Using design-of-experiments techniques for an efficient finite element study of the influence of changed parameters in design

All designs are marred by uncertainties and tolerances in dimen- sions, load levels etc. Traditionally, one has often over-dimensioned to take these uncertainties into account. The demand for optimized designs with high quality and reliability increases, which means that more sophisticated methods have been developed, see e.g. Lochner and Matar (1990). By describing the fluctuations in design para

Power Efficiency for Software Algorithms running on Graphics Processors

Abstract in UndeterminedPower efficiency has become the most important consideration for many modern computing devices. In this paper, we examine power efficiency of a range of graphics algorithms on different GPUs. To measure power consumption, we have built a power measuring device that samples currents at a high frequency. Comparing power efficiency of different graphics algorithms is done by m

I antologibidraget visas att lärande, eller kanske snarare deltagande i olika former av utbildning, rättfärdigas på olika sätt beroende på om de som utbildas är barn eller vuxna. Rättfärdigandet sker genom retoriska konstruktioner av samhället som närmast kan ses som motsatser: barnens skolgång rättfärdigas genom att samhället konstrueras som en, åtminstone värdemässig, konstant; vuxnas deltagande

Engineering of thermometric biosensors and characterisation of redox enzymes for improved performance of biosensors/biofuel cells

The present work is mainly focused on the development of enzyme-based bioanalytical devices, which can further be applied as analytical tools for industrial, medical and environmental applications. The first part of the work deals with the practical applications of thermometric biosensors for determination of various sugars (fructose and lactose) in a real samples. Thermometric biosensors possess

The construction sector tries to take the lead - A sector lead approach to Construction process improvement

In many reports the improvements of the actors in the construction sector have been requested. One explicit factor that has been called for is an increase in cooperation and communication between the different actors. The Swedish construction sector in general has not been swift in accepting new process improvements as they have been put forward by academics or government. There are many possible

The Effects of Cutbacks in Swedish Sickness Benefits

Since 1990 sickness benefits have been reduced in Sweden. In this paper we use data from the labour force survey to study the introduction of a qualification day in 1993. Our main centre of interest is the distributional effects caused by this cutback, and to this end we analyse a large number of interactions between background variables and the reform dummy. Considerable attention is thus paid to
