2. 1. Mould on building materials - A calorimetric study of fungal activity as a function of environmental factors

   Author : Yujing Li; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; materiallära; byggnadsteknik; building construction; fungal activity; temperature; relative humidity; building; image analysis; indoor environment; wood; materialteknik; material technology; mould; calorimetry; isothermal calorimeter;

   Abstract : Mould problems in buildings have become a growing concern during the past decades. The growth of mould fungi indoors deteriorates air quality, influences human health and causes economical losses. Preventing mould growth from occurring is a more cost effective option than cleaning and renovation of buildings with mould problems. READ MORE

4. 2. Preparing Spatial Haptics for Interaction Design

   Author : Jonas Forsslund; Eva-Lotta Sallnäs Pysander; Ylva Fernaeus; Jan Gulliksen; Karl-Johan Lundin-Palmerius; Karon MacLean; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; haptics; interaction design; surgery simulation; haptik; interaktionsdesign; medicinsk simulering; kirurgi; Människa-datorinteraktion; Human-computer Interaction;

   Abstract : Spatial haptics is a fascinating technology with which users can explore and modify3D computer graphics objects with the sense of touch, but its application potentialis often misunderstood. For a large group of application designers it is still unknown,and those who are aware of it often have either too high expectations of what is technicallyachievable or believe it is too complicated to consider at all.

5. 3. Developing Process Design Methodology for Investment Cast Thin-Walled Structures

   Author : Mohsin Raza; Björn Fagerström; Mark Jolly; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

   Abstract : Components for engineering systems, such as gas turbines and jet engines operating at high temperature are usually produced in superalloys. The investment casting process is most widely used for manufacturing these components due to the ability of the process to produce parts with complex geometries to close dimensional tolerances.

6. 4. Simulation of historic buildings for enhancement of preservation and energy performance – issues and methods

   Author : Torun Widström; Folke Björk; Kjartan Gudmundsson; Jesper Arfvidsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building simulation; historic buildings; energy performance; damage risk; mould; thermal bridges; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

   Abstract : Historic buildings are often particularly poorly insulated and difficult to heat, and are also at risk for several reasons. These include potential lack of use due to low thermal comfort leading to low or no profitability, damage risks due to over and under-climatization and risks due to climate change altering the boundary conditions that they were built for.

7. 5. Tooling and processing for efficient and high tolerance prepreg composite manufacturing

   Author : Tommy Grankäll; Malin Åkermo; Per Hallander; Simon Bickerton; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tooling; Composite Manufacturing; Mould; Cure tool; Hot-forming; Compensation; Moisture; Shape distortion; Flyg- och rymdteknik; Aerospace Engineering;

   Abstract : Composite use is normally motivated in aircraft design by improved weight-specific mechanical properties as compared to metals. However, fatigue and dielectric properties may also be critical for material selection. READ MORE
