  2. 16. The heat is on : Evaluation of workplace heat stress under a changing climate

    Author : Karin Lundgren Kownacki; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : occupational heat stress; India; case studies; interventions; international standards; productivity; climate change;

    Abstract : Background: There are several scientific indications that increasing heat due to climate change is going to become the next big societal and scientific challenge. Climate change is recognized as a significant public health threat. However, there is a lack of research on its impacts on occupational safety and health. READ MORE

  4. 17. Chlorophyll fluorescence as a biological feedback signal -for optimized plant growth conditions and stress diagnosis

    Author : Linnéa Ahlman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cucumber; indoor farming; abiotic stress; Fluorescence gain; ESC; biotic stress; basil; dynamics; strawberries; light spectrum; greenhouse lighting control; lettuce; powdery mildew Podosphaera aphanis; Pythium ultimum; LED; classification; lemon balm;

    Abstract : The use of light emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of traditional high pressure sodium lamps, in greenhouses and indoor growing facilities, enables tuning and optimization of both light intensity and light spectrum. This opens for an energy saving potential not possible otherwise. READ MORE

  5. 18. Effect of Stress Relief Annealing: Part Distortion, Mechanical Properties, and Microstructure of Additively Manufactured Austenitic Stainless Steel

    Author : Emil Edin; Marta-Lena Antti; Pia Åkerfeldt; Fredrik Svahn; Magnus Neikter; Paul Åkerström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Laser powder bed fusion; stainless steel; residual stress; heat treatment; tensile testing; relaxation testing; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) processes may introduce large residual stresses in the as-built part, in particular the laser powder bed fusion process (L-PBF). The residual stress state is an inherent consequence of the heterogeneous heating and subsequent cooling during the process. READ MORE

  6. 19. Abiotic Stress Tolerance. Metabolic and Physiological Effects of Compatible Solutes and Calmodulin on E. coli and Tobacco

    Author : Jenny Lindberg; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Abiotic stress; compatible solutes; osmotic stress; osmoprotectants; trehalose; calmodulin; E. coli; N. tabacum; genetic engineering; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Biochemistry; Metabolism; Biokemi; metabolism; glycine betaine;

    Abstract : In their natural habitats, bacteria and plants can be exposed to abiotic stresses such as drought, high salt concentrations and freezing, which are factors limiting their capacity for growth and proliferation. To withstand environmental stresses, they have evolved specific stress responses. READ MORE

  7. 20. Process chain simulation of forming, welding and heat treatment of Alloy 718

    Author : Joachim Steffenburg-Nordenström; Lars-Erik Svensson; Lars-Erik Lindgren; Fredrik Niklasson; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forming; Welding; Stress relieve annealing; Heat treatment; Finite Element Simulation; Manufacturing process chain; Alloy 718; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : Manufacturing of aero engine components requires attention to residual stress and final shape of the product in order to meet high quality product standards.This sets very high demands on involved manufacturing steps to meet design requirements. READ MORE
