The aim of this report is to describe the concept of Double Skin Façades based on different sources of literature. Although the concept is not new, there is a growing tendency from the architects to put it into practice. Its complexity and adaptability to different climatic conditions increase the need for careful design. Since the construction types can differ from one location to another, it is

This study attempts to discover how ergonomic guidelines should be visualized in order to make it easier and more interesting to find and interpret the guidelines throughout the construction process. A prototype, visualizing ergonomic guidelines on the intranet, has been developed and evaluated at a company that produces cars for the global market. The results show that the visualization of ergono

The paper presents the archival aspects of a research project, concerned with the Stockholm Film Workshop ("FIlmverkstan", 1973 - 2001). The specific problems connected to minor cinema practices and film archives are discussed.

Popular Abstract in Swedish I slutet av 1800-talet gjordes upptäckten att atomer bara kan ta upp eller sända ut ljus med vissa våglängder. Denna egenskap beror på att elektronerna endast kan befinna sig i ett av flera diskreta energitillstånd. Man säger att elektronerna är kvantiserade. Kvantiseringen är en effekt av att elektronerna i en atom tvingas hålla sig inom en mycket liten volym. Ju mindrIn this thesis, spectroscopic studies of quantum wells (QWs), quantum wires (QWRs) and quantum dots (QDs) in III-V semiconductors are presented. The electronic structure of these low-dimensional structures have been studied by absorption, photocurrent, electroreflectance, photoluminescence (PL), and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy. The band alignment of GaAs pseudomorphically grow

In order to produce good decisions, an efficient foundation for decision-making has to exist. This article shows the importance of formal as well as informal structures in order to make the decisions within GMES Advisory Council efficient.

Subud is one of hundreds mystical movements (aliran kebatinan) that increased significantly in post-war Indonesia. Along with other movements like Sumarah and Pangestu, Subud has attracted people from the West and is now spread in about eighty countries. Despite the fact that Subud leaders deny any relation to the Javanese mystical tradition, it is one of the tasks of this study to show that the g

It has become a necessity to use on-chip inductors in radio frequency integrated circuits. Particularly oscillators need inductors to archive high performance. In LC oscillators the quality factor of the inductor is critical to the phase noise performance, and since the self-resonance frequency of the inductor will limit the operating frequency and tuning range of the oscillator, careful optimizat
