  3. 2. Temporality in the Interaction Design of Information Systems

    Författare :Anna Gryszkiewicz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; temporality; Crisis management; information systems; interaction design; disaster management; human-computer interaction; time;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACTThis thesis contributes with two tools that can be used by designers and researchers in exploring how to address time in the design of crisis response and management information systems. By crisis management information system is here meant information systems used by local and regional authorities when responding to events that may disturb important societal functions, such as: floods, storms, terror attacks, and spreading of infectious diseases.

  4. 3. A numerical model to simulate short-term beach and dune evolution

    Författare :Jie Zhang; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Numerical model; cross-shore transport; beach profile change; dune erosion; offshore mound; storms;

    Sammanfattning : Sediment transport in the cross-shore (CS) and associated changes in the beach profile, especially during storms, have been topics of widespread concern. Since storms are often accompanied by high water levels and large waves, large quantities of sand from the beach and the dune are typically transported offshore, leading to severe beach and dune erosion, which threatens the integrity of buildings and infrastructure near the coast.

  5. 4. New Forms of Collaboration in Emergency Response Systems : A framework for participatory design of information systems

    Författare :Kayvan Yousefi Mojir; Sofie P Pilemalm; Stefan Holgersson; Björn JE Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : An emergency response systems (ERS) is usually responsible for delivering essential services to save lives and minimise environmental damage in case of small, frequent or large-scale emergencies. The ongoing global financial crisis, lack of professional resources, public sector cuts and rising public expectations are some of the challenges ERSs currently are facing. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Experimental Measurement of Lateral Force in a Submerged Single Heaving Buoy Wave Energy Converter

    Författare :Andrej Savin; Mats Leijon; Magnus Karlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave energy converter; Tight mooring system; Offshore measurement; Strain gauge; Estimation of stress; Lateral force; Inclination angle; Snatch load; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : The search for new solutions for the generation of energy is becoming more and more important for our future. Big arguments and disagreements on e.g. the questions of gas transport or the dependence on energy supplied by other countries raise demands on the development of new forms of alternative energy resources.
