  1. 1. Borrowing the Bat's Ear for Automation - Ultrasonic Measurements in an Industrial Environment

    Författare :Gunnar Lindstedt; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatiska system; control engineering; robotics; Automation; electrostatic transducer; piezoelectric transducer; echolocation; bat; automation; localization; recognition; geometry; distance; measurement; ultrasound; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This work focuses on measurement principles based on ultrasound for applications in industrial automation. The measurements made are of geometric nature. The methods used are when possible based on experience and/or inspiration from the study of bats. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Asymmetry and the moderating effects of formal institutional distance on the relationship between cultural distance and performance of foreign subsidiaries in Latin America

    Författare :Henrique Correa da Cunha; Svante Andersson; Mohamed Amal; Mikael Hilmersson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Asymmetry; institutional distance; cultural distance; subsidiary; performance; Latin America;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates how Cultural and Formal Institutional distances and their interaction affect the performance of multinational foreign subsidiaries in Latin America. It is shown that using Kogut and Singh (1988) index or attributing the positive and negative signals to distances in opposite directions fail to capture asymmetric effects as it assumes either symmetry or opposing symmetry.

  4. 3. Inductive measurement of narrow gaps for high precision welding of square butt joints

    Författare :Edvard Svenman; Anna-Karin Christiansson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Eddy current; Seam tracking; Measurement; Laser beam welding; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : A recent method in aero engine production is to fabricate components from smaller pieces, rather than machining them from large castings. This has made laser beam welding popular, offering high precision with low heat input and distortion, but also high productivity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Supply Chain Integration through Performance Measurement

    Författare :Stefan Holmberg; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Produktionsteknik; integration; supply chain; Production technology; performance measurement system; Teknik; Technological sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This Ph.D. thesis is about how the design of measurement systems may influence-or even drive-the integration of firms in supply chains, and is based on research presented in my licentiate thesisR. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Assessment of active commuting behaviour : walking and bicycling in Greater Stockholm

    Författare :Erik Stigell; Peter Schantz; Andreas Nilsson; Maria Hagströmer; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; walking; cycling; commuting; validity; reproducibility; distance; duration; velocity; frequency; seasonality; Sports; Idrott; Samhällsvetenskap Humaniora; Social Sciences Humanities; Sports Science;

    Sammanfattning : Walking and bicycling to work, active commuting, can contribute to sustainable mobility and provide regular health-enhancing physical activity for individuals. Our knowledge of active commuting behaviours in general and in different mode and gender groups in particular is limited. LÄS MER
