  1. 1. Constructing Consumer Knowledge in Market Research : An Ethnography of Epistemics

    Författare :Johan Nilsson; Claes-Fredrik Helgesson; Lotta Björklund Larsen; Franck Cochoy; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; market research; commissioned knowledge production; epistemics; Sweden; marketing; ESOMAR; ethnography; epistemography; epistemic culture.; marknadsundersökningar; uppdragsbaserad kunskapsproduktion; det epistemiska; marknadsföring; ESOMAR; etnografi; epistemografi; kunskapskultur;

    Sammanfattning : Market research pervades society. It is an endeavour that connects marketing practice with methods similar to social science. Further, market research results appear as knowledge produced to inform recipients towards making productive business decisions and as a commodity sold to commissioning clients. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Improving the Dynamic Design Philosophy of High-Speed Railway Bridges Using Reliability-Based Methods

    Författare :Reza Allahvirdizadeh; Raid Karoumi; Andreas Andersson; Christoph Adam; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-speed railway bridges; Bridge dynamics; Running safety; Passenger comfort; Structural reliability; Surrogate models; Active learning; Reliability-based design optimization; Partial safety calibration; Epistemic uncertainties; Höghastighetsjärnvägsbroar; Brodynamik; Trafiksäkerhet; Passagerarkomfort; Konstruktioners tillförlitlighet; Surrogatmodeller; Aktivt lärande; Tillförlitlighetsbaserad optimering; Kalibrering av partialkoefficienter; Epistemiska osäkerheter; Bro- och stålbyggnad; Structural Engineering and Bridges;

    Sammanfattning : Modern railway infrastructures, especially bridges, are exposed to significant vibrations with potential safety implications. In this context, previous studies have shown the inconsistency and inadequacy of some conventional design methods necessitaing them to be improved. The assessment of safety inherently deals with uncertainties. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Evolutionary Materialism: Towards a Theory of Anticipatory Adaptive Assemblages

    Författare :Magnus Larsson; Magnus Wålinder; Andreas Falk; Olga Popovic Larsen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Building materials; multi-objective optimisation; genetic algorithms; evolutionary architecture; material phase transitions; generative LCA; parametric epistemic things; presilience; postponism; anticipation; adaptation; simulation; Grasshopper; Byggnadsmaterial; flermålsop2mering; gene2ska algoritmer; evolu2onär arkitektur; materialbaserade fasövergångar; genera2v LCA; parametriska epistemiska 2ng; presiliens; postponism; antecipa2on; adap2on; simulering; Grasshopper; Building Materials; Byggnadsmaterial;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is an investigation into how meta-heuristic multi-objective optimisation processes (genetic algorithms driven by evolutionary solvers) can bring about materials-related advantages in architectural performance. It redefines the architect’s and engineer’s role from being designers of a singular space or structure to being designers of entire species of spaces, and discusses a particular method – anticipatory adaptive assemblages (AAA) – that allows such processes to produce many generations of design iterations that eventually yield individuals optimised for a set of predefined objectives.

  5. 4. Visualizing the abyss of time : Students’ interpretation of visualized deep evolutionary time

    Författare :Jörgen Stenlund; Konrad Schönborn; Lena Tibell; Gunnar Höst; Camillia Matuk; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Deep evolutionary time; Visualization; Evolution; Science Education; Djup evolutionär tid; Visualiseringar; Naturvetenskapernas didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : The immense time scales involved in Deep evolutionary time (DET) is a threshold concept in biology and interpreting temporal aspects of DET is demanding. DET is communicated through various visualizations that include static two-dimensional representations, low interactivity animations, as well as high interactivity interfaces. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Interpretation and Translation of Global Ideas into Local Practices : A Study of the Internationalisation of Higher Education in Mozambique

    Författare :Charnaldo Jaime Ndaipa; Lars Geschwind; Kristina Edström; Jens Jungblut; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Decolonisation; internationalisation of higher education; internationalisation of the curriculum; North–South partnerships; translation.; Descolonização; internacionalização do ensino superior; internacionalização do currículo; parcerias Norte-Sul; tradução.; Avkolonisering; internationalisering av högre utbildning; internationalisering av läroplanen; Nord-Syd-partnerskap; översättning.; Teknik och lärande; Technology and Learning;

    Sammanfattning : Internationalisation and its components, such as curriculum internationalisation and international partnerships, have evolved over time in the context of higher education. In this thesis, such terminologies are addressed as global ideas of internationalisation because internationalisation is described as a global, intentional and inclusive concept in higher education, even though it is understood to have been pursued under coercion and contestation in Africa and elsewhere.
