  3. 2. Risk & Policy: The relevance and influence of Aaron Wildavsky’s book Searching for Safety in the safety discourse.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Hans Nagtegaal; [2024]
    Keywords : Wildavsky; Resilience; Anticipation; Cultural Theory; Global Safety; Political Science; Safety Discourse; Social Power; Economy of Safety; Net Benefit; FLMU06; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The main finding of this thesis is that the relevance and influence of Aaron Wildavsky’s book Searching for Safety in today’s safety discourse is limited although Wildavsky may be considered to be the linking pin between RE, HRO and NAT. The safety discourse may benefit from Wildavsky’s work in political science: I.e. READ MORE

  4. 3. THIRD HAND : A solution for the fuel tank assembly at Scania Södertälje

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : SandraMarie Westerberg; Tova Ödesjö; [2023]
    Keywords : Industrial Design Engineering; Ergonomics; Human-centered design; User-centered design; Safety; Third hand; Automotive; Production; Teknisk Design; Ergonomi; Människocentrerad design; Användarcentrerad design; Säkerhet; Tredje handen; Fordons industri; Produktion;

    Abstract : Scania recently introduced a new fuel tank design. This new design arose a need for extra help when mounting the tank in production, which was solved with two little hooks on each tank. These hooks are today known as the current third hand solution. READ MORE

  5. 4. Combustibility study of resin for warm magnet coils used at CERN

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Juan Carlos Lopez Santiago; [2023]
    Keywords : Epoxy resin; flammability; radiation; aging; cone calorimeter; micro combustion calorimeter; thermogravimetric analysis; lateral ignition and flame spread test; chemical composition of polymers; polymers; epoxy composite; polymer composite; failure of epoxy resins; magnetic coil; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : CERN is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, housing multiple accelerators that rely heavily on magnetic coils. These coils are integral to the generation of powerful magnetic fields essential for particle accelerator experiments, detectors, and other equipment. READ MORE

  6. 5. Understanding the effects of TCP-25 and EDTA interaction : A study of the biophysical aspects of a naturally derived peptide formulation with EDTA for topical application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Ebba Kant; [2023]
    Keywords : chronic wounds; EDTA; biophysical aspects; formulation; pharmaceutical technology; Thrombin derived C-terminal peptide; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Chronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improving wound healing.
