1. 21. Pros and Cons of Using Large Concrete Blocks in an Office Building Structure : Comfort, Stability, Sustainability

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

   Author : Shwan Baban; Asliyalfani Abolfazl; [2023]
   Keywords : Concrete blocks; C3C blocks; FE models; life cycle analysis; mechanical connections; CO2 emissions.;

   Abstract : In 2019, the cement industry used 280 million tons of oil equivalent, contributing to 7% of totalindustrial energy consumption. This resulted in 2.4 billion tons of CO2 emissions, constituting26% of the industrial sector’s CO2 output and 7% of global energy-related emissions. READ MORE

3. 22. Towards low carbon buildings: A case study in Sweden

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

   Author : Huynh Tuan Tran; Victor-Antoine Delorme; [2023]
   Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Environmental impact of building materials; Carbon neutrality; Biobased material; Biochar; Cross Laminated Timber; Biogenic carbon; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This study comprehensively evaluated the global warming potential of an office building in a newly built Scandinavian neighbourhood seeking to reach sustainability. The primary objective of the research was to support the city authorities of Helsingborg by providing valuable insights into actual carbon emissions at the building level and proposing measures to minimize these emissions to achieve climate neutrality by 2030.

5. 24. RF Compressor (SLED) Phase-Modulation to Reduce Peak Fields in the MAX IV Linear Accelerator

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

   Author : Joel Ekström; [2023]
   Keywords : Accelerator; MAX IV; LINAC; Phase-modulation; SLED; Pulse compression; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Modern particle accelerators need strong electric fields in order to produce high energy particles. Such high voltages are typically reached by injecting pulsed radio frequency power through several steps of amplification. At the end, pulse compression is used to further improve the energy gain at the cost of pulse-length. READ MORE

6. 25. The effect of high-ratio biochar replacement in concrete on performance properties : Experimental study of biochar addition to concrete mixture.

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand
