  2. 6. Robust design : Accounting for uncertainties in engineering

    Author : David Lönn; Larsgunnar Nilsson; Niclas Strömberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Robust optimisation; robust design; robustness; meta model; sensitivity analysis; Solid mechanics; Fastkroppsmekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns optimization of structures considering various uncertainties. The overall objective is to find methods to create solutions that are optimal both in the sense of handling the typical load case and minimising the variability of the response, i.e. robust optimal designs.

  4. 7. Demystifying the Black Box - Exploring How Users Make Sense of Fully Automated Vehicles

    Author : Mikael Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Automated vehicles; Driving Automation; Meaning; Conceptual model; Make sense; Product semantics; Signifiers; Understanding;

    Abstract : Vehicles are becoming increasingly automated. Already today vehicles are able to take over and assist the human driver in certain driving tasks, and the scope of technical possibilities is rapidly expanding. However, for the proliferation of AVs to occur, there are several challenges that must first be overcome. READ MORE

    Abstract : Proposing a ‘multivocal practice’ in the vocal arts, this exposition (documented artistic research project) embodies an inclusive approach to four core categories for the contemporary performance voice: the singing, speaking, extended and disembodied voice. The culmination of a four-year PhD project in the Performative and mediated practices, with specializations in choreography/film and media/opera /performing arts, it documents artistic research sub-projects through the presentation of multimedia material, interweaving performance recordings with reflection and informative threads.

  7. 10. The Savage and the Designed : Robert Wilson and Vivienne Westwood as Artistic Managers

    Author : Clemens Thornquist; Pierre Guillet de Monthoux; Lisbeth Svengren Holm; Chris Steyaert; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : art management; design management; design methodology; design; fashion; intuition;

    Abstract : This work deals with the management of systematized and collaborative artistic design processes, driven by an auteur. It is a critique of the dominant design management discourse as it identifies three critical issues in the discourse leading to a dilemma in the management of such a collaborative auteur-driven process, (i) a static and institutionalized concept of identity, (ii) a focus on a predetermined direction, (iii) a predominant employment of deterministic design methods.
