  2. 1. Bringing System Dynamics into Action Research

    Author : Paul Holmström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; process consultation; Operations Research; simulation; action research; modelling; System Dynamics; healthcare;

    Abstract : System Dynamics simulation is a computer-aided approach to policy analysis and design, often carried out by external experts in simulation. System Dynamics is particularly useful in complicated and complex situations, such as healthcare. However, research has shown that few models in healthcare are implemented. READ MORE

  4. 2. Insights from combining Action Research and System Dynamics when facilitating change and improvement processes in healthcare

    Author : Paul Holmström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; healthcare; improvement; change; implementation; action research; system dynamics; simulation;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND Healthcare is a complex system with multi-professional staff and multiple patient care pathways. Time pressure and minimal margins for error makes it challenging to implement new policies or procedures, no matter how desirable. Changes in healthcare also requires the participation of the multi-professional staff. READ MORE

  5. 3. On System Dynamics as an Approach for Manufacturing Systems Development

    Author : Gary Linnéusson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system dynamics; manufacturing systems development; operational; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknik; Technology;

    Abstract : Improvement work in manufacturing industry usually focuses on the utilisation of equipment. System dynamics simulation is a potential tool for increasing the utilisation of systems. By using group model building and simulation it facilitates a common view and better informed decisions for change. READ MORE

  6. 4. Power System Oscillations - Detection, Estimation and Control

    Author : Morten Hemmingsson; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektroteknik; oscillation; power system; damping; power swing; distance protection; detection; estimation; real-time; reactive co-variation; control; Electrical engineering; load modulation; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is the electro-mechanical oscillations which to some extent always are present in a power system. The demand of electric power is ever increasing. At the same time, the tolerance of disruptions in the power supply is decreasing. READ MORE

  7. 5. Computational Dissection of the Basal Ganglia : functions and dynamics in health and disease

    Author : Mikael Lindahl; Jeanette Hällgren Kotaleski; Mark Humphries; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : The basal ganglia (BG), a group of nuclei in the forebrain of all vertebrates, are important for behavioral selection. BG receive contextual input from most cortical areas as well as from parts of the thalamus, and provide output to brain systems that are involved in the generation of behavior, i.e. the thalamus and the brain stem.
