  1. 1. Development of an intervention framework for design, implementation and adoption of occupational exoskeletons

    University essay from KTH/Ergonomi

    Author : Gennaro Alberico; [2022]
    Keywords : Industrial exoskeletons; key facilitators adoption barriers; intervention framework;

    Abstract : During the last few years, wearable technologies or body-worn assistive devices have become very popular within the occupational field. Among them, there are the so-called exoskeletons which have shown a promising potential in several areas ranging from medical care, military to, particularly during the last five years, industrial applications.

    Author : Vincent Steinmetz; [2020]
    Keywords : Fatigue; Variability; Aviation; FRMS; Fatigue Risk Management; Flightcrew; Decision making; NDM; RPD; Complexity; FLMU06; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : With the emergence of industrialisation, the work-life balance has become a point of discussion in many industries, among which the aviation industry. Distortions in the work-life balance became especially apparent when 24/7 economies evolved, and industries made a transition to facilitate and serve these economies. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis of uncertainties in fatigue load assessment : a study on one Kaplan hydro turbine during start operation

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

    Author : Annica Gustafsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Hydro turbine runner; Uncertainty analysis; Fatigue load; Fatigue damage; Propagation of uncertainty.; Vattenkraft; Löphjul; Osäkerhetsanalys; Utmattning; Delskada; Fortplantning av osäkeheter.;

    Abstract : In the future, hydropower plants are expected to operate more flexibly. This will lead to a more varied operation of the turbine and the generator, such as more start and stop in order to stabilise the frequency in the grid. Studies show that these transient operations are more costly in terms of fatigue degradation, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 4. Uppkomst av metaboliska rubbningar hos häst under tävling i distansritt – omvårdnad och förbyggande åtgärder

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Karin Bäck; [2014]
    Keywords : distsansridning; metaboliska problem; dyhydrering; elektrolyt;

    Abstract : During an endurance riding competition the onset of metabolic disorders leading up to elimination from the race are common. As many as 8,7 % of the horses participating in international endurance riding competitions are eliminated due to metabolic causes such as tachycardia, absence of borborygmi, hyperthermia and dehydration.

  6. 5. Virkesflöde och val av hjulsystem på virkesfordon inom Region Iggesund, Holmen Skog

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Resource Management

    Author : Carl Rådström; [2014]
    Keywords : virkesflöde; vägstandard; tillgänglighet; transportavstånd; transportteknik; transportkostnad;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka hur virkesflödet från Region Iggesund varierar under året och belysa orsakerna till detta samt att beräkna transportkostnader och analysera vilka distrikt som skulle kunna ha störst nytta av virkesfordon med Central Tyre Inflation (CTI) eller Super Singel hjul, alternativt hjulsystem som kombinerar de båda teknikerna. Utgångspunkten har varit rationell virkesförsörjning från skog till industri, med så låga virkeslager och transportkostnader som möjligt. READ MORE
