Induktionsvärmningen är en värmingstyp med hög energidensitet, låg investeringskostnad, snabb uppstartstid och hög flexibilitet. Ett serieresonant induktionsvärmningssystem består i sin enklaste form av en växelspänningskälla, en spole, en kondensator och objektMany different types of heat sources are used in the industry. Some of these are open flames, IR-radiation, resistive heating and induction heating. Induction heating is a heating technology that have a high energy density, fast start up times and high flexibility. A simple series resonant induction heating system consists of a voltage source, a capacitor, an inductor and the object to be heated.

This master thesis investigates material characterization by reflection and transmission of electromagnetic waves in the 40-60 GHz band (millimeter-wave spectrum) for different materials. The free-space measurement method is a fast, efficient and non-destructive way of examining a material and is being researched by both academics and industries. The theory of how electromagnetic waves interact w
The SABR model has for a long time been an invaluable tool for capturing the volatility smile and to price nancial derivatives not quoted in the market. However, the current negative rate environment in the EUR market has led to numerous challenges for nancial institutions. One of the most problematic issues is that the SABR model used for volatility interpolation and extrapolation fails when rate
The feeling of being unsafe in the city creates restrictions in many people's lives. The urban environment has an impact on the perception of safety and the municipality can through their work with the urban design affect the safety. This thesis analyzes a form of citizen participation in urban development, called safety walks. The aim of the study is to examine in which ways safety walks may
Sandvik SRP has earlier studied a new way of calculating the cost in crushing and screening the results was a satisfactory, Sandvik SRP is now ready to go further in this study. The purpose of this study is further develop of the earlier adopted generic cost model earlier developed by Heyman and Lindström in order to calculate the cost per metric ton within the world of crushing and screening. By
This study has looked at eight municipalities in Scania and how they use climate related information in their work with climate adaptation, and what information they would like to have access to in order to take the next step. The municipalities were chosen on the basis of population and are no extreme cases; rather they are examples of an average Swedish municipality. How the usage of information
Rivers have been modified significantly during the last 200 years in Switzerland. These modifications were done for protection purposes (protection against floods), construction of hydropower plants, gain of land or other human activities. These artificial transformations have reduced, sometimes drastically, the natural dynamic of the rivers, which has reduced biodiversity, and has also increased
Vad studenter väljer att studera på universitetet påverkas av många olika variabler. Syftet med studien var således att undersöka hur individers olika bakgrundsfaktorer samt personlighetsdrag utifrån Big-five-teorin påverkar deras val av utbildning. Studien undersökte relationen mellan socioekonomisk status, personlighetsegenskaper, kön samt etnicitet och studerades på studenter vid Lunds universiWhat students choose to study is effected by different variables. Thus, the aim of this study is to examine how different background variables and personality traits from the Big-five theory influence students choice of higher education. The study exam-ined the relation between socioeconomic status, personality traits, gender and ethnici-ty and their choice of study was observed on students from L
Ökandet av den svenska kollektivtrafiken medför att fler busshållplatser behöver byggas och allt flera befintliga busshållplatser måste underhållas. Svårigheter och diskussioner som dyker upp är planeringen av drift- och underhåll på busshållplatsernas vägbeläggningar samt val av egenskaper till dessa. Orsaken till svårigheterna är att beläggningar ofta får skador och defekter såsom spårbildning, The increase of the Swedish public transport causes more bus stops to be built and more existing bus stops to be maintained. The difficulties and discussions that crops up associated with the increasing public transport is the planning of operation and maintenance of bus stop pavements surface and the choice of properties to them. The reason for the difficulties is that damages and defects, such a
Previously developed methods to evaluate FED and FEC level via combination of CFD and evacuation simulation have been verified by new features of FDS6 and extended to fire cases involving common building materials. The FED levels calculated by the conversion factor [1] based on carbon monoxide are compared with the direct calculation by way of mass fraction of carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide and

Objective: Neurological outcome prediction is crucial early after cardiac arrest. Serum biomarkers released from brain cells after hypoxic-ischaemic injury may aid in outcome prediction. The only serum biomarker presently recommended in the European Resuscitation Council prognostication guidelines is neuron-specific enolase (NSE), but NSE has limitations. In this study, we therefore analyzed the o
Syftet med studien är att beskriva och söka kunskap om vad som händer i familjer när ett barn insjuknar i cancer. Familjernas egna upplevelser utgör utgångspunkten i våra försök att förstå deras situation vid tidpunkten för diagnosbeskedet under behandlingstiden och efter att den har avslutats. Vårt intresse är främst fokuserat på hur behandlingen påverkar familjer med barn som har överlevt en can
Bostads- och servicesektorn utgör 40 procent av Sveriges totala energianvändning. Endast småhus står för drygt 8 procent. Energin som används i småhus går i huvudsak till uppvärmning och varmvatten. 2020 var direktverkande el den vanligaste energikällan för uppvärmning av småhus (Energimyndigheten 2022). Elpriset har stigit kraftigt under det senaste året. Detta kan eventuellt ha påverkan på boendThe building and service sector consume 40 percent of Sweden’s total energy use. Which of only single-family houses are responsible for 8 percent.
