  1. 11. Improving Software Quality through Understanding and Early Estimations

    Author : Anders Wesslén; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Personal Software Process; process improvement; software development process; defects; faults; failures; test planning; early estimations; usage profile; usage model; statistical usage testing; Software quality; software reliability; Systems engineering; computer technology; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : Software quality is an important factor of a large and complex software system. Hence, there is a need for measuring and controlling quality. Software quality has, however, many different f actors and involves implicit expectations of the behaviour of the software. READ MORE

  2. 12. Turning innovation failures into strategic assets : exploring how novel innovation can leverage prior failure through resource reuse

    Author : Peter Nandor Popovics; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This doctoral dissertation aims to explore how new innovation initiatives can harness resources from prior failures, challenging the prevailing notion that innovation failures primarily yield lessons learned. Instead, it expands the scope of reusable resources to include non-knowledge-based assets like social, technological, and organizational resources, examining their impact on post-failure ventures and innovation projects.

  3. 13. 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

  4. 14. On the establishment of effective condition-based maintenance for oil-filled electrical transformers to reduce failures due to copper corrosion problems and its role toward sustainable energy

    Author : Ramsey Jadim; Mirka Kans; Lina Bertling Tjernberg; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CBM; CM procedures; corrosion problems; transformer oil analysis; corrosive sulfur; transformer failures; sustainable maintenance; sustainable energy supply; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

    Abstract : Oil-filled electrical transformers are critical equipment for modern societies where a sustainable energy supply is required. Recently, many severe fire and explosion accidents of transformers have been reported due to copper corrosion problems in the form of copper sulfide deposits on the windings. READ MORE

  5. 15. On conceptual design reliability : an approach for identification of potential failures

    Author : Micael Derelöv; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Conceptual Design; Potential Failure; Evaluation; Reliability; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis is the result of research in the area of Evaluation and Decision-Making in the Design Process. It examines how to support and facilitate the evaluation activities in the design process in order to create a more solid foundation on which to base design decisions. READ MORE
