  1. 1. Environmental Modelling : Learning from Uncertainty

    Author : John M. Juston; Per-Erik Jansson; Jens Christian Refsgaard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Models; data; error; uncertainty; hydrology; soil carbon; wetlands; phosphorus;

    Abstract : Environmental models are important tools; however uncertainty is pervasive in the modeling process.   Current research has shown that under­standing and representing these uncertainties is critical when decisions are expected to be made from the modeling results. READ MORE

  2. 2. Mathematical modelling and Problem Solving in Engineering Education

    Author : Tabassum Jahan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematical modelling; Self-regulation; Engineering education; Beliefs; Case study; Authentic learning; Authenticity; Metacognition; Problem solving; Engineering education research;

    Abstract : Background Innovation and technology have made the 21st century engineering workplace problems more diverse and challenging. Mathematical modelling is being increasingly used as the primary form of engineering design and is fundamental in everyday engineering problem solving. READ MORE

  3. 3. Connect : Modelling Learning to Facilitate Linking Models and the Real World trough Lab-Work in Electric Circuit Courses for Engineering Students

    Author : Anna-Karin Carstensen; Jonte Bernhard; Christian Kautz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering Education; Engineering Education Research; Key concepts; Labwork; Laplace Transforms; Learning; Learning of a Complex Concept; Learning to model; Modelling learning; Models; Practical Epistemologies; Threshold concepts; Variation Theory;

    Abstract : A recurring question in science and engineering education is why the students do not link knowledge from theoretical classes to the real world met in laboratory courses.Mathematical models and visualisations are widely used in engineering and engineering education. READ MORE

  4. 4. Applied Machine Learning in Steel Process Engineering : Using Supervised Machine Learning Models to Predict the Electrical Energy Consumption of Electric Arc Furnaces

    Author : Leo Carlsson; Pär Jönsson; Peter Samuelsson; Mikael Vejdemo-Johansson; Henrik Saxen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electric Arc Furnace; Electrical Energy Consumption; Statistical Modelling; Machine Learning; Interpretable Machine Learning; Predictive Modelling; Industry 4.0; Ljusbågsugn; Elenergiförbrukning; Statistisk Modellering; Maskininlärning; Tolkningsbar Maskininlärning; Prediktiv Modellering; Industri 4.0; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Metallurgical process science; Metallurgisk processvetenskap;

    Abstract : The steel industry is in constant need of improving its production processes. This is partly due to increasing competition and partly due to environmental concerns. One commonly used method for improving these processes is through the act of modeling. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lifelong learning, intergenerational learning, and social capital : from theory to practice

    Author : Ann-Kristin Boström; Tom Schuller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Lifelong learning; intergenerational learning; social capital; granddad intervention; transmission of skills; attitudes; values and norms; Stockholm; International education; Internationell pedagogik; pedagogik; Education;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between lifelong learning, intergenerational learning and social capital by reporting on an analysis of the concepts and an investigation of one instance of intergenerational interaction, namely “the granddad programme” – an intervention project run by a limited number of schools in the Stockholm area. The theoretical background concerns both the lifelong perspectiveand the lifewide perspective of learning across the lifespan. READ MORE
