The regulations for energy consumption are consistently getting more and morestrict. This leads to a higher customer demand for energy analysis early in the buildingdesign process. Many building planners and architects use powerful modeling softwareto visualize their projects. These digital models contain sufficient information aboutthe building?s physical characteristics for reliable energy analysis.

The landscape with its associated historical tracks and remains are an important part of our cultural heritage that we consider important to conserve. The stone walls are an example of historical remains that helps to build up this cultural heritage. It is a landscape element that today usually is being associated with the old cultivated landscape, where they mainly functioned as boundary markings and fences. Today, the stone wall is a valuable element in the landscape with ecological, culture-historical and aesthetic values. Since the stone walls arose as elements in the landscape a lot has been changed within the agriculture.

För att förhindra övergödning används skyddszoner i stora delar av Sverige där jordbruk utförs. Det finns även andra faktorer som kan bidra till, eller förhindra, förluster av sediment via fluviala element i landskapet. Variationer i ett vattendrags omland påverkar hur den fluviala transporten av sediment ser ut. Syftet med den här studien är att kartlägga vilka faktorer som kan påverka hur transporten av upplöst sediment ser ut i Librobäckens nedre delar. Hur variationer i omgivningsmiljön skulle kunna skapa variationer i transporten av upplöst sediment.

In the area of short stories there is little doubt that Roald Dahl has been an influential writer. Dahl´s short stories have been presented to the general public through TVbraodcasts but in order to grasp the true spirit of Dahl´s writing the best method is, of course, reading his books. The fictional works of Roald Dahl can be divided into two major categories: stories for adults and stories for children. This essay is concerned with the second grouping and is an attempt to analyse three themes that are of particular importance to his work. After a brief biographical note on the author, the essay analyses the element of the macabre in Dahl?s writing.

The essay circulates around the technological analysis of flint material from four localities around the Baltic Sea basin. The analysis was created to investigate the question of where the first Gotlandic settlers originated from and to give clues about the colonization process. The investigated material was collected during the fall of 2011 and a correspondence analysis is used to analyze the collected material. The purpose of using a correspondence analysis is to test the method as a tool for investigating Mesolithic flint technologies. The essay also discusses marine hunter-gatherers, their economy and how their archeological remains differ from terrestrial hunter-gatherers..

This thesis has been performed at Scania CV AB Technical Centre in Södertälje and its aim hasbeen to study the causes and effects of deformations in the interface between the rear axlehousing ADA1100 and the central gear house R780 during operation. Design changes that wouldincrease the sealing capability of the studied interface are also suggested. Finite element (FE)and CAD software have been the primary tools in this study.Finite element (FE) simulations are used in the industry to predict and develop engineeringdesigns. The main motive for FE simulations has traditionally been to identify weak spots in thedesign, regarding high tensions and large deformations.The FE model is an aggregation of submodels and interface models that represents the rear axlehousing, suspension, central gear, central gear housing, wheels, bolts and weldings, and theirinteractions. The submodels have different material properties and they are connected withcontact interface models.Boundary conditions are defined on the bushings in front of the rear axle and on the air bellowsbehind the rear axle.

With the help of image analysis and scent theory, we have made an analysis that explains how the perfume smells in advertising. There are many different factors that play a role in our perception of smell by image. We have found that using the connotations we can get a sense of the scent. What helps us along the way, the colors, the women and the environment. From this one different conclusions are mad and we create a scent sensation..

Detta examensarbete syftar till att observera och diskutera bruket av en pedagogisk praxis som berör populär- och ungdomskultur inom bildämnet. Problemställningen täcker aspekter som den populärkulturella integrationen i dagens bildundervisning, ungdoms-kulturens fördelar och nackdelar i undervisningssammanhang, samt hur bildpedagoger kan närma sig en engagemangspedagogik som på lämpligt sätt drar fördel av populär- och ungdomskultur. Undersökningen som utfördes är en kvalitativ-kvantitativ intervju/enkät som fokuserar på tjugo stycken kommunalt yrkesverksamma lärare. Frågorna berörde punkter som deras föreställningar och resonemang kring den egna praktiken och dess tematiska innehåll och arbetsmetoder, samt vilka professionella värderingar de lägger till begrepp som tradition, ungdomskultur och senmodernitet i koppling till bildundervisning. Studien samlade också in data på lärararnas observationer gällande önskemål och viljor hos elever kring ett populärkulturellt ämnesinnehåll.

The purpose of this essay is to examine cost-benefit-analysis as a method of evaluation of labour market policy. To illustrate the possibilities and difficulties of the method chapter four contains a partial cost-benefit-analysis of the results of a labour market project in Kävlinge. The questions this essay strives to answer are the following: What possibilities and difficulties do cost-benefit-analyses entail? How would one conduct a cost-benefit-analysis of the project in Kävlinge?The method used in this essay is mainly a literature study of cost-benefit-analysis of labour market programs. The labour market project Brännpunkt is used as an example in a partial cost-benefit-analysis.The applied cost-benefit-analysis of the Brännpunkt project in Kävlinge shows that it is possible to calculate the profit for the society as a whole, given that the necessary information is obtainable.

Som alla vet och som alla läst har användandet av Internet ökat explosionsartat de sista tio åren vilket har lett till att mängden information som nu finns tillgänglig på några sekunders avstånd in i framtiden är gigantiskt. Då fler och fler företag vill nå ut till den breda publik som Internet har, måste de skapa webbsajter på ett sådant sätt att de fångar besökarnas intresse snabbt och får dem att göra återbesök. Detta gör givetvis konkurrensen om kunderna stenhård. Hur kan man då fånga intresset hos besökare för att få en större chans att påverka dem positivt och det snabbt? Den här rapporten riktar sig framförallt till utvecklare av webbapplikationer som vill se vad som är avgörande för att försöka locka till sig fler besökare och för att behålla de som redan finns.

The aim of this Master thesis is, from a sociocultural perspective, to investigate the views the teaching librarians at Södertörn University Library (SHB) have on learning, information literacy, and their own pedagogical role, and how their views affect user education and their ideas about the future of user education.The research questions used were: How do the teaching librarians view learning? How is this view reflected in their work with user education? How do the teaching librarians envisage user education in the future, and how do they work to reach that goal?Five semi-structured interviews were conducted with the teaching librarians at SHB. The interviews were then analysed using qualitative content analysis.The results of the study show that the teaching librarians at SHB share a sociocultural view on learning, and take a communicative oriented approach to user education. They believe that communication and interaction support learning, and in the classroom they stimulate discussions both between librarian and student, and between the students themselves. In the future, they hope for improved collaboration between librarians and academic staff, and that user education will become a natural element of the curriculum..

Uppsatsens syfte är att belysa enskilda ideella jourkvinnors syn på kvinnojoursrörelsen och påsitt engagemang i denna rörelse. Följande frågeställningar ligger till grund för uppsatsen:? Vilka motiv uppger jourkvinnorna för sitt ideella engagemang i kvinnojouren?? Hur ser de på sitt uppdrag?? Hur ser de på kvinnojourer som verksamhet och rörelse?? Hur förhåller sig jourkvinnorna till bärande element i kvinnojoursrörelsen?De flesta kvinnojourer i Sverige drivs av ideella föreningar och utför dagligen ett mer ellermindre frivilligt socialt arbete med våldsutsatta kvinnor och barn. Jourkvinna är denvanligaste titeln på frivilligt engagerade på ideella kvinnojourer. De svenska kvinnojourernaär sprungna ur 1970-talets västerländska kvinnorörelse.

The work was carried out on Termisk Systemteknisk?s office in Linköping. The aim was to create a computer system with infrared camera technology for quality control and temperature monitoring of manufacturing processes in industry. The system should be configurable such that it can be used on several different issues, including those where the real-time analysis of camera images is required.The developed system is based on an existing framework, Panola, to deal with measurement results and images in a database. The framework is built for the system continually check for new data , and the task was to create a foundation upon which to build systems that use the framework, but fully or partially utilize direct calls .

The purpose of this thesis was to develop and optimize a method of analysis for combustion of organic chemical products, followed by an ion chromatographic quantitative analysis. This was to be achieved with the decomposition equipment IKA AOD 1. The aim was to receive a precise and repeatable method that would be able to be applied to the process of qualification and technical marking of chemical products at the company, OKG AB in Oskarshamn. A complete instruction for the decomposition equipment and the method of analysis was written. A number of parameters were chosen from the general method of the combustion equipment, which then was tested parallel with a simultaneous development of an appropriate ion chromatographic method.

I den här kandidatuppsatsen betraktar vi ett illa ställt Cauhy-problem för värmeekvationen i tunna väggar. Problemet kan matematiskt formuleras som: givet brusiga mätningar u x(L, t) och u(L, t) av ux(L, t) och u(L, t) längs linjen x = L bestäm lösningen för u(x, t) för 0 ? x, där u uppfyller värmeledningsekvationen ut = ((x)ux)x. Problemet dyker upp i många tillämpningar när man vill uppskatta en temperatur men att en direkt mätning inte låter sig göras. Man mäter en temperatur på ett annat ställe och beräknar temperaturen i den punkt man är intresserad av. Tyngdpunkten i uppsatsen ligger i att undersöka det inversa värmeproblemet i en vägg med flera lager.
