1. Climate-neutral buildings – Impact of existing definitions on building design
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljöAbstract : Climate change poses one of the most substantial threats to humanity today global greenhouse gas emissions are not reduced drastically in the near future, it can lead to severe consequences worldwide. To address this issue, global and national goals have been developed which aim to foster climate-neutral societies and industries. READ MORE

2. Energy Renovation: A case study of a multi-family house built during the Million program in Djursholm
University essay from KTH/EnergiteknikAbstract : Large share of Swedish building stock were built during 1940-1980 when people were not fully aware of the energy efficiency concept. Majority of the buildings that made energy declaration are in energy class E-G, which are considered as high energy consumption buildings with low energy performance, and only few buildings meet the Swedish requirements for near zero energy buildings which are in energy class A-C.

4. Simulation Tool for Design of Multiple Photovoltaic Systems : Estimation of System Sizes, Grid Interaction, and Area Requirements
University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknikAbstract : Photovoltaic solar power is an increasing source of energy and part of the renewable energy generation which is needed in the near future to achieve the set climate goals. When planning new photovoltaic installations, parameters which affect the design are both local conditions (e.g. weather) and system parameters such as tilt and azimuth angles. READ MORE

5. Searching for doubly charged Higgs bosons using same-sign hadronic tau final states - A focused study on the charge-flip background of hadronic taus
University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : The search for doubly charged Higgs bosons (H±±) aims at resolving the mass generation mechanism of neutrinos in the Standard Model. The current search by the ATLAS Same-Sign Dilepton group uses the decay product of H±± to a pair of same-sign hadronic τ-leptons, which is an extension of their previous search using same-sign dielectrons and dimuons.
