Abstract:
Abstract. The successful bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics (Beijing 2022, officially known as the XXIV Olympic Winter Games) has greatly stimulated Chinese enthusiasm towards winter sports participation. Consequently, the Chinese ski industry is rapidly booming due to enormous market demand and government support. However, investing in ski areas in unreasonable locations will cause problems from an economic perspective (in terms of operation and management) as well as geographical concerns (such as environmental degradation). Therefore, evaluating the suitability of a ski area based on scientific metrics has become a prerequisite for the sustainable development of the ski industry. In this study, we evaluate the locational suitability of ski areas in China by integrating their natural and socioeconomic conditions using a linearly weighted method based on geographic information system (GIS) spatial analysis combined with remote sensing, online, and field survey data. The key indexes for evaluating natural suitability include snow cover, air temperature, topographic conditions, water resources, and vegetation, whereas socioeconomic suitability is evaluated based on economic conditions, accessibility of transportation, distance to a tourist attraction, and distance to a city. As such, metrics ranging from 0 to 1 considering both natural and socioeconomic conditions are used to define a suitability threshold for each candidate region for ski area development. A ski area is considered to be a dismal prospect when the locational integrated index is less than 0.5. The results show that 84 % of existing ski areas are located in areas with an integrated index greater than 0.5. Finally, corresponding development strategies for decision-makers are proposed based on the multicriteria metrics, which will be extended to incorporate potential influences from future climate change and socioeconomic development. However, the snowmaking model with local data should to be used to further analyze the suitability for a specific ski area.

Abstract:
Ski movement plays an important role during landing preparation, as well as in the whole ski jumping performance. Good landing preparation timing and correct ski position increase the jump length and reduce the impact forces. Inertial motion units (IMUs) placed on the skis could constitute a promising technology for analyzing the ski movements during training. During regular summer trainings, 10 elite athletes (17 ± 1 years) performed jumps while wearing IMUs and wireless force insoles. This set-up enabled the analysis of a possible correlation between ski movements and ground reaction force (GRF) during landing impact. The results showed that the pitch during the landing preparation is the most influential movement on the impact kinetic variables since it is related to the angle of attack, which affects the aerodynamics. The ski position at 0.16 s before landing did not influence the kinetics because the athlete was too close to the ground. During the impact, the roll angle did not correlate with GRF. Moreover, each athlete showed a different movement pattern during the flight phase. Concluding, the combination of IMUs and force insoles is a promising set-up to analyze ski jumping performance thanks to the fast placement, low weight, and high reliability.

Abstract:
Climate change affects snowpack properties indirectly through the greater need for artificial snow production for ski centers. The seasonal snowpacks at five ski centers in Central Slovakia were examined over the course of three winter seasons to identify and compare the seasonal development and inter-seasonal and spatial variability of depth average snow density of ski piste snow and uncompacted natural snow. The spatial variability in the ski piste snow density was analyzed in relation to the snow depth and snow lances at the Košútka ski center using GIS. A special snow tube for high-density snowpack sampling was developed (named the MM snow tube) and tested against the commonly used VS-43 snow tube. Measurements showed that the MM snow tube was constructed appropriately and had comparable precision. Significant differences in mean snow density were identified for the studied snow types. The similar rates of increase for the densities of the ski piste snow and uncompacted natural snow suggested that the key density differences stem from the artificial (machine-made) versus natural snow versus processes after and not densification due to snow grooming machines and skiers, which was relevant only for ski piste snow. The ski piste snow density increased on slope with decreasing snow depth (18 kg/m³ per each 10 cm), while snow depth decreased 2 cm per each meter from the center of snow lances. Mean three seasons maximal measured density of ski piste snow was 917 ± 58 kg/m³ the density of ice. This study increases the understanding of the snowpack development processes in a manipulated mountainous environment through examinations of temporal and spatial variability in snow densities and an investigation into the development of natural and ski piste snow densities over the winter season.

Full text
Abstract:
The ski deflection with the associated temporal and segmental curvature variation can be considered as a performance-relevant factor in alpine skiing. Although some work on recording ski deflection is available, the segmental curvature among the ski and temporal aspects have not yet been made an object of observation. Therefore, the goal of this study was to develop a novel ski demonstrator and to conceptualize and validate an empirical curvature model. Twenty-four PyzoFlex® technology-based sensor foils were attached to the upper surface of an alpine ski. A self-developed instrument simultaneously measuring sixteen sensors was used as a data acquisition device. After calibration with a standardized bending test, using an empirical curvature model, the sensors were applied to analyze the segmental curvature characteristic (m−1) of the ski in a quasi-static bending situation at five different load levels between 100 N and 230 N. The derived curvature data were compared with values obtained from a high-precision laser measurement system. For the reliability assessment, successive pairs of trials were evaluated at different load levels by calculating the change in mean (CIM), the coefficient of variation (CV) and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC 3.1) with a 95% confidence interval. A high reliability of CIM −1.41–0.50%, max CV 1.45%, and ICC 3.1 > 0.961 was found for the different load levels. Additionally, the criterion validity based on the Pearson correlation coefficient was R2 = 0.993 and the limits of agreement, expressed by the accuracy (systematic bias) and the precision (SD), was between +9.45 × 10−3 m−1 and −6.78 × 10−3 m−1 for all load levels. The new measuring system offers both good accuracy (1.33 × 10−3 m−1) and high precision (4.14 × 10−3 m−1). However, the results are based on quasi-static ski deformations, which means that a transfer into the field is only allowed to a limited extent since the scope of the curvature model has not yet been definitely determined. The high laboratory-related reliability and validity of our novel ski prototype featuring PyzoFlex® technology make it a potential candidate for on-snow application such as smart skiing equipment.

Abstract:
Cross-country skiing has developed to become one of the most competitive winter sports, where a skier can win by fractions of seconds. Joint efforts between ski technicians and scientist have allowed the development of methodologies to prepare the ski surface, yet much of the knowledge up to date is based on the experience of the technicians.  In this sense, much attention is focused on the ski base, given that the friction at the base is an important factor that will define how fast a ski can glide. Ski base preparation is an extensive procedure, due to the several parameters that have to be taken into account. Much disagreement has risen regarding the best way to optimize the base. Thus, a complete characterization of the ski base can help to provide some clarity on the factors that affect friction.   This work presents the results of the characterization of the ski base through the preparation process by observing and measuring different aspects, using characterization techniques such as LOM, optical profilometry, contact angle, DSC and XCT. The results suggest that the mechanical machining of the surface can influence wax retention and hydrophobicity. Furthermore, it is seen that wax is present after the first waxing step, despite the constant brushing and scraping. No major changes were observed for the crystallinity. Finally, the amount of graphite on the surface was quantified. This is hoped to be helpful for ski technicians and athletes alike to improve the performance of their skis.

Abstract:
Traditionally when designing dams and spillways, experiments in physical scale models are conductedin order to determine whether or not the design fulls it purpose, and to identify and avoid undesiredproblems, such as unfavourable ow patterns and unwanted water splatter. Physical models can oftenbe expensive and time consuming to build, and often suer from scale eects that in uence the results.Uniper and Vattenfall have recently done experiments in a physical 1:50 scale model of the dam Stornnforsen,in order to test new solutions for the energy dissipation from the spillways. One of the testedsolutions is a ip bucket at the bottom of the right surface spillway.In this project the same solution is numerically modelled, using the CFD software ANSYS® Fluent®,and the results are compared to those from the experiments. The CFD simulations are done both in fullscale and model scale, in order to identify potential scale eects. The aspects that are compared are theheight and length of the jet from the ip bucket.In addition to the CFD simulations, the height and length are also calculated semi-empirically, usingtwo dierent methods.Altogether the results correspond quite well to the experimental values. Some possible scale eects areobserved, where the jet from the full scale simulation is more dispersed than the jet from the model scalesimulation. The jet trajectory from the full scale simulation is also a bit lower than the jet from theexperiments and model scale simulations.The grid independence for the simulations is not quite satisfactory, and the grid should be rened to getmore reliable results. Due to lack of time and computational power any further grid renement is notdone in this project.

Abstract:
A research on analysing the feasibility and the benefits obtained from the utilisation of the heat surplus from temperature independent snowmaking systems is proposed. The interest of this research relies on the fact that it is a way of making it viable both economically and environmentally, to use these systems, which are the solution for snow scarcity due to global warming.This will be done by studying the performance of three different alternatives for the installation of a TIS, considering it with and without heat recovery in order to show the importance of the latter. The study will be performed for the ski resort of Astún, in the Spanish Pyrenees, considering the desire to guarantee a ski slope of 3 km from November till end of April. The three cases studied are: • Case I: Temperature Independent Snowmaking system without heat recovery • Case II: Temperature Independent Snowmaking system with direct heat recovery • Case III: Temperature Independent Snowmaking system with direct heat recovery and snow storage The feasibility of each of the cases will be studied based on costs and energy savings and consumptions, while ecological impact, maintenance costs or the interest rates will not be included in order to simplify the results. The heat recovery will be performed thanks to a CO2 heat pump that will deliver over 6 GWh through water at 70 ºC to the residential and commercial buildings of the ski resort. The heat recovery has only been studied in detail for direct recovery, but the possibility of indirect heat recovery would be interesting in other situations, therefore, it has also been briefly described.As a way of introducing and justifying the project, a literature review has been performed, on the impact of climate change and the need for snowmaking, and also on the different snowmaking technologies and their limitations, leading finally to the need for temperature independent snowmaking. Moreover, calculations and simulations including heat transfer, fluid dynamics and theory of refrigeration technology are conducted. Finally, putting that together with estimated investment costs and prices gathered either from available public sources or personal communication with suppliers, the final comparison of the cases is performed.Based on the obtained results, the most suitable solution for the ski resort of Astún, considering the current heat demand of its buildings, is the case II, installation of a TIS with direct heat recovery. This case has a total investment cost of 1.957.464 €, and due to the savings generated from the reused heat, it comes with yearly savings of -249.872 €, which implies a payback time lower than 8 years, making it the most viable alternative.

Abstract:
Kulturen kring skidåkning i Sverige är väldigt stark, och utförsåkning är ett fritidsintresse som många svenskar delar. Sporten kan utföras på många olika platser runt om i landet, dock finns det vissa unika platser där just skidåkning är det främsta syftet med platsen. Dessa platser kallas skidorter och präglas av att de erbjuder unika möjligheter till skidåkning. För att möjliggöra besöken av dessa orter krävs det även att besökarna har någonstans att bo. De byggnader som upprättas på denna typ av plats kan ha karaktäristiska drag till följd av att de ska vara optimala för skidåkares upplevelse. Vidare kan processen med dess upprättande påverkas av flertal olika faktorer. Syftet med arbetet är att hitta juridiska och tekniska faktorer som påverkar byggandet av fritidsbostäder på skidorter, samt att analysera vilken effekt dessa kan komma att ha på projekt på denna typ av plats. Arbetet inleds med en litteraturstudie varpå områden inom fastighetsjuridik, fastighetsutveckling och omsättning på skidorter berörs. Därefter har det genomförts en fallstudie, varpå tre av de större skidorterna i Sverige har använts som grund för datainsamlingen. Insamlingen av data har gjorts genom analys av detaljplaner för utvalda områden på orterna, samt genom intervjuer med planarkitekter och exploatör som har en kollpling till orterna. Slutsatsen tyder på att det finns såväl juridiska som tekniska faktorer som påverkar exploateringen på skidorter, och att dessa har olika effekt och utgångspunkt. Det kan bland annat röra sig om riksintressen, terrängens utformning eller att marknaden efterfrågar något som exempelvis en bastu. För att erhålla ett optimalt projekt på denna typ av plats bör alla faktorer tas i beaktning.<br>The culture of skiing is very big in Sweden, and downhill skiing is a popular activity among swedes. The sport can be performed in a lot of different places around the country, but there are some unique places where skiing is the main purpose of the place. These places are called ski resorts and are characterized by the fact that they offer unique opportunities for skiing. To enable the visits of these places, it is also required that the visitors have somewhere to live. The buildings erected on this type of site can have characteristic features as a result of being optimal for skiers' experience. Furthermore, the process of its establishment can be influenced by several different factors. The purpose of the paper is to find legal and technical factors that affect the construction of recreational homes on ski resorts, and to analyze what effect these may have on projects in this type of place. The work begins with a literature study in which areas within real estate law, property development and sales of ski-passes are affected. The work has then been carried out through a case study, whereupon three of the larger ski resorts in Sweden have been used as the basis for the data collection. The collection of data has been done by analyzing zoning for selected areas of the resorts, as well as by interviews with plan architects and developers who have a cluster to the resorts. The conclusion suggests that there are both legal and technical factors that affect the development of ski resorts, and that these have different effects and starting points. In order to obtain an optimal project on this type of site, all factors should be taken into consideration.

I studien tas måttlistor fram för tre barnplagg med funktionsdetaljer. Plaggen graderas för att kontrollera att skillnadsintervallerna är rimliga att skicka vidare till produktion. Studien genomförs mot ett företag som uppgiften utformas tillsammans med och som bidrar med material i form av tyg, provplagg att utgå ifrån, samt handledning.Metoden för studien är huvudsakligen experimentell forskning i form av avmätning, konstruktion, gradering och sömnad. Underlag för den experimentella forskningen består av litteratur. Huvudfokus ligger på gradering då plaggen i studien omfattar ett stort storleksspann innehållande 12 storlekar vilka är 86-152 centilong. Utöver detta kommer funktionsdetaljer samt passform att behandlas i studien. I rapporten undersöks om det är rimligt att arbeta i ett stort storleksspann där rekommenderad indelning av barnstorlekar frångås. Utöver detta undersöks även om samma kragkonstruktion kan användas till två olika jackor samt hur raglanärm bör graderas utan att minska rörelsen i ärmen.Genom att först mäta av och utvärdera de plagg som företaget tillhandahåller uppnås resultat. Därefter konstrueras och sys plaggen med funktionsdetaljer upp för att slutligen graderas. Avslutningsvis skapas måttlistor för samtliga plagg som baserar sig på framtagen gradering och som slutligen överlämnas till företaget.The main purpose of this study is to create measurement charts for three garments for children with functional features. Garments are graded to control measurements before being sent to production. The study is created in collaboration with a company who contributes with fabric, garment samples and guidance.The method of this study is mainly experimental in form of construction, grading and sewing. Literature is used as reference for the experimental parts of the study. The main focus is grading the garment which involves 12 sizes, 86-152 centilong. Functional features and fit are also a part of the study.The report examines the equity of grading in a large size range that doesn’t correspond with the chosen literature. Furthermore the study examines if the same collar construction can be used for two different jackets and how a raglan sleeve should be graded without reducing the movement in the sleeve.Result is created by measuring and evaluating samples from the company. New garments are constructed, graded and sewn as final samples with functional features. Finally measurement charts are created based on the grading and are presented to the company.<br>Program: Designteknikerutbildningen

This is a master thesis report for MSc in Industrial Design Engineering at Luleå University of Technology. It is a development project where a wax-bench for cross-country skiing has been developed. The wax-bench have been developed to facilitate the clean-up for the user and to gather all wax-accessories at one place. In this report the entire project can be followed from start to finish, how the requirements were found, who is the user, what should the product handle and how was the ideas ge- nerated. The final result is a wax- box that is vacuum formed and folded in the middle. In the box there are adjustable profiles to place the ski on and an adjustable attachment part in the center that attaches to the skis binding. The box acts as a collector of the waste that is produced when waxing skis, and as storage of waxing accessories when not in use. How to install the accessory in the box is not yet determined, but the idea is to develop a specific bag that fits perfectly in the wax-box and includes all the usual accessories. This bag should then be taken out when you wax and put back in the box after complete the waxing.<br>I den här rapporten kan man följa ett examensarbete för civilingenjörsprogrammet Tek- nisk Design på Luleå Tekniska Universitet.

Abstract:
Preliminary experiments indicated that an acid casein co-precipitate could be produced by extrusion from skim milk powder (SMP). In assessing the problems encountered, experiments were designed to model and optimize the coagulation/washing process using response surface methodology (RSM), to minimize residual whey components and losses of fines. This study yielded useful information relative to improving our understanding of the coagulation mechanism and the most important variables affecting the process. In addition, RSM allowed multiresponse optimization of acid casein production using unique and newly developed optimization techniques. In order to simplify the process, an extruder die was designed to assist with the dewheying process, however, plugging problems occurred due to screw design limitations. Studies were implemented to determine the rheological behaviour of sodium caseinate and to evaluate the extruder performance in terms of energy consumption, and in terms of mixing and conveying through mathematical description of residence time distributions in the extruder. The knowledge gained from these studies was integrated to produce acid casein and sodium caseinate at pilot plant level and to conceive a plant layout of the process for the dairy industry. The process developed has many advantages, including the ability to produce a high quality product.

Harrison, Katherine. "Discursive skin : Entanglements of gender, discourse and technology." Doctoral thesis, Linköpings universitet, Tema Genus, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-64127.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between gender, discourse and technology, and the resulting construction of bodily norms, in a contemporary environment dominated by info- and bio-technologies. The premise from which this study starts is that the ‘intra-action’ between gender, discourse and technology plays a central role in shaping contemporary identities. The study is based on close readings of material from three case studies: cyberpunk fiction, (in)fertility weblogs and the World Health Organisation guidelines on naming of biotechnologies. The distinctive combination of the three case studies provides a unique perspective on the relationship between gender, discourse and technology, showing how it shifts across different contexts, and demonstrating the socio-historical contingency of the bodily norms produced therein. This study is comprised of three empirical texts, one theoretical text and a kappa. The analysis shows how innovative cyberpunk narratives challenge not only human/non-human boundaries, but also genre and gender conventions. The specific format of the blog allows women’s experiences of infertility to be heard and produces hybrid discourses which challenge contemporary authoritative discourses about femininity. The third case study explores the assignment of International Nonproprietary Names to new biotechnologies, and the implications of this on the construction of patients’ bodies. Finally, the theoretical text contributes to existing feminist analyses of technoscience by proposing a new tool called abject/noise for examining disruptions to discursive and bodily coherence. This tool is then tested on a series of documents about the assignment of International Nonproprietary Names to new biotechnologies. Throughout, the importance of ‘situated knowledges’ is emphasised, both in how gender, discourse and technology are understood, but also in the norms produced and the position of the researcher.<br>Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka relationen mellan genus, diskurs och teknik och hur denna relation bidrar till att konstruera vissa typer av kroppsnormer, speciellt som vår samtid infärgas av informationsteknik och bioteknik. Utgångspunkten för denna studie är att ’intra-action’ mellan genus, diskurs och teknik spelar en central roll i utformningen av samtida identiteter. Studien bygger på närläsningar av material från tre fallstudier: cyberpunk-litteratur, in/fertilitetets-bloggar och Världs-hälsoorganisationens riktlinjer för namngivning av bioteknik. Kombinationen av de tre fallstudierna ger ett unikt perspektiv på relationen mellan genus, diskurs och teknik. Den visar hur relationen skiftar mellan olika sammanhang, och hur denna är kulturellt villkorad och därmed tillåter vissa kroppsliga normer att upstå och cirkulera. Denna undersökning består av tre empiriskt grundade texter, en mer teoretisk text och en kappa. Den försten analysen visar hur innovativa cyberpunk berättelser inte bara utmanar föreställningar kring det mänsklig / icke-mänskliga gränser, utan också själva genren i sig och dess kulturella konventionerna kring genus. Det specifika format webbloggen (eller blogg) i den andra fallstudien tillåter kvinnors upplevelser av infertilitet att höras och producerar genreöverlappningar och igen-kännanden som utmanar samtida normativ diskurser om reproduktiv kvinnlighet. Den tredje fallstudien undersöker tilldelningen av ett så kallat Internationellt generiskt namn till nya biotekniska produkter, och konsekvenserna detta får för konstruktionen av patienternas genusifierade kroppar. Slutligen bidrar den teoretiska texten till befintliga feministiska analyser av ’teknovetenskap’ genom att föreslå ett nytt verktyg som kallas ’abject/noise’ för att undersöka störningar i diskursiva och kroppsliga sammanhang. Detta verktyg testats sedan också analytiskt på dokumentar som rör tilldelningen av Internationellt generiskt namn till ny bioteknik. Genom hela avhandlingen läggs tonvikten på ’situerad kunskap’, både gäller hur genus, diskurs och teknik förstås kontextuellt, hur normer blir till och hur forskaren positionerar sig.

Abstract:
Currently, there are about 200 ski resorts in Russia from Smolensk to Chukotka, which are located both in the low mountains (GC "Tyagacheva", "Sarochany", etc.), and in the middle mountains ("Abzakovo", "Bannoe Lake", etc. ) and highlands (regions of the Elbrus region, Dombay, Krasnaya Polyana, etc.). More than six million Russians go downhill skiing and snowboarding every year.&#x0D; Over the years, the quality of sports equipment and track equipment has changed significantly, which has led to an increase in speeds, an increase in injuries and a change in teaching methods. Currently, a large number of people die and are seriously injured at ski resorts every year due to the low quality of training in safe skiing, lack of control over the work of instructors, and the irresponsible attitude of the holders of ski resorts to the safety of providing services on the ski slopes.

Abstract:
The ski industry in Colorado is the largest in the United States and makes up a significant portion of the state’s tourism revenue, but changes in the climate threaten the future of this highly weather-dependent business. In recent years, many ski resorts have taken steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in an effort to mitigate the effects shorter winters, less snowfall, and continued drought are having on the future viability of the industry. Energy efficiency and renewable energy projects are common strategies to reduce emissions; less common, however, are resort-wide analyses of distributed generation (DG) systems combining traditional and alternative energy sources. The intent of this study is to evaluate the economic and technical feasibility of a hybrid conventional-renewable DG system at Vail Resort. Electrical and thermal loads for Vail’s mountain operations were used to analyze three DG technologies; combined heat and power (CHP), photovoltaics (PV), and horizontal axis wind turbines. Technologies were chosen based on a resource assessment as well as input from site managers and analyzed using the Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables (HOMER). The results indicate that the most cost-competitive DG system is a 700 kilowatt (kW) natural gas-fired CHP plant used to meet the site’s base load during the summer months. Although CHP systems are generally most effective at displacing conventional grid-based power for facilities with little seasonal load variation, the findings of this study align closely with an existing system at Snowbird Resort in Utah. A small 700 kW CHP system could provide approximately 31% of annual electricity use and 24% of annual thermal energy needs based on the energy model used in this analysis. Furthermore, annual energy costs could be reduced by 3% and carbon emissions by 11%. Additional analyses are needed to more precisely determine the optimal system for Vail and the authors recommend that future studies include the energy use from base operations in addition to the mountain area considered in this analysis. The additional base area energy load during the summer could potentially make a larger CHP system more viable with subsequent cost and carbon emission savings. Additionally, site-specific resource data such as biomass production and ridge top wind speeds could aid in more definitively eliminating these technologies from consideration.

Full text
Abstract:
In recent years, mission-oriented approaches have received growing interest in science, technology and innovation (STI) policies against the background of two developments. First, while so-called “horizontal” or “generic” approaches to research, technology and innovation policies have largely been successful in improving the general innovation performance or the rate of innovation, there are perceived limitations in terms of insufficiently addressing the direction of technological change and innovation. Second, “grand societal challenges” emerged on policy agendas, such as climate change, security, food and energy supply or ageing populations, which call for thematic orientation and the targeting of research and innovation efforts. In addition, the apparent success of some mission-oriented initiatives in countries like China, South Korea, and the United States in boosting technological development for purposes of strengthening competitiveness contributed to boosting the interest in targeted and directional government interventions in STI. Against the backdrop of this renewed interest in mission-oriented STI policy, the OECD has addressed the growing importance of this topic and launched a project looking into current experiences with Mission-Oriented Innovation Policy (MOIP). The present study on MOIP in Austria was commissioned by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Energy, Mobility, Environment, Innovation and Technologiy (BMK) and comprises the Austrian contributions to this OECD project. The study aims at contributing Austrian experiences to the international debate and to stimulate a national debate on MOIP.

Abstract:
Open source intelligence (OSINT) and science and technology intelligence (STI) are realized differently in the United States and China, China putting greater value on both. In the United States’ understanding, OSINT “enables” classified reporting, while in China it is the intelligence of first resort. This contrast extends to STI which has a lower priority in the U.S. system, whereas China and its top leaders personally lavish great attention on STI and rely on it for national decisions. Establishing a “National S&amp;T Analysis Center” within the U.S. government could help to address these challenges.
