  2. 1. Engineering problem solving : The case of the Laplace transform as a difficulty in learning in electric circuits and as a tool to solve real world problems

    Author : Margarita González Sampayo; Caroline Baillie; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; engineering students; understanding; electric circuit theory; learning engineering; Education; Pedagogik;

    Abstract : For engineers it is important to be able to use the ’skill’ of for example handling novel situations in powerful ways and to develop and design. They are expected to be able to understand theories and models and their connection to objects and events in the physical world and being able to apply these models and theories. READ MORE

  4. 2. No environmental problem is an island : Aligning networks of transboundary collaboration to complex policy issue interdependencies

    Author : Johanna Hedlund; Örjan Bodin; Daniel Nohrstedt; Erik Andersson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; complex environmental problems; policy issues; policy issue interdependencies; transboundary governance; networks; collaborative governance; policy issue interdependency networks; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : In recent times, societal and environmental problems have been exhibiting a growing interconnectedness and interdependency. Based on the idea of institutional fit, interdependency on a problem level should be preferably matched with governance arrangements for effective problem-solving. READ MORE

  5. 3. The flight perturbation problem : operational aircraft rescheduling

    Author : Tobias Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : When there is a perturbation in a carefully planned flight schedule, e.g. an aircraft breakdown, it is important to minimize the negative consequences of this disturbance. In this thesis, a model and a number of solution strategies for the Flight Perturbation Problem is presented. READ MORE

  6. 4. Studies in knowledge representation : modeling change - the frame problem : pictures and words

    Author : Lars-Erik Janlert; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; analogical; artificial intelligence; digital; exemplification; frame problem; Goodman; knowledge representation; metaphysics; model; pictorial representation; symbol theory;

    Abstract : In two studies, the author attempts to develop a general symbol theoretical approach to knowledge representation.The first study, Modeling change -the frame problem, critically examines the - so far unsuccessful - attempts to solve the notorious frame problem. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mathematical modelling and Problem Solving in Engineering Education

    Author : Tabassum Jahan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematical modelling; Self-regulation; Engineering education; Beliefs; Case study; Authentic learning; Authenticity; Metacognition; Problem solving; Engineering education research;

    Abstract : Background Innovation and technology have made the 21st century engineering workplace problems more diverse and challenging. Mathematical modelling is being increasingly used as the primary form of engineering design and is fundamental in everyday engineering problem solving. READ MORE
