  1. 21. Support for the industrial packaging development process: Buyer and supplier perspectives

    Author : Sandra Silgård Casell; Förpackningslogistik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Collaboration; development process; industrial packaging;

    Abstract : Industrial packaging contains the parts of final products and is used in the handling and transport of them from the component supplier to the manufacturing company. An increased interest and emphasis on industrial packaging is necessary if the associated potential benefits in terms of costs, efficiency and effectiveness of packaging related activities are to be realized (related activities are those that have an impact on or are affected by the use of packaging).

  2. 22. Early Involvement of Industrial Designers in Product Development: Exploring Motives and Challenges

    Author : Lisa Carlgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Customer understanding; Capability; Front end; Collaboration; Product development; Facilitation; Industrial design;

    Abstract : The ability to develop and market products that customers value determines a firm’s competitiveness, and product development that aims at competitive advantage must addressdevelopment efficiency in a conscious way. From a strategic point of view, improvements in the early phases of product development, before a development project is launched, areemphasized, and there is a need to study the best way to organize front end teams, and what personal qualities are likely to facilitate front end performance.

  3. 23. Improving Stress Tolerance in Industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains for Ethanol Production from Lignocellulosic Biomass

    Author : Valeria Wallace; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; lignocellulose; ethanol; inhibitors; temperature; stress tolerance;

    Abstract : The present work was aimed at developing industrial S. cerevisiae strains with improved tolerance to two types of stressors encountered during the fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass that affect ethanol yield and productivity, namely hydrolysate-derived inhibitors and high temperature, and at understanding the response of yeast and mechanisms of adaptation to such stressors.

  4. 24. Applying lean principles and set-based approaches in product development

    Author : Mikael Ström; RISE Research Institutes of Sweden; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Set-based design; Controlled convergence; Concept development; Lean product development; Lean transformation; Industrial introduction;

    Abstract : The research described in this thesis addresses the problem of transformation to lean product development (LPD) and how to introduce and support the use of set-based design (SBD) in the concept development process. The original description of SBD does not define how to generate, evaluate and reduce a set of design solutions. READ MORE

  5. 25. On Structuring and Practical Use of the Lean Product Development Concept : Based on Case Studies of Industrial Product Development Organizations

    Author : Liv Gingnell; Robert Lagerström; Joakim Lilliesköld; Torgeir Welo; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industriella informations- och styrsystem; Industrial Information and Control Systems;

    Abstract : All companies are dependent on having customers that choose to buy their products. These products are the result of the complex New Product Development process (NPD). This process involves many different functions and people with different backgrounds cooperating with each other. READ MORE
