  1. 21. Essays on behavioural economics and cost overuns

    Författare :Fredrik Brunes; Hans Lind; Göran Lindahl; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation consists of five essays, four on cost overruns and one on behavioral economics witha focus on real estate investments. The main aim of the thesis was to answer the questions:• Is it common with cost overruns in infrastructure projects?• What explains the cost overruns?• What can be done to prevent cost overruns?This thesis contributes to the current state of knowledge within the field:• It is yet another evidence that cost overruns are a significant problem.

  3. 22. Supply network configuration for small-series apparel production in high-cost contexts : Opportunities and challenges from selected EU countries

    Författare :Sara Harper; Rudrajeet Pal; Vijay Kumar; Liz Barnes; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; high-cost contexts; customization; supply network configuration; priorities; challenges; paradox theory; högkostnadssammanhang; kundanpassning; konfiguration av försörjningsnätverk; prioriteringar; utmaningar; paradoxteori; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Sammanfattning : In high-cost textile and apparel industry contexts, local and small-series production models (demand-driven/on-demand) are increasingly relevant due to various pressures, including global risks, and demands to reduce overproduction for profitability and environmental sustainability. However, understanding how such reconfigurations impact supply chains more broadly, and what are the associated implementation challenges, is required. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Effects of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy on Perivascular Groin Infections after Vascular Surgery. Wound Healing, Cost-Effectiveness and Patient-Reported Outcome

    Författare :Christina Monsen; Vaskulära sjukdomar - kliniska studier; []
    Nyckelord :Negative Pressure Wound Therapy NPWT ; Vacuum Assisted Closure; Surgical site infections; Groin; Quality of Life; Pain; Resource use; Cost-effectiveness; Content Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) in the groin after vascular surgery is common and deep perivascular infection leads to long periods of hospitalization, sometimes to amputation and/or death. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is increasingly used for treating wounds such as deep perivascular groin infections after vascular surgery, but there is no scientific evidence supporting its benefit over traditional wound therapy.

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Transportation, together with transportation planning for goods, provides good conditions for economic growth and is a natural part of modern society. However, transportation has negative side effects, including emissions and traffic congestion. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Controllability of Complex Networks at Minimum Cost

    Författare :Gustav Lindmark; Claudio Altafini; Anders Helmersson; Franco Garofalo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The control-theoretic notion of controllability captures the ability to guide a system toward a desired state with a suitable choice of inputs. Controllability of complex networks such as traffic networks, gene regulatory networks, power grids etc. can for instance enable efficient operation or entirely new applicative possibilities. LÄS MER
