    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Organizational Capabilities; Electrical Manufacturers; Power Transmission; Business History; Technological Change; Knowledge-based Theory of the Firm; ABB; AEG; Alsthom; ASEA; Brown Boveri; CGE; GEC; General Electric; Siemens; Westinghouse; Business Studies;

    Abstract : Organizational capabilities of large industrial firms constitute a pillar in Alfred Chandler's theory of the emergence of managerial capitalism. Science based firms represent one important sector within such an economic context. READ MORE

  4. 2. Internal Dosimetry in Nuclear Fuel Fabrication : Occupational Exposure to Uranium Aerosols

    Author : Edvin Hansson; Mats Eriksson; Håkan Pettersson; Per Roos; Michael Sandborg; Bastian Breustedt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Uranium; Aerosol; Internal; Dose; Nuclear;

    Abstract : The production of nuclear fuel can be associated with occupational exposure to ionizing radiation from radioactive decay of uranium. Such exposure must be sufficiently low and radiation doses adequately determined. Radiation doses from internal exposure, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 3. Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis Applied to the Validation of BWR Bundle Thermal-Hydraulic Calculations

    Author : Augusto Hernandéz Solís; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Latin Hypercube sampling; uncertainty and sensitivity analysis; Thermal‐hydraulic codes; simple random sampling; reactor safety analysis; BFBT benchmark;

    Abstract : In recent years, more realistic safety analyses of nuclear reactors have been based on best estimate (BE) computercodes. The need to validate and refine BE codes that are used in the predictions of relevant reactor safetyparameters, led to the organization of international benchmarks based on high quality experimental data.

  6. 4. Chewing gum and human hair as retrospective dosimeters

    Author : Axel Israelsson; Håkan B.L. Pettersson; Eva Lund; Håkan Gustafsson; Mats Eriksson; Bastian Breustedt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Retrospective dosimeters are sometimes needed after radiological/nuclear (RN) exposures to determine the doses to individuals. Conventional dosimeters may not be at hand or may not be applicable calling for alternative materials. READ MORE
