  2. 1. A Framework for Evaluation of Flood Management Strategies

    Author : Karin Hansson; Love Ekenberg; Mats Danielson; Anna Vári; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : flood; decision; multi criteria; simulation; evaluation; data- och systemvetenskap; Computer and Systems Sciences;

    Abstract : During the last decades, a great deal of attention has been focused on the financial risk management of natural disasters. The reason is that the economic losses from floods, windstorms, earthquakes and other disasters in both the developing and developed countries are escalating dramatically. READ MORE

  4. 2. Phylogeny and species diversity of the South and Southeast Asian cyprinid genus Danio Hamilton (Teleostei, Cyprinidae)

    Author : Fang Fang Kullander; Richard Vari; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Benfiskar; karpfiskar; fylogeni; Sydasien; Sydostasien; Systematic Zoology; zoologisk systematik och evolutionsforskning;

    Abstract : Danio Hamilton, in the wide sense, consists of 66 nominal species, of which about 45 are valid. Four species, viz. D. kakhienensis, D. READ MORE

  5. 3. Phase Transitions in Large Oscillator Lattices

    Author : Per Östborn; Antikens kultur och samhällsliv; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; thermodynamics; statistical physics; phase transition; limit cycle oscillator; frequency entrainment; synchronization; sinus node; classical mechanics; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; arrhythmia; gravitation; quantum mechanics; relativity; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; termodynamik; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Östborn;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with large networks of limit cycle oscillators. A limit cycle oscillator is a dynamical system that has a periodic attractor in phase space, and is defined in continuous time. To each such oscillator one can associate a natural frequency. READ MORE

  6. 4. Experimental investigation of snow metamorphism at near-surface layers

    Author : Lavan Kumar Eppanapelli; Mikael Sjödahl; Johan Casselgren; Arne Instanes; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Snow metamorphism; NIR reflectance; Snow and Ice; Radiative transfer equation; Paramterization; Snow properties; Tomography; Snow microstructure; Experimentell mekanik; Experimental Mechanics;

    Abstract : Snow metamorphism is a direct objective in many snow research areas, and its charac-terisation is a major challenge in areas including winter road maintenance, detection of icing on wind turbine blades, and snow quality mapping for skiing. A common effect of snow metamorphism is compaction, which can be investigated from the associated vari-ations in physical properties of snow. READ MORE

  7. 5. Be lean to be resilient : Setting capabilities for turbulent times

    Author : Seyoum Eshetu Birkie; Matti Kaulio; Paolo Trucco; Jussi Heikkilä; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Resilience; lean production; synergy; supply chain disruption; dynamic capabilities; mixed method approach; uncertainties; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management;

    Abstract : Businesses globally are challenged to innovate their operations strategies and practices towards tighter delivery times, better quality and cheaper prices to remain profitable in addition to managing unpredictable circumstances well in today’s turbulent business environment. They often have to deal with the apparent paradox of advancing efficiency-fostering approaches such as lean production, and enhancing operational resilience against unanticipated disruptions.
