Aerodynamisk optimering av vindkraftverks rotorblad med en genetisk algoritm, BEM-teori, och XFOIL
This study presents a methodology that enables the annual average power of a wind turbine to be increased by automatically optimizing it?s airfoil, twist and chord dis- tribution. As a part of the study the software SiteOpt has been developed. This software connects the open source software XFOIL with the blade element momen- tum theory. XFOIL gives lift and drag coefficients which enable the blade element momentum theory to predict the power of a wind turbine at different wind and ro- tational speeds.
Tjänsteorienterad arkitektur : Ett arkiv- och informationsvetenskapligt perspektiv på tjänsteorienterad arkitektur
The starting point of this paper has to do with rapid changes within the information technology and the need for agile and fast systems. The primary goal is to investigate what happens with recordkeeping practices in agile environments like service oriented architecture (SOA). It is in the possible transfer between IT architecture and digital archive the area of this paper resides. The paper relates to the Records Continuum model by which records will be considered historical and active at the time of creation. In the Records Continuum model recordkeeping practices and archival requirements will have to be taken into account at the time of creation.This paper concerns SOA from the perspective of Archival and Information science.
Att läsa eller inte läsa en "guideline" : En aktionsforskningsstudie angående externa riktlinjer i ett interaktionsdesignprojekt
As part of an Agile developing team I have in my role as interaction designer also tried to evaluate the ?iPhone Human Interface Guidelines?. With action research I have taken actions to change the workflow and to see what there can be done to make the guidelines more motivating to use. Action 1 tried to make the iPhone components more available and it suceeded, action 2 tried to make the guideline more available in whole and did not work as it was designed to do. The guidelines did not work as a source of inspiriation and I and my fellow designer distanciated us from it.
Utveckla idag Bevara i morgon - Ett hot mot den historiska staden som destination
The aim of this thesis is to identify and analyse the antagonism between conservation and development which occurs in historical towns.The base of the study is theories in destination development and cultural heritage tourism in historical towns as well as the consequences expressed in these theories concerning conservation and development. The standpoint was that an empiric study needed to complement the theory. This filed study took place in Dubrovnik in Croatia. The thesis identifies the antagonism between conservation and development based on the theoretical research. Moreover the study adds a perspective to the research through the identification of further dimensions of this antagonism.
Configuration management system för Moderna Museet
This thesis of 15 hp has been implemented at Halmstad University, incollaboration with Saab Dynamics in Linköping. Saab Dynamics is a companyoperating in the defence industry where competition is tough. This necessitatesnew ways to increase efficiency in the company, which is the basis for this thesis.Saab Dynamics wants to introduce simulation driven design. Since SaabDynamics engineers have little experience of simulation, required a usermethodology with clear guidelines. Due to lack of time, they chose to assign thetask to students, which resulted in this thesis.The aim of the thesis is to develop a methodology in mechanical design, wherethe designer uses the FE analysis early in the design process to develop thestructures' mechanical properties.
Mjukvarubaserad 3D-renderare
Abstrakt
Produkten som jag har utvecklat är en mjukvarubaserad 3D-renderare. För att göra
en sådan produkt är man tvungen att gå djupt in i området 3D och utföra alla
beräkningar på egen hand. Dessa tar annars grafikkortet hand om.
Denna rapport förklarar varför jag har valt att göra en egen mjukvarubaserad 3D-
renderare och vad den är för något och i vilka områden den används.
Här förklaras även min syn på programmering, digitala spel, vad programmering
innebär för mig och hur min syn på spel har påverkat mig med tiden. Jag tar även
upp mina tankar om spelindustrin och samhällets misstolkade värderingar av spel
samt vad för sorts spel jag anser skulle gynna mänskligheten i framtiden. Vad
jag
tycker om utbildningen Digitala spel nämns också samt hur jag tror att den
skulle
kunna förbättras.
Slutligen följer en kortfattad beskrivning av hur mitt projekt har genomförts.
Abstract
The product I have been developing is a software based 3D renderer.

Agila metoder i stora företag : Hinder och möjligheter under initiativfasenvid implementation av agila metoder
Som svar på ökade krav på IT-relaterade produkter har de så kallade agilautvecklingsmetoderna uppfunnits. Förespråkare för agila metoder hävdar att bättreresultat kan uppnås genom minskning av tydliga, strikta kravspecifikationer,dokumentation och planering inom projekt till förmån för ett större fokus på småsjälvorganiserande arbetsgrupper och ett iterativt utvecklingssätt.De värderingar och den praxis som är förknippade med agila metoder ter sig vara meranpassade för små företag , på grund av den tunga betoningen på små självständigagrupper och brist på formell styrning och kontrakt. Syftet med detta examensarbete harsin grund i den oppositionen. Vilka omständigheter uppstår när en avdelning på ett stortföretag vill omvandla sin projektmetodik till en agil? Specifikt utförs en fallstudie på enutvecklingsavdelning ett stort IT-företag med över 69 000 anställda världen över.I det studerade fallet visar resultaten att intresset för agila metoder är korrelerat mednärheten till mjukvaruutvecklingsprocessen .
Skada eller nytta? : En idékritisk analys av det internationella biståndets teoretiska grunder
Bachelor essay in political science by Marie Åberg, autumn 2011. ?Harm or benefit? A critical view of the theoretical grounds of the international development aid?. Supervisor: Professor Mats Lindberg. The first of the dual purpose of this essay is to present international aid policy ideas and the theoretical grounds of international development aid.
Ledarskap inom ramen för ett systemutvecklingsprojekt : fokus på en arbetsprocess med stöd i Vattenfallsmodellen
Many research reports mention the fact that a huge number of all system development projects never reach a successful ending; with other words never fulfil formulated goals. By identifying and forming success factors (and in some aspect risk factors) that the project manager in practice can use, this study may be seen as a step in the direction towards minimising the high number of failed system development projects. The purpose of this research report is to investigate how a system development project, where the development process is based on a specific development or process model (in this case the Waterfall model), can and should be driven. I aim to clarify what is demanded of a project leader for the specific development process and give an account for which eventual leadership qualities that can be well suited for given situation in relation to the need for technical competence. Among other things the project manager should inspire confidence, drive, be a decision maker, engage and own some form of basic knowledge in the field of system development.
Utvärdering av Near Field Communication och Certified Wireless USB: Säkerhet vid utveckling av applikationer
Today?s society is one where technological advances are made daily, which
increases the need to stop and assess the risks against users? integrity when
integrating new technology in contemporary systems all the greater. We have
taken two technologies, Near Field Communication and Certified Wireless USB,
whose envisioned area of use is to be integrated into mobile phones, and
evaluated what security threats are revealed for the respective technologies.
The threats against security have been identified through research of the
standards and existing reports for each technology. Practical experiments have
not been conducted on account of us not having access to any equipment to run
such trials.

Utvärdering av mikrofon- och högtalarelement för högtalartelefonsapplikation
The project deals with the evaluation and testing of speaker and microphone elements as well as microphone cavity.The first part of the report comprises a comprehensive theoretical part about drivers, microphone elements, and to some extent microphone cavity.The goal was to , on the behalf of the company Limes Audio AB, develop proposals on microphone element and cavity as well as drivers for a speakerphone application, based on specific factors. The main factors were performance, price and form factor.The aim was to create the best possible conditions for Limes Audio's software developers to implement the company's audio-enhancing software, mainly adaptive echo cancellation.The testing was carried out using Adobe Audition and MatLab. The test methods were developed in conjunction with Limes Audio and are described below.The project will result in suggestions for a speaker, a microphone and a cavity. The cavity were removed from the product because the results indicated that the cavity matter little for the end result.The report concludes with a discussion on how the measurements could have been enhanced to simplify the interpretation of the results and making the testing more efficient..
IT-företag möter kund ? en pedagogisk betraktelse.
The aim of this thesis is to analyse and if possible improve the communication, mainly seen from a pedagogical perspective, between the IT company (Nostratic) and their clients in a first meeting. The analysis covers the preparation part, communication during the meetings, the technical terminology used during the meetings as well as the follow up of the meetings. Due to the lack of research within this area and the lack of personal experience on my part, the conducted study has been explorative with the use of qualitative methods. Although my first aim was to put emphisis on the pedagogical part of the communication, I found while conducting the study that there were other areas of higher importance to analyse in order to improve the customer meetings. Unfortunately the company went bankrupt in the middle of my study which resulted in me not beeing able to try out the potential improvements.
An African Beacon of Prosperity: En kvalitativ analys av fattigdomsbek?mpning och h?llbar utveckling i Etiopien

development through strategies used for the reduction of poverty. With the methodology of
content analysis of three policy documents to provide and easy overview of how the government
of Ethiopia is planning to achieve sustainable and long-term poverty alleviation. The focus of
this study will be on Ethiopia, a country with very high economic growth in the past years but
still with hight poverty rates. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the already existing
and broad knowledge and research of sustainable development and poverty alleviation and
contribute with more research in Ethiopia where the research done in this specific area and
region is not in abundance. In this study all dimensions of sustainable development, social,
economic and ecological are included to get a more holistic picture of the sustainable
development in the government?s plans and its challenges.
