  5. 8. Unpacking Sanitation Planning Comparing Theory and Practice

    Author : Jennifer R Mc Conville; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Participation; Sustainability; Urban; Procedural planning theory; Decision-making; Sanitation; Process; Planning practice;

    Abstract : Lack of proper sanitation is linked to significant negative impacts on environmental and public health, economy, and human dignity. Despite the efforts made to reach the United Nations Millennium Development Goals, the world will miss its target of halving the percentage of people without access to improved sanitation by 2015; and there is general agreement within the field of sanitation that the sector has failed to deliver substantial improvements to the most needy.

  6. 9. Adaptive control for robots to handle uncertainties, delays and state constraints

    Author : Viswa Narayanan Sankaranarayanan; George Nikolakopoulos; Sumeet Gajanan Satpute; Christos Verginis; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; adaptive control; barrier funciton; nonlinear control; Robotics and Artificial Intelligence; Robotik och artificiell intelligens;

    Abstract : The stability and safety of robotic systems are heavily impacted by delays and parametric uncertainties due to external disturbances, modeling inaccuracies, reaction forces, and variations in dynamics. This work addresses the effects of parametric uncertainties in the application of payload transportation by robotic systems that involve time delays and state constraints. READ MORE

  7. 10. Growth and Business Cycles -Swedish Manufacturing Industry 1952-2001

    Author : Camilla Josephson; Lennart Schön; Deirdre Nansen MC Closkey; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ekonomisk och social historia; Social and economic history; Nutidshistoria från 1914 ; Contemporary history since 1914 ; Manufacturing industry; Institutional change; Knowledge accumulation; Opportunity costs; The cointegrated VAR model; Business cycles; Economic growth; TFP growth; Cyclical economics; Konjunkturteori; cykliska förlopp; Contemporary history;

    Abstract : This study shows that the mechanisms behind knowledge accumulation and the sources of productivity growth differ from industry to industry depending on what is produced and what technology is used. Although it is apparent to most researchers in the field that the only way to explain long-run growth in output per capita is through technological progress and accumulation of knowledge that counteract the dampening effect of diminishing returns, we are still in the dark about how such mechanisms operate.
