  1. 1. Competing on sustainability - A study on stakeholder interaction, becoming truly sustainable and obtaining a sustained competitive advantage in an industry characterized by low sustainability maturity

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Produktionsekonomi

    Author : Kristina Källner; Anna Lundberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Sustainability; cold chain; pharmaceutical industry; stakeholder theory; sustainable business models; VRIO analysis; truly sustainable; competitive advantage; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Although more and more companies are facing increasing pressure to take responsibility for their actions impacting sustainability, the pharmaceutical industry and in extension the cold chain solutions industry, have previously been exempted from scrutiny. Research on sustainability in the industry is lagging, why this master thesis aims to explore how sustainability can be incorporated into the business model while avoiding creating a disconnect between corporate strategy and actual sustainability impact.

  3. 2. Simulations of experimental crack development in ceramic material with notched specimen

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Clas Dahlin; [2022]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; Fracture mechanics; Ceramics; Dynamics; Ballistics; Hållfasthetslära; Brottmekanik; Keramer; Dynamik; Ballistik;

    Abstract : Low-density armour often uses ceramic materials, as their high compressive strength and relatively low weight make the material ideal for moving in the field. The ballistic protection works by redirecting the plastic flow of the projectile radially, which reduces penetration. READ MORE

  4. 3. Concrete in vertical slipforms : A process for determining a suitable concrete composition

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Ellen Gegerfelt; Alva Hasselqvist; [2021]
    Keywords : Slipforming; fresh concrete; workability; consistency; alternative binders; slipform rate; lifting cracks; delamination; lump formation; Glidformsgjutning; färsk betong; arbetbarhet; konsistens; alternativa bindemedel; glidformshastighet; lyftsprickor; delaminering; klumpbildning;

    Abstract : In the construction industry of today, many projects are getting bigger, higher and more complicated than ever before. The most important material in these projects is concrete and the process of casting has developed a lot during the last century. READ MORE

  5. 4. Continuum damage modeling of delamination in paperboard

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper; Lunds universitet/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Erik Jakobsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Creasing; Folding; MD-direction; EB material model; LS-Dyna; eGISSMO; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This work concerns the creasing and folding of a continuum paperboard material model developed by Eric Borgqvist. Creasing is an operation that induces permanent deformation in the material, undertaken for the folding to be performed along a straight fold line without any in-plane cracks. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analysis of Heating Processes for the Production of Bipolar Plates in PEM Fuel Cells

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

    Author : LASSE MATTHIAS REINPOLD; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are a promising alternative to combustion engines and batteries in vehicles. PEMFCs are more efficient than combustion engines, and cars powered by PEMFCs tend to have longer ranges than battery powered cars and has a short fuelling time. READ MORE
