  2. 1. Alien Places in Late Soviet Science Fiction : The "Unexpected Encounters" of Arkady and Boris Strugatsky as Novels and Films

    Author : Henriette Cederlöf; Anna Ljunggren; Yvonne Howell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Arkady Strugatsky; Boris Strugatsky; science fiction; heterotopia; paradigm shift; Soviet culture; 1970s; Gothic; adaptation; Stalker; Roadside Picnic; Dead Mountaineer s Hotel; Arkadij Strugatskij; Boris Strugatskij; paradigmskifte; science fiction; heterotopi; Sovjetunionen; 1970-talet; adaption; slaviska språk; Slavic Languages;

    Abstract : This dissertation deals with how science fiction reflects the shift in cultural paradigms that occurred in the Soviet Union between the 1960s and the 1970s. Interest was displaced from the rational to the irrational, from a scientific-technologically oriented optimism about the future to art, religion, philosophy and metaphysics. READ MORE

  4. 2. The weakest link : Governing the risk of floods and dam failure in Sweden

    Author : Erik Persson Pavlović; Lars Nyberg; Mikael Granberg; Inge Svedung; Charles Parker; Pär Olausson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; risk governance; early warning systems; flood risk; risk of dam failure; natural hazards; disaster risk reduction; preparedness; crisis management; systems theory; collaboration; participation; resilience; riskstyrning; varningssystem; översvämningsrisk; dammbrottsrisk; naturolycka; katastrofriskreducering; beredskap; krishantering; systemteori; samverkan; deltagande; resiliens; Risk and Environmental Studies; Risk- och miljöstudier;

    Abstract : The effects of climate change are already being felt today, and future effects, which will be determined by the readiness and resolve of today’s world leaders, are fraught with high levels of complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity, and transboundary effects – characteristics of systemic risk. Since climate change is seen as a threat multiplier, the risks that might be impacted by climate change, such as floods and dam failure, will be affected by systemic risk characteristics as well.

  5. 3. Towards a sustainable mobility paradigm? An assessment of three policy measures

    Author : Fredrik Johansson; Greger Henriksson; Jonas Åkerman; Pelle Envall; Sprei Frances; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sustainable mobility paradigm; Social Practice Theory; Mobility services; flexible parking requirements; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : Transportation and mobility are important components in the organisation and structure of people´s daily activities, but the transport sector has considerable environmental impacts, e.g. greenhouse gas emissions and land use. READ MORE

  6. 4. Evaluation of Train Driving with Lineside ATPand ERTMS Signaling

    Author : Tomas Rosberg; Markus Bohlin; Birgitta Thorslund; Behzad Kordnejad; Ziemke Tom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : From many perspectives there is a need to understand more of how capacity, signal systems, anddriving behavior interact, and naturally since ERTMS is in its early stage, some areas are stillunexplored. The number of retrofitted ERTMS lines and new designed ERTMS lines are increasing inEurope, which implies extra focus on the capacity optimization in the network planning process. READ MORE

  7. 5. Design for 3D Concrete Printing : Optimisation Through Integrated Workflows

    Author : Jose Hernández Vargas; Johan Silfwerbrand; Helena Westerlind; Roberto Naboni; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 3D concrete printing; digital fabrication; concrete structures; additive manufacturing; robotic fabrication; design for manufacturing; structural optimisation; functionally graded concrete; topology optimisation.; 3D-betongutskrift; digital tillverkning; betongkonstruktioner; additiv tillverkning; robotstyrd tillverkning; design för tillverkning; strukturell optimering; funktionellt graderad betong; topologioptimering.; Betongbyggnad; Concrete Structures;

    Abstract : The transition from conventional cast concrete to 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) marks a paradigm shift by directly depositing fresh concrete layer upon layer according to a digital model without the need for a formwork. This technology offers the possibility of achieving innovative and complex geometries in an automated process. READ MORE
