  1. 1. Reliability in performance-based regulation

    Författare :Torbjörn Solver; Lennart Söder; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Performance-Based Regulation; Distribution System; Power System Reliability; Monte Carlo Simulations; Quality of Supply; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In reregulated and restructured electricity markets the production and retail of electricity is conducted on competitive markets, the transmission and distribution on the other hand can be considered as natural monopolies. The financial regulation of Distribution System Operators (DSOs) has in many countries, partly as a consequence of the restructuring in ownership, gone through a major switch in regulatory policy.

  3. 2. Psychological perspectives on performance-based compensation : Implications for work-related and health-related outcomes

    Författare :Alexander Nordgren Selar; Magnus Sverke; Helena Falkenberg; Johnny Hellgren; Tomas Jungert; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; compensation; financial incentives; health; income; job performance; need satisfaction; pay dispersion; performance-based pay; self-determination theory; turnover intention; well-being; work motivation; psykologi; Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : In the past decades, the contributions of individuals have come into greater focus on all levels of employment in many types of organizations. For example, this is manifested through an increased use of individual performance-based pay setting, where individual evaluations of employees’ contributions lead to diversified pay raises among peers.

  4. 3. Performance based concrete mix-design : aggregate and micro mortar optimization applied on self-compacting concrete containing fly ash

    Författare :Sofia Utsi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is dealing with the field of self-compacting concrete (SCC). SCC is supposed to fill the form properly and enclose the reinforcement without any external vibration. The fresh properties of such a concrete are thus essential. SCC was first introduced in Japan in the middle of 1980th. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Promoting Innovation in Transportation Infrastructure Maintenance : Incentives Contracting and Performance Based Specifications

    Författare :Torbjörn Stenbeck; Johan Silfwerbrand; Jan Bröchner; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Knowledge of what action that is needed to drive innovation at a desired speed is in demand in civil engineering and its related maintenance. 1. What measures to stimulate innovation have been tested? 2. How much innovation has been achieved by contracting? 3. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Performance-based design of ventilation systems. Potential and limitations regarding indoor air quality

    Författare :Ragib Kadribegovic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ventilation; prescriptive design; indoor air quality; air cleaning; energy efficiency; performance-based design; recirculation;

    Sammanfattning : It has been increasingly common to design for increased ventilation rates above legislative requirements specified in building codes and other norms as the most optimum way to improve indoor air quality. However, this concept has recently been challenged, for example, by studies demonstrating that the emissions or pollution from used traditional particle filters increases proportionally with air flow through the filter.
