    Abstract : Background: A boy child born in a Gothenburg suburb has a life expectancy that is nine years shorter than that of another child just 23 km away, and among girls the difference is five years. There is no necessary biological reason to this observed difference. READ MORE

  5. 3. Properties and tests for some classes of life distributions

    Author : Bengt Klefsjö; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Life distribution; survival function; exponential distribution; IFR; IFRA; NBUE; DMRL; HNBUE; shock model; total time on test transform; testing of exponentiality;

    Abstract : A life distribution and its survival function F = 1 - F with finitemean y = /q F(x)dx are said to be HNBUE (HNWUE) if F(x)dx < (>)U exp(-t/y) for t > 0. The major part of this thesis deals with the classof HNBUE (HNWUE) life distributions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Defects in E-PBF Ti-6Al-4V and their Effect on Fatigue Behaviour : Characteristics, Distribution and Impact on Life

    Author : Viktor Sandell; Marta-Lena Antti; Pia Åkerfeldt; Thomas Hansson; Hans Andersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Defects; Additive Manufacturing; Ti-6Al-4V; Probabilistic Modelling; Fatigue; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Layer by layer manufacturing (additive manufacturing, AM) of metals is emerging as an alternative to conventional subtractive manufacturing with the goal of enabling near net-shape production of complex part geometries with reduced material waste and shorter lead times. Recently this field has experienced rapid growth through industrial adaptation but has simultaneously encountered challenges. READ MORE

  7. 5. Security of Electricity Supply in Power Distribution System : Optimization Algorithms for Reliability Centered Distribution System Planning

    Author : Sanja Duvnjak Zarkovic; Patrik Hilber; Ebrahim Shayesteh; George Anders; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The importance of electricity in everyday life and demands to improve the reliability of distribution systems force utilities to operate and plan their networks in a more secure and economical manner. With higher demands on reliability from both customers and regulators, a big pressure has been put on the security of electricity supply which is considered as a fundamental requirement for modern societies.
