  1. 26. Investigating the performance of hempcrete as an option for retrofitting masonry buildings

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

    Author : Henry Lanham; [2019]
    Keywords : Hempcrete; lime-hemp Miljöbyggnad; moisture safety; future climate; energy use; mould risk.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : One fifth of the energy consumed by buildings in Sweden is by those built before 1945, many of them constructed from solid masonry walls. Improving their heating energy consumption is a challenge we must face in light of human’s impact on climate change as well as increasing energy costs. READ MORE

  3. 27. Modelling cross-laminated timber floors in dynamic analysis - Eigenfrequency prediction

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

    Author : Johannes Wetterholt; [2019]
    Keywords : finite element method; FEM; dynamic analysis; Eigenfrequency; CLT; cross-laminated timber; cross-laminated timber floors; wooden floors; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the late 1990s cross-laminated timber (CLT) was developed. The development of CLT was a project aimed to produce a structural product that could compete with the concrete industry and contribute to a reduced effect on the environment, due to the low environmental impact of timber in relation to other building materials.

  4. 28. Investigation of methods for quantifying sitting postures in cars

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Jessica Wedmark; Mathilda Janson; [2018]
    Keywords : motion capture system; pelvic orientation; passenger; sitting posture; safety assessement; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Understanding and being able to quantify sitting postures is a central asset in car safety evaluations. This is due to the fact that passengers can choose a range of different sitting positions. READ MORE

  5. 29. Improving heterogenous team collaboration in disaster risk management: lessons from innovation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Peter Norris; [2018]
    Keywords : Disaster Risk Management; heterogeneous; team; collaboration; innovation; technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Heterogeneous team collaboration is a fundamental component of Disaster Risk Management (DRM). However, DRM teams face complex-dynamic situations characterised by high disruptions, distributed locations and other factors, which create persistent problems for team collaboration. READ MORE

  6. 30. Conceptual Dynamic Analysis of a Vehicle Body

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Björn Pedersen; [2018]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) and body dynamic performance of automotive vehicles is highly dependent of the components included in the body structure and compartment, since they add mass, stiffness and damping to the overall structure. Today, the noise levels in the compartment are predicted using complex and detailed computational models during both early and late stages of the vehicle development process. READ MORE
