Abstract:
Master of Science<br>Department of Civil Engineering<br>Hani Melhem<br>Researchers have been compiling lists of key factors the presence or absence of which have determined the success or failure of projects. Early researches of critical success factors were largely theory based; subsequent researches employed the use of statistics and continuously refined methods like neural network and the analytical hierarchy process. Over the passage of time, the focus has narrowed down from broad generalization of ‘projects’ to ‘project classes’. The thesis can be broadly divided into three components.

Abstract:
Grid connected inverter requires accurate and appropriate sizing which depends on the temperature, inverter operating efficiency, performance ratio, annual system yield and solar radiation characteristics. The aim of this study was to design and size for optimum sizing factor for grid connected inverter. The main component to be considered in any photovoltaic grid connected system is the inverter since the output depends on the inverter sizing ratio, therefore optimal sizing factor was designed by considering factors that affects inverter sizing such as temperature, irradiance and the location

Abstract:
An efficient management of organic fertilizers (here animal manure and digestate) is of large concern in today´s agriculture. When evaluating the efficiency of alternative management systems, differences in nutrient losses (emissions) must be taken into consideration. Those can be rather specific for e.g. a geographical region and agricultural system. This literature study aimed at identifying emission factors and uncertainty ranges, that are relevant to use in comparative system studies of different organic fertilizer management systems in South Swedish climate.

Objective: There is a general agreement that physical activity (PA) has a beneficial effect on health and those who are more active have a reduced risk of developing many chronic diseases, such as coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the amount, type and intensity of PA deemed to be sufficient to achieve good health remains unclear. Different methods have been used to categorise activity behaviour, but the level of agreement, consistency and coherence between methods and how this might influence their relationship with CHD risk factors and estimated CHD (eCHD) risk are poorly understood.
