The purpose of the thesis is to examine if the Swedish Central Bank, the Riksbank, reacts to changes in asset prices and the strength of the currency when regulating the short term interest rate. The application of backward- and forward-looking Taylor rules will help us evaluate the outcome of the Riksbank’s inflation forecast. The thesis is based on the Taylor rule, augmented with the deviation o

Swedish office buildings of the 60’s present at least 27% higher heating demand than from the current standards foreseen. This underlines their need for energy renovation. Meanwhile, office buildings are occupied during daytime, thus internal and solar gains are in phase. Consequently, such buildings could experience overheating problems. A seasonal adaptable envelope, such as a ventilated double

Varför sätter vi i Sverige de flesta solcellerna på tak? Att producera el från solceller på tak är något som blir allt vanligare i Sverige. Men hur kostnadseffektivt är det att placera solceller på tak? Ett tak har tyvärr inte alltid en optimal vinkel mot solen vilket minskar el-produktionen. I länder som Rumänien och Bulgarien produceras nästan all solel från anläggningar på marken, vilket myckThe electricity produced from photovoltaics represents only a small fraction of the total electricity consumption in Sweden, but the installed capacity in Sweden doubled for the fourth year in a row in 2014. If this trend continues it is both interesting and important to discuss where we want to see PV systems in our future society. Looking at the market share of different types of PV systems in o

De utmaningar som dagens och kommande generationer står inför, till följd av klimatförändringarnas konsekvenser, har inga motsvarigheter i historien. Därför utmanas vårt tänkande och agerande från grunden. Som en följd av detta finns en rörelse som försöker påverka politiken och samhället i en mer hållbar riktning: klimataktivisterna. I oktober 2024 friades en klimataktivist av Stockholms tingsrätThe challenges faced by current and future generations as a result of the impacts of climate change are unprecedented.

eLSDs (Electronically controlled Limited Slip Differentials) are showing a more popular trend in the passenger vehicle industry. Haldex Traction in Landskrona, mostly famous for their limited slip couplings for AWD (all wheel driven) vehicles, has now started to develop a differential coupling for a FWD (front wheel driven) car. The control of an eLSD in a FWD car affects the traction capability a

Idiomatic expressions are abundant in the Japanese language. Probably more so than any other (although there are no official records of this; the opinions seem to differ between Mandarin, French, English and Japanese, among others). And among these idioms, there is one word that is more common than all the others. So common in fact, that it has inspired the conception of several books and articles

Den globala klimatförändingen är vår tids största utmaning och det största miljömässiga, sociala och ekonomiska hotet världen över. Genom att använda husdjursgödsel för produktion av förnyelsebar energi i form av biogas kan utsläppen av västhusgaser minskas, samtidigt som lokala resurser utnyttjas på ett hållbart sätt. Norge har som nationellt mål att 30 % av husdjurgödseln ska användas till produClimate change because of increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is widely recognized and is our times biggest environmental, social and economical threat worldwide.

Norway has a national goal to pro

Hedersbegreppet finns på något sätt inom alla kulturer. Mot slutet av 1990-talet uppmärksammades hedersproblematiken runt om i västvärlden. I början av 2000-talet slog Sverige av hedersproblematiken, när tre flickor mördades. Alla tre flickor hade träffat svenska killar som de börjat umgås med, något som familjen och släkten ansåg hade skämt ut familjen och som resulterade i att de mördades. Uppsa

Conservation genomics is a rapidly growing subdiscipline of conservation biology that uses genome-wide information to inform management of biodiversity at all levels. Such efforts typically focus on species or systems of conservation interest, but rarely consider associated microbes. At least three major approaches have been used to study how microorganisms broadly contribute to conservation areas

It is well known that reformulating the original problem can be crucial for the performance of mixed-integer programming (MIP) solvers. To ensure correctness, all transformations must preserve the feasibility status and optimal value of the problem, but there is currently no established methodology to express and verify the equivalence of two mixed-integer programs. In this work, we take a first s
