Denna avhandling handlar om hur arkitektur producerar normer genom hållbar stadsutveckling, från formulering av visioner och strategier till materialisering och design. Den handlar också om arkitekturens potentiella roll i att omförhandla och utmana den normativt utstakade vägen framåt, till förmån för alternativa förhållningssätt. Hållbar stadsutveckling beskrivs i avhandlingen som en typologi avArchitecture, planning and urban design are some of the professional practices that contribute to the spatial aspects of societal organization and enable everyday life to run smoothly. The urgent and intertwined challenges of climate change and social injustice have introduced new dimensions to these tasks, frequently framed as working towards ‘sustainable development.’ In this doctoral thesis, I

För en utförlig populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning, vänligen följ länken till höger på denna sidan. De svenska utbildningsmyndigheterna står inför ett seglivat problem. Lärare har under många år uttryckt missnöje över alltmer utbredda och genomgripande krav på dokumentation. En hel del dokumentation stjäl tid som annars skulle kunna läggas på elevers lärande och att utveckla undervisningen, lyder The Swedish education authorities are up against a tenacious problem. Teachers have for years expressed dissatisfaction over increasingly prolific and pervasive demands for documentation that hijacks time that could have been invested in pupils’ learning. Over the past 15 years different Swedish governments have sought to remedy this problem but to no avail. The ‘burden of documentation’, as it is

By combining acoustic fields and liquid flows in microchannels we develop tools to chart and separatebiological particles based on their bio-mechanical properties. I will present an overview of three ongoingprojects where acoustic forces are utilized to separate blood cells.We studied the packing behavior of whole blood in a sound field. We discovered that cells self-organizesuch that red blood cells

This doctoral thesis examines the encounter between the dead and the living within 19th and 20th century landscape cemeteries. It shows how the relationship unfolds through the materiality and practices occurring within them.Landscape cemeteries were established from the late 18th century and with their garden-inspired design, location outside of the city and increasing secular administration were

This study investigates particulate matter (PM) and regulated emissions from renewable rapeseed oil methyl ester (RME) biodiesel in pure and blended forms and contrasts that to conventional diesel fuel. Environmental and health concerns are the major motivation for combustion engines research, especially finding sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels and reducing diesel PM emissions. Fatty acid

Agriculture is interrelated with the socio-economic and natural environment and faces increasingly the problem of managing its multiple functions in a sustainable way. Growing emphasis is on adequate policies that can support both agriculture and sustainable development. Integrated Assessment and Modelling (IAM) can provide insight into the potential impacts of policy changes. An increasing number

Extensive research has demonstrated a tumor-promoting role of increased WNT5A expression in malignant melanoma. However, very little light has been shed upon how WNT5A expression is up-regulated in melanoma. A potential regulator of WNT5A expression is the pro-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin (IL)-6, which shares the ability of WNT5A to increase melanoma cell invasion. Here, we investigate whethe

The early Middle Ages saw the formation of the three Nordic kingdoms of Sweden, Norway and Denmark, and at that time the area studied here constituted a border region between them. During the same period the Church was very active in the area: a bishopric was established and a large number of churches were built. This makes the area a particularly interesting one to study from the point of view of

Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder. There is no proven protection, but many treatments can partially improve symptoms. The disease is caused by monogenetic mechanisms in very few cases, but for the majority of patients the etiology is unknown. Epidemiological studies have identified a potential role for inflammation. The thesis investigates inflammation and i

Popular Abstract in Swedish Runt 1750 upptäckte en tysk kemist vid namn Marggraf att det var möjligt att utvinna socker från betor. Ett par decennier senare började en av hans studenter, Archard, att selektera betor utifrån deras sockerhalt och öppnade också världens första sockerbetsfabrik år 1801. Mängden utvunnet socker per rot låg runt 4 %. Sedan dess har förädling och förbättrade jordbruksmetAround 1750 a German chemist discovered it to be possible to extract sugar crystals from beet juice. Since then, breeding and improved agricultural practices have increased the concentration of sucrose per root from around 4% to around 18%. Sugar content is still one of the most important characters in sugar beet breeding, but breeders of today are also faced with many more characters, many of a c

Using data on four welfare attributes in Zambian households, Chapter 2 explores three approaches to evaluate multidimensional inequality. The examination indicate

Popular Abstract in Swedish NÄR ÖRESUNDSBRON INVIGDES ÅR 2000 nådde förväntningarna på dansk-svensk integration sin kulmen. Prognoser och framtidsspekulationer haglade.

The bridge was an important move towards the visionary realisation of a transnational Öresund Region. In this dissertation the communicative aspects of the regional process are put in focus. The vision of the Öresund Region that developed during the 1990s

This project is an investigation in atmosphere, and an attempt to create a new architectural idiom through the vernacular Japanese building style minka, the ambiance and context of the woods, and, importantly, by exploring whether it is possible to keep the crookedness from the first sketches throughout the whole process, into the completed building. Minka are traditional preindustrial homes for

Businesses today need to recognize that they have to be fast at realizing and exploiting new competitive advantages before the opportunity is lost. Instead of the traditional focus on price and quality, there is a shift towards the delivery of value to customers. This is strongly connected to the reduction of downtime of production and high reliability. Here the spare parts supply chain plays an i

During the Devonian, 377 Ma ago, the Earth was impacted by a large celestial body, striking ground in the Siljan area in Dalarna, Sweden. The impact created what is today the largest confirmed impact structure in western Europe. Since its formation, the structure has however been heavily eroded, leaving no trace of the original crater. Today, it is instead recognizable due to the central plateau a

The Swedish national library has collected nearly all Swedish printed materials for more than three centuries. Regarding digital material, the digital legal deposit act was enacted about nine years ago. According to the law, a selection of digital publications must be sent to the national library for preservation. The Swedish digital legal deposit act has been heavily criticized, mostly because it
