    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mass customization; Modularization; Platform architecture; Configuration; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Sammanfattning : Construction is often defined as a project-oriented industry that develops complex one-of-a-kind products using an engineer-to-order (ETO) design process. The technical solutions that are developed in specific projects often have integral product architectures that are difficult to re-use in continuous improvement processes. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Role of Lipids in the fate of organochlorine compounds in Aquatic Ecosystems

    Författare :Göran Ewald; LUCSUS; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrobiology; biotransport; redistribution; bioaccumulation; extraction; ecological persistence; chlorinated fatty acids; DDT; PCB; organic pollutants; Lipids; triacylglycerols; phospholipids; marine biology; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Both results of laboratory experiments and material collected in the field have shown the lipid composition in organisms to have a significant effect on the bioaccumulation of pollutants and on the lipid steady-state concentrations of pollutants there. The redistribution of persistent organic pollutants which occurs in organisms as a consequence of the depletion of lipid depot, was studied in a population of migrating Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka).

  5. 4. Supply Chain Management in the Construction Industry

    Författare :Fredrik Olsson; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : In this licentiate thesis the implications of a deliberate use of logistics knowledge have been investigated by describing and analyzing the use of a supply chain management approach in the construction industry. A five-step approach is used in the thesis. First, theoretical models are developed from the supply chain management literature. LÄS MER
