  1. 1. Data in, lures out: designing selective lures against fruit pests

    Författare :Sebastian Larsson Herrera; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : With the push for rebuilding ecosystem resilience and the aim to lower the footprint of agriculture, there is an urgent need for novel, sustainable tools for managing pests. Insect olfaction is a good target to designing such novel tools. However, the rate at which odor-based insect control innovations are churned out is underwhelming. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Providers and Profiteers: Essays on Profits and Competition in the Provision of Public Services

    Författare :Sebastian Larsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Public Services; Competition; Quality; Education; Spatial Econometrics; Panel Data econometrics; Grade inflation;

    Sammanfattning : Public services, such as education and health care, are provided by both public and private actors. In some countries, such as Sweden, these include for-profit organizations. In systems allowing the users to choose freely, the providers must compete, often by offering qualities that the users may care about. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Rethinking Ontological Security Theory : Conceptual Investigations into 'Self' and 'Anxiety'

  5. 4. Light-weighting Methodology in Rail Vehicle Design through Introduction of Load Carrying Sandwich Panels

    Författare :David Wennberg; Sebastian Stichel; Per Wennhage; Ragnar Larsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sandwich panels; rail vehicle; lightweight; optimisation; carbody; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik; Construction engineering; Konstruktionsteknik; Construction materials; Konstruktionsmaterial;

    Sammanfattning : Lightweight design in rail vehicles has been important for quite some time. Structures have been optimised to fulfill their purpose and cut unnecessary weight to reach allowable axle loads. Classically this is done by using steel, thin-walled structures, throughout the car body, or, alternatively, power-pressed aluminum profiles. LÄS MER
