Gender equality and gender equality work is relevant for today's working life, and previously male-dominated occupations may be increasingly under pressure to become more equal. This paper aims to explore and understand how the firefighters at a station are experiencing gender and gender equality in rescue services.Using theories of how sex is done, how a power perspective and a structural approach can show men's and women's different conditions in an organization, and theories that are more specific to gender and change management the firefighters talk about gender and gender equality are analyzed. Essay results were collected through interviews with seven firefighters and then analyzed and interpreted with the help of theories.The analysis shows that there is a perception among the firefighters that men and women are biologically different and that required physical strength legitimizes the exclusion of women. Inequality is seen as something natural and by pursuing an active gender equality women are given unwarranted benefits. When physical strength becomes a legitimate reason for exclusion, the responsibility for gender inequality is put on women and that women don?t have what it takes.There is also a resistance against gender equality analyzed in the paper, and it's stated opposition seems to be directed against the management's way of recruiting women.

The retail sector is in a continuous development. What demand looks like and where the consumers want to shop has changed during the last years. Market place, demand, supply, external factors and politics affect how the retail sector develops. To make a market place attractive a variety of factors have to be considered.In Hong Kong a model called Rail & Property is used, this means that the development of the subway is integrated with the development of the city. The model is both successful and economically sustainable.Today the supply of shops and services in Stockholm´s subway stations is rather small.

Bakgrund Cerebral pares ?r ett begrepp som anv?nds f?r flera typer av motoriska funktionshinder d?r neurologiska symtom ?r en gemensam n?mnare f?r det olika typerna.

This diploma-work assess the public outdoor space. It has its starting point in, Ålidhem, a town district of Umeå. I have been studying public spaces in the outdoor environment. In this essay this refers to the spaces between the houses. What they are, what they contain, how they function and how they can improved.

Relationship between social behaviour, feeding behaviour and performance of boars using single-space feeders A study on the behavioural patterns of growing boars is presented. The study was preformed at Quality Genetics? boar testing station MÃ¥nseryd in Sweden. The boars were purebred Yorkshire, Hampshire or Landrace, born in nine different nucleus farms. The study is based on two batches of boars, with 63 and 69 boars respectively.

De senaste åren har det uppkommit ett ökat behov av inhemskt virke inom SCA. Detta framförallt på grund av ökad virkesefterfrågan från de egna industrierna. Eftersom inte SCA Skogs eget skogsinnehav på 2.6 milj ha räcker till för försörjningen av industrierna har man anställt fler virkesköpare som har i uppdrag att köpa råvara från privata markägare. För att sätta fokus på hur SCAs arbete fungerar mot sina virkesleverantörer/kunder har jag gjort en enkätstudie på detta. Studien är uppdelad i tre delar; litteraturstudie, enkätundersökning av kundnöjdhet och en excel-modell för uppföljning av kundnöjdheten baserad på enkäten.

That air pollutants of different kind has impact on our climate can hardly haveavoided anyone during the past years environment explosion in the media. But howis it actually with the reverse, i. e. the climate's impact on air pollutants? The aimwith our degree thesis is to try to find out if different weather factors, statisticallyseen, promotes atmospheric pollutants and particles in the air and vice versa.We got access to data on air pollutants and weather factors that was registeredduring year 2007 at Femmanhusets air pollutant and weather station in Gothenburg.In order to do a statistical investigation of these data, and to be able to analyze if itoccurs relations of various kind, we used the statistics program SPSS.

Det ?vergripande syftet med denna studie ?r att med utg?ngspunkt i den fenomenografiska ansatsen unders?ka nio f?rskoll?rares uppfattningar av fenomenet tydligg?rande pedagogik som inkluderingsverktyg i l?rmilj?n utomhus. Studien placerar sig i kontaktytan mellan forskning om inkludering, tillg?ngliga l?rmilj?er utomhus och den praktiska till?mpningen av tydligg?rande pedagogik. Genom att studera f?rskoll?rares uppfattningar av fenomenet och hur f?rskoll?rare anser sig agera i sv?ra situationer som uppst?r i denna milj? har slutsatser kunnat dras kring hur och om tydligg?rande pedagogik anv?nds som ett inkluderingsverktyg.

Syftet med denna studie ?r att genom kvalitativa intervjuer unders?ka tolv l?rares vetskap om vad barn och ungdomar m?ter f?r sexuellt inneh?ll p? internet och sociala medier samt l?rarnas undervisning och utbildning kopplat till kunskapsomr?det Sexualitet, samtycke och relationer. I denna studie ing?r nio grundskoll?rare i samh?llskunskap f?r ?rskurs 4-6 och tre ?vriga grundskoll?rare f?r ?rskurs 4-6. Dessa l?rare har mellan ?tta m?nader och 40 ?rs arbetslivserfarenhet inom l?raryrket.

The use of combi-drilling during spring tillage has become very common in southern Sweden in recent years. Combi-drilling leads to fewer passes on the field and better plant nutrient utilisation. An example of a combi-drill is the Väderstad Rapid, which is very widely used in spring tillage in southern Sweden. The Rapid has separate fertiliser and seed coulters, which means that the draught requirement is relatively high. It thus requires large, heavy tractors, which compact the soil and are comparatively expensive to buy and run. A few years ago the Finnish combi-drill Tume Nova Combi came onto the Swedish market.

Natura 2000 is part of the European Union: s framework to protect and preserve biological diversity. Natura 2000- areas are by the goverment appointed to areas of national interest for preserving nature. Also wind power stations are appointed as of national interest and the reason for this is the goverments goal to get energy from reneweble energysources. This essay describes when both these intrests conflict eachother when it comes to building wind power stations within Natura 2000- areas. The main focus of this essay is a casestudy of two cases from two different counties, Dalarna- and Norrbotten county, where applications have been made to build wind power stations within existing Natura 2000- ares, both cases have reached the court dealing with enviromental issues.

De senaste tv? ?ren har medf?rt betydande f?r?ndringar i den makroekonomiska milj?n, b?de globalt och i Sverige. En l?ng period av gynnsamma styrr?ntor gav f?rdelar ?t fastighetsbolag, men den ?kade inflationen under den senaste perioden har lett till markant h?jning av styrr?ntan. I en tid av ?kad f?rsiktighet fr?n banker vid utl?ning och h?g efterfr?gan p? kapital, har stora svenska fastighetsbolag v?nt sig till kreditmarknaden genom f?retagsobligationer.

I have always lived around mines and around people work­ing with mines. They are a natural part of my life and, inev­itably, a great interest of mine. When time came to make a decision for a degree project, focusing on the mine context felt as natural as breathing.In LKABs underground mines, safety in fire accidents is a great priority. Of outmost importance for the escape is to have a personal gas filter for filtration of smoke and/or gas. My design project resulted in a concept which is aimed at shortening the user journey from the start of the accident until the user has applied the personal safety solution and is ready to escape.Throughout the project I?ve been working with a context which is heavily regulated, and all problems are serious, important ones.

This master thesis comprises analysis and dimensioning of a keyed joint between a generator axis and a hub with aid from the FEM-software ANSYS Workbench 13.0.The generator axis is a part of a hydroelectric power station that generates electricity with a reactions turbine, a Kaplan turbine. The existing keyway consists of one parallel key with the width 90 mm and height 45 mm. Due to a planned increase of the power of the generated power with 32 % a design study was needed to see if the keyed joint would be suitable for the extra force. Because of the fact that the axis diameter is bigger than the standards covers/recommends a the keyway had to be re-dimensioned. In an earlier assignment from Skellefteå Kraft AB to Sweco Energuide the keyway was planned to be properly dimensioned, but no final solution was approved.During this master thesis a number of different numerical tests were made.
