2. 1. Om organisering av det regenerativa arbetet : samtal om roll, process och interaktivt meningsskapande

   Author : Ulf Ericsson; Marianne Ekman Rising; Birgitta Södergren; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Regenerative work; Organizing; Sensemaking; Leadership Management; Wellbeing and Health care; Work sciences and ergonomics; Arbetsvetenskap och ergonomi;

   Abstract : The focal point of this thesis is an interest in the phenomena of regenerative work, which is a work that has the potential of recreating and developing human resources and energy. The aim is to make a contribution, by presenting a supplementary perspective, to this area of research by considering regenerative work through a process perspective where the centre of interest is transferred from being a question of what to a question of how? The guiding research question is as follows: How could the organizing processes of regenerative work be understood? - more specifically - through an interactive approach the purpose is to describe, analyze and understand those everyday processes that have implications for regenerative work.

4. 2. Position-sensitive germanium detectors for gamma-ray tracking, imaging and polarimetry

   Author : Anton Khaplanov; Bo Cederwall; Araceli Lopez-Martens; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

   Abstract : Modern germanium detectors are often manufactured with two-dimensionally segmented electrical contacts. Signals induced in each segment are read out simultaneously when a photon is detected. Detailed pulse shape analysis (PSA) of these signals allows to resolve positions of individual γ-ray interactions with a precision of at least a few mm. READ MORE

5. 3. An experimental investigation of disturbance growth in boundary layer flows

   Author : Thomas Kurian; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Jens H. M. Fransson; Edward B. White; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the early stages of transition to turbulence in two different baseflows, namely the Falkner-Skan-Cooke boundary layer (FSC) and the asymptotic suction boundary layer (ASBL). Grid-generated turbulence is studied in order to characterise the isotropy levels, free-stream turbulence levels and characteristic length scales that will be present in the receptivity study.

6. 4. Exploring social-cultural explanations for residential location choices : the case of an African City - Dar es Salaam

   Author : Tatu Mtwangi Limbumba; Rolf Johansson; Andrew Byerley; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Residential location choices; informal settlements; social networks; social capital; African cities; Architectural conservation and restoration; Bebyggelsevård;

   Abstract : This study explores the factors urban residents consider when making residential location decisions. The context of the study is informal residential areas in a rapidly urbanising African city – the city of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. READ MORE
