  1. 21. Hacking for Sustainability

    Författare :Jorge Luis Zapico Lamela; Marko Turpeinen; Brandt Nils; Elaine Huang; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : ICT for Sustainability is a growing research area looking at the potential of information and communication technologies for contributing to sustainability. The existing work in this area can be grouped in four main categories: The optimization of existing systems using ICT, the dematerialization of cultural assets and presence, the use of technology for behavioral change, and the support of sustainability practice and research.

    Sammanfattning : Designing mechatronic systems is challenging. Even so, mechatronicproducts are regarded as one of the most important means in order toinnovate in many large industries, e.g. automobile and aerospace. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Innovation Systems for Sustainability : An empirical analysis of the role of domestic and Swedish MNCs inBrazil's innovation system

    Författare :Rita Santos Senise; Folke Snickars; Walter Leal; Linda Kamp; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Innovation Systems; Technological Change; Environmental Sustainability; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur; Järnvägsgruppen - Infrastruktur;

    Sammanfattning : The intellectual roots of the innovation system (IS) approach lie in attempts tounderstand the complexities of interactive relations in the innovation process. Thisthesis departs from the systemic view that ISs rest on a co-evolutionary process, inwhich on the one hand technical and economic spheres interact with policies andinstitutions, and, on the other, those spheres affect the natural environment.

    Sammanfattning : The transition from conventional cast concrete to 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) marks a paradigm shift by directly depositing fresh concrete layer upon layer according to a digital model without the need for a formwork. This technology offers the possibility of achieving innovative and complex geometries in an automated process. LÄS MER
