2. 21. Precision measurement instruments for machinery's mechanical compliance: design and operation : Measurement instruments for physics-based calibration of advanced manufacturing machinery

   Author : Nikolas Alexander Theissen; Andreas Archenti; Alexander Slocum; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Measurement instruments; Machine tools; Industrial robots; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion;

   Abstract :  Precision Measurement Instruments (PMIs) for machinery’s mechanical compliance are tools to quantify mechanical load as well as length for measurement ranges of 0.1 µm to 10 m at uncertainty levels of 0.1 µm to 100 µm while exerting mechanical loads. READ MORE

4. 22. Measurement Back-Action and Photon Detection in Microwave Quantum Optics

   Author : Anton Frisk Kockum; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Parity Measurement; Quantum Measurement; Quantum Optics; Quantum Stochastic Calculus; Circuit QED; Photodetection; Transmon; Dephasing;

   Abstract : In quantum optics, the interaction between atoms and photons is studied. In recent years, microwave quantum optics with superconducting circuits has emerged as an important tool for fundamental quantum optics experiments, and also as a promising way for implementing quantum computation.

5. 23. Flow Pulsations in Fluid Power Machines - a Measurement and Simulation Study

   Author : Liselott Ericson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : noise; pump; motor; measurement; optimisation; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : Stricter requirements for better working environment involve noise and vibration control of hydraulic machines. The operational conditions for hydraulic machines, such as pressure and rotational speed, are also increasing and this makes it even more difficult to develop a quiet, vibration-free machine due to the interdependence between noise and escalating operational conditions.

6. 24. Loyal until death (?) : The nature, measurement and predictors of loyalty in a military context

   Author : Torbjörn Engelkes; Magnus Sverke; Torun Lindholm; Gerry Larsson; Erik Hedlund; Bo Melin; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; loyalty; behavior; measurement; dimensionality; predictors; social identity fusion; leadership; IPA; factor analysis; Swedish Armed Forces; military; extreme environment; dilemma; psykologi; Psychology;

   Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to broaden the understanding of the concept of loyalty within a military context, by focusing on how the nature of loyalty is experienced, how it can be measured and how it can be predicted. To achieve this, the thesis was structured in three interrelated studies, which initially aimed to examine the content of loyalty within the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF), then to develop and validate a scale to measure loyalty, and finally to examine possible predictors of loyalty.

7. 25. Suitability in law enforcement : Assessing multifaceted selection criteria

   Author : Miguel Inzunza; Christina Wikström; Tova Stenlund; Jan-Eric Gustafsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; selection criteria; measurement; empathy; self-report instrument; validity; interpersonal qualities; didactics of educational measurement; beteendevetenskapliga mätningar;

   Abstract : When selecting applicants for professions with job descriptions involving complex human interaction, identifying suitable candidates is essential. This strongly applies in police selection, because police officers must act appropriately at all times, deal with difficult and sometimes dangerous work situations, and come into contact with people who are in highly emotional states, such as anxiety, fear, excitement, and shock.
