Adaptive control systems are one of the most significant research directions of modern control theory. It is well known that every mechanical appliance’s behavior noticeably depends on environmental changes, functioning-mode parameter changes and changes in technical characteristics of internal functional devices. An adaptive controller involved in control process allows reducing an influence of such changes. In spite of this such type of control methods is applied seldom due to specifics of a controller designing. The work presented in this paper shows the design process of the adaptive controller built by Lyapunov’s function method for the Hydraulic Drive. The calculation needed and the modeling were conducting with MATLAB® software including Simulink® and Symbolic Math Toolbox™ etc. In the work there was applied the Jacobi matrix linearization of the object’s mathematical model and derivation of the suitable reference models based on Newton’s characteristic polynomial. The intelligent adaptive to nonlinearities algorithm for solving Lyapunov’s equation was developed. Developed algorithm works properly but considered plant is not met requirement of functioning with. The results showed confirmation that adaptive systems application significantly increases possibilities in use devices and might be used for correction a system’s behavior dynamics.

Tool center point calibration is a known problem in industrial robotics. The major focus of academic research is to enhance the accuracy and repeatability of next generation robots. However, operators of currently available robots are working within the limits of the robot´s repeatability and require calibration methods suitable for these basic applications. This study was conducted in association with Stresstech Oy, which provides solutions for manufacturing quality control. Their sensor, based on the Barkhausen noise effect, requires accurate positioning. The accuracy requirement admits a tool center point calibration problem if measurements are executed with an industrial robot. Multiple possibilities are available in the market for automatic tool center point calibration. Manufacturers provide customized calibrators to most robot types and tools. With the handmade sensors and multiple robot types that Stresstech uses, this would require great deal of labor. This thesis introduces a calibration method that is suitable for all robots which have two digital input ports free. It functions with the traditional method of using a light barrier to detect the tool in the robot coordinate system. However, this method utilizes two parallel light barriers to simultaneously measure and detect the center axis of the tool. Rotations about two axes are defined with the center axis. The last rotation about the Z-axis is calculated for tools that have different width of X- and Y-axes. The results indicate that this method is suitable for calibrating the geometric tool center point of a Barkhausen noise sensor. In the repeatability tests, a standard deviation inside robot repeatability was acquired. The Barkhausen noise signal was also evaluated after recalibration and the results indicate correct calibration. However, future studies should be conducted using a more accurate manipulator, since the method employs the robot itself as a measuring device.

Diplomityössä tutkittiin Microsoftin pilvipalveluiden käyttöä pk-yrityksen päätelaitteiden hallinnassa sekä yrityksen tiedonhallinnassa. Kohdeyrityksenä oli pk-yritys, jolla on ollut Microsoftin pilvipalveluita käytössä jo useamman vuoden ajan. Pilvipalveluiden nopean päivitystahdin myötä uusimpien ominaisuuksien hyödyntäminen on suurelta osin jäänyt tekemättä. Tutkimus päädyttiin rajaamaan kohdeyrityksessä tehdyn vaatimusmäärittelyn mukaisiin tapauksiin, joihin pyrittiin etsimään vastauksia Microsoftin pilvipalveluiden tämän hetken ominaisuuksien avulla. Tutkimus toteutettiin tutustumalla kirjallisuuden avulla pilvitoimintamallin perusteisiin ja Microsoftin tarjoamiin pilvipalveluihin. Työn käytännön osuus toteutettiin useilla eri päätelaitteilla Office 365:den ja Windows Intunen muodostamassa testiympäristössä, jota laajennettiin Microsoft Azuren mahdollistamilla lisäominaisuuksilla. Pilvitoimintamallin yritykset taistelevat jatkuvasti käyttäjien luottamuksesta ja NSA:n vakoilutapauksen jälkeen palveluissa on tapahtunut paljon parannuksia. Tutkimuksessa todettiin erityisesti tiedon suojaamiskäytäntöjen ja hallintaominaisuuksien kehittyneen viime vuosina pilvitoimintamallin yritysten keskinäisen kilpailun myötä. Microsoftin pilvipalvelujen uudet ominaisuudet tarjoavat pk-yritysten käyttöön tehokkaita päätelaite- ja tiedonhallintaratkaisuja, joita on tähän asti ollut saatavilla vain suuryritysympäristöissä.

This thesis presents an analysis of recently enacted Russian renewable energy policy based on capacity mechanism. Considering its novelty and poor coverage by academic literature, the aim of the thesis is to analyze capacity mechanism influence on investors’ decision-making process. The current research introduces a number of approaches to investment analysis. Firstly, classical financial model was built with Microsoft Excel® and crisp efficiency indicators such as net present value were determined. Secondly, sensitivity analysis was performed to understand different factors influence on project profitability. Thirdly, Datar-Mathews method was applied that by means of Monte Carlo simulation realized with Matlab Simulink®, disclosed all possible outcomes of investment project and enabled real option thinking. Fourthly, previous analysis was duplicated by fuzzy pay-off method with Microsoft Excel®. Finally, decision-making process under capacity mechanism was illustrated with decision tree. Capacity remuneration paid within 15 years is calculated individually for each RE project as variable annuity that guarantees a particular return on investment adjusted on changes in national interest rates. Analysis results indicate that capacity mechanism creates a real option to invest in renewable energy project by ensuring project profitability regardless of market conditions if project-internal factors are managed properly. The latter includes keeping capital expenditures within set limits, production performance higher than 75% of target indicators, and fulfilling localization requirement, implying producing equipment and services within the country. Occurrence of real option shapes decision-making process in the following way. Initially, investor should define appropriate location for a planned power plant where high production performance can be achieved, and lock in this location in case of competition. After, investor should wait until capital cost limit and localization requirement can be met, after that decision to invest can be made without any risk to project profitability. With respect to technology kind, investment into solar PV power plant is more attractive than into wind or small hydro power, since it has higher weighted net present value and lower standard deviation. However, it does not change decision-making strategy that remains the same for each technology type. Fuzzy pay-method proved its ability to disclose the same patterns of information as Monte Carlo simulation. Being effective in investment analysis under uncertainty and easy in use, it can be recommended as sufficient analytical tool to investors and researchers. Apart from described results, this thesis contributes to the academic literature by detailed description of capacity price calculation for renewable energy that was not available in English before. With respect to methodology novelty, such advanced approaches as Datar-Mathews method and fuzzy pay-off method are applied on the top of investment profitability model that incorporates capacity remuneration calculation as well. Comparison of effects of two different RE supporting schemes, namely Russian capacity mechanism and feed-in premium, contributes to policy comparative studies and exhibits useful inferences for researchers and policymakers. Limitations of this research are simplification of assumptions to country-average level that restricts our ability to analyze renewable energy investment region wise and existing limitation of the studying policy to the wholesale power market that leaves retail markets and remote areas without our attention, taking away medium and small investment into renewable energy from the research focus. Elimination of these limitations would allow creating the full picture of Russian renewable energy investment profile.

Nykyaikaisessa monipuolisessa liiketoimintaympäristössä, tieto joka saadaan koko toimitusketjun osapuolilta, on perusedellytys menestykselle. Ammattimaisessa hankinnassa keskitytään kokonaisuuden hallintamenetelmiin, joissa keskitytään ohjaamaan toimittajasuhteita, prosesseja ja tuloksia. Näistä erityispiirteistä johtuen, toimittajahallinta on yksi tärkeimmistä hankinnan tehtävistä. Toimittajahallinta vaatii laaja-alaista asiantuntijuutta ja yhteistyötä, niin sisäisten, kuin ulkoisten sidosryhmien kanssa. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tutkia kokonaisvaltaisesti hankintaa ja toimittajahallintaa, sekä kehittää suositukset kattavalle toimittajahallintaprosessille kohdeyrityksen hankintakategorialle. Tutkimuksen kirjallisuusselvitys perustuu kahteen osa-alueeseen, jotka ovat olennaisia kohdeyrityksen kokonaisvaltaisessa hankintaprosessissa. Ensimmäisessä osassa tarkastellaan hankintatoimea yrityksen sisäisistä näkökulmista, joita ovat hankinta, muutoksenhallinta ja prosessijohtaminen. Toisessa osassa hankintatoimea tarkastellaan toimittajayhteistyön näkökulmista, joita ovat toimittajahallinta, toimittajien luokittelu ja suorituskyvyn mittaaminen. Tutkimuksen tulosten perusteella kohteena olevan hankintakategorian kehityskohteiksi erityisesti nousivat kokonaisuuden ja kaikkien toimitusketjun osien kustannustehokkuuden analysointi, kokonaiskustannustenhallinta, prosessien määrittäminen ja syklisyys, sekä yhteistyön merkitys poikkifunktionaalisten ryhmien kanssa.

Tutkimuksessa selvitetään ensinnäkin, mitä vaatimuksia yksityiselämän suoja osana perusoikeusjärjestelmää asettaa poliisin salaisia tiedonhankintakeinoja koskevalle lainsäätämiselle. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään lisäksi, miten nykyinen lainsäädäntö vastaa yksityiselämän suojasta seuraaviin vaatimuksiin, ja miten lainsäädäntöä tulisi mahdollisesti kehittää, jotta se paremmin vastaisi näihin vaatimuksiin. Perus- ja ihmisoikeuksien merkitys on lisääntynyt myös lain soveltamisen osalta, ja tästä syystä tutkimuksessa selvitetään, mitä vaatimuksia perusoikeusjärjestelmä asettaa salaisia tiedonhankintakeinoja koskevalle lain soveltamiselle. Tutkimuksen kohteena on pakkokeinolain (806/2011) 10 luvussa säädetyt keinot, joita käytetään rikosten selvittämiseen sekä poliisilain (872/2011) 5 luvussa säädetyt keinot, joita käytetään rikosten estämiseen ja paljastamiseen. Tässä tutkimuksessa perusoikeusjärjestelmän kokonaisuuden perusteella määrittyy se, millä ehdoilla ja missä laajuudessa salaisten tiedonhankintakeinojen käyttö on mahdollista. Tutkimuksessa selviää, että salaisia tiedonhankintakeinoja koskevaa sääntelyä tarvitaan nimenomaisesti tietyistä asiakokonaisuuksista. Kun tiedonhankintakeinojen käyttöön liittyviä intressejä pyritään sovittamaan yhteen, pelkkä punninta ei ole riittävää, vaan tärkeää on havaita, mitkä konkreettisemmat tekijät vaikuttavat ratkaisun tekemiseen lainsäätämisessä ja lain soveltamisessa. Ihmisarvon loukkaamattomuutta kunnioittavassa oikeusvaltiossa sääntelylle asettuu myös tiettyjä ehdottomia rajoja. Tutkimuksessa selviää myös, että tutkimustietoa eri tiedonhankintakeinojen tehokkuudesta tulisi saada lisää, jotta voidaan paremmin arvioida eri keinojen oikeasuhtaisuutta. Joidenkin tiedonhankintakeinojen edellytykset on muotoiltu niin, että on kyseenalaista, toteutuvatko luottamuksellisen viestin salaisuutta koskevan lakivarauksen vaatimukset. Tulisi myös pohtia, tarvitaanko ainakin joidenkin keinojen osalta hankittujen tietojen käsittelemistä ja hävittämistä valvomaan jokin poliisin nähden ulkopuolinen taho, jotta yksilön oikeusturva voitaisiin turvata paremmin. Jatkossa tulisi edelleen kiinnittää huomiota myös siihen, että tiedonhankintakeinoja koskevien lupapäätösten ja -hakemusten perustelut ovat riittävät. Eduskunnan oikeusasiamiehen suorittama valvonta on ollut merkittävää yksilön oikeusturvan toteutumisen kannalta. Vaikuttaa kuitenkin siltä, että erillisen valvontaelimen perustaminen olisi tärkeää, jotta voitaisiin varmistaa tiedonhankintakeinojen riittävän perusteellinen valvonta.

Context: Game development has become increasingly important in the software industry, but this importance has not affected the way software engineering approaches and methodologies manage the differences they have with game development. Similarly, software engineering does not fully support sustainability practices, causing this element to often not be considered or even known as a requirement for a development lifecycle. Goal: The aim of this thesis is to study the mode in which games are developed, and the involved sustainable aspects and the relevant concerns regarding the migration processes. Method: A quantitative study was conducted, gathering 33 answers of game professionals from four continents, from administrative (25%) and technical oriented positions (75%). Results: Three trends were observed: 1) Agile process models are used, 2) major concerns for mobile development and digital marketing, 3) minor concerns for eco-impact elements and certain development phases such as testing and crunch time development. Conclusion: Traditional Software engineering would require a major change on its processes and models to fit with modern agile development, game development approaches and sustainable requirements.

The motives for this study originated from the notion that surprisingly little academic literature is found on actually managing and putting corporate social responsibility (CSR) into practice, in comparison with the definitions and frameworks of the concept itself. Regardless of the author, CSR has been considered consisting of three dimensions: economic, social and environmental. The question behind the three dimensions has always been whether socially and environmentally responsible behavior can lead to increased economic performance and improve the competitiveness of a company. Most of the current CSR development has related to the quantification of environmental and social performance in order to review these along with the established financial key ratios, which are based on the law and the reporting obligation of the companies. However, the previous research has mainly focused on US companies whereas studies with a European viewpoint, let alone Nordic, have been mostly lacking. Furthermore, it has been discovered recently that the integration of corporate responsibility into business is identified as the greatest challenge in CSR management in Finnish large companies. Therefore the integration of CSR into business in Finnish consumer goods companies provided an interesting, topical and somewhat obscure purpose for this study. This was further divided into three research questions concerning the reasons for CSR engagement, the role of the stakeholders and the practice of corporate responsibility. This study did not aim to build a new theory; instead an explorative viewpoint was regarded more appropriate. Accordingly, qualitative research approach and case study design were adopted in the study. Semi-structured theme interviews were used as a primary data collection method and complemented with secondary data such as websites, responsibility reports and another recent CSR study. There were four Finnish managers as interviewees of whom three presented companies and one non-profit organization. The results were somewhat convergent but differences arose as a result of the companies being at different stages as regards corporate responsibility. However, this provided only more insight into the implementation of CSR. The voluntary CSR initiatives, responsibility reporting, stakeholders and CSR management were identified as the most important viewpoints on the practical side of CSR, besides a key requirement for the integration of CSR into business to be credible was found to be a favorable management attitude. Based on the findings of this study it was admitted that giving concrete advice on CSR management is really a challenge and there is no one generally accepted and right manner to integrate corporate responsibility successfully into business.

Veterinary Health Services are following in many areas the practices and medical direction of human medicine and health services. They are reaching for improved efficiency, quality and precision. Competitive position may be improved and productivity increased by specializing and focusing efforts at the practice. This thesis focuses in small animal practices and their needs for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems in Germany. As a result requirements for ERP solution supporting knowledge management in the small animal practice is presented. Veterinary Health Services is knowledge-intensive business, where written information and tacit knowledge is increasingly bound together with deepening expertise and specialization. Veterinarian is even legally obliged to develop and maintain her professional skills. The current ERP solutions concentrate in the treatment process of veterinary practice. Customer relationship management is left aside. As the competitive situation is getting tighter in veterinary services also the customer relationship management needs to get into the focus and interest to the wider network support in knowledge sharing should take steps forward. Taking into account the requirement of continuous development of professional skills ERP system at the veterinary practice should also be seen as knowledge management tool. It should provide the possibility to create, store, share and use knowledge. The study is conducted first by studying the AS-IS situation of ERP use and market in veterinary health services and then drawing the requirements of TO-BE situation by studying literature and the results of semi qualitative study conducted for German veterinary practices. A group of veterinarians were interviewed, market and network analysis was done and the understanding of market was deepened in two veterinary conferences in Germany. This theses work is requested by Finnish software company Finnish Net Solutions, which is the leading supplier of Veterinary Practice Management software in Finland. The company plans to expand to European market with Cloud based service. Target of the theses is to create understanding of the requirements of German veterinary market to develop ERP solution supporting Knowledge Management in Veterinary Practice.

Tämän diplomityön tavoitteena oli saavuttaa Joensuun CNC-Machining Oy:n aloittama harvesterinlaipan kehitystyö loppuun. Kehitystyön oli aloittanut vuonna 2012 Teemu Tuominen omalla opinnäytetyöllään, joka keskittyi suunnittelua ja valmistusta rajoittavien patenttien selvittämiseen sekä laipan valmistuksessa käytettyjen materiaalien selvittämiseen. Kirjallisuuskatsauksen ja puutuvien tietojen hankinnan jälkeen tarkasteluun otettiin aiemmin valmistettu prototyyppi sekä rikkoutuneita käytetyjä laippoja. Näistä laipoista tehtiin havaintoja esille nousevista ongelmakohdista, joiden perusteella tässä työssä suunnitelmaa päivitettiin ja asetettiin vaatimukset uudelle prototyypille. Kokonaisrakenteen suunnittelun jälkeen keskityttiin viimeistelemään osatoiminnallisuuksien yksityiskohdat. Suunnittelun tulosten perusteella valmistettiin laipasta prototyyppisarja, joista kahdella suoritettiin todellista käyttöä vastaava koeajo. Koeajon aikana ja jälkeen laippojen käyttäytymisestä ja suorituskyvystä tehtiin havaintoja. Valmistuksesta ja koeajosta saaduilla tiedoilla laippamallia kehitetään kohti markkinakelpoista tuotetta ja tuoteperhettä kasvatetaan eri mallisilla laipoilla.

A support ring of AISI 304L stainless steel that holds vertical, parallel wires arranged in a circle forming a cylinder is studied. The wires are attached to the ring with heat-induced shrinkage. When the ring is heated with a torch the heat affected zone tries to expand while the adjacent cool structure obstructs the expansion causing upsetting. During cooling, the ring shrinks smaller than its original size clamping the wires. The most important requirement for the ring is that it should be as round as possible and the deformations should occur as overall shrinkage in the ring diameter. A three-dimensional nonlinear transient sequential thermo-structural Abaqus model is used together with a Fortran code that enters the heat flux to each affected element. The local and overall deformations in one ring inflicted by the heating are studied with a small amount of inspection on residual stresses. A variety of different cases are chosen to be studied with the model constructed to provide directional knowledge; torch flux with the means of speed, location of the wires, heating location and structural factors. The decrease of heating speed increases heat flux that rises the temperature increasing shrinkage. In a single progressive heating uneven distribution of shrinkage appears to the start/end region that can be partially fixed with using speeded heating’s to strengthen the heating of that region. Location of the wires affect greatly to the caused shrinkage unlike heating location. The ring structure affects also greatly to the shrinkage; smaller diameter, bigger ring height, thinner thickness and greater number of wires increase shrinkage.
