularity as a means of meeting the growing energy demands while minimising environmental impacts, but also as an opportunity of connecting solar power plants to the grid in areas where this might not be possible unless large investments are made. This master thesis aims to evaluate the feasibility and economic viability of integrating solar panels with an existing grid connection point at a hydro power plant, along with the introduction of an energy storage solution using a hydro power plant reservoir.
