2. 1. Eco-design and product innovation : managing incremental and radical change for environmental compliance

   Author : Thomas Magnusson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : This thesis is about firms determined to gain competitive advantages from environmental demands, about the efforts of engineers employed with the challenge of fulfilling environmental performance targets and about the management and organisation of product development. It is about incremental change, built on established technological knowledge, as well as about radical technological change. READ MORE

4. 2. New Forms of Collaboration in Emergency Response Systems : A framework for participatory design of information systems

   Author : Kayvan Yousefi Mojir; Sofie P Pilemalm; Stefan Holgersson; Björn JE Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : An emergency response systems (ERS) is usually responsible for delivering essential services to save lives and minimise environmental damage in case of small, frequent or large-scale emergencies. The ongoing global financial crisis, lack of professional resources, public sector cuts and rising public expectations are some of the challenges ERSs currently are facing. READ MORE

5. 3. Collaborative development of resource efficient district heating in Sweden

   Author : Sofia Persson; Olof Hjelm; Sara Gustafsson; Mikael Ottosson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : An increased recovery of excess heat from industrial processes and thermal power generation could significantly reduce energy demands. Industrial excess heat-based district heating systems are generally considered resource efficient because they reduce the use of fossil fuels and the emissions of greenhouse gases. READ MORE

7. 5. On Motion Control of Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuators

   Author : Martin Hochwallner; Petter Krus; Kalevi Huhtala; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuator; novel actuator; linear hydraulic actuator; tracking problem; hydraulic servo system; digital fluid power;

   Abstract : Linear Incremental Hydraulic Actuators combine one or more short-stroke cylinders, and two or more engaging/disengaging mechanisms into one actuator with long, medium, or even unlimited stroke length. The motion of each single short-stroke actuator concatenated by the engaging/disengaging mechanisms forms the motion of the linear incremental hydraulic actuator. READ MORE
