Diplomityön tavoitteena oli tutkia aineettoman pääoman hallintaa terästeollisuuden tutkimuslaitosympäristössä, sekä luoda mittaristo kuvaamaan sen tilaa ja kehitystä. Työn rajausten mukaan aineeton pääoma jaettiin Annie Brookingin jaottelun mukaan, ja tarkasteluun valittiin teollisoikeudet sekä henkilöstövoimavarat. Empiirinen osa työstä perustui pääasiassa haastatteluihin sekä Case –yrityksen sisäisiin julkaisuihin. Näitä pyrittiin tulkitsemaan kvalitatiivisten tutkimusmenetelmien oppien mukaan. Tutkimustulosten perusteella voidaan todeta teollisoikeuksien hyödyntämisen olevan suhteellisen vähäistä terästeollisuuden parissa. Syitä tähän on työssä käsitelty melko laajasti. Henkilöstön kehittäminen pitkällä tähtäimellä sekä tiedonkulun tehostaminen henkilöstön keskuudessa ovat puolestaan asioita, joihin kiinnitetään kyseisellä teollisuudenalalla kiitettävässä määrin huomiota. Työn loppupuolella esitelty aineettoman pääoman mittaristo tarjoaa yritykselle työkalun, jonka avulla voidaan monipuolisesti arvioida tätä yrityksille nykyisin elintärkeää asiaa. Lopullista ratkaisumallia se ei aineettoman pääoman mittaamiseen tarjoa, mutta luo kuitenkin tärkeän ensiaskeleen kohti tulevaisuuden yhä kehittyneempiä mittausmenetelmiä.

Sellutehtaiden vesikiertojen sulkeutuminen on lisännyt prosessiveden korrodoivuutta. Korroosio- ja mekaanisen kulumisen aiheuttamat ongelmat ovat nousseet esille, kun käytettävät kulutusteräkset eivät enää kestä muuttuneita prosessiolosuhteita. Tässä diplomityössä materiaalin valinnan avulla on etsitty paremmin kulumista kestävää terästä sellutehtaan kuorimon sulatuskuljettimeen. Työssä on tutkittu terästen kulumiskestävyyttä ja siihen vaikuttavia tekijöitä. Tarkastelun kohteena ovat olleet materiaalien koostumus ja ominaisuudet sekä kulumisympäristö. Työn tavoitteina oli lisätä ymmärtämystä ketjukuljettimissa esiintyvistä kulumismekanismeista ja niihin vaikuttavista tekijöistä. Hankittua tietämystä on käytetty apuna materiaalin valinnassa. Kulumiskestävyyden selvittämiseksi eri koostumuksen omaavia kaupallisia teräksiä testattiin oikeissa käyttöolosuhteissa ja kontrolloiduissa laboratorio-olosuhteissa. Työssä on valittu testattujen terästen joukosta parhaiten sulatuskuljettimen kuluviin kohteisiin soveltuva teräs.

Tutkimus on luonteeltaan laadullinen ja sen tavoitteena on tarkastella johtoryhmätyöskentelyä ja päätöksentekoa roolien ja vuorovaikutuksen kautta. Roolit perustuvat havainnointitutkimukselle Imatra Steelin Imatran terästehtaan johtoryhmässä. Tutkimuksessa on lisäksi hyödynnetty teemahaastatteluja ja yrityksen dokumentteja, ja näin ollen aineistotriangulaatiota. Tutkimuksen painotus on empiirisellä osalla. Tutkimuksen avulla todetaan, että johtoryhmätyöskentely kohdeyrityksessä on perinteitä noudattelevaa ja keskittynyt informaation jakamiseen sekä toiminnan koordinointiin. Strateginen päätöksenteko ja dynaaminen johtoryhmätyöskentely ovat vähemmän painottuneita. Päätökset johtoryhmän kokouksissa syntyvät keskustelujen tuloksena puheenjohtajan tehdessä lopullisen ratkaisun.

Fatal and permanently disabling accidents form only one per I cent of all occupational accidents but in many branches of industry they account for more than half the accident costs. Furthermore the human suffering of the victim and his family is greater in severe accidents than in slight ones. For both human and economic reasons the severe accident risks should be identified befor injuries occur. It is for this purpose that different safety analysis methods have been developed . This study shows two new possible approaches to the problem.. The first is the hypothesis that it is possible to estimate the potential severity of accidents independent of the actual severity. The second is the hypothesis that when workers are also asked to report near accidents, they are particularly prone to report potentially severe near accidents on the basis of their own subjective risk assessment. A field study was carried out in a steel factory. The results supported both the hypotheses. The reliability and the validity of post incident estimates of an accident's potential severity were reasonable. About 10 % of accidents were estimated to be potentially critical; they could have led to death or very severe permanent disability. Reported near accidents were significantly more severe, about 60 $ of them were estimated to be critical. Furthermore the validity of workers subjective risk assessment, manifested in the near accident reports, proved to be reasonable. The studied new methods require further development and testing. They could be used both in routine usage in work places and in research for identifying and setting the priorities of accident risks.

Kaukojäähdytyksellä tarkoitetaan keskitetysti tuotetun jäähdytysenergian jakamista kiinteistöihin jakeluverkossa kiertävän kylmän veden välityksellä, eli kaukojäähdytys on ulkoistettu jäähdytysratkaisu. Jäähdytysenergiaa tarvitaan työtehon, viihtyisyyden ja sisäilman laadun parantamiseksi, sekä joidenkin prosessien tarpeisiin. Siinä missä perinteinen kiinteistökohtainen jäähdytysjärjestelmä tuottaa jäähdytysenergian sähköllä, käytetään kaukojäähdytyksessä jäähdytysenergian tuottamiseen sellaisia resursseja, jotka muuten jäisivät käyttämättä. Tästä syystä kaukojäähdytys vähentää merkittävästi hiilidioksidipäästöjä, jonka lisäksi kaukojäähdytys vähentää kylmäkoneissa käytettävien kylmäaineiden aiheuttamia kasvihuonekaasupäästöjä. Kaukolämpöverkkoa muistuttavan kaukojäähdytysverkon rakentaminen vaatii suuria investointeja. Nykyisin jakeluverkon rakenteena käytetään 2Mpuk- rakennetta, jonka todettiin olevan teknistaloudellisesti soveltuvin vaihtoehto Helsingin Energian kaukojäähdytysverkkoon. Myös PE 100 putkia voitaisiin käyttää PN 16 paineluokassa alle DN 300 kokoluokkaa vastaavissa johdoissa, ja PN 10 paineluokassa alle DN 400 johdoissa. Kaukolämpöverkon paineluokan valinta vaikuttaa oleellisesti investointikustannuksiin PE- putkilla ja joillekin alueille kannattanee rakentaa alemman paineluokan omaava erillisverkko PE- putkista. Happidiffuusion kautta PE- putkista pääsee jonkin verran happea verkkoon, mutta määrät ovat melko pieniä, eikä muitakaan teknisiä esteitä hyvin korroosiota kestävien PE- putkien käytölle ole. 2Mpuk- rakenteelle suurimman riskin aiheuttaa elementtien liitoskohdista teräsputken pinnalle pääsevä ulkopuolinen vesi. Koska kaukojäähdytysjohdot ovat lisäksi yleensä ympäristöä kylmempiä, kondensoivat ne vettä pinnallensa kaukolämpöjohdoista poiketen. Ulkopuolisen veden aiheuttamaa riskiä voitaisiin pienentää eristämällä liitoskohdat sähkömuhveilla. Verkoston rakentamiskustannuksia ja liikenteelle aiheutuvia haittoja voidaan vähentää ojattomia rakentamismenetelmiä, kuten suuntaporausta käyttämällä.

The study of price risk management concerning high grade steel alloys and their components was conducted. This study was focused in metal commodities, of which nickel, chrome and molybdenum were in a central role. Also possible hedging instruments and strategies for referred metals were studied. In the literature part main themes are price formation of Ni, Cr and Mo, the functioning of metal exchanges and main hedging instruments for metal commodities. This section also covers how micro and macro variables may affect metal prices from the viewpoint of short as well as longer time period. The experimental part consists of three sections. In the first part, multiple regression model with seven explanatory variables was constructed to describe price behavior of nickel. Results were compared after this with information created with comparable simple regression model. Additionally, long time mean price reversion of nickel was studied. In the second part, theoretical price of CF8M alloy was studied by using nickel, ferro-chrome and ferro-molybdenum as explanatory variables. In the last section, cross hedging possibilities for illiquid FeCr -metal was studied with five LME futures. Also this section covers new information concerning possible forthcoming molybdenum future contracts as well. The results of this study confirm, that linear regression models which are based on the assumption of market rationality, are not able to reliably describe price development of metals at issue. Models fulfilling assumptions for linear regression may though include useful information of statistical significant variables which have effect on metal prices. According to the experimental part, short futures were found to incorporate the most accurate information concerning the price movements in the future. However, not even 3M futures were able to predict turning point in the market before the faced slump. Cross hedging seemed to be very doubtful risk management strategy for illiquid metals, because correlations coefficients were found to be very sensitive for the chosen time span.

In recent times of global turmoil, the need for uncertainty management has become ever momentous. The need for enhanced foresight especially concerns capital-intensive industries, which need to commit their resources and assets with long-term planning horizons. Scenario planning has been acknowledged to have many virtues - and limitations - concerning the mapping of the future and illustrating the alternative development paths. The present study has been initiated to address both the need of improved foresight in two capital-intensive industries, i.e. the paper and steel industries and the imperfections in the current scenario practice. The research problem has been approached by engendering a problem-solving vehicle, which combines, e.g. elements of generic scenario process, face-to-face group support methods, deductive scenario reasoning and causal mapping into a fully integrated scenario process. The process, called the SAGES scenario framework, has been empirically tested by creating alternative futures for two capital-intensive industries, i.e. the paper and steel industries. Three scenarios for each industry have been engendered together with the identification of the key megatrends, the most important foreign investment determinants, key future drivers and leading indicators for the materialisation of the scenarios. The empirical results revealed a two-fold outlook for the paper industry, while the steel industry future was seen as much more positive. The research found support for utilising group support systems in scenario and strategic planning context with some limitations. Key perceived benefits include high time-efficiency, productivity and lower resource-intensiveness. Group support also seems to enhance participant satisfaction, encourage innovative thinking and provide the users with personalised qualitative scenarios.

This master’s thesis was done for Andritz Inc. Atlanta Georgia. The purpose of the thesis was to develop a new trolley for a small portal log yard crane. In the beginning of the thesis the basic principles of the systematic design processes have been described, along which the design work of the trolley has proceeded. The second literature part consists of the design and dimensioning of the welded steel structures under fatigue loading. The design work of the trolley consists of the engineering and the selection of the mechanical components and the design of the load carrying structure for the trolley. The realization of the steel structure of the trolley is based on the fatigue and static dimensioning. The fatigue dimensioning is grounded in the life expectations estimated for the trolley and the static dimensioning is based on the CMAA guidelines. The computer aided element method was utilized in the design of the steel structure. The effective notch method and the hot spot method were used in the fatigue calculations. The trolley structure was carried out by using the sheet metal parts in order to manufacture the structure as effective and low cost way as possible. The corner stone of the dimensioning of the trolley structure was the utilization of the open profiles made of welded or cold formed sheet metals, which provide better weldability, weld inspection, access for repairs and corrosion protection. As a last part of the thesis a new trolley traveling system was developed. The distribution of the wheel loads of the trolley bogies on the main girder was also studied, which led to an innovative suspension arrangement between the trolley leg and the bogie. The new bogie solution increases the service life of the main girder of the crane and improves the stability of the bogies. The outcome of the thesis is an excellent trolley structure from the weight and the service life point of view.

Useat voimalaitokset käyttävät hiiliteräksistä valmistettuja palamisilman esilämmittimiä, joissa höyrykattilan palamisilmaa lämmitetään matalapainehöyryllä. Joissakin tapauksissa esilämmittimet ovat kärsineet sisäpuolisen korroosion aiheuttamista putkirikoista. Tämän työn tavoitteena oli selvittää korroosiovaurioiden aiheuttajat ja tarkastella eri keinoja uusien korroosiovaurioiden ehkäisemiseksi. Keskeisimpänä uusien vaurioiden ehkäisykeinona tarkastellaan pinta-aktiivisia amiineja sisältäviä höyrykattilan jälkiannostelukemikaaliseoksia, joista tarkemman tarkastelun kohteena on kaupallinen Helamin 90 H Turb- kemikaaliseos. Pääasialliseksi korroosion aiheuttajaksi on usein epäilty höyryn sisältämää hiilidioksidia. Uusimpien näkemysten mukaan orgaaniset hapot, pääasiassa etikka- ja muurahaishappo ovat kuitenkin hiilidioksidia voimakkaampia korroosion aiheuttajia ilmanesilämmittimissä. Orgaaniset hapot väkevöityvät höyryn lauhtumisen alkaessa muodostuviin lauhdepisaroihin ja alentavat pH-tasoa radikaalisti. pH-tason aleneminen nopeuttaa metallipintoja suojaavan magnetiitin liukenemista ja vaikeuttaa myös sen uusiutumista. Orgaanisia happoja ja hiilidioksidia muodostuu orgaanisten aineiden osittaisessa hajoamisessa höyrykattilan vesi-höyrypiirissä. Pääasialliset orgaanisten aineiden lähteet ovat lisäveden mukana kattilaan kulkeutuva luonnon orgaaninen aines ja käytetyt orgaaniset jälkiannostelukemikaalit. Orgaanisten aineiden kuormaa voidaan pienentää parantamalla lisäveden valmistusprosessin orgaanisten aineiden erotustehokkuutta esimerkiksi käänteisosmoosilla. Mikäli lisäveden laadun parantaminen ei ole järkevästi toteutettavissa, voidaan orgaanisten jälkiannostelukemikaalien oikeanlaisella käytöllä neutraloida orgaanisten happojen vaikutus ilmanesilämmittimissä. Tehokkaimmaksi korroosion hillitsijäksi suoritettujen mittausten perusteella osoittautuivat kemikaaliseokset, jotka sisältävät alkaloivien amiinien lisäksi kalvoa muodostavaa pinta-aktiivista amiinia.

Cutting of thick section stainless steel and mild steel, and medium section aluminium using the high power ytterbium fibre laser has been experimentally investigated in this study. Theoretical models of the laser power requirement for cutting of a metal workpiece and the melt removal rate were also developed. The calculated laser power requirement was correlated to the laser power used for the cutting of 10 mm stainless steel workpiece and 15 mm mild steel workpiece using the ytterbium fibre laser and the CO2 laser. Nitrogen assist gas was used for cutting of stainless steel and oxygen was used for mild steel cutting. It was found that the incident laser power required for cutting at a given cutting speed was lower for fibre laser cutting than for CO2 laser cutting indicating a higher absorptivity of the fibre laser beam by the workpiece and higher melting efficiency for the fibre laser beam than for the CO2 laser beam. The difficulty in achieving an efficient melt removal during high speed cutting of the 15 mmmild steel workpiece with oxygen assist gas using the ytterbium fibre laser can be attributed to the high melting efficiency of the ytterbium fibre laser. The calculated melt flow velocity and melt film thickness correlated well with the location of the boundary layer separation point on the 10 mm stainless steel cut edges. An increase in the melt film thickness caused by deceleration of the melt particles in the boundary layer by the viscous shear forces results in the flow separation. The melt flow velocity increases with an increase in assist gas pressure and cut kerf width resulting in a reduction in the melt film thickness and the boundary layer separation point moves closer to the bottom cut edge. The cut edge quality was examined by visual inspection of the cut samples and measurement of the cut kerf width, boundary layer separation point, cut edge squareness (perpendicularity) deviation, and cut edge surface roughness as output quality factors. Different regions of cut edge quality in 10 mm stainless steel and 4 mm aluminium workpieces were defined for different combinations of cutting speed and laserpower.Optimization of processing parameters for a high cut edge quality in 10 mmstainless steel was demonstrated

The aim of the study was to create an easily upgradable product costing model for laser welded hollow core steel panels to help in pricing decisions. The theory section includes a literature review to identify traditional and modern cost accounting methodologies, which are used by manufacturing companies. The theory section also presents the basics of steel panel structures and their manufacturing methods and manufacturing costs based on previous research. Activity-Based costing turned out to be the most appropriate methodology for the costing model because of wide product variations. Activity analysis and the determination of cost drivers based on observations and interviews were the key steps in the creation of the model. The created model was used to test how panel parameters affect the costs caused by the main manufacturing stages and materials. By comparing cost structures, it was possible to find the panel types that are the most economic and uneconomic to manufacture. A sensitivity analysis proved that the model gives sufficiently reliable cost information to support pricing decisions. More reliable cost information could be achieved by determining the cost drivers more accurately. Alternative methods for manufacturing the cores were compared with the model. The comparison proved that roll forming can be more advantageous and flexible than press brake bending. However, more extensive research showed that roll forming is possible only when the cores are designed to be manufactured by roll forming. Due to that fact, when new panels are designed consideration should be given to the possibility of using roll forming.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the level of customer consciousness of the production process employees in a steel factory and to investigate the methods of internal marketing in order to propose development practices to enhance the customer consciousness of the case company employees. The significance of the level of customer consciousness is discussed and practices already implemented affecting the level of customer consciousness in the company are examined. The literature review gives an insight to the role of customer consciousness in the CRM philosophy of a manufacturing company and examines the means of internal marketing in enhancing customer consciousness. In the empirical part of the study, the level and significance of customer consciousness is determined by conducting individual and focus group interviews. The interviews are also used to examine the practices that could function in enhancing the customer consciousness of the employees. Development suggestions to improve the level of customer consciousness in the production process are given based on the results. The level of customer consciousness is at a poor level in the production process and influences above all on work motivation and job satisfaction, but possibly on customer satisfaction as well. The enhancement of customer consciousness in the production process should be done e.g. by ensuring the distribution of right knowledge coherently to all of the employees, gathering large customer reference database to exploit in work and in training, using visual illustration in presenting the customer information, training proactively and letting the employees to participate in the customer oriented development activities. Customer satisfaction focused reward system can be considered.

The overall purpose of this thesis was to increase the knowledge on the biogeochemistry of rural acid sulphate (AS) soil environments and urban forest ecosystems near small towns in Western Finland. In addition, the potential causal relationship between the distribution of AS soils and geographical occurence of multiple sclerosis (MS) disease was assessed based on a review of existing literature and data. Acid sulphate soils, which occupy an area of approximately 17–24 million hectare worldwide, are regarded as the nastiest soils in the world. Independent of the geographical locality of these soils, they pose a great threat to their surrounding environment if disturbed. The abundant metal-rich acid drainage from Finnish AS soils, which is a result of sulphide oxidation due to artificial farmland drainage, has significant but spatially and temporally variable ecotoxicological impacts on biodiversity and community structure of fish, benthic invertebrates and macrophytes. This has resulted in mass fish kills and even eradication of sensitive fish species in affected waters. Moreover, previous investigations demonstrated significantly enriched concentrations of Co, Ni, Mn and Al, metals which are abundantly mobilised in AS soils, in agricultural crops (timothy grass and oats) and approximately 50 times higher concentrations of Al in cow milk originating from AS soils in Western Finland. Nevertheless, the results presented here demonstrate, in general, relatively moderate metal concentrations in oats and cabbage grown on AS soils in Western Finland, although some of the studied fields showed anomalous values of metals (e.g. Co and Ni) in both the soil and target plants (especially oats), similar to that of the previous investigations. The results indicated that the concentrations of Co, Ni, Mn and Zn in oats and Co and Zn in cabbage were governed by soil geochemistry as these metals were correlated with corresponding concentrations extracted from the soil by NH4Ac-EDTA and NH4Ac, respectively. The concentrations of Cu and Fe in oats and cabbage were uncorrelated to that of the easily soluble concentrations in the soils, suggesting that biological processes (e.g. plant-root processes) overshadow geochemical variation. The concentrations of K and Mg in cabbage, which showed a low spread and were strongly correlated to the NH4Ac extractable contents in the soil, were governed by both the bioavailable fractions in the topsoil and plant-uptake mechanisms. The plant´s ability to regulate its uptake of Ca and P (e.g. through root exudates) seemed to be more important than the influence of soil geochemistry. The distribution of P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn and S within humus, moss and needles in and around small towns was to a high degree controlled by biological cycling, which was indicated by the low correlation coefficients for P, K, Ca, Mg and S between humus and moss, and the low spread of these nutrients in moss and needles. The concentration variations of elements in till are mainly due to natural processes (e.g. intrusions, weathering, mineralogical variations in the bedrock). There was a strong spatial pattern for B in humus, moss and needles, which was suggested to be associated with anthropogenic emissions from nearby town centres. Geogenic dust affected the spatial distribution of Fe and Cr in moss, while natural processes governed the Fe anomaly found in the needles. The spatial accumulation patterns of Zn, Cd, Cu, Ni and Pb in humus and moss were strong and diverse, and related to current industry, the former steel industry, coal combustion, and natural geochemical processes. An intriguing Cu anomaly was found in moss. Since it was located close to a main railway line and because the railway line´s electric cables are made of Cu, it was suggested that the reason for the Cu anomaly is corrosion of these cables. In Western Finland, where AS soils are particularly abundant and enrich the metal concentrations of stream waters, cow milk and to some extent crops, an environmental risk assessment would be motivated to elucidate if the metal dispersion affect human health. Within this context, a topic of concern is the distribution of multiple sclerosis as high MS prevalence rates are found in the main area of AS soils. Regionally, the AS soil type in the Seinäjoki area has been demonstrated to be very severe in terms of metal leaching, this area also shows one of the highest MS rates reported worldwide. On a local scale, these severe AS soil types coincide well with the corresponding MS clustering along the Kyrönjoki River in Seinäjoki. There are reasons to suspect that these spatial correlations are causal, as multiple sclerosis has been suggested to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Ruostumattomien terästen hinta on kasvanut maailman laajuisen kysynnän kasvun seurauksena. Samoin on käynyt myös ruostumattomien terästen valmistukseen käytettävien seosaineiden hinnalle. Terästen valmistajat ovatkin kehittäneet lean duplex teräksiä vastatakseen hintatietoisten markkinoiden kysyntään. Näissä lean duplex teräksissä kalliita seosaineita kuten nikkeliä ja molybdeenia on korvattu typellä ja mangaanilla. Houkutteleviksi vaihtoehdoiksi perinteisille ruostumattomille teräksille lean duplex laadut tekee myös niiden hyvät lujuus- ja korroosio-ominaisuudet. Kirjallisuus osio esittelee lasereiden toimintaperiaatteen. Myös avaimenreikähitsauksen periaate on esitetty. Ruostumattomien terästen yleisimmät seosaineet ovat esitelty, kuten myös syy niiden seostamiseen. Ruostumattomat duplex-teräkset on esitelty samoin kuin lean duplex teräkset. Kokeellisen osion koehitsit hitsattiin osin samalla tuotantolinjalla lopputuotteen kanssa ja osin laboratoriossa. Koemateriaaleina olivat lean duplex teräkset 1.4162 ja 1.4362 joiden materiaalipaksuudet olivat 1.2 mm ja 1.5 mm. Hitsatuille lamelleille tehtiin painetestaus. Makroskopiaa ja valomikroskopiaa käytettiin koehitsien arvioinnissa kuten myös ristivetokoetta. Kiinnostavimmista hitseistä määritettiin myös faasisuhde. Lean duplex teräs 1.4362 havaittiin sopivammaksi laaduksi tämän kaltaisessa sovelluksessa, mutta myös laatu 1.4162 täyttää sovelluksen hitsille asetetut vaatimukset, tosin huomattavasti pienemmässä parametri ikkunassa. Valittu menetelmä faasisuhteen määrittämiseen osoittautui epätarkaksi, joten faasisuhteen osalta tämän tutkimuksen tulokset ovat vain suuntaa-antavia.
