  1. 1. The Taller the Ladder, the Tougher the Climb? : Essays on the Impact of Income Inequality on Intergenerational Mobility

    Author : Erik Liss; Karl Wennberg; Martin Korpi; Ali Ahmed; Jo Blanden; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Inequality; Intergenerational Income Mobility; Social Mobility; Economics of Education;

    Abstract : The study of income inequality has a rich history within economics and various social sciences. More recently, a growing body of literature has examined intergenerational income mobility to understand not only equality of opportunities but also whether the labor market allocation successfully utilizes the potential abilities from all social strata.

  2. 2. Creep modelling of particle strengthened steels

    Author : Hans Magnusson; Rolf Sandström; Göran Engberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Particle strengthening; dislocation climb; ferritic steels; dislocation evolution; creep rate modelling; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Materials to be used in thermal power plants have to resist creep deformation for time periods up to 30 years. The role of alloying elements for creep strength of 9-12% Cr steels is analysed. The creep strength in these steels relies on minor additions of alloying elements. READ MORE

  3. 3. Creep modelling of particle strengthened steels

    Author : Hans Magnusson; Rolf Sandström; Wolfgang Blum; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; creep rate modelling; particle hardening; microstructure evolution; dislocation climb; ferritic steels; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Materials used in thermal power plants have to resist creep deformation for time periods up to 30 years. Material evaluation is typically based on creep testing with a maximum duration of a few years. This information is used as input when empirically deriving models for creep. READ MORE

  4. 4. Real-Time Visual Analytics Interfaces to Strengthen Human-Automation Collaboration

    Author : Elmira Zohrevandi; Jonas Lundberg; Carl Westin; Katerina Vrotsou; Paul Rosenthal; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Abstraction hierarchy; Angular timeline visualization; Air traffic complexity; Air traffic control; Air traffic controller; Conflict detection and resolution; Ecological interface design; Focus context visualization; Human-automation collaboration; Human–computer interaction; Information visualization; Interaction; Rate of climb or descent; Research through design; Safety-critical systems; Visual analytics; Visualization; Visualization design and evaluation methods; Work domain analysis;

    Abstract : Automation in today’s world supports human operators to accomplish several tasks in limited time. With more advanced automation and autonomous systems, the hu-mans’ role is shifting from hands-on operational tasks to supervisory tasks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modeling defect structure evolution in spent nuclear fuel container materials

    Author : Arash Hosseinzadeh Delandar; Pavel Korzhavyi; Rolf Sandström; Konstantin Khromov; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cast iron insert; First principles calculations; Point defects; Effective interaction energy; Late blooming phase; Dislocation dynamics; High strain rate deformation; Single-crystal copper; Copper canister; Creep; Glide; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : Materials intended for disposal of spent nuclear fuel require a particular combination of physical and chemical properties. The driving forces and mechanisms underlying the material’s behavior must be scientifically understood in order to enable modeling at the relevant time- and length-scales. READ MORE
