This thesis has been performed at International Aluminum Casting AB in Eskilstuna,Sweden.International Aluminum Casting is currently working with a number of improvementsin their production in order to achieve their vision of being the leading aluminum foundry in Sweden. As a step in their improvement efforts, focus was directed ondeveloping the company's fixtures for machining.Efforts were focused on two main objectives: to develop a complete proposal on afixture which leads to a more rational use of an assigned part and also form general design advice for development of fixtures in the future.During the work progress, discussions have been made with experts at International Aluminum Casting within the field of fixture design. The objective was to obtain sufficient knowledge about the underlying problems with the current fixture for the part. At this stage of the thesis, a number of essential criteria for fixture design were produced. Information and inspiration were obtained by examining the company?s currently developed fixtures.After gathering the necessary information the process of developing three different fixture concepts started.

Ambitionen och mÄlet med mitt projekt var att visualisera delar av en berÀttelse med hjÀlp av den senaste datortekniken. Detta tog sin form av en 3d-animation. MÄlet var inte att producera en fÀrdig kortfilm utan att arbeta med utvalda delar. Projektet var indelat i tre block; en planerings- och researchfas, en produktionsfas och en reflektionsfas. Stora delar av magisterarbetet har bestÄtt av att producera innehÄll som sedan ska analyseras. Med arbetet vill jag att folk ska fÄ mer förstÄelse för 3d-tekniken som ett flexibelt och intressant konstverktyg.

This paper studies how the ?Swedish model? has influenced the Swedish community during the first half of the twentieth century and how living with this model was like in the 1960s. During the ?60s the laws and reforms created by the ruling socialistic party, SAP, dominated the Swedish society. Their goal was to build Per Albin Hansson?s vision of a welfare state.

Detta Àr en studie kring hur filmer framstÀller olika grupper som risker, till exempel muslimer som terrorister. Vi har gjort en kvalitativ studie av tre spelfilmer, nÀmligen Rambo III, BelÀgringen och The Kingdom samt en dokumentÀrfilm; Det svider i hjÀrtat. I dessa filmer har vi tittat efter hur muslimer framstÀlls. För att strukturera upp studien har vi valt ett tesdrivande tillvÀgagÄngssÀtt utifrÄn Karl Poppers metod och prövat en rad olika teoretiska begrepp och perspektiv. Dessa Àr Edward W.

Linda Freij (2009), Att anvÀnda visuell feedback som ett pedagogiskt verktyg. The use of visual feedback as a pedagogical tool. Jag har gjort en undersökning om visuell feedback. Syftet med undersökningen Àr att utveckla undervisning genom att anvÀnda undervisningsmetoder som film som ett pedagogiskt verktyg. Undersökningen riktar sig mest till yrkeslÀrarna inom HR- programmet och andra liknande program som i sin dagliga verksamhet kan komma att anvÀnda sig av digital videoteknik. För att uppnÄ mitt syfte har jag gjort en fÀltstudie pÄ min skola och för att öka min medvetenhet tillÀmpat deskriptionsmetoden och kvalitativ undersökning. Jag har stÀllt dessa frÄgor: Hur kan man anvÀnda film som feedback av en lÀrsituation? Vilka kunskaper kan en elev skaffa sig genom att bli filmad och dÀrefter se filmen pÄ sig sjÀlv? I analysen och diskussionen av fÀltstudien kom jag bland annat fram till att eleven genom filmning i den praktiska miljön, samt sedan se filmen som en visuell feedback sÄ kan kÀnnedom, tillÀmpning och förstÄelsen knytas samman.

Uppsatsen har som utgĂ„ngspunkt att studera hur vĂ„r identitet som svensk idealiseras i film och dĂ„ frĂ€mst genom Lars Hallströms Mitt liv som hund (1985) och Colin Nutleys ÄnglagĂ„rd (1992).Teorin som valts för analysen Ă€r identifikationsframstĂ€llning genom Frankfurterskolans ideologikritik, Foucaults lĂ€ror om diskurs, kunskap och makt samt identitetsbegreppet i sig och idenitetsframstĂ€llning. Genom tillĂ€mpandet av teorin ges möjligheten att kritiskt granska och omlĂ€sa de ovan nĂ€mnda filmerna i en omfattande analys. Metoder för uppsatsens analys Ă€r en fördjupad nĂ€rlĂ€sning och genomgĂ„ende omlĂ€sning utav de tvĂ„ filmerna.Uppsatsen utgĂ„r Ă€ven frĂ„n tvĂ„ frĂ„gestĂ€llningar som blir besvarade i ett analysresultat och sammanfattning. Genom en nĂ€ranalys av filmerna ges en möjlighet att se hur propaganda uppstĂ„r och verkar, dĂ„ filmernas idealiserande framstĂ€llning kan misstas och brukas som sanning. I analysernas reslutat framgĂ„r det Ă€ven att svenskhet vilar pĂ„ en grund av förestĂ€lld gemenskap dĂ€r man genom att tillĂ€mpa Peter Norman Waages teorier ser att idenitetsframtĂ€llningen som nation grundas pĂ„ det sĂ„ kallade ?omvĂ€nda kylskĂ„pet?.Identitet sammanför pĂ„ samma gĂ„ng som det söndrar dĂ„ det verkar med vĂ€rme inĂ„t och kyla utĂ„t, likt ett omvĂ€nt kylskĂ„p..

IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) tidigare IASC (International Accounting Standards Committee) har framarbetat de nya redovisningsreglerna IAS/IFRS (International Accounting Standards/International Financial Reporting Standards). Tanken med IFRS Àr att frÀmja god redovisningssed genom enhetliga redovisningsregler som underlÀttar jÀmförelser mellan företags koncernredovisningar. Syftet med uppsatsen Àr att diskutera de problem som kan uppstÄ vid implementering av IFRS i ett onoterat aktiebolag, revisorns roll vid implementering samt redovisning av pensioner reglerade av IAS19.VÄr studie Àr en kvalitativ fallstudie av deskriptiv karaktÀr som tar sin utgÄngspunkt i företaget Cramo AB. I uppsatsen kommer vi att följa implementeringsprocessen av IFRS i koncernredovisningen hos det onoterade bolaget.

Syfte: att sammanstÀlla vad som finns publicerat om digital avtrycksteknik och jÀmföra denna teknik med konventionell avtrycksteknik för fast kron- och broprotetik och pÄ sÄ sÀtt underlÀtta för operatörer att vÀlja metod. Material och metod: litteratursökningar gjordes via Pubmed, Science Direct och genom handsökning i International Journal of Computerized Dentistry och Quintessence International. Informationssökningar gjordes Àven via fabrikörernas hemsidor och i litteratur vid Malmö Högskolas Odontologiska bibliotek. Resultat: det finns ett fÄtal publikationer, varav de flesta Àr in vitro studier. De gav underlag för en jÀmförande diskussion av följande punkter: tidseffektivitet och anvÀndarvÀnlighet, precision och passform, kostnad, miljövÀnlighet samt patientvÀnlighet. Konklusion: denna litteraturstudie visar att pÄ grundval av de publikationer som finns idag sÄ fungerar den digitala avtryckstekniken tillfredsstÀllande och fullt jÀmförbart med konventionell teknik för fast kron- och broprotetik. Det finns idag vissa belÀgg för att digitala tekniker kan ersÀtta den konventionella vad gÀller precision. Det bör dock pÄpekas att de studier som finns tillgÀngliga idag Àr in vitro och dessa behöver kompletteras med och verifieras genom kliniska studier..

International trade in services has increased over the past 30 years as a result of progress in information and communication technology, increased focus on services from the manufacturing sector and the establishment of trade associations.The international market for healthcare services, also referred to as medical tourism, is growing more and more. Patients increasingly seeking treatment at other countries healthcare systems because of long queues within their own country or because it exists better prices for the same care abroad. However, this type of service exports occurs at a limited extent in Sweden.The purpose of this study is to highlight and analyze the conditions for Swedish service companies to export healthcare services. This, includes the challenges and opportunities that exist to expand the exports of these services.The approach for this study has been in the form of interviews with two market actors and written responses, from the same interview guide, with three market actors. These market participants are the so-called Care companies which export healthcare services in various counties, and the membership organization Swecare who work with export promotion activities for its members in the Swedish healthcare sector.

The purpose of this thesis is to historically describe how Fédération Internationale deFootball Association (FIFA) interprets how the discourse of anti-racism has developed withintheir own organization throughout the years. In doing so, the thesis lands in a present timeperspective and then aims to identify the norms which FIFA, according to the organizationitself, stands for in regard to anti-racism within world football. That standard of behavior isthen put in contrast with the hidden ideological conceptions which, with the applying of apost-colonial perspective, can be found in the rhetoric used by FIFA in expressing themselvesabout their anti-racism stand.The methodology used in this thesis builds upon a qualitative text analysis approach inwhich solely primary sources available through the official website fifa.com are considered.The study finds that anti-racism is a relatively young concept within FIFA and that the communicatedideal standard of behavior circles around terms such as unity, diversity, solidarityand equality. Further on, FIFA clearly articulates how the universal power of football as suchcan unite people and that FIFA, as the administrator of this the world?s greatest sport, can setan example for the rest of the world to follow when it comes to notions of tolerance and solidarityin preventing racism in the future.In following the terminology provided by the post-colonial theorists Homi Bhabha andGyatri Spivak, and applying the concepts of fixity and essentialism on the rhetoric aroundanti-racism, the study discovers that FIFA, in sharp contrast to the articulated norms, in factexpress ideological conceptions of skin as a barrier of difference between people, and thatFIFA on good grounds can be accused of reproducing racist stereotypes rather than bridgingthem.The study concludes that its findings clearly demonstrates the increased need of consideringsports, and more specifically international sport organizations, as a basis for researchwithin the academic field of International Relations, and that a postcolonial perspective verymuch can provide alternative understandings of how these actors operate and what influencethey might have in the international system..

The specified purpose was, based on gender, age and type of employment, study the employees motivation to participate in health projects and their reason to maintain exercise habits after the termination of the health projects. Exercise frequency was studied in relation to the other background variables. A revised version of the questionnaire Motivation for Maintenance of Exercise Habits (Josefsson, 2005) was distributed at Albany International, Halmstad. The most frequent cause to exercise was ?enhance my condition?.

The transformation among armed forces in Europe is a consequence due to shifted security perspective and the growth of international security actors, such as NATO and the EU. Sweden has played an active role in EU to ensure its influence in forming the security policy for the organisation. Some studies mean itŽs because of Sweden?s interest in strengthen EUs roll as a security actor they transformed their own armed forces to be able to take part in international operations. This transformation led to what can be called ?the Swedish defence dismantle? and some studies mean that it has led to the point where Sweden completely lacks the ability to defence themselves.The question is if the ambition to become an active member in these security organisations can explain all the decisions made throughout the Swedish defence-transformation, or if some decisions were made due to other factors?By studying the decision process leading up to the decision to locate the flight education to Malmen in Linköping this study seeks to answer why the decision was made.

Total amount of words: 15 269.In this essay, the purpose is to examine the personalization of Swedish national coaches during international championships in the Swedish tabloids. Research shows that a leader nowadays is representative for her organization. Therefore it could be assumed that the way the national coach is portrayed can have some kind of effect on the public opinion about the team as a unit and their sport federation in total. This essay is a quantitative study of the sport tabloids Sportbladet och SPORT-Expressen during three international championships: Euro 2012 in football, WC 2013 in ice hockey and Euro 2014 in handball. We have studied the coverage of the national coaches Erik Hamrén, PÀr MÄrts and Ola Lindgren/Staffan Olsson in contrast to the coverage of their teams in total.The main results are that the national coaches are mentioned in every second article that is written about the national teams during the championships. They are mainly portrayed in a neutral way, even though the coverage of them is affected by the results in the matches.

This is the final documentation of the basis that can be the foundation of how to solve theproblem with leaking hydraulic oil in a shoe press at the company Albany InternationalAB in Halmstad, Sweden.The project has been performed at Halmstad University as a degree project commissionedby Albany International AB. The purpose of the degree project was to find a way ofdetecting the hydraulic leak of a shoe press. The reason is that the shoe press runsunattended during nights and weekends, this can cause an extensive decontaminationwork and production stop if leak. The hydraulic oil could be leaking in large amounts orslowly as a fine mist. The development of a working system that can detect a hydraulicoil leak and stop the machine before a large amount of hydraulic oil leaks out wouldconsiderably reduce the cost of the decontamination work.

De etiska frÄgorna fÄr en alltmer central roll dÄ den uppmÀrksamhet som idag finns kring arbetsförhÄllanden har lett till att allt fler företag vill arbeta med deras sociala ansvar. CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) Àr ett begrepp som ofta översÀtts till företagens sociala ansvar. Konsumenterna stÀller Àven krav pÄ företagen vilket pÄverkar företagens kontroller och val av leverantörer och produkter. För att veta vart ett företag Àr pÄ vÀg, Àr en god förstÄelse för sitt företagsmÄl viktigt för att kunna uppnÄ det som förvÀntas av företaget. För att uppnÄ sina företagsmÄl anvÀnds ofta olika mÀtningar och nyckeltal.
