  2. 11. The Corporate Code of Ethics at Home, Far Away and in Between : Sociomaterial Translations of a Traveling Code

    Author : Maira Babri; Ulrica Nylén; Tommy Jensen; Niklas Egels-Zandén; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Corporate Code of Ethics; Translation; Actor-Network Theory; Sociomateriality; Fluid; Vaporous;

    Abstract : Corporate codes of ethics (CCEs) have become increasingly prevalent as overarching ethical guidelines for multinational corporations doing business around the globe. As formal documents, governing corporations’ work, policies, and ways of doing business, CCEs are meant to guide all business activities and apply to all of the corporation’s employees, suppliers, and business partners.

  4. 12. Simulation of Combustion and Fire-Induced Flows in Enclosures

    Author : Heimo Tuovinen; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cumbustion; Chemical kinetics; Flamelet model; CFD models; Fire-induced flows;

    Abstract : Numerical modeling of combustion in flames and gas flows and gas flows generated by fires in compartments has been carried out. The laminar flamelet model has been used to model combustion in different degrees of vitiation in order to model fire gas recirculation which occurs in compartment fires. READ MORE

  5. 13. Indoor Environmental Factors and its Associations with Asthma and Allergy Among Swedish Pre-School Children

    Author : Linda Hägerhed Engman; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; epidemiology; Public health; children; validation; inspections; dampness; moisture problem; questionnaire; allergy; asthma; Folkhälsa; epidemiologi; health;

    Abstract : It has been shown in a large number of scientific studies that living or working in a building with mould and moisture damage increases the risk for asthmatic and allergic symptoms. However, there is a need to establish more valid methods to obtain a more nuanced picture of the wide range of different types of moisture related problems. READ MORE

  6. 14. Plug shear failure in nailed timber connections : avoiding brittle and promoting ductile failures

    Author : Helena Johnsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Abstract : Mechanical timber connections can fail both in a brittle and a ductile manner depending on the joint layout. Plug shear failure in nailed timber connections is a brittle failure mode, which shall be avoided in timber structures. READ MORE

  7. 15. Reinforcement in Tailor-made Concrete Structures

    Author : David Fall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tailor-made concrete structures; Steel fibre reinforcement; Automated production; Geometrically complex structures; Reinforcement alternatives;

    Abstract : In tailor-made concrete structures of complex geometries, the formability of concrete is an asset. To use this formability in load-bearing structures, the concrete needs to be reinforced. During the past century steel bars were used; however, in recent decades, alternative reinforcement methods have been introduced. READ MORE
