1. 11. Implementation of Level of Development for BIM Collaboration in Timber Building Subsystems Design: A Case Study of I-Joist Construction Elements

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Isabell Gustafsson; [2024]
   Keywords : BIM; I-Joist; LOD; Level of Development; Timber Building Subsystems;

   Abstract : Due to time, cost, and environmental challenges, wood has become a more common building material even for more complex buildings. Implementing the concept of Level of Development (LOD) on timber structures could provide a tool for BIM collaboration that may save cost and time, and in the early stages mediate wood as an available building material.

3. 12. Rock Wedge Stability Assessment : A Comparative Analysis of Limit Equilibrium and Discrete Element Methods

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Vilma Nordh; [2024]
   Keywords : Numerical modelling; wedge stability; 3DEC; UnWedge;

   Abstract : Rock wedge stability is a common concern in underground excavations. Since the wedge stability influences the support design, it is important to use a wedge stability analysis method that can capture factors like excavation geometry, joint parameters and properties, rock mass properties, rock cover, and stress field as accurately as possible.

4. 13. Structural analysis of HZO thin film and electrode using X-ray diffraction

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Elliot Winsnes; [2024]
   Keywords : HZO; hafnia; hafnium dioxide; zirconium dioxide; ferroelectricity; ferroelectric; synchrotron radiation; X-ray diffraction; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Since its discovery in 2011, the ferroelectricity of thin films based on HfO2 has been studied intensively. In particular, thin films with a 1:1 ratio of HfO2 and ZrO2 (HZO) has been of great interest. The ferroelectricity arises from a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic (o) phase of HZO whose prevalence is dependent on the processing conditions. READ MORE

5. 14. Sustainable food packaging based on polyhydroxyalkanoate

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Safana Al-Ashor; [2024]
   Keywords : Biopolymers; Sustainable food packaging; Circular economy; Biobased and biodegradable materials; Food packaging; Processing technologies; Food quality; Shelf-life;

   Abstract : The Norwegian Food Research Institute (Nofima) and the University of Borås worked together to develop this project. The commonly used packaging materials pose a serious threat to the environment, as they are produced from nonrenewable crude oil and cannot decompose naturally. READ MORE

6. 15. Supply Chain Disruptions : A case study on the effects the Covid-19 pandemic and the Ukraine conflict has had on sustainability work within supply chains in the automotive industry

   University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

   Author : Magnus Ramsköld; [2024]
   Keywords : Supply chain; disruptions; resilience; sustainability; automotive; Värdekedjor; störningar; resiliens; hållbarhet;

   Abstract : The invasion of Ukraine during early 2022 resulted in significant disruptions for supply chains globally. With massive delays and resource shortages, many companies have found a need to rethink their approach to resilience to not be as affected by future disruptions of similar proportions. READ MORE
