Datorstödd konstruktion och analys av skyddsbur : Hållfasthet och konstruktion

In motorsports competition, safety reasons require that the vehicle is equipped with some form of protective roll cage. The roll cage should withstand the forces involved in a collision to protect the driver and the co-driver from the vehicle body deformation. The roll cage also works to protect the vehicle from excessive deformations to more easily make any repairs afterwards. For the roll cage to be certified and approved for motorsports competition, it requires that the cage is built after one of the recommended options. One of those options is to design the roll cage like a cross-construction at the driver and co-driver doors.

Ställtidsreduktion i montering av kopplingar

VBG Produkter AB is a process-orientated company that develops, manufactures and markets trailer couplings with belonging coupling equipment, protection equipment against skidding and stands for wagon-bridge for heavy vehicles. The company feels that their set-up time in production for couplings is not at an acceptable level. Due to high demands of customer oriented production the intermediate stock level of included products within the assembly of couplings has gradually increased which has resulted in high inventory holding costs. VBG Produkter applies Kanban in their production, therefore it is important to produce exactly the necessary amount and avoid overproduction. The objective of this project is to suggest appropriate solutions so that VBG Produkter is able to reduce their set-up time in assembly of couplings, by identifying internal and external set-up time for the chosen process bushing cell.

Konsumenters attityder kring livsmedel och livsmedelssäkerhet

Konsumenters attityder till livsmedel och olika aspekter av livsmedelssäkerhet undersöktes i en intervjustudie i Upplands län, i vilken olika frågor kring attityder till livsmedel med fokus på livsmedelssäkerhet ingick. Resultatet visade att det absolut viktigaste för konsumenter när de väljer varor är att livsmedlet smakar gott, då samtliga respondenter uppgav att detta var viktigt. Att konsumenter oroar sig mer för toxiska restsubstanser såsom läkemedelsrester och bekämpningsmedelsrester än för livsmedelsburen smitta framkom, liksom att få uppfattar sitt eget hem som en plats där man kan bli matförgiftad, trots att tidigare studier visat att en stor andel av matförgiftningsfall smittas i sitt hem. Oroande stora andelar av konsumenterna kunde tänka sig att äta olika livsmedel med förhöjd risk att drabbas av matförgiftning såsom otillräckligt upphettad kyckling, och ett flertal enkla men viktiga hygienåtgärder för att undvika korskontaminering uppfattas inte av konsumenterna som viktiga att utföra, vilket kan leda till onödigt många matförgiftningsfall. Djurvälfärd och livsmedelssäkerhet är beroende av varandra och aktuellt arbete visar att svenska konsumenter anser att djurvälfärd är viktigt..

Entreprenörskapsutbildning för framtiden

Increasing innovation and entrepreneurship has been identified as a key target for sustained growth and welfare, both in Sweden and abroad. Therefore, many countries have recognized the need to equip students with entrepreneurship education and to integrate skills associated with entrepreneurship into the various curricula.To shed light on entrepreneurship education within business curricula, a case study focusing on the first two years of the Bachelor program at the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE) was conducted. The study was based on interviews with students, alumni and scholars with a background of entrepreneurship. Insights from respondents were compared with leading research on entrepreneurship education, to evaluate the program's approach.Primary findings from the qualitative analysis showed an overall lack of entrepreneurship education in the early stages of the program. Entrepreneurial "know-how" knowledge was an insufficient component of the SSE program and a barrier for why more students did not pursue a career in entrepreneurship.

Förutsättningar att utforma stationsbatterier i vattenkraftverk med Li-jonteknik

Förebyggande förbättringsarbete med Design for Six Sigma

Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) is a further development of the Six Sigma draft to carry through preventing quality measures in developing and designing of new products and processes. With increasing demands on enterprises development processes to be more safety and faster the need of DFSS arise as a product, process and service development concept in the organisations. Design for Six Sigma aims to improve and structure the development process of an organisation and consider the application of the innovation problem solving. The concept aims to leave the structure of the traditional Six Sigma concept and instead, from an innovative perspective, search for new solutions to existing problems. The concept constitute of a toolbox with a lot of quality tools that are divided into phases in a development model.
