  2. 1. Integration environmental aspects into product development : proactive measures

    Author : Sofia Ritzén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ecodesign; integrated product development; environmental aspects; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Abstract : Environmental concern has greatly increased in magnitude within the companies of Swedish industry. Product development has become a strategic area: the environmental adaptation of products is fundamental for a decrease in environmental impact from human activities, and product development is an area of the greatest importance to the competitiveness of companies.

  4. 2. Information Requirements in a Proactive Assembly Work Setting

    Author : Jessica Bruch; Christer Johansson; Johan Karltun; Magnus Wiktorsson; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Proactive Behaviour; Information; Assembly; Uncertainty; Change; Manufacturing engineering and work sciences; Produktion och arbetsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Due to the increasingly competitive climate, the on-the-job behaviour of an operator becomes more and more essential for the success of a manufacturing company.  In working contexts, which are dominated by changes and uncertainty, knowledge-based behaviour and work role aspects that cannot be formalized, proactive behaviour of the operator can contribute to competitive advantages.

  5. 3. Measuring and analysing Levels of Automation in assembly systems - For future proactive systems

    Author : Åsa Fasth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LoA; proactive; assembly system; Level of automation;

    Abstract : Production companies frequently have to meet demands and requirements, both internal and external, which trigger a plan for change in different production areas. Smaller batches and shorter time limits for set-ups between products are some of the demands on the assembly systems caused by an increasing number of product variants e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Stress Coping Strategies in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

    Author : Joachim Schjolden; Svante Winberg; Felicity Huntingford; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Salmonid fish; Stress coping; Serotonin; Cortisol; Catecholamines; Monoaminoxidase; Tryptophan; Monoamines; Behaviour; Stress; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Animals show a great variety in physiological and behavioural responses to stressors. These responses are often bimodally distributed within populations and show consistency on an individual level over time and across situations, which in terrestrial vertebrates have been identified as proactive and reactive stress coping strategies.
