  1. 6. Managing Domestic Wells in Sweden. Investigating the role of domestic wells in ensuring a reliable drinking water supply and assessing their vulnerability to climate change

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Alice Stenfelt; [2023-08-28]
    Keywords : Domestic wells; Individual drinking water supply; Climate change; Sustainable development; Drinking water management; resilience water supply; Climate adaption; Sweden;

    Abstract : Domestic wells provide drinking water for a significant proportion of the population in Sweden, especially in rural areas where public water supplies are not available (Drage, 2022; Hjerne et al., 2021). Domestic wells typically lack regulation (Gunnarsdottir et al., 2020; Stoll et al. READ MORE

  2. 7. Development and Application of an End-of-Life Framework

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

    Author : Daniel Blomberg; David Lorang; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As the global climate crisis becomes more urgent, organizations are forced to find ways of reducing their environmental footprint to meet changing climate policies and consumer demands. As the automotive industry is adapting to the shift from internal combustion engines to electrification, as well as the shift from traditional linear business models to circular ones, there is a chance for new actors entering the market to adopt circular business models from their inception, giving them an edge over incumbent firms who have slower adaption times.

  3. 8. Vacuum Chamber Adaptation for Low-Power Electric Propulsion Testing : Optimizing Anode Configuration and Electrical Interface for Hollow Cathode Testing, and Conceptualizing a Setup for Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing

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

    Author : Therese Bäckström; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric Propulsion; Field Emission Electric Propulsion Testing; FEEP Testing; Thruster Testing; Heaterless Hollow Cathode Testing; HHCTesting; Cathode Testing; Anode Design; Anode Configuration; Electrical Interface; Elektrisk Framdrivning; Fältjonisationsframdrivningstestning; Framdrivningstestning; Värmelös Hålkatodstestning; Katodtestning; Anoddesign; Anodkonfiguration; Elektriskt Gränssnitt;

    Abstract : Electric Propulsion (EP) is widely acknowledged as a crucial technology for future space missions, offering significant propellant savings and enabling exploration of planetary missions with smaller spacecraft (s/c). For precise attitude control of these smaller spacecraft, Field Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) has emerged as a favorable option due to its exceptional thrust controllability. READ MORE

  4. 9. Storm Water Management with BlueGreen Infrastructure in Urban Planning : A case-study in Krokom, Sweden

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, design och hållbar utveckling (2023-)

    Author : Lena Suleiko Allansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable drainage system SuDS ; nature-based solutions; ecosystem services; urban water management; climate change adaption;

    Abstract : As changing climate and growing urban populations present new challenges for managing both the quantity and the quality of storm waterin cities, nature-based solutions such as blue-green infrastructure arebecoming widely considered as an alternative to grey infrastructure. The benefits, above providing storm water management at a lower cost, are increased ecosystem services. READ MORE

  5. 10. Aligning the Innovation Process Routines With Organizational Agility : A Case Study of a Healthcare Firm

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Constantin Catalin Ciorascu; Mohammad Alipanahi; [2023]
    Keywords : Organizational Agility; Innovation Process Routines; Types of Innovations; Healthcare; Medical Device;

    Abstract : Introduction: Traditional organizational routines for the innovation process, like the Stage-Gate Model, are often characterized by rigid and inflexible activities, limiting firms' ability to identify, develop, and commercialize software and digital/connected products and services. Examples of inflexible activities include predefined project milestones, linear progression through development stages, and a lack of iterative feedback loops. READ MORE
