  1. 11. Framework For Structuring Information For Environmental Management Of Industrial Systems

    Författare :Raul Carlson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Life cycle assessment LCA ; data format; characterisation; weighting; information structuring; Design for Environment DfE ; indicator; sustainable development; industrial environmental information systems; database;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses information structuring for reducing cost, facilitate understandability, increase relevance and improve quality of environmental information. The research is based in experience, practical results and syntheses from three different but related research and development projects conducted between 1994 and 2004. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Managing design rationale in the development of product families and related design automation systems

    Författare :Morteza Poorkiany; Fredrik Elgh; Joel Johansson; Jerzy Pokojski; Jönköping University; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design rationale; design automation system; computer-supported engineering design; product development;

    Sammanfattning : As the markets’ needs change rapidly, developing a variety of products that meet customers’ diverse needs is a competitive factor for many manufacturing companies. Development of highly customized products requires following an engineer-to-order business process to allow the products to be modified or adapted to new customers’ specifications, which brings more value to the customer and profit to the company.

  3. 13. Orchestrating the implementation of new practices in product development: Learning through action research at the Volvo Group

    Författare :Azadeh Fazl Mashhadi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; action research; change; transformation; learning alliance; platform for learning; product development practices; learning processes;

    Sammanfattning : Companies in competitive markets are always dealing with responses to changes in the external environment to be able to achieve long-term survival. One such response concerns changes in product development practices. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Industrial Ecology Approaches to Improve Metal Management : Three Modeling Experiments

    Författare :Rajib Sinha; Björn Frostell; Maria Malmström; Amir Rashid; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system dynamics; element flow analysis; industrial ecology; product systems; end-of-life; DPSIR; pressure-based driver-oriented approach; environmental management; Industrial Ecology; Industriell ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : A linear model of consumption − produce-use-dispose − has constantly increased the pressure on the environment in recent decades. There has been a great belief that technology will solve the problem, but in many cases it is only partly contributing to the solution. For a full solution, the root causes of problems need to be identified. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Centralisation of product design and the design process for housing

    Författare :Ulrika Sohlenius; Stellan Lundström; Bengt Hansson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; industrialised housing; design process; central control; quality customer values ; cost and lead times; Business and economics; Ekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : Over many years the housing industry has been criticised concerning its performance related to factors such as quality and cost. Together with the challenge of improving its capability in meeting individual customers’ needs, by means of effective production, this has resulted in a situation where companies look at other industries, such as manufacturing, in order to industrialise their products and processes.
