  2. 6. Designing visualization and interaction for industrial control rooms of the future

    Author : Veronika Domova; Jonas Löwgren; Elina Vartiainen; Thomas Porathe; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Industrial control room; Industrial operator; Human-computer interaction;

    Abstract : During the last decades, the industry has been undergoing extensive digitization leading to complex ensembles of humans, machines, autonomous agents, and sensors. With this new setup comes the challenge of how to appropriately support work-practices of industrial operators who now need to monitor and control complex industrial processes through remote interfaces.

  4. 7. Lighting Control Systems to Save Energy in the non-Residential Sector : State-of-the-art, Field Studies, and Simulations

    Author : Niko Gentile; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Indoor lighting; lighting control system; lighting control; energy sav; energy eff; user acceptan; degree of acceptance; human factor; occupancy strategy; presence strategy; absence strategy; daylight harvesting; daylight-linked; daylight; photoelectric dimming; photosensor; manual switch; functional illumination; standby;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the energy-saving potential for lighting when using traditional indoor LCSs in non-residential buildings. In the study, an overarching theoretical framework is used that distinguishes between energy efficiency and energy saving, as well as between energy use for lighting and functional illumination.

  5. 8. Representing human-automation challenges

    Author : Jonas Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-machine systems; control rooms; cognitive systems engineering; automation;

    Abstract : Automation technology is widely implemented in process control domains due to its benefits of improving efficiency and enhancing control. However, use of automation also introduces an often complex intermediary between the human and the controlled domain, which can obscure from the operator how system functioning is achieved.

  6. 9. Dispersion and risk assessment of airborne contaminants in pharmaceutical clean rooms

    Author : Berit Reinmüller; KTH; []
    Keywords : airborne contamination; clean rooms; clean zones; clothing systems; dispersion of contaminants; LR-Method; microbiological risk assessment; risk assessment; source strenth;

    Abstract : In many of today's industries, particularly in the healthcare field, special protection is required against airbornemicrobiological contamination. Clean rooms and clean zones areused to separate the ambient environment from contaminationcontrolled areas. READ MORE

  7. 10. Adapting Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems for Office Buildings without Active Control Dampers

    Author : Mari-Liis Maripuu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; climate control; CAV; variable supply air diffuser; ventilation; VAV; energy efficiency;

    Abstract : In commercial buildings the building services systems may account for a substantial part of the need of energy. There is, at least in Sweden, a large existing stock of 20 to 30 year old office buildings, which are supplied with centralised constant air volume flow (CAV) air conditioning systems with the primary function to keep the room temperature at an acceptable level summertime.
