  1. 1. The Problem of Formulating Design Problems : A Typology of Design Briefs

    Author : Juan Felipe Ruiz Muñoz; Renee Wever; Marie Bengtsson; Matteo Vignoli; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES;

    Abstract : It is common for a design team to be handed a problem to solve for others. The handing over is normally referred to as a ‘briefing’ process, and the documentation of the starting point and what is to be done is known as a ‘brief’. It is known that the way we frame and understand a problem influences what paths we see to potential solutions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Problems in Problem-Based Design Engineering Education : Towards a Multidisciplinary Designerly Educational Approach

    Author : Juan Felipe Ruiz Muñoz; Renee Wever; Marie Bengtsson; Anna Öhrvall Rönnbäck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES;

    Abstract : Modern industry faces complex and 'wicked' problems that require engineering professionals to go beyond traditional natural science-based linear problem-solving approaches and adopt collaborative, multidisciplinary, and iterative problem-solving strategies. To tackle these kinds of problems, organizations are increasingly turning to design problem- solving methods based on the designer’s way of thinking, acting, and doing. READ MORE

  3. 3. Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) from a moderate halophile: production and modification for new applications

    Author : Marlene Munoz; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biopolymers; polyhydroxyalkanoates; polyhydroxybutyrate; moderate halophile; Halomonas boliviensis; fermentation; recovery; thermally induced phase separation; scaffolds; covalent modification; hydrophobic ion pairing; polyethylenemine; lysozyme.;

    Abstract : Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a homopolymer belonging to the family of biopolyesters, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) produced by different bacteria and archaea as intracellular granules often under conditions of metabolic stress due to a limited supply of essential nutrients. The properties of the PHAs are similar to those of polyethylene and polypropylene and can hence replace these fossil based polymers in a large variety of applications. READ MORE

  4. 4. Algal-Bacterial Photobioreactors for the Degradation of Toxic Organic Pollutants

    Author : Raul Munoz; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; symbiosis.; nutrient removal; heavy metals removal; Algal-bacterial systems photobioreactors; toxic organic pollutants;

    Abstract : The aerobic biodegradation of toxic organic volatile contaminants is always limited by the low aqueous solubility of O2. Therefore, intensive bubbling or surface aeration is required to supply the bacterial community with sufficient O2 to carry out pollutant mineralization. This can cause the hazardous volatilization of toxic volatile contaminants. READ MORE

  5. 5. Infrafaces: Essays on the Artistic Interaction

    Author : Marco Muñoz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; interaction; artistic research; digital art; infrafaces; interface; paradoxes; art and technology;

    Abstract : The essays collected in this dissertation introduce a new concept in the field of interactive art: the concept of infrafaces. This thesis shows how a new zone is discovered when two or more elements connect. READ MORE
