  2. 1. Deployment Control of Spinning Space Webs and Membranes

    Author : Mattias Gärdsback; Anders Eriksson; Gunnar Tibert; Thomas W. Murphey; KTH; []
    Keywords : Flexible structures; space webs; membranes; solar sails; solar power systems; deployment control; optimal control; centrifugal force deployment; spin deployment; rotation-free; shell elements; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Future solar sail and solar power satellite missions require deployment of large and lightweight flexible structures in space. One option is to spin the assembly and use the centrifugal force for deployment, stiffening and stabilization. READ MORE

  4. 2. Customization for an Energy-Efficient Embedded Processor with Flexible Datapath

    Author : Tung Hoang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Integration.; Embedded; Multiply-ACcumulate; Flexible; Energy;

    Abstract : Due to diversified demands of customers, embedded processor datapaths have been extended to accept many functional units, thus growing more complex and energy inefficient. For this reason, it is necessary to carefully analyze the characteristics of the specific embedded applications and fine-tune the hardware implementation. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Brave New Workplace: Disclosing the smart and the dark sides of the alternative office spaces

    Author : Claudia Manca; Matti Kaulio; Mercedes Grijalvo; Miguel Palacios; Viviane Sergi; KTH; []

    Abstract : In recent decades, several knowledge work organizations have introduced alternative workplaces (AWs) that are implemented through flexible and collaborative office models. Their rapid diffusion has been prompted by the deterministic assumption that these may influence workers’ relations and behaviors in the office, in a way that is conducive to greater collaboration and adaptive flexibility.

  6. 4. User experiences with flexible offices

    Author : Antonio Cobaleda Cordero; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; combi office; design research; office design; user studies; UX; user experience; activity-based flexible office; design qualities;

    Abstract : Different office types provide the preconditions for distinct user experiences. However, research evidence on how users appraise flexible offices such as activity-based or combi offices is not as abundant as in the case of the more traditional open-plan and cell offices. READ MORE
