    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ergonomics; Human Factors; Risk Assessment; Hazard Assessment; Screening; Observation; the RAMP tool; Design; Lifting; Pushing; Pulling; Postures; Usability; Musculoskeletal Disorders; Ergonomists; Evaluation; Reliability.; Ergonomi; Human Factors; Manuell Hantering; Riskbedömningar; Screening; Observation; RAMP verktyget; Design; Lyft; Skjuta; Dra; Arbetsställningar; Användbarhet; Belastningsbesvär; Ergonomer; Utvärdering; Reliabilitet.; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Abstract : Despite efforts of reducing harmful physical ergonomics exposures related to manual handling, the occurrence of heavy or repetitive manual handling, and non-neutral postures is high in many occupational sectors. To reduce these exposures, interventions and job design strategies can utilize risk assessment. READ MORE

  4. 2. On Efficient Transmission Balancing Operation : Capturing the Normal State Frequency and Active Power Dynamics

    Author : Martin Nilsson; Lennart Söder; Julia Matevosyan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active Power Dynamics; Frequency Control; Normal State; Power System Balancing; Transmission System Operator; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In an electric power system, there will always be an electric balance. Nevertheless, System Operators (SOs) often uses the term imbalance. Here, the term imbalance refers to the difference between trades and real-time measurements. READ MORE

    Author : Pernilla Koivisto; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Packed capillary liquid chromatography in combination with ultraviolet and mass spectrometric (MS) detection was explored as an analytical tool for drug analysis. The focus was put on column and sample preparation techniques as well as on fundamental aspects and development of chromatographic separations. READ MORE

  6. 4. Implementation of Flexible Automatic Assembly in Small Companies : Flexibility and Process demands

    Author : Roger Johansson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Assembly automation; Flexibility; Modularity;

    Abstract : This thesis has its focus within Flexible Automatic Assembly (FAA) systems and its implementation in small companies. The small companies are an important part of a country’s industry and economy. The need for the small company to increase the technology level, in order to be competitive in a global market as a supplier, is evident. READ MORE
