Abstract:
This case explores the challenges of implementing an enterprise system (ES) across a university with a diverse organizational culture. This teaching case describes the process through which Southern University sought to implement the Delta student management system (SMS) and the challenges encountered due to the university’s organizational culture. The project team ran into a change resistant culture with organizational units that enjoyed autonomy in their business processes. Rather than attend to various needs by customizing the system, the project team implemented a plain version of the system. Although this approach ensured the project team was able to complete the implementation on time and within budget, it left behind many dissatisfied users and organizational members, and created resistance within the organization toward the system. Therefore, this case provides opportunities for students to discuss the impact of organizational culture and user resistance on IS implementations as well as the merits and limitations of the strategies employed by the project team to ensure the new system was implemented on time and within budget.

Abstract:
This inquiry focuses on Qallunaat (non-native) teachers' perceptions of their lived experiences teaching and learning in the arctic region of Nunavik, Quebec, Canada. Academic underachievement of Inuit children and high drop out rates in northern schools are a great concern for every community. An important contributing factor to the lack of academic success of Inuit children is the high turnover rate of Qallunaat teachers. Social distancing, isolation and cultural dislocation are major problems that many southern teachers find difficult to confront. Through a year-long Action Research Project in Nunavik focusing on eight Qallunaat teachers, I used a narrative inquiry to explore these teachers' shifting perceptions of their experiences as they attempted to adapt to their Inuit host community. Data confirms that without appropriate preparation and support, Qallunaat teachers perceive that they face overwhelming challenges educating Inuit youth and building relationships with Inuit community members. During my work in this northern community, I observed how these teachers seeking direction within such significant cross-cultural tensions, were confronted with profound existential issues. I examined why their southern perceptions and their northern experiences made them question some fundamental values that are at the core of their identities. I used an interdisciplinary dialogical post-colonial framework to situate these Qallunaat teacher voices in the educational contexts of Nunavik. By listening to these teachers, I began to understand how conflicts in identity arose when teachers' attitudes did not match their perceptions of their positionings in their host community. Methods included formal and informal conversations, individual and group interviews, photovoice and journals. I found that Qallunaat teachers can contribute to the North if they learn to position themselves as compassionate observers and listeners. Through dialogue, Qallunaat teachers can create shared spaces to better understand the particular needs of Inuit community members and consider alternatives and solutions. I provide recommendations to the Kativik School Board that might better prepare and support Qallunaat teachers. This study has direct implications for policy regarding pre-service and in-service education for educators within the Kativik School Board, Quebec Ministry of Education and the McGill Faculty of Education.

Abstract:
Streams in cold regions are characterized by unique hydrological processes that control flow regime and water levels. One of the most important processes is the formation, growth and melting of different types of ice in and around the stream channel during winter. River ice controls major hydrologic events such as winter floods with magnitudes and frequencies often greater than those created by open-water conditions. While river management in northern countries has already recognized high risk of ice damages, the focus of the risk assessment has been mostly aimed towards the local economy; the ecological role of river ice has been less acknowledged. Along rivers in boreal Sweden, riparian vegetation has developed specific zonation with height and age of the plants increasing the further away they are from the stream channel. On lower levels the vegetation is often comprised of short-lived plants, such as annuals and biennials whereas more permanent woody vegetation is found at higher levels. This zonation has most often been explained by the resilience of different growth forms to the inundation regimes, such as the spring flood in northern systems. Within this framework, I investigated which factors drive the ice formation and how ice and ice-induced floods affect riparian and in-stream vegetation. A 3-year survey was conducted of ice formation and vegetation along 25 stream reaches and a set of experiments were used to evaluate ice as a disturbance agent. Reaches far away from lake outlets which had a low input of groundwater and a high velocity and stream power were most prone to form anchor ice, but many other factors also influenced ice formation. Streams with anchor ice experienced more frequent flooding of the riparian vegetation during winter. Our findings suggests that ice and winter floods favour diversity and create habitat heterogeneity for riparian species. On a community level, woody plants such as evergreen dwarf shrubs are eliminated when flooded during winter, opening up patches for other species to colonize, creating a dynamic riparian understory community. Significant changes in river ice conditions could develop with projected changes in climate which would have important geomorphologic, ecological and socio-economic impacts. One implication of climate change could be less ice disturbance and consequently a riparian vegetation in cold regions that slowly changes from forb to dwarf-shrub dominated with a subsequent decrease in species richness. Changes in species diversity and abundance of groups of species related to changes in ice formation could potentially cascade into riparian and in-stream processes such as nutrient cycling, litter decomposition and organism dispersal.

Outstanding Thesis<br>Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>While war in the Arctic appears unlikely at present, this thesis analyzes why an escalation of territorial and resource disputes in the Arctic up to and including the use of force cannot and should not be ruled out. This thesis examines the political, economic, and military interests of the main Arctic powers: Canada, Denmark, Norway, Russia, and the United States to set the scene for an assessment of the factors that could make for cooperation or conflict. Advocates of a Pax Arctica involving regional cooperation underrate the more pragmatic and competitive factors underlying international relations and the actual limits of international institutions and economic interdependence in restraining behavior in an anarchic system. The potential for U.S.-Russian maritime conflict in the region is genuine. Based on the methodology established for this analysis, it can be reasonably assessed that conflict in the Arctic is likely. No time horizon can be determined, however, because much depends on decisions made (or not made) by these same Arctic powers in the coming decades.

Full text
Abstract:
Long-term continuous monitoring of ice break-up on ice shelves and icebergs in Antarctica is essential for a global observation system of climate change and its consequences. While calving of massive pieces of ice from the Antarctic ice shelf is well observed from satellites, numerous ice breaks of smaller volume cannot be systematically monitored and statistically analysed by the existing means of remote sensing and local in-situ observations. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of an alternative monitoring approach based on remote acoustic observations of ice rifting and breaking events on Antarctic ice shelves and icebergs using distant underwater acoustic listening stations in the ocean. This investigation was carried out using long-term continuous sea noise recordings made from 2002 to 2007 at two hydroacoustic stations deployed in the Indian Ocean as part of the International Monitoring System of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty: off Cape Leeuwin in Western Australia (HA01) and off Chagos Archipelago (HA08).Investigations of a number of scientific and technical issues relevant to the main objective were carried out in this study. They include: 1) processing of the CTBT hydroacoustic data from the two IMS stations with the aim of detecting and identifying signals received from Antarctic ice breaking events; 2) investigating the time-frequency arrival structure of the signals expected from ice events using experimental data and numerical modelling of acoustic propagation from Antarctica to the IMS stations in the Indian Ocean; 3) analysing the bearing accuracy of the IMS stations; 4) examining three different schemes for localization of ice events using either one or two IMS stations; 5) analysing the spatial distribution of Antarctic ice events observed over 6 years of data collection and its correlation with the major glacial features of the Eastern Antarctic coastal zone which are most likely sources of newly calved icebergs and underwater noise produced by ice breakup; 6) analysing long-term variations in the occurrence of ice events and their links with changes in climate related metocean characteristics of the Eastern Antarctic coastal zone.A number of important findings and conclusions were made based on the results of this study. It was revealed that Antarctica is one of the major sources of low-frequency underwater noise at the two IMS stations in the Indian Ocean. The transient signals received at the IMS stations from Antarctic ice events consist mainly of a mode one arrival pulse with strong frequency dispersion, which is due to the acoustic propagation characteristics in the near-surface acoustic channel of the polar ocean environment south of the Antarctic Convergence Zone (ACZ). Both HA01 and H08S stations have bearing estimate accuracy for transient acoustic noise in Antarctica of about 0.2° RMS. The bearing error of HA01 also has a systematic component of around 0.8° clockwise. The bearing deviation induced by horizontal refraction of acoustic propagation across the ACZ polar frontal zone and over the continental slopes can be considerable, up to 1° for sources located in the easternmost and westernmost parts of the Eastern Antarctic coastal zone observed from the IMS stations. The localization of Antarctic ice events can be achieved either by triangulation using bearing estimates, if the same event can be detected at both stations, or by estimating the range to the noise source through inversion of mode 1 dispersion characteristic when the signal is detected only at one station.The location of ice events in the Antarctic coastal zone can also be coarsely estimated from the low cut-off frequency of mode 1 measured at the receive station. The majority of ice events observed at HA01 were located within a number of back-azimuth sectors which correspond to the directions to the ice shelves and iceberg tongues which are known as active zones of ice break-up in Eastern Antarctica. The temporal changes in the occurrence frequency of ice events detected at HA01 reveal strong seasonal variations but no significant interannual trend.Based on the main results and findings, this study achieved its primary aim to demonstrate the feasibility of remote monitoring of ice rifting and breaking events on Antarctic ice shelves and icebergs using the IMS hydroacoustic listening stations deployed in the Indian Ocean.

Full text
Abstract:
The vision of this thesis is to study how it is possible to obtain optimised workpieces during metal cutting processes in industry. Specifically, the work is aimed to increase the understanding between the steel characteristics and their link to the chip breaking and tool wear during metal cutting. The emphasis is on the influence of the cleanliness and the characteristics of non-metallic inclusions in the workpiece on the machinability of carburising steel grades. The machinability of a case hardening steel is improved by a M-treatment (additions of Ca). Also, the improved machinability of the M-steels offers an attractive potential to save money which makes it possible to reduce the tooling costs with up to 50%. The improved machinability of Ca-treated steels is correlated to the formation of lubricating slag layers consisting of Ca-enriched sulfide inclusions and oxy-sulfide inclusions, which are formed on the rake face during the machining operation. It is proposed that the formations of slag layers from the workpiece constituents are essential to minimise the chemical degradation of the tool edge due to a contact with the chip. During this process, sulfur minimises the material transfer from the chip flow, whilst Ca-treated impurities have a stabilising effect on the protective deposits made of slag layers. Since there is a remaining industrial need to increase the production rate, whilst maintaining a high quality of the finished parts, the future production will continue to require extreme demands on the quality of workpieces. If the emphasis is focused on the workpiece, it should be possible to obtain a robust manufacturing process. Therefore, the challenge for future steel metallurgists is to develop high performance grades with optimised combined properties.<br>Syftet med denna avhandling är att studera hur det är möjligt att framställa optimala ämnen för skärande bearbetning i industriell skala. Målsättningen med arbetet är att öka förståelsen för ståls egenskaper och dess inverkan på spånbrytning och slitage av verktyg vid skärande bearbetning. Avhandlingen fokuserar på kopplingen mellan arbetsstyckets renhet och inneslutningskarakteristik och dess inverkan på skärbarhet hos sätthärdningsstål. Skärbarheten hos vanligt sätthärdningsstål kan förbättras markant genom en Ca-behandling, dvs. en så kallad M-behandling. Den förbättrade skärbarheten hos M-stål möjliggör stora kostnadsbesparingar, som uppskattas kunna reducera verktygskostnader med upp till 50%. Den förbättrade skärbarheten hos M-stål beror på bildningen utav tribologiska skikt som är anrikade med (Mn,Ca)S- och (CaO)x-Al2O3-S-slagg. Dessa tribologiska skikt bildas på skärverktygets spånsida under ingrepp vid skärande bearbetning och består utav vissa atomer som överförts från det bearbetade ämnet till skäret. Bildandet av ett skyddande skikt anses nödvändigt för att undvika att verktygets skäregg utsätts för ett kemiskt angrepp i kontaktytan med spånflödet. Svavel anses minimera att rent arbetsmaterial överförs till skärverktyget medans kalcium-berikade inneslutningar hjälper till att bilda ett stabilt och skyddande tribologiskt skikt. Det eviga behovet att öka produktionstakten, utan att för dess skull riskera slutproduktens kvalité ställer stora krav på framtidens material. Med utgångspunkt från arbetsstycken så ska det vara möjligt att uppnå en robust industriell produktion. Utmaningen är därför att utveckla högpresterande stål med en förhöjd kombinerad funktionsegenskap.

Abstract:
In recent years, the necessity and opportunity for transforming pulp and paper mills into integrative units for large-scale output of biochemicals, biomaterials, and biofuels have come up in discussions of industrial renewal in the Northern hemisphere (mainly in Canada, Sweden and Finland). This transformation is related to technology shifts as well as changing business models based on new bioproducts due to profoundly new market conditions. The aim of this dissertation is to analyse how wood-based biomass industries – with an emphasis on incumbent pulp and paper industries (PPIs) – are managing this industrial and technological transformation that is taking place beyond the papermaking paradigm. Innovation theories on mature industries, their incumbents, and their propensity for technological lock-in and inertia are well-known. How new entrants and incumbents manage these large shifts is seen as central in understanding the dynamics of new, large-scale sustainable technologies on the one hand and the renewal of large, mature process industries on the other. Three research questions are addressed. First, where are the knowledge and technology frontiers developing in this transformation? Second, how are incumbents of PPIs are managing large market and technology shifts based on existing capabilities and knowledge bases? Third, what are the key mechanisms behind the transformation of PPIs from a process-industry perspective? The hermeneutical insights into the system of biomass technologies in general and the PPI industries in particular were gained by using a qualitative case-study approach, which formed the basis for four research articles and for outlining the empirical context and key words search of the quantitative bibliometric methods in a fifth research article. The research findings and main contributions address an identification of the, analytical, “formal”, science-based technology frontiers from a knowledge base perspective.  Old industrialised forest/PPI nations tended to specialize in rather slow growing, forest-based frontiers. They seem to have stayed close to the research trajectories of their woody raw material and knowledge base with the exception of North America. However, this not the entire explanation of transformation and technology development. Chemical pulp mills, in several cases developed into biorefineries, are the nexus of the emerging development block. They are contributing with products in a bioeconomy that is actively moving away from fossils and polluting materials (such as cement, cotton, plastics). In addition, demo plants (potentially nurturing hundreds of bioproducts) that are present at mill sites and involve different stakeholders, can act as the interface between analytical and synthetic knowledge bases that otherwise are difficult to combine in the upscaling phases of process industries. The response of PPI organizations to shifts in both technology and business models is also explained by the concept of diverging innovations of non-assembled products. These are part of a diversification of an industry from a forest industry perspective, and also of a diversification that may enter trajectories of several by-products and side-streams of the pulp “biorefinery” mill, and have analogies to a product-tree and to the material transformation flow of its production systems. But it is also a phenomenon of synergies in a broader multi-sectorial perspective, i.e. new sets of related products/processes that are able to replace industries of non-assembled products under the above-mentioned, new market conditions. The phenomenon of diverging innovations can be regarded as both an empirical contribution – the breaking up of a closed integrated process industry into something new with several emerging and integrative industries as a response to the large shifts in papermaking and sustainable needs in society – and as a theoretical remark on the model for non-assembled products presented by Utterback (1994).<br>Under de senaste åren har nödvändigheten och möjligheten att omvandla massa- och pappersbruk till integrerade produktionsenheter för storskalig produktion av biokemikalier, biomaterial och biobränslen uppkommit i diskussioner om industriell förnyelse på norra halvklotet - främst i Kanada, Sverige och Finland. Denna omvandling är relaterad till teknikskiften samt förändrade affärsmodeller baserade på nya bioprodukter och kraftigt ändrade marknadsförutsättningar. Syftet med avhandlingen är att analysera hur vedbaserade industrier – med betoning på befintliga massa- och pappersindustrin - hanterar denna industriella och tekniska omvandling utanför det traditionella papperstillverkningsparadigmet. Innovationsteorier om mogna branscher, deras benägenhet för teknisk inlåsning och tröghet är välkända. Hur nya och etablerade aktörer hanterar dessa stora förändringar ses som central för att förstå dynamiken i ny, storskalig, hållbar teknik å ena sidan och förnyelse av mogna processindustrier å andra sidan. Tre forskningsfrågor behandlas. Först, var utvecklas kunskaps- och teknikfronter i denna omvandling? För det andra, hur hanterar etablerade aktörer i massa- och pappersindustrin  stora marknads- och teknologiskiften baserade på befintliga kunskapsbaser? För det tredje, vilka är de huvudmekanismerna bakom omvandlingen av massa- och pappersindustrin ur ett processindustriellt perspektiv? Förståelsen för det biomasseteknologiska systemet i allmänhet och massa- och pappersindustrin i synnerhet erhölls genom att använda kvalitativa fallstudier och metoder. De låg till grund för fyra forskningsartiklar och utmejslade den empiriska kontexten för kvantitativa, bibliometriska metoder i en femte forskningsartikel. Forskningsresultaten utgörs bl a av en identifiering av analytiska, "formella", vetenskapligt baserade teknikfronter. Äldre skogsindustriländer tenderar att specialisera sig i långsamväxande, skogsbaserade teknikfronter. De följer forskningsbanor närmare deras vedråvaru- och kunskapsbaser (med undantag av Nordamerika). Men det är inte hela förklaringen till teknikutvecklingen och dess omställningspotential. Kemiska massabruk, i flera fall utvecklade till bioraffinaderier, kan utgöra hävstången för ett framväxande utvecklingsblock. De bidrar med produkter i en bioekonomi som aktivt rör sig bort från fossila och resursineffektiva material och processer (såsom cement, bomull, plast). Dessutom kan demonstrationsanläggningar härbärgera en storskalig testmiljö för hundratals bioprodukter som är placerade i närheten av massafabriker och som involverar forsknings-, industri- och samhällsintressenter. De kan ävenfungera som gränssnitt mellan analytiska och syntetiska kunskapsbaser som annars är svåra att kombinera i uppskalningsfaser. Massa- och pappersindustrins omvandling förklaras också av begreppet divergerande innovationer av icke-sammansatta produkter. Dessa är delvis en diversifiering av en bransch ur ett skogsindustriellt perspektiv, delvis en diversifiering som kan generera i biprodukter och sidoströmmar, som har analogier med produktträd och påminner om det materiella transformationsflödet i det egna produktionssystemet. Divergerande innovationer kan ge ett synergifenomen ur ett bredare sektoriellt perspektiv, dvs nya uppsättningar av produkter och processer som kan ersätta industrier med icke-sammansatta produkter under de nya marknadsförhållandena som ovan beskrivits. Fenomenet med divergerande innovationer kan betraktas som både ett empiriskt bidrag - att bryta upp en sluten, integrerad processindustri till något nytt med flera framväxande och integrerande näringar som ett svar på de stora förändringarna i industrin och i samhället – och också som en kritik av modellen för icke-sammansatta produkter som tidigare presenterats av Utterback (1994).<br><p>QC 20160829</p>

Abstract:
Abstract Recently, more ice breaking vessels have been built due to improving world trade. Therefore, these vessels should be designed to withstand both extremely high mechanical impact and abrasion damages sustained while operating in pack ice, in addition to the very corrosive environment. In order to minimize the mechanical damage, the hulls are coated with anti abrasion and low ice friction coatings such as epoxy or solvent free epoxies. All these coatings require the use of special hot feed plural component pumps, high grade surface preparation and coating application procedures and application conditions are taken into consideration. This study was carried out in order to establish and to verify the correct methods for the application of these coatings and to confirm the most suitable coating procedures additionally the prospect of improved workability block painting as opposed to painting at dock stage for new building. We also investigated the general physical properties characteristics such as drying times, pot life, and adhesion strength on different surface preparation grades.

Full text
Abstract:
Using the experience gained from multi purpose icebreakers operating in the Beaufort Sea as well as from the Swedish icebreaker Oden it is possible to design and construct life boats that will be capable of traversing any first year ice in the ramming mode. Outward sloping frames in the water line all around the ship will guarantee the ship’s ability to survive ice pressure conditions. This paper describes an ice breaking life boat with a displacement of just over 200 tonnes with a propulsion power of about 1 MW with room for 250 people in a high state of safety. Detailed scantlings and weights are presented based on a hull form in its entirety built of flat plates. Design concepts to deal with burning oil on top of the water and icing conditions in a sea state during freezing conditions are presented in some detail.

Abstract:
Abstract Paper deals with numerical assessment of a detachable icebreaking bow, that uses novel ice breaking technology. With the new technology, significantly smaller vessels are required for the ice breaking and the ice breaking capacity is exploited only when necessary. This is achieved by conceptually new ice breaking mechanism, where the ice is broken under 3-point bending mechanism. The focus is on ice fields with the maximum ice thickness up to 0.9 m.

Abstract:
Geopolitical risks and tensions are nowadays regularly presented by policymakers and analysts as key conditioning factors of economic activity in both the short and the medium-run. Widely accepted operational measures of geopolitical risks tend to be based on counting the number of newspaper articles related to adverse geopolitical events, in particular following the ground-breaking paper of Caldara and Iacoviello (2022) in which they build their Geopolitical Risk (GPR) indexes. In this paper we propose one avenue to make further progress in the measurement of such risks. We provide a decomposition of GPR by exploiting the idea that the geopolitical risks that a country faces can be traced back to the countries or entities that are the source of those risks. In this regard, we exploit the idea that geopolitical risk linked to a specific geography or political entity can be interpreted as a “bilateral GPR”, and that the aggregation of such bilateral GPRs provides a natural way of interpreting the overall GPR index. We show that our indexes add distinct information from the benchmark GPR, and together form a more accurate representation of the geopolitical tensions currently present between the major economies. We also show that the geographical origin of a given GPR shock determines its macroeconomic effect in a given economy (as computed from standard VAR models), both in terms of the intensity of such effect and even its sign (i.e. whether a particular GPR shock causes GDP to increase or decrease).
