Window airing in new and existing multi-family dwellings
New and renovated buildings are characterized by good air quality and the residents’ well-being via their freedom to control an increased air exchange through airing.Today, however...
Phase Change Material to increase the thermal inertia of wooden buildings
The thermal inertia of buildings allows opportunities to store energy and thus reduce both energy use and peak power problems. Under specific conditions, the accumulated energy in...
Multi-fidelity methods for design and evaluation of wind-powered vessels
Using the wind to propel cargo ships has in recent years been proposed as an effective measure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from maritime transports.Some technologies are alr...
Hydrogen-based ferry operations
Using hydrogen as an energy carrier has been known since long ago. However, the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier in a large ferry has so far not been tried in practice.With thi...
EIP – Energy efficient and Intelligent lighting in the Public secto
The project focuses on public lighting installations, which accounts for approximately half of the energy consumption for lighting in Sweden and how those installations in practice...
Preparedness for epidemics and outbreaks
The general purpose is to establish a novel network that can work towards sustainable zoonotic viral diagnostics and surveillance in Rwanda.Specifically we aim to (1) establish a n...
Dynamic Properties of 3D RRAM Memory Elements for In-Memory and Neuromorphic Computation
Integration of memory and logic is key to reduce power consumption in machine learning and neural network applications.Data transfer between storage and computation units costs ene...
Stability for C*-algebras and groups
This project focuses on stability problems arising in the areas of Operator Algebras, Group Theory, and Quantum InformationTheory.In the area of Operator Algebras stability techniq...
Cooperative motion in dense suspensions, granular matter, and colloidal crystals
Dense particle flows are common and of particular importance for many processes in both geological and industrial systems.While particles flow easy at dilute conditions they will a...
The Physiology of Thermogenesis: acute and adaptive processes in brown adipose tissue
Thermogenesis is the use of energy with the purpose of only producing heat, a wasteful process that Nature would normally avoid. Nonetheless, through developing the unique process...
How does matter matter? Gendered, emotional and material entanglements in student-teacher-material learning
Experimental activities are at the core of learning in science and technology. Therefore, such activities are included as an important and established part of the education and cur...
WOOD for HEALTH

ForestMap: The next generation of forest maps - adapting a Nordic success story across the globe
Purpose and goal:The aim is to promote the societal values of forest use by using remote sensing, crowdsourcing and new AI methods to produce forest maps globally. In the project,...
New Wine in Old Bottles or Old Wine in New Bottles. The establishment of the multidisciplinary field of didactics of the mother tongue school subject
Several Swedish reforms in the early 2000s had the goal of laying a more solid research foundation for teacher education.This project aims to investigate how mechanisms such as fun...
Autologous cord blood cells transplantation to preterm infants to treat brain damage and prevent neurodevelopmental disorders
Preterm birth is a global public health problem affecting one out of ten live births world wide.A large number of preterm infants survive with white matter injury which leads to mo...
Can the use of a next generation partograph based on WHO’s latest intrapartum care recommendations improve neonatal outcomes? A stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial (PICRINO))
The overall aim of the proposed research is to evaluate the impact of the use of two different guidelines for monitoring labor progress, the World Health Organization (WHO) Labour...
Pivmecillinam in the treatment of urinary tract infections caused by ESBL-producing bacteria - a randomized study
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat to public health causing treatment failure and complications for the patients and higher costs for health care.The situation is particularly...
A randomised study for the comparison of standardised and extended ECG investigation post stroke or TIA for atrial fibrillation detection and stroke prevention - AF SPICE
Stroke is one of the leading causes behind death and permanent disability in adults. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinical arrhythmia and its prevalence is steeply i...
Aortic compression trial (ACT) - a randomized controlled trial to reduce blood loss at cesarean section
The ACT trial investigates if manual external aortic compression is an effective and acceptable preventive measure to reduce severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in cesarean section....
