1. 11. Essays on Firm Turnover, Growth, and Investment Behavior in Ethiopian Manufacturing

   Författare :Mulu G Gebreeyesus; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; firm turnover; productivity; firm growth; investment; adjustment cost; irreversibility; manufacturing; Africa; Ethiopia.;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis analyses the dynamics and investment behavior of Ethiopian manufacturing firms in post-reform period using establishment level industrial census panel data from 1996 to 2003. Three related topics such as firm turnover and productivity differentials, determinants of firm growth, and the effect of adjustment cost and irreversibility on firm investment decisions are investigated empirically.

3. 12. Ergonomics Methods and Work Procedures in Car Manufacturing for Improvement of Quality, Productivity and Health at Work

   Författare :Ann-Christine Falck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cost-benefit; ergonomics; manufacturing; productivity; risk assessment; quality;

   Sammanfattning : Many studies have concluded that there are great human and economic gains in finding ergonomically sound solutions as early as possible in product and production development. Hence, the objective of the research presented in this thesis was to evaluate methods for improved ergonomics assessment in early phases of product and production development and in production.

4. 13. The Concept of Mobile Manufacturing

   Författare :Carin Stillström; Jönköping University; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobility; flexibility; changeability; manufacturing system; production system; Industrial organisation; administration and economics; Industriell organisation; administration och ekonomi; Manufacturing engineering and work sciences; Produktion och arbetsvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : There is a need for a manufacturing concept that is characterized by ease in changing between manufacturing places, ease in producing wherever it is convenient for the moment, ease in collaborating with different partners, and reconfigurability and reuse of manufacturing capacity, while at the same time keeping control of the own capabilities. The objective of this thesis is to investigate and describe the concept of mobile manufacturing in order to find new ways of competing for the manufacturing industry. LÄS MER

5. 14. High Performance Manufacturing of Advanced Thin Plates ─ Forming of Titanium and Stainless Steel Materials

   Författare :Per Gabrielson; Industriell Produktion; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High performance manufacturing; test tools; sheet-metal forming; stainless steel; commercially pure titanium; process optimization; forming simulation; finite element analyses; acoustic emission; production performance analysis; cost models; manufacturing costs; sustainable production;

   Sammanfattning : The manufacturing industry represents a highly important sector of the Swedish economy. The increasing demands placed on the quality and performance of products that are manufactured places increasing demands on the manufacturing processes involved. LÄS MER

7. 15. Cost/Weight Optimization of Aircraft Structures

   Författare :Markus Kaufmann; Dan Zenkert; Frédéric Lani; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Cost Weight Optimization; Weight Penalty; Direct Operating Cost; Composite Structures; Non-destructive testing; Finite element analysis FEA ; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Sammanfattning : Composite structures can lower the weight of an airliner significantly. The increased production cost, however, requires the application of cost-effective design strategies. Hence, a comparative value is required which is used for the evaluation of a design solution in terms of cost and weight. LÄS MER
