  1. 6. Application of Differential Geometry to Elasticity and Corresponding Discrete Models

    Författare :Nina Lautersztajn-S.; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mechanical systems; differential geometry; isoparametric four-node elements; Lie groups; non-linear elasticity; elasticity; finite element method;

    Sammanfattning : The amazing development in technology and industry during the last half of the twentieth century has opened totally new research fields. One of them is computational mechanics. Suddenly very complex, three-dimensional nonlinear engineering problems could be solved as a consequence of explosive advances in computers and numerical schemes. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Deliberation, against all odds? : The critical prospects of mini-publics

    Författare :Zohreh Khoban; Nils Hertting; Markus Holdo; Olle Folke; Kaisa Herne; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, the theory of deliberative democracy has encountered multiple challenges. In this thesis, I explore the prospects of a particular type of deliberative democratic institution – deliberative mini-publics – in three essays. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Respect for People : Developing alternative understandings and relationships to ethics, leadership, and culture in Lean implementations

    Nyckelord :Culture; Developmental Leadership; Ethics; Leadership; Lean Management; Real Lean; Respect; Respect for people; Virtue ethics; Dygdeetik; Etik; Kultur; Ledarskap; Lean Management; Respekt; Respekt för männskan; Utvecklande Ledarskap; Äkta Lean; Engineering Science with specialization in industrial engineering and management; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot industriell teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Successful Lean implementation is a combination of both technology and culture, using bothkey principles of continuous improvement (CI) and respect for people (RFP). However, manyorganizations fail to implement Lean and critical factors in this failure are leadership, cultureand the lack of RFP. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Design Syntactics: A Functional Approach to Visual Product Form Theory, Models, and Methods

    Författare :Anders Warell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product semantics; engineering design; industrial design; product form; design methodology; visual design aesthetics; design syntactics; functionality; interdisciplinary design; form design development;

    Sammanfattning : In line with the increasing importance of high quality appearance and aesthetic appeal in the design of consumer products, there is a growing need for enhanced understanding and ability to handle visual product form in industrial product development. In an approach for meeting that need, this thesis concerns the nature and development of visual design aesthetics in product form design. LÄS MER

  5. 10. The development and use of product platforms in single-family industrialized house building

    Författare :Djordje Popovic; Fredrik Elgh; Tobias Schauerte; Carin Rösiö; Detlef Heck; Jönköping University; []
