Ryan Ruvald presented his licentiate thesis entitled “Prototyping for Product-Service Systems innovation: Insights from the construction equipment industry” in front of an interested audience on thursday afternoon.
Today, Shahryar had a day of presentation and discussion as he defended his PhD thesis “Evaluating Success Factors of Health Information Systems” in front of family, friends and colleagues at Blekinge Institute of Technology. Shahryar was defending his thesis in the research subject of Applied health technology, and after the opponent Prof. Maria Lindén (Mälardalen University) had...
Volvo CE is making steady progress towards realizing their sustainable construction vehicle goals of zero accidents, zero emissions, zero unplanned stops and 10x increase in efficiency. The main strategies include Autonomization, Electrification and Site Optimization. Through a strong partnership with Skanska, a full scale prototype site outside of Göteborg between...
We did get the approval for the Profile+ extension (3 year / 55 MSEK) from the Knowledge Foundation, excellent!This means that we will further deepen the research in digital product development in order to support the transition to a sustainable society, and we will support our partners development of sustainable product-service systems suitable for...
The Knowledge Foundation (hhttp://www.kks.se/) has decided to fund the development of our MSc Programme in Mechanical Engineering (project budget of 2.7 MSEK).
In collaboration with Womengineering (http://womengineer.org/) BTH invited young girls on the “Introduce a Girl to Engineering”-day (http://www.igeday.com/) where we showed the engineering education and created an interface towards being an engineering by allowing girls to meet with students and teachers, and also get a chance to experiment with problem solving.
The Blue Science Park Innovation Day 2019 was yet another successful demonstration of BTH’s PhD students driven research. With a unique blend of industries represented at the event there was quite a buzz around the HoloLens Augmented Reality based prototypes created for autonomous construction vehicle interaction, and the Poppy Robot used for...
Sedan 2013 har BTH tillsammans med företagspartners drivit ett forskningsprojekt med fokus på modelldriven utveckling och beslutsstöd fokuserat på att stödja framtagningen av morgondagens hållbara produkt-tjänstelösningar. Projektet avslutas Mars 2019 och resultat börjar finnas tillgängliga. I samarbete med SIG-PM och Produktutvecklingsakademin höll projektet en resultatsession fokuserat på hur ett modellbaserat arbetssätt kan användas vid...
ABSTRACT Background: Several models suggest how the qualities of a product or service influence user satisfaction. Models such as the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and Delone and McLean Information Systems Success demonstrate those relations and have been used in the context of health information systems. Objective: This study...
ince 2013, one of BTH´s focus area in research has been on innovative product development.Now after five years, an initial evaluation has been made and the results are very positive – the researchers have been active and it is high quality of scientific production.
