1. Cost efficency of nonresponse rate reduction efforts : an evaluation approach
Sammanfattning : Nonresponse, the failure to obtain complete measurement on all sample elements, is an increasing problem in sample surveys. Efforts to reduce the nonresponse rate are expensive and their effect may not be as desired. LÄS MER
2. The Use of Laboratory Analyses in Sweden : Quality and Cost-Effectiveness in Test Utilization
Sammanfattning : Laboratory analyses, essential in screening, diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of disease, are indispensable in health care, but appropriate utilization is intricate. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the use of laboratory tests in Sweden with the objective to evaluate and optimize test utilization. LÄS MER
3. Configuration Design of a High Performance and Responsive Manufacturing System : Modeling and Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Configuring and reconfiguring a manufacturing system is presented as an issue with increasing importance due to higher frequency of system configuration or major reconfigurations to accommodate new set of requirements and/or the need to configure the system to make it usable across generations of products or product families. This research has focused in the modeling, evaluation and selection decisions which involves multiple, incommensurate and conflicting objectives. LÄS MER
4. Cost Optimization of Aircraft Structures
Sammanfattning : Composite structures can lower the weight of an airliner significantly. Due to the higher process complexity and the high material cost, however, the low weight often comes with a significant increase in production cost. The application of cost-effective design strategies is one mean to meet this challenge. LÄS MER
5. Efficiency Improvements in Waste-to-Energy Combustion Processes : Method Development and Evaluation
Sammanfattning : is the energy recovery method. The electrical efficiency of this technology, however, is generally low when compared with other solid fuel-fired combustion plants as a result of low steam properties. Furthermore, there is lack of efficient methods to evaluate the performance of this system. LÄS MER
