2. 11. Situated Reflexive Change : User-Centred Design in(to) Practice

   Author : Elina Eriksson; Jan Gulliksen; Anna Swartling; Netta Iivari; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; user-centred design; user-centred systems design; organizational change; sensemaking; reflexivity; practice;

   Abstract : Technology used in the Swedish workplace is perceived to be controlling, gener- ally still difficult to use, and with a low degree of usability. Even though the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) has been concerned with researching different ways of developing usable systems for at least half a century, there seem to be problems with the diffusion of the results into practice.

4. 12. Moved by Morality : An Essay on the Practicality of Moral Thought and Talk

   Author : John Eriksson; Sven Danielsson; Jan Österberg; Gunnar Björnsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Philosophy; Metaethics; moral talk; moral thought; internalism; externalism; cognitivism; noncognitivism; motivating states of mind; dispositions; motivation; attitudinal expression; the notion of expression; the possibility of amoralists; accommodation projects; sincerity conditions; Filosofi;

   Abstract : It is part of our everyday experience that there is a reliable connection between moral opinions and motivation. Thinking that an act is right (wrong) tends to be accompanied by motivation to (avoid to) perform the act in question. This is mirrored in moral talk. READ MORE

5. 13. Control Strategy for Energy Efficient Fluid Power Actuators : Utilizing Individual Metering

   Author : Björn Eriksson; Jan-Olov Palmberg; Jonas Larsson; Jochen Pohl; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid power; mode switch; energy efficient; independent metering; split spool; poppet; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a solution enabling lower losses in hydraulic actuator systems. A mobile fluid power system often contains several different actuators supplied with a single load sensing pump. One of the main advantages is the need of only one system pump. This makes the fluid power system compact and cost-effective. READ MORE

6. 14. The zoo-geomorphological impact of fossorial rodents in sub-polar alpine environments

   Author : Bert Eriksson; Jan Boelhowers; John Östh; Hanna Ridefelt; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; zoo-geomorphology; fossorial rodents; sub-polar; alpine; geomorphic work; ecosystem engineers; Physical geography; Naturgeografi; Geography; Geografi;

   Abstract : The geomorphological impact of small fossorial mammals (adapted to digging and living underground), such as rodents can be significant, and both their direct and indirect effects may contribute to landscape formation. This thesis is based on empirical field studies of two burrowing rodent species in sub-polar environments, namely invasive House mice (Mus musculus) on sub-Antarctic Marion Island and Norwegian lemmings (Lemmus lemmus) in sub-Arctic Abisko.

7. 15. Development and Applications of Surface-Confined Transition Metal Complexes : Heterogeneous Catalysis and Anisotropic Particle Surfaces

   Author : Kristofer Eriksson; Jan-Erling Bäckvall; Graham Hutchings; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heterogeneous catalysis; anisotropic particles; protein gradients; nanoparticles; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

   Abstract : The main focus of this thesis has been directed towards developing novel surface-confined transition metal complexes for applications in heterogeneous catalysis and for the preparation of anisotropic particle surfaces. The first part describes the heterogenization of a homogeneous transition metal-based catalyst tetraphenyl cobalt porphyrin (CoTPP) on silicon wafers and on silica particles. READ MORE
