16. Evaluating An Interactive Troubleshooting System for Heavy Vehicles with Limited Historical Data
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Today’s trucks are built to be modular in order to fit the customer’s specific needs.This means that no two vehicles are alike, and that makes it difficult to create universal models for diagnosis. READ MORE

17. An Evaluation of Mixed Criticality Metric for Mechatronics Systems
University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)Abstract : In the thesis, we studied mechatronics systems which integrate tasks (applications) with different level of criticality on a common embedded system. The integration aims to reduce hardware cost (less processors and other components) and the weight and volume of the system. The power consumption of the system would be also reduced. READ MORE

18. Automated Fault Tree Generation from Requirement Structures
University essay from Linköpings universitet/FordonssystemAbstract : The increasing complexity of today’s vehicles gives drivers help with everything from adaptive cruisecontrol to warning lights for low fuel level. But the increasing functionality also increases the risk offailures in the system. To prevent system failures, different safety analytic methods can be used, e.g. READ MORE

19. Cost effective optimization of system safety and reliability
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fysik och elektroteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolanAbstract : A method able to analyze and optimize subsystems could be useful to reduce project cost, increase subsystem reliability, improve overall aircraft safety and reduce subsystem weight. The earlier the optimization of development of an aircraft in the design phase can be performed, the better the yield of the optimization becomes. READ MORE

20. Simulating production risk at Volvo Powertrain - Developing a simulation tool for decision making
University essay from Lunds universitet/FörpackningslogistikAbstract : How can a small fire at a subcontractor in the USA lead to a multimillion dollar loss at a Swedish telephone company, and how can a single machine breakdown lead to a complete production stop at a production company? With today logistics and production trends, where terms such as Lean Production, Six Sigma, 5S, and World Class Manufacturing are used every day, production companies are introducing streamline production facilities and supply chain where goods and raw material are delivered just in time, where buffer zones are reduced, and where suppliers are reduced to a single source. These are trends that strengthen companies’ competitiveness, but it also makes companies more vulnerable to risk events. READ MORE
