  1. 1. HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK MANAGEMENT ON BUILDING CONSTUCTION SITES IN TANZANIA: The Practice of Risk Assessment, Communication and Control

    Author : Sarah Phoya; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Risk control; and Process; Practice; Risk Management; Risk Communication; Health and safety risk; Construction Sites;

    Abstract : The construction industry is an important part of the economy in many countries and is often seen as a driver of economic growth especially in developing countries. Owing to its relatively labour intensive nature, construction works provide opportunities for employment for a wide range of people skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled. READ MORE

  2. 2. Managing joint development of process technologies : empirical studies of interorganizational collaboration within the process industries

    Author : David Rönnberg Sjödin; Monica Bellgran; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Entreprenörskap och innovation; Entrepreneurship and Innovation;

    Abstract : The concept of open innovation has gained widespread acceptance in different lines of research, and it has had a major impact on both research and practice during the last decade. The inherent logic of open innovation is simply that firms can and should use external as well as internal knowledge and information sources, and both internal and external paths to market, when they seek to maximize returns from development activities.

  3. 3. Human-Machine Interface Considerations for Design and Testing in Distributed Sociotechnical Systems

    Author : Yemao Man; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Automation Bias; Human Machine Interface; Situation Awareness; Design; Maritime Transportation; Distributed Sociotechnical System; Human Factors; Decision Making;

    Abstract : The increasing concerns for safety and environmental sustainability create demands on the development of future maritime transportation strategies. One way to meet these demands is the concept of autonomous unmanned vessels for intercontinental voyages. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design, Synthesis and Thermodynamic Studies of Galectin Ligands

    Author : Maria Luisa Verteramo; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; galectin; conformational entropy; solvation; thermodynamic; interaction; molecular recognition; thiodigalactoside; diastereomer; structure-based design;

    Abstract : The signaling within and between cells in biology is governed by molecular recognition between natural or synthetic ligands and proteins. This thesis project aimed to investigate the thermodynamic properties of specific interaction between synthetic ligands and galectin proteins. READ MORE

  5. 5. Holistic approach in engineering design - controlling risks from accidental hazards in bridge design

    Author : Ivar Björnsson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design; codes; accidental; extreme; bridges; holistic; approach; robustness; risk; reliability; uncertainty;

    Abstract : Engineering design, in concise terms, is what engineers do using what they know. It is the underlying decision making activity that determines what is to be built and how it should be built. An ever present requirement in engineering design is that the structure should be safe.
