  2. 11. On Material selection and its consequences in product development

    Author : Fredrik Henriksson; Kerstin Johansen; Alison McKay; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Technological development, and increased demands on sustainable solutions, have impacted the development of new products. New products need to be more efficient, and there are increased possibilities for a more diversified and informed decision regarding what materials are used in the product. READ MORE

  4. 12. Studies on the competitiveness of wood : - market segmentation and customer need assessments

    Author : Ragnar Jonsson; Roger Cooper; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : wood; building material; material substitution; end-consumer; floorcovering; customer needs; FORESTRY; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES and LANDSCAPE PLANNING; SKOGS- och JORDBRUKSVETENSKAP samt LANDSKAPSPLANERING;

    Abstract : Over the last decades, wood has encountered increasing competition from other building materials. Hence, it is relevant to study the underlying factors of material substitution. The market for repair and remodelling (R&R) is growing in importance. READ MORE

  5. 13. Approaching Strategic Sustainable Materials Management

    Author : Pia Lindahl; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material selection; Strategic sustainable development; Sustainable materials management;

    Abstract : Society’s sustainability challenges relatedto materials management have been an area of concern for policymakers, industry and the public for decades. However, if those challenges are managed in a strategic way, they are not only aproblem, but could also bring in new opportunity for companies and other organizations to improve their competitiveness through developingproduct-service systems that promote sustainable development of society.

  6. 14. Heterogeneous material integration for MEMS

    Author : Fredrik Forsberg; Frank Niklaus; Lina Sarro; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis describes heterogeneous integration methods for the fabrication of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Most MEMS devices reuse the fabrication techniques that are found in the microelectronics integrated circuit industry. This limits the selection of materials and processes that are feasible for the realization of MEMS devices. READ MORE

  7. 15. Genome evolution and adaptation of a successful allopolyploid, Capsella bursa-pastoris

    Author : Dmytro Kryvokhyzha; Martin Lascoux; Vincent Castric; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; allopolyploidy; population structure; selection; genetic drift; gene expression; parental legacy; genetic load; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär funktionsgenomik; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Functional Genomics;

    Abstract : The term allopolyploid refers to an organism that originated through hybridization and increased its ploidy level by retaining the unreduced genomes of its parents. Both hybridization and polyploidy usually have negative consequences for the organism. READ MORE
