    Sammanfattning : The transportation industry landscape is going through a massive transformation due to trends such as autonomous and electrified vehicles. The electrification trend has already started to display its ample influence on the automotive industry. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Technical cost modelling and efficient design of lightweight composites in structural applications

    Författare :Mathilda Karlsson Hagnell; Malin Åkermo; Dan Zenkert; Gerhard Ziegmann; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technical cost modelling; composite materials; carbon fibre; lightweight design; optimization; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : A lightweight transport design reduces fuel costs and emissions and can be achieved through the use of fibre-reinforced composite materials. Although lightweight, the composite raw material can be expensive and the sequential component production challenging and costly. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Performance-based costing as decision support for development of discrete part production : Linking performance, production costs and sustainability

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production cost; PERFORMANCE; decision support; manufacturing; production development; performance-based costing; sustainability; organizational learning; Production cost; Performance; Decision support; Manufacturing; Production development; performance-based costing; Sustainability; Organizational learning;

    Sammanfattning : In today’s global market, the industry is struggling every day to make the “correct decisions”. Decisions concerning production can range from smaller improvements to choice tool or equipment investments to relocation of entire production facilities. LÄS MER

  4. 14. On conceptual development of modular products - Development of supporting tools for the modularisation process

    Författare :Roger Stake; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Conceptual product development; modular products; product families; module drivers; tools;

    Sammanfattning : The research work detailed in this dissertation relates tothe development of modular products and product families.Historically, product variants have been developed more or lessindependently; but in order to stay competitive in today’sbusiness environment where globalisation and explosion ofvariety are some of the buzzwords, products should be developedas a product family.

  5. 15. Multi-Resistance Plasmids : Fitness Costs, Dynamics and Evolution

    Författare :Fredrika Rajer; Linus Sandegren; Pål Jarle Johnsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multi-resistance plasmids; evolution; fitness cost; dynamics; escherichia coli; ESBL; gene amplification; β-lactamase inhibitor; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is an escalating problem, not only due to less desirable treatment options and outcome, but also due to the economic burden to health care caused by resistant pathogens. Since the process of developing new antibiotics is slow, we need to carefully consider the usage of the antibiotics still available. LÄS MER
