Housing construction very close to the lake Mälaren has become very popular today. One potential problem with these houses is the influence of the sea climate. Unprotected buildings are affected by strong winds and precipitation. So for that reason, it is very important to make an accurate climate investigation and use it for decision-making during the planning of the new settlement.It is very important with a good moisture protection regarding pelting rain, that is the combination of wind and rain. This is more important for buildings close to a lake, as this location normally means a higher exposure to wind.

The thesis of this Masterpaper has been to analyse what tendencies there might be to distinguish structural alterations in the publishing business today and how they can be understood analytically. The following questions have helped form the principal opinions found in this essay: - What tendencies according to the alterations in publishing business is Piratförlaget representing? -What tendencies according to the alterations in publishing are the literary agents representing? What tendencies regarding the alterations in publishing are the electronic publishing and other techniques related to the publishing business representing? Participants, familiar with the publishing industry in various ways, have been interviewed. The main theory is based on facts from sociology of literature, although Faheys and Randalls Key Scenario, with its driving forces, also provided a great deal of help. In addition, to structure the dynamical publishing business, Peter Senges The Systems Iceberg Model was useful.

This report is of technical character and treats how to plan a small building in Borlänge, Sweden.The technical components that have been treated in the report are the construction, foundation,installations and thermic abilities of the house. In addition to planning this house the report alsocontains a part that deepens in net zero energy buildings. The purpose of the report is toinvestigate if the house in Borlänge can be constructed to meet net zero energy buildingdemands.Energy efficient houses such as passive- and net zero energy houses are showing more frequenton the market in Sweden. Ongoing climate changes and growing consciousness about theenvironment in society have contributed to that the environment is a well discussed topic. Toconsume small amounts of energy and at the same time produce local energy is thereforesomething that lies in the future and future houses.

During the past few years an increased attention has been paid to environmental issues in the construction and property sector in Sweden. In order to simplify the work with these issues a Swedish environmental certification system for buildings called Miljöbyggnad has been developed. This thesis aims to investigate the opinion of a selected number of selected property owners of Miljöbyggnad. From that basis recommendations and actions for the future work with the system will be presented.The investigation has been conducted through personal interviews with five property owners. The main issues that the interviews have been based on are their purpose, experiences, perceived complications and future prospects in terms of certification using Miljöbyggnad.The system intends to be cost-effective, simple and to offer a relevant environmental assessment of buildings and the result from the report indicates that this is largely fulfilled.

Speaking of budget and budgeting is almost as adding fuel to the fire. The subject evokes a lot of emotions, both positive and negative. Some might consider budgets as a bureaucratic process that won?t lead to any good. Others might find budgets as extremely helpful and necessary in a company?s planning process.

The purpose of this essay is to examine the Swedish people?s level of knowledge about crowdfunding and their incentives and deterrents to crowdfunding investments. Early on crowdfunding was divided into two objectives: reward based and equity based crowdfunding. The division of objectives is logical due to the differencing conditions of the motivation for investors to invest. Supported by theories in crowdfunding incentives, commitment-trust, the prospect theory, and the diffusion of innovations, we aim to establish a comprehensive line of reasoning to support our model of motivation in the conclusive chapter.The results of this essay were achieved by a combined method.

The aim of this study is to provide an investigation of an ?old? political phenomenon that over the recent years has enjoyed a considerable revival across Europe. This study about nationalism is mainly based on empirical second hand source material from literature and articles providing us with both a historical as well as a contemporary insight in this ideology. This study shows us the complexity and the difficulties that the academia is facing regarding nationalism due to the dynamic nature of the ideology, in the sense that it simply means different things to different peoples in different cultures across different points in time. The study is conducted by using a phenomenological, qualitative and inductive method of gathering and interpreting information.  A handful of books have formed the foundation through the gathering of relevant empirical information, along with articles from both scientific publications as well as the mainstream media. The data have been studied and laid out to make key points regarding nationalism and the theory behind it clear for the reader.

Syftet med examensarbetet är att studera och analysera hur möten mellan olika människor och livsstilar sker på offentliga plaster och stråk i centrala Malmö. Examensarbetet belyser begreppen offentligt rum, möten, livsstil, identitet och försöker ge svar på varför det är viktigt att människor med olika bakgrund och kultur möts, och vad det kan få för konsekvenser om möten inte sker, samt hur stadens offentliga rum kan utformas för att gynna sådana möten. Examensarbetet baseras på litteraturstudier samt egna betraktelser och iakttagelser vid besök i Malmö. Arbetet inleds med en kortfattad beskrivning om industristaden Malmös förvandlig till kunskapsstad. Därefter följer en utveckling av teorier och begrepp kring möten, livsstil och rum. Vidare följer beskrivningar och analyser av två centrala områden i Malmö; Ribersborgsstranden - Västra hamnen - Stapelbäddsparken (område A) och Stortorget - Lilla torg - Gustav Adolfs torg ? Möllevångstorget - samt stråket mellan dessa platser (område B).

Detta examensarbetet är skrivet på magisterprogrammet för Fysisk planering vid Blekinge Tekniska Högskola och omfattar 30 högskolepoäng. Syftet med uppsatsen är att visa ett förslag för en framtida sträckning av ett system av spårbilar och stationer i Tyresö. Arbetet utgår från konkreta mål, riktlinjer och visioner som formulerats på internationell, nationell, regional och kommunal nivå gällande hållbar utveckling och transportsystem. Dessa visioner stämmer ofta dåligt överens med den faktiska utveckling vi kan se idag vilket gör det mycket intressant att hitta alternativa och kompletterande lösningar till dagens transportsystem. På global nivå efterlyser FN miljövänligare, tystare och mer användarvänliga transport- och kommunikationssystem eftersom dagens transportsektor, där bilen står i fokus, förbrukar stora mängder icke-förnybar energi, mark- och vattenresurser samt missgynnar flera grupper i samhället. Det nationella transportpolitiska målet innebär att transportpolitiken ska säkerställa en samhällsekonomiskt effektiv och långsiktigt hållbar transportförsörjning, ett mål som SIKA, Statens Institut för Kommunikationsanalys, i dagsläget bedömer vara mycket svårt att uppnå. På regional nivå menar utvecklingsplanen för stockholmsregionen, RUFS 2010, att regionen idag riskerar en tudelning som en följd av det hårt ansträngda vägnätet och efterlyser bättre kollektivtrafik. Statliga utredningar gjorda av SIKA och RUFS 2010 pekar ut en satsning på spårbilar som mycket intressant för att komma tillrätta med de högt ställda transportpolitiska målen och som komplement till dagens bilberoende transportsystem.

SAMMANFATTNING Arbetet syftar till att komma fram till ett förslag för en framtida expansion i Eksundsområdet med pendeltågstation samt en utveckling av Torps villasamhälle 6 respektive 9 kilometer väster om Norrköpings centrum. De båda områdena består i dag av fritidshusområden som delvis är under övergång mot åretruntboende samt områden av permanent bostadsbebyggelse. I arbetet ingår en inventering av förutsättningar och intressen för området och sedan en geografisk bedömning av lämpliga utvecklingsområden för eventuell exploatering. De utvecklingsområden som vuxit fram i arbetet är belägna kring Eksund-Strandhugget samt kring Torps villasamhälle. I dessa två områden har en visuell landskapsanalys gjorts, som de två planförslagen delvis bygger på. Huvuddragen och ambitionen som behärskar de båda förslagen är att nyttja ett befintligt järnvägstråk, för att skapa ett stationsnära boende i Eksundsområdet.

AbstractThe purpose of this minor thesis is to describe and systematize the Swedish debate about Sweden?s participation in the defence community of the European Union. Should Sweden take part of this or not? My aim is to describe the debate in a structured and legible way, so that the reader can get a comprehensive picture. The questions of the study are:· Which actors join in the Swedish debate about Sweden?s military participation in the EU:s defensive community; the possible common defence of the EU and the EU:s military crisis management?· Which arguments are delivered (for and against) in the debate?To be able to fulfil the aim of this study I have done an argumentation analysis.

An auditors? job is to review the company's figures and, as an independent part, give an accurate picture of its financial situation. Auditors have to relate to ISA where ISA 570 can be found and which deals with the going concern. The standard addresses a couple of factors that may be indications that a company can have problems with their continued operation. The problem is that ISA does not evaluate the events, which is more significant than others in the assessment, but it is up to the auditor to consider.The purpose of this paper is to describe the factors, which the auditor believes is more important than others in assessing the going concern and explain why it is so.

What is masculinity and what does it mean to be a man?This study involves two different areas: gender and literary reception.
