    Sammanfattning : The title of this thesis is Business as usual? Doing gender equality in Swedish forestry work organizations and while the latter part, the subtitle, is rather self-explanatory, the former part can be read in different ways. The aim of the thesis is to increase the understanding of the doing of gender equality in the male dominated work organizations of the Swedish forestry sector, and thereby contribute both theoretical and empirical understanding regarding how doing gender equality in the forestry sector relates both to notions of gender and notions of organizations.

  2. 2. Ash Products for Nutrient Recycling in Forestry : Leaching and Drying Characteristics

    Författare :Peter Mellbo; Tommy Claesson; Sirkku Sarenbo; Hans Samuelsson; Högskolan i Kalmar; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Ash products; Wood ash; Leaching; Drying; Nutrient; ; Sustainable forestry; Forestry; Skogsskötsel; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Sammanfattning : As the demand for carbon dioxide neutral energy sources increases, forestry becomes more intensive. Entire trees are removed from the felling sites threatening the nutrient balance of the forest soils. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Automation in forestry : development of unmanned forwarders

    Författare :Ola Ringdahl; Thomas Hellström; Tomas Nordfjell; Arto Visala; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Forest engineering; Skogsteknik; computer and systems sciences; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : For the last 50 year, forestry operations have become more and more mechanized. In modern forestry in Europe two machines are typically used; a harvester that fells, debranches and cross-cuts the trees into logs and a forwarder that transports them to the nearest road. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Towards semi-automation of forestry cranes : automated trajectory planning and active vibration damping

    Författare :Szabolcs Fodor; Leonid Freidovich; Carlos Vázquez; Anton Shiriaev; Torben Ole Andersen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forestry; forwarder cranes; semi-automation; slewing actuator; automated trajectory planning; oscillations; inner boom actuator; active vibration damping; frequency estimation; input shaping control technique; H2-optimal control;

    Sammanfattning : Forests represent one of the biggest terrestrial ecosystems of Earth, that can produce important raw renewable materials such as wood with the help of sun, air and water. To efficiently extract these raw materials, the tree harvesting process is highly mechanized in developed countries, meaning that advanced forestry machines are continuously used to fell, to process and to transport the logs and biomass obtained from the forests.

  5. 5. Managing Work at Several Places : Understanding Nomadic Practices in Student Groups

    Författare :Chiara Rossitto; Kerstin Severinson-Eklundh; Teresa Cerratto-Pargman; John McCarthy; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Computer-Supported Cooperative Work; Mobility; Space and Place; Field Studies; Design Process; Area technology; Areell teknik; Technology and social change; Teknik och social förändring; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Within Swedish universities students are often required to work in groups to collaborate on projects or to write essays. A salient feature characterizing this type of work is the lack of a stable and fixed location wherein project- related activities can be carried out and accomplished. LÄS MER
