1. 26. Dependability analysis of military aircraft fleet performance in a lifecycle perspective

   Författare :Jan Block; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

   Sammanfattning : Today's highly advanced technological flying platforms, such as aircraft, helicopters and Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs), are characterised by a high degree of complexity. Simultaneously, they are used in different operational and mission profiles, and also in multiple operational environments and geographical settings. LÄS MER

3. 27. Fuel and fly: adaptations to endurance exercise in migrating birds

   Författare :Anders Kvist; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water balance; flight power; phenotypic flexibility; energy assimilation; basal metabolism; Animal ecology; Djurekologi;

   Sammanfattning : Birds on migration alternate between consuming fuel stores during flights and accumulating fuel stores during stopovers. This thesis highlights some of the ways in which migrating birds have adapted to the different demands of fuelling and flight. Most of the time on migration is spent at stopover sites accumulating fuel stores. LÄS MER

4. 28. Creating Safety in Air Traffic Control

   Författare :Johan M. Sanne; Boel Berner; Jane Summerton; Dave Randall; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Risk; safety; air traffic control; ethnography; schemes; rules; resources; cognitive; social; interaction; coordination; socio-technical systems; Social anthropology ethnography; Socialantrolopologi etnografi;

   Sammanfattning : Is flying safe? Indeed it is -- statistics tell us that it is far more dangerous to drive a car or take the train. But flight safety does not just happen. Instead, as it is argued in this book, it is created by a well-developed air traffic control system that continues to be highly effective -- despite increasing volumes of traffic. LÄS MER

5. 29. Correlation spectroscopy with epitaxial quantum dots : Single-photons alone in the dark

   Författare :Lucas Schweickert; Val Zwiller; Klaus D. Jöns; Richard J. Warburton; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum dots; single--photons; indistinguishability; entanglement; Optik och fotonik; Optics and Photonics;

   Sammanfattning : The advent of quantum computation promises exciting advances, not only in fields like medicine and metrology, but many industries that rely on parameter-heavy calculations or simulation of molecular interaction. At the same time Shor's algorithm for quantum computers presents a threat to current asymmetric encryption protocols used in everyday communication. LÄS MER

7. 30. Disruption of moth mating behaviour by olfactory and auditory cues

   Författare :Glenn Svensson; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Djurekologi; ultrasound; predation risk; selection; heritability; flight tunnel; harmonic radar; pest control; mating disruption; pheromone communication; Pyralidae; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae; Animal ecology;

   Sammanfattning : The impact of olfactory and auditory cues on the mating behaviour in two species of moths, Agrotis segetum (Noctuidae) and Plodia interpunctella (Pyralidae), was investigated to evaluate their potential use in integrated pest management. The flight behaviour of male A. LÄS MER
