1. Engineering lives : Technology, time and space in a male-centred world
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with engineers. It is an ethnographic study of the life organisation for seventeen engineers with Master's degrees working at two different workplaces, Automobile Inc. and Microchips Inc. The study is based on participant observation and life-history interviews. LÄS MER
2. Functional Fiber Based Materials for Microsystem Applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the integration of functional electrospun micro- and nanofiber based materials in two fields of microsystem technology: fibrous scaffolds as cell culture substrates and fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites as thermal interface materials (TIMs).Electrospun structures have been found to carry great potential as biomimicking microenvironments for future tissue engineering and cell culture applications.

3. Integrated structural and construction engineering – A study of project team performance in Swedish bridge design
Sammanfattning : The Swedish Transport Administration (STA) ambitiously strives to increase the level of productivity and innovation within its operations while meeting and surpassing national sustainability objectives. In this effort, the STA has concluded that climate gas emissions from construction, operation, and maintenance of the infrastructure must be reduced for Sweden to maintain its position as a pioneer and to reach both national and global climate goals.

4. Säkerhetskultur i Östersjöfart : En studie kring sjösäkerhet, säkerhetskultur och arbetsvillkor ombord på fartyg som trafikerar Östersjön
Sammanfattning : Föreliggande avhandlings centrala syfte är att undersöka säkerhetskultur ombord i fartyg vilka trafikerar Östersjön. Genomgående för fartyg i Östersjöfart är täta hamnanlöp, kustnära resor, trafik i tätt trafikerade områden samt små besättningar. Tidigare forskning antyder att det kan finnas ett systemfel i sjöfarten. LÄS MER
5. Affordable identification and modelling of uncertain design specifications when introducing new technologies in space applications
Sammanfattning : When introducing new technologies in space products, both the uncertainties regarding technology feasibility and the way in which the technology affects the product development process hinder the early establishment of appropriate engineering specifications. Failing to establish product specifications during conceptual stages leads to problems discovered during later phases of the product development process, when design and process changes are the most expensive.
