Light/dark cycles play an essential role in people's performance, mood and daily rhythm. This study aimed to evaluate an early prototype of a personalised home lighting system including body-worn loggers. A convenience sample (N = 28) wore the devices for 23 h in the field and were given a demonstration of the lighting system components.

This study develops the concept of 'realms of carbon’ to advance an understanding of climate politics in sites where carbon production and consumption, generating carbon emissions, is embedded in culture and identity. It does so by drawing on insights of three different theories, which in different ways, deal with dimensions of culture and identity to economic and political life. The study fur

Over the last century and a half, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of artificial light at night (ALAN) across the globe, particularly in the Global North. Though this has provided a range of socioeconomic benefits to these societies, it has also come with a range of negative impacts, due to its associated energy consumption, and also the effects of light itself. The latter has led to

Travel guidebooks are both travel information channels and objects of consumption. In contemporary tourism, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) make information abundant and mostly free of charge. Therefore, as tourists still buy them, there must be something that makes guidebooks a valuable object. This research aims at understanding the value of travel guidebooks in the digital age.

Travel guidebooks are both sources of travel information and an object of consumption. In contemporary tourism, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) make information not only available, but abundant and mostly free of charge. Therefore, considering that people still buy and use them, there must be something that makes travel guidebooks a valuable object. The research sets out to find w

With increasing demands on the industry for resource efficiency, processes are often built or retrofitted withrecycle streams in order to decrease energy and raw material demands. However, this also increases thecomplexity of the process as a whole and may bring unexpected effects. In this contribution, such a case,consisting of a two-stage evaporator system, fed with the product stream of an upst

Chemical risks of consumer goods are a rather new concern in society. These risks are usually based on sythetic chemicals and man-made, often imperceptible and potentially devastating. These risks are reliant on knowledge claims and experiences as basis for risk judgments since, for example, chemical properties, threshold values and exposure are part of defining the risk. But risks are also define

A simple mass balance model has been developed to assess the planetary boundary for P supply in relation to use by human society. Phosphorus sources used by humans are from fossil reserves. The model takes into account resource use rate and reserves, consumption, phosphate to food production, environmental degradation, waste and recycling. Various policy scenarios are tested from current end of pi

Reuse and recycling were important, but often forgotten, parts of managing the preindustrial fashionable wardrobe. Through researching diaries and extant garments from Swedish collections, the sources reveal everyday textile practices of costly textiles, mending, turning, altering, using old fabric or garments for new, change of parts or color, and reuse of textile material for new fabrics.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a consequence of obesity and defined as cluster of at least three out of five criteria covering insulin resistance/glucose intolerance, abdominal obesity, hypertension, low HDL-c and elevated TG levels. Imbalance between energy intake and expenditure is known to alter normal physiological function in many aspects, and leads to obesity, which in the long run may turn in

The purpose of this study was to document historical trends and socioeconomic inequalities in ill health outcomes related to alcohol consumption, narcotics use and tobacco smoking over the seventeen years prior to the implementation of the Swedish government’s first strategy for alcohol, narcotics, doping and tobacco (ANDT) in 2011. We also sought to explain the changes over time in terms of chang

Cardiometabolic diseases are the leading preventable causes of death in most geographies. The causes, clinical presentations, and pathogenesis of cardiometabolic diseases vary greatly worldwide, as do the resources and strategies needed to prevent and treat them. Therefore, there is no single solution and health care should be optimised, if not to the individual (ie, personalised health care), the

The Bolivian quinoa has transformed from being a domestic food supply to being introduced to the global market. This transformation of the market has contributed to several social changes in the local society in the Altiplano, Bolivia, where quinoa has an ancient history of cultivation and consumption. By examining what determinant actors and underlying incitements that have contributed to the int

This research analyses the presence of political personalisation and its role in establishing performed authenticity in political content on TikTok. Despite TikTok being a platform created for entertainment purposes, TikTok has come to play a significant role in political discourse and engagement with politicians Employing a qualitative approach to Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis, this rese

In this work we present the quasi-steady state simulation of a regenerative organic Rankine cycle (ORC) integrated in a passenger vessel, over a standard round trip. The study case is the M/S Birka Stockholm cruise ship, which covers a daily route between Stockholm (Sweden) and Mariehamn (Finland). Experimental data of the exhaust gas temperatures, engine loads, and electricity demand on board wer

To meet Sweden’s national environmental goal of 70% emissions reduction by 2030 compared to 2010 from domestic transport, electrification is considered key. However, as more chargeable vehicles are integrated into the market, shortage of capacity for charging infrastructure may arise. To remedy this, flexibility within charging infrastructure is proposed. The aim for this thesis is to estimate the
