  1. 6. Security in Physical Distribution - Causes, mitigation measures and an investment model

    Författare :Luca Urciuoli; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; security investments.; security measures in supply chains; causes of security vulnerability; antagonistic risks; security; physical distribution;

    Sammanfattning : Recent statistics and terror events testify an increased vulnerability of distribution networks. Antagonistic threats as theft, counterfeiting, contamination and terror are burdening supply chains with unexpected costs in form of lost cargo, production downtimes, lower customer satisfaction, and higher transportation costs.

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to describe logistics collaboration in supply chains. During the past two decades, a new trend towards integration and collaboration in supply chains has been recognised among researchers as well as among business practitioners. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Modular Innovation in Mature Structures : a study of barriers and drivers between young and established organizations

    Författare :Petter Jönsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The field of interest in this study is modular innovation. This type of innovation replaces an old parr of an existing product or adds new functionality to an existing product. Modular innovations are important to increase the performance of an existing product and retain the competitiveness of the product. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Systems Engineering for Computing Systems at Accelerator based Research Facilities

    Författare :Thilo Friedrich; Martin Törngren; Gerrit Muller; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Systems Engineering; control system; computing system; particle accelerator; research facility; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : Large research facilities are major research enablers for expanding fields in various natural sciences. Traditionally built for physics and astronomy, nowadays fields like life sciences, medicine, molecular sciences and material sciences have become the driving forces, especially for particle accelerator based research facilities.

  7. 10. Modeling Bainite Formation in Steels

    Författare :Lindsay Leach; Annika Borgenstam; John Ågren; Lars Höglund; Hatem Zurob; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This study examines the fundamental aspects of bainite formation in a guided effort to lay a foundation for development of a model capable of predicting bainite formation. In the first part of this study, the tenets of an existing model for growth, developed by Zener and later modified by Hillert are examined. LÄS MER
