  1. 1. Communication technology and travel demand models

    Författare :Maria Börjesson; Infrastruktur KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Travel survey; Transport mode; Telecommuting; Mathematical model; Motivation; 11 Road: Personal transport; 11 Road: Personal transport;

    Sammanfattning : Transportation planners have traditionally focused on physical travel only, and disregarded the fact that other modes of communication may influence travel demand. However, modern telecommunications are rapidly increasing the accessibility to activities that previously only could be reached by physical transportation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Adaptive Concatenated Coding for Wireless Real-Time Communications

    Författare :Elisabeth Uhlemann; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Incremental redundancy hybrid ARQ; Multiple concatenated codes; Iterative decoding; Rate compatible punctured codes; Union bounds; EXIT charts; Convergence analysis; Wireless real-time communication; Quality of service; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis is to improve the performance of real-time communication overa wireless channel, by means of specifically tailored channel coding. The deadlinedependent coding (DDC) communication protocol presented here lets the timeliness and thereliability of the delivered information constitute quality of service (QoS) parametersrequested by the application.

  3. 3. VALUE CO-CREATION FOR SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT SERVICE SYSTEM DESIGN : OPPORTUNITY FOR GLOBAL MANUFACTURING COMPANIES

    Författare :Yan Zhang; Tobias Larsson; Andreas Larsson; Kent R Johansson; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Product-Service System; Manufacturing company; Innovation Framework; PSS design; Value Co-creation; Case study; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : There is a gradually spreading servitization trend that is forcing industrial manufacturing companies acting in the global market to rethink their business. Manufacturing companies that were traditionally perceived as product-centered, are today increasingly influenced by a service-oriented theory, which claims that manufacturing companies are driven to shift their business focus towards a strategy where customer-perceived value is in the spotlight, and where products are bundled with services to offer Product-Service Systems (PSS).

  4. 4. Computational problem solving in university physics education : Students’ beliefs, knowledge, and motivation

    Författare :Madelen Bodin; Mikael Winberg; Diane Grayson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; physics education; computational physics; simulation; beliefs; motivation; mental models; network analysis; didactics of physics; fysikdidaktik;

    Sammanfattning : Solving physics problem in university physics education with a computational approach requires knowledge and skills in several domains, for example, physics, mathematics, programming, and modelling. These competences are in turn related to students' beliefs about these domains as well as about learning, and their motivation to learn. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Synthesis, Electrophoretic Deposition, and Characterization of Nanostructured Thermoelectric Materials

    Författare :Hazal Batili; Muhammet Toprak; Oliver Fenwick; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermoelectric; Bismuth telluride; Antimony telluride; Hydrothermal synthesis; Thermolysis; Polyol; Electrophoretic deposition; EPD; Seebeck coefficient; Thermoelectric power factor; Colloidal stabilization; Material and Nano Physics; Material- och nanofysik;

    Sammanfattning : The world’s increasing demand for energy and supplying this energy dominantlyfrom fossil fuels has a major impact on global climate change. Theenergy crisis has gotten more alarming in the recent years which increasedthe motivation for replacing fossil fuels with greener routes for energy harvest. LÄS MER
