  1. 1. Overstock of aftermarket parts in Africa at Sandvik Stationary Crushing and Screening

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Mattias Johannesson; [2023]
    Keywords : Inventory management; Overstock; Excessive inventory; Obsolete inventory; Redistribution; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Title: Overstock of aftermarket parts in Africa at Sandvik Stationary Crushing and Screening Author: Mattias Johannesson Supervisor: Fredrik Olsson, Division of Production Management Background: An increase of customer expectations such as demand for more customizable options, shorter lead times and availability puts more and more pressure on a company's logistical processes. With fluctuating demand, inconsistent lead times and uncertainty around the world, variability is present and adds complexity to the logistical processes and needs to be handled appropriately to lower costs and match supply and demand.

  3. 2. Flexible Sector Coupling (FSC) of Electrical and Thermal Sectors via Thermal Energy Storage (TES) : A Case Study on Oskarshamn Energi

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Raúl Calvo García; Jose María Marín Arcos; [2023]
    Keywords : Flexible sector coupling FSC ; district heating DH ; thermal energy storage TES ; heat pump HP ; capacity optimization; dispatch optimization; open-access tools; Flexibel sektorkoppling; fjärrvärme; termisk energilagring; värmepump; kapacitetsoptimering; leveransoptimering; verktyg med öppen tillgång;

    Abstract : The integration of distributed energy sources and systems is of high relevance for the transition towards a more sustainable energy system. Taking into consideration the  amount of emissions produced by the heating sector, which account for at least half of the energy demand in buildings, district heating systems have the potential to play a key role in the transition, by enabling the integration of various energy sources and provide flexible energy services to the grid.

  4. 3. Hitting the Target: An Analysis of Inflation Targeting Policies

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Elin Roslund; Victoria Benckert; [2023]
    Keywords : Inflation Target; Inflation; Generalized Synthetic Control Method; Discretion; Taylor Rule;

    Abstract : Acknowledging that world inflation reached its highest levels in decades in 2022, this paper investigates how the adoption of an inflation targeting regime has affected the inflation level and the inflation variability for a sample of five advanced economies from 1980 until the end of 2020. This paper discusses the implications of inflation targets in relation to the relative output growth across inflation targeting and non-inflation targeting economies to further contribute to the debate about its efficacy.

  5. 4. Implementing DDMRP : Supply Chain transformation Through Inventory Management

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Franklin Aduwa; [2023]
    Keywords : DDMRP; Supply chain management; Inventory management;

    Abstract : An organization's systematic operation and supply chain management are the criteria for developing a sustainable competitive advantage over other companies. However, fulfilling this goal has become increasingly difficult in today's business environment, as traditional planning and control methods were not designed to withstand such difficulty, hence making the supply chain very complex.

  6. 5. A Simulation Study of Variability in Gate-all-Around Nanosheet Transistors

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Virinchi Tirumaladass; [2022]
    Keywords : Gate-all-around; Nanosheet field effect transistors; process variations; variability; TCAD; Gate-all-around; Nanoblad fälteffekttransistorer; processvariationer; variabilitet; TCAD;

    Abstract : Gate-all-around (GAA) nanosheet field effect transistors (NSFETs) seem to be one of the most promising replacement options for FinFETs towards scaling down below to the sub-7nm technology nodes. They offer better electrostatics and control of short channel effects (SCEs) due to their superior control over the channel and their large effective channel width. READ MORE
