Erik Andersson: Utanför Murarna: En studie av Ulf Lundells och rockkulturens outsiderpositionering. Uppsala universitet: Institutionen för musikvetenskap, 2007.The main aim of this essay is to show how the artist Ulf Lundell presents himself as someone with an outsider's view of life. This also includes showing that this aspiration is a common one among artists in the rock culture.The aim was reached by studying texts, lyrics, interviews, articles of and with Lundell and then applying theories about authenticity and performativity on this material. In order to put this in a context I looked at a similar material but with a much broader perspective, artists from different countries, genres and eras is here included.The conclusion of this study is that a kind of norm system in the rock culture has developed and Lundell is acting accordingly to these rules. The outsider position has become an important ingredient in Lundell's persona and this position can also be seen as a given norm in the wider context.

The concept of building work environment co- ordinator is a relatively new concept that has its origin in the amendment to the Working Environment Act which came into force on 1 January 2009. The terms; building work environment co-ordinator appointed for planning and design and building work environment co-ordinator for the execution of building or civil engineering work ushered in the industry. Once these disciplines complement one another, you can achieve a smooth handover to ensure a good and healthy working environment.In this thesis, we study a company in Uppsala and their operations and handover by interviewing the relevant staff in question. The result shows that there are currently no present guidelines for how and when the handover should take place, it is up to each individual to provide themselves with the relevant information.If the handover of the work environment would occur to the extent it should it would lead to minimized proportions of unforeseen risks and events that may occur during the production phase, which ultimately leads to a better and healthier working environment..

Dione kullager AB is a company in Uppsala, which sell industrialmachinecomponents, transmissionsolutions and provides repair serviceof hydraulic components.When a hydraulic cylinder is about tobe repaired it needs to bedisassembled. Because hydrauliccylinders usually work in dirtyenvironments and are heavilyworn some types of cylinders arealmost impossible to disassemble.Today the disassemble is made by hand,which means extra work for themechanics. In order to facilitate thedismantling of this type of cylindersa machine is to be developed for thispurpose and this is where this thesisbegins.The thesis has been organized in threephases: Literature study in whichfacts and theories are acquired.Concept generation in which differentconcepts, calculations, and solutionswere identified and selected. Thedesign phase where all the differentconcepts of components were assembledand simulated in SolidWorks. Similarstructures have also been studied inorder to identify necessary functions.The thesis resulted in a structurewhich is believed to meet therequirements.

Arbetslöshet och/eller lÄngtidssjukskrivning hos förÀldrar Àr en vanlig situation för mÄnga tonÄringar. PÄverkar det deras framtidstro? En deskriptiv studie av ca 6 500 tonÄringar i Uppsala LÀn genomfördes i syfte att se huruvida deras framtidstro samvarierade med förÀldrarnas arbetssituation. KontrollfrÄgor gÀllande depression, dialog med förÀldrar, vÀlmÄende samt nöjdhet med livet analyserades likasÄ. Sambandet mellan förÀldrars arbetssituation och tonÄringens framtidssyn var inte signifikant.

Swedish agriculture faces future challenges regarding food production and land use. Increased competition for agricultural land creates complex situations, where conflicts may arise when productive crop land is in demand not only for food production but also energy- and fodder production. On top of that there is an obvious conflict of goals between agricultural production and non-agricultural exploitation of agricultural land. In several emerging economic regions it is noticeable how agricultural land is being expropriated for development of urban settlement and infrastructure, carrying potentially significant long-term effects. During the last decade the exploitation of agricultural land in activities other than food production has increased in Sweden and is expected to continue in the same manor. Approximately 700 hectare of land in Sweden is diverted from food production, annually, and in 2013, the Uppsala Municipality showed the greatest change in land use of all municipalities (SCB, 2013).

Syftet med denna uppsats ?r att f? en ?kad f?rst?else f?r hur tillitsbaserad styrning och ledning ordnas av och ordnar akt?rer i en kunskapsintensiv h?gteknologisk del av den offentligt drivna h?lso- och sjukv?rden. Med teoretisk utg?ngspunkt i teknik och vetenskapsstudier ?r utg?ngspunkten att b?de forskning och till?mpningen av resultaten ?r sociala aktiviteter och kan d?rigenom studeras som s?dana. Med konceptuella resurser fr?n standardiseringssociologi och modes of ordering analyseras de uttryck tillitsbaserad styrning och ledning f?r i verksamheten. Detta ?r en empirisk fallstudie med intervjuer och genomg?ng av dokument. Genom kvalitativa intervjuer och dokument har jag f?tt beskrivningar om vad tillitsbaserad styrning och ledning uppfattas vara, antaganden om effekt och insyn i vilka konkreta uttryck en tillitsbaserad styrning och ledning kan ta sig. Utifr?n genererat material identifierar jag tv? olika s?tt som akt?rer ordnar och ordnas utifr?n id?n om tillitsbaserad styrning och ledning.

I den svenska skollagen inf?rdes 2010 skrivningar om att f?rskolans utbildning, som en del av skolv?sendet, ska vila p? vetenskaplig grund och bepr?vad erfarenhet (SFS 2010:800, kap 1, 5 ?). F?r att till?mpa lagen har f?rskoll?rare beh?vt konstruera uppfattningar om vad begreppen inneb?r d? de inte st?r definierade i skollagen som ?r en ramlag. Denna studie syftar till att unders?ka fr?gest?llningarna som handlar om hur f?rskoll?rare uppfattar inneb?rden av begreppen vetenskaplig grund och bepr?vad erfarenhet i f?rskolan samt m?jligheter och sv?righeter med att till?mpa begreppen i praktiken.

Bakgrund: Sepsis ?r ett potentiellt livshotande tillst?nd som kr?ver snabb identifiering och behandling. Sjuksk?terskan spelar en central roll i det initiala omh?ndertagandet, men tidigare forskning har i huvudsak fokuserat p? medicinska aspekter snarare ?n sjuksk?terskors egna upplevelser. Syfte: Syftet var att unders?ka sjuksk?terskors upplevelser av att v?rda patienter med misst?nkt sepsis.

Bakgrund: Katastrofers frekvens och komplexitet ?kar globalt i v?rlden vilket leder till ?kade krav p? samh?llet i stort samt p? h?lso- och sjukv?rden. Intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskan har en central roll vid katastrofer f?r att uppr?tth?lla patients?kerheten, vilket belyser det ?kade behovet av intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskans kompetens samt behovet av ny kunskap kring omv?rdnad vid katastrofer, resiliens och katastrofberedskap. Syfte: Att identifiera faktorer av betydelse f?r intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskans yrkesut?vande i katastrof. Metod: Systematisk litteratur?versikt med induktiv ansats samt tematisk analys av data.

Aim: The aims of this essay were first to see if there were any factors that could have an inpact on participating in supportive care groups and activities after a prostatic cancer diagnosis. The second aim was to examine what kind of support the patients would chose. Methods: Data was collected with a survey handed out to the prostate cancer patients visiting the urologist reception at the hospital in Uppsala, during two weeks in the fall of 2011. Main Results: Men show very little interest in participating in supportive care groups and activities. When asked to chose which kind of support they could consider, individual sessions and group sessions were the most common choice. Conclusion: Men diagnosed with prostate cancer chose not to participate in supportive care. Further studies are required to determine what may be the reason to that..

This thesis has been carried out in autumn 2009 at Uppsala University for Boliden Mineral AB. Physical modelling has been used to model a comminution circuit. The model has then been linked to a PLC.When a concentrator is about to become operational Boliden Mineral AB have been looking for a way to test the PLC. The purpose of this report has therefore been to develop models for the subprocess in a concentrator and link these models to the PLC. The subprocess was a comminution circuit in Aitik36.

This paper is a study of 18 extant pieces of panegyrical music for the Swedish king Karl XI (1655?1697). The compositions are preserved in two forms. There are a few contemporary prints, but the largest amount of music is preserved as manuscripts in the DĂŒben­collection (Uppsala University Library). The paper focuses on four different aspects of the production of these 18 compositions.

Uppsala University Library owns eight volumes of manuscripts attributed to the academy equerry Johan Leven Ekelund (c.1701?1775). In this thesis, I apply methods from the field of material culture studies in order to establish which of the volumes that formed the donation from Leven to the library mentioned in his will. By mapping certain markers such as places, names and dates I am able to identify to some extent where Leven gained his practical skills and which writers influenced him. By analysing the texts, I draw the conclusion that the manuscripts can be divided into groups aimed for different audiences.
