Entrepreneurs have difficulties in performing maintenance activities due to the increasing intensity of train services and failing infrastructure. Annually, the state loses billions of SEK due to delays caused by failures in infrastructure or maintenance not performed on time. The largest amounts of delays occur during winter time, when our infrastructure cannot cope with the climate as it is expo

As aerosol particles are important for global climate effects, their sources and influence on global aerosol particle concentrations need to be quantified. One of the major aerosol sources in the atmosphere is new particle formation (NPF) of new nanometer sized particles in the atmosphere. The influence on the global aerosol concentration due to NPF events is however not well quantified. The goals

Denna studie, som bygger på den kvalitativa metoden, avser att skapa förståelse för hur pedagoger arbetar med undervisning i ämnet svenskundervisning för invandrare genom användandet av sång och musik i språkinlärning.

In this thesis a Direct Current Control (DCC) is implemented for controlling a PMSM. The controller should be implemented in an already existing program. This program is used for testing electrical machines. The new testing method is called Dynamic braking, more information about this method can be read in the report "Performance and efficiency evaluation of FPGA controlled IPMSM under dynami

A low creep rate and a long lifetime are important mechanical properties for corrugated board and its constituent’s linerboard and fluting. These properties ensure that the package protects the goods during the entire duration of transport and storage. This study involves several creep and tensile tests of linerboard in the machine direction (MD). The objective is to investigate how free or rest

Research needs: Glass has been used for a long time, mostly in the window and packaging industry, but lately architects and design engineers have become more and more interested in glass as a load-bearing (building) material. It has become a challenge to use less other materials in the glass-structures or at least not to let it show too much. One area of big interest is bolt fixings. Design engine
