Alstom Power i Växjö arbetar med utveckling och försäljning av bland annat elektrofilter tillrökgasreningssystem vid olika typer av miljövårdsanläggningar för t.ex. kraftverksindustrin.Dessa elektrofilter kontrolleras och regleras med hjälp av styrutrustning uppbyggd av ettantal styrenheter som idag kommunicerar via en egentillverkad standard kallad ?Fläktbuss?. Föratt övervaka detta system vill man använda handburna PDA och kommunicera med Fläktbussenvia USB. För att få kommunikationen mellan USB och Fläktbuss att fungera krävs någon form avaktiv konvertering.Detta examensarbete kommer att ta upp så väl problematik och lösningar kring detproblem som finns i samband med denna konvertering..

Materialhantering är den del av produktionslogistiken som hanterar det interna materialflödet, vilket innefattar intern lagerhållning och transport. Målet med den interna materialhanteringen är att säkerställa tillgången av material till produktionssystemet där hanteringen ska ske utan skador på material eller personal. I ett tillverkande företag kan en betydande del av den totala produktionskostnaden härledas till den interna materialhanteringen. Enligt Lean Production ska både transport och lagerhållning betraktas som slöseri. Det är därmed viktigt att effektivisera den interna materialhanteringen samtidigt som det inte får ske på bekostnad av sämre leveransprecision till produktionssystemet eller säkerheten.

Findus Sverige AB, referred to asFindus from now on, harvests peas during a period ofaround 50 days during the summer. The harvest generates about 30 000 tonnes of peas which gives around 40 000 pallets to distribute to the warehouses which Findus uses for final storage. Three hours after the peas are picked in the fields, they have to be frozen to keep their good taste and quality. Because of this the pallets are marked with a preliminary label with quality classification of the content. The Findus quality department then has one day to determine the correct quality of each pallet.

Denna rapport gjordes på uppdrag av Räddningstjänsten Östra Skaraborg då de kände ett behov av att ha insatsplaner för olyckor vid transport av farligt gods. Rapporten innebär ett första skede i hur framtagning av insatsplaner ska gå till och hur de ska se ut. Behovet av insatsplaner kommer främst från att de ska verka istället för den erfarenhet som är så svår att få för stora olyckor med farligt gods. Insatsplanen ska vara ett stöd i beslutsfattandet och påminna om viktiga åtgärder. Det finns ingen speciell mall för hur en insatsplan ska se ut, därför har inspiration hämtats från andra räddningstjänster och dokument med hur dess uppbyggnad kan se ut.För att bedöma vilka ämnen som insatsplanerna skulle innehålla och var olycksscenariona skulle utspela sig så gjordes en inventering av det farliga godsflödet i och genom regionen och därefter en sannolikhets- och konsekvensbedömning av detta.

This degree project is an investigation of solar cells and their ability to deliver electric power as well as reducing the need for cooling. The main object of interest is a BASE-X shelter. The shelter is purchased by the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration, FMV to be used for command and camp in the new force called Nordic Battlegroup, NBG. The demand on the equipment is firstly that it should have a small weight to be easy to transport and handle and secondly to be easy to bring up fast. Therefore the choice of solar cell technology fell on thin film cells.

Touch that is performed in a sensitive and gentle way can be a good complement in caring. To be stricken with illness can involve that the individual feels powerlessness and to have no control over the own body. This could lead to both psychical and physical suffering. To strength health is one of the nurses' responsibilities and to touch can be one way. The aim of the study was to describe patients' experience of the effects of touch.

Vid transporter av farligt gods är informationen en avgörande faktor. Att rätt information vid rätt tidpunkt finns tillgänglig är väldigt viktigt vid händelse av olycka. Informationen utgör även en viktig faktor vid transportuppdrag som omfattas av flera olika transportslag i en dörr till dörr transport. Ett transportslag som i hög grad är beroende av andra transportslag för att utföra den här typen av transportuppdrag är sjöfarten. Sam-tidigt som internationella krav ställs på ökad säkerhet vid sjötransporter är Sjöfartsverket i hög grad intresserade av att effektivisera sjöfarts-näringen.

Who participate in alternative sport activities can depend on habitus, comprehended capital forms and in which social field the sport activities exists..

Normally the operational amplifier is used as a component in active filter design. The goal for future components in filter design is large bandwith and the use of low supply voltages. The use of current-mode instead of voltage-mode circuits gets a step closer to the required performance. A component that use current as the signal conveying part is the current conveyor. In this report a comparative study between two current conveyor structures of second generation (CCII) is performed.

Aphasia is a disease that brings on disability. The purpose of the study is to describe the daily life when afflicted with aphasia and gain a deeper understanding of persons with aphasia in working ages. The study was made with a qualitative approach with a combination of data sources; literature, internet lectures, live lectures, interviews with personnel in medical and educational services and three persons with aphasia. More research in aphasiology is welcome. This may be aimed at developing knowledge about the importance of communication, of active participation in the social environment, and the achievement of improved attitudes towards people with disabilities. The study should give rehabilitation actors and close relations knowledge and support in their action when they meet people with aphasia..

The purpose of this study is to get an idea of how active teachers in various stages are defining and working with values in their activities, and to highlight the similarities and differences in the way that they are working on this in the various stages. Qualitative interviews with teachers in preschool, primary education and recreational centres are the basis of the results.The study provides an overview of previous research in the area, and has a theoretical basis in Vygotskys sociocultural theory. The results show that respondents believe that the definition of values lays in relational values, which show us how to behave against fellow human beings. The way to work with value education proves to be different among educators, and we can divide them into different camps based on their attitude to value education. These attitudes are shown to be of importance for how the value education is designed..

Our thesis is a single-case study in which we try to answer the question: Why didn?t the lobbygroup Eurogroup for Animals get enough support for their demands in the latest regulation regarding transport of animals? As an example of their cooperation with their memberorganisations, we have chosen the Swedish organisation Djurens Rätt. Through interviews with key-persons involved in the process and with the use of Jeremy Richardson's theory regarding lobbying in the EU, we found that there were many different factors that effected Eurogroup for Animals chances to get an animal friendly legislation. For example by setting too ambitious demands Eurogroup for Animals wasn?t considered to be a serious actor during the legislation process.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera hur risker kan minimeras vid outsourcing inom klinisk prövning i ett mindre biotekniskt företag. Studien bygger på en kvalitativ fallstudie, vilken huvudsakligen är baserad på intervjuer med nyckelpersoner inom fallföretaget Active Biotech. Genom denna studie har vi kommit fram till att de mest kritiska riskerna vid outsourcing inom klinisk prövning kan härledas till förlust av kompetens eller förlorad kontroll över leverantören. En väl utarbetad outsourcingstrategi både på kort och lång sikt är därför av betydelse för att minimera risker vid outsourcing av klinisk prövning..
