This final-year project has been performed at Strix production Efterlyst. The task has been to make a page under their homepage, with a game application that?s supposed to be interesting and also have a strong connection to the TV- program. In the first part of the report, the reader will learn about the preparing work that was done before the work with the final game began. It is in these two test versions all the technical problems were tested, to finally be used or thrown away.

Dagens jord- och skogsägare står inför ett kommande ägarskifte då cirka en fjärdedel av Sveriges jord- och skogsägare är över 60 år gamla. Marknadspriserna och insatsvarorna har ökat kraftigt den senaste perioden. Allt fler banker har valt att finansiera lån till jord- och skogsbruksägare då säkerheten är stabil och lönsamheten god. En generellt försämrad lönsamhet inom jord- och skogsbruket har lett till att bankerna kommer ställa hårdare krav när belåning sker. Dagens generation skiljer sig ifrån den äldre då de är lyhörda och har möjlighet att byta bank över en natt.

The aim of this report is to give a concise description of curtain walls, what it is and why they are used. It is also a description of six different but commonly used design technologies. By giving a detailed description of the different types and there special properties, the pros and cons will be clarified. The three most interesting alternatives were selected to be included in a test, to show the best alternative from a certain point of view.The parameters are:? Environment? Cost? Ergonomics? Isolation against noise and fire? DurabilityThese are important parameters in the planning and design phase.

Inom kort kommer mycket stora arealer skogsmark att byta ägare. En äldre generation kommer lämna över till en yngre som i högre utsträckning har jobb utanför skogssektorn och som bor längre ifrån fastigheten. För att Mellanskog ska vara en attraktiv skoglig partner även för den nya generationen och erbjuda vad de behöver är det viktigt att veta vilka förväntningar och krav de har på skogen och skogsägarföreningen. Denna undersökning vände sig till dagens äldre medlemmar (> 70 år) i Mellanskog men framförallt till deras barn. Målet var att besvara följande frågeställningar: ? Finns det skillnader i föräldrarnas respektive barnens avsikter att behålla skogen inom familjen? ? Vilka eventuella problem ser barnen med skogsägande och vilka hinder ligger i vägen för att de ska ta över skogen? ? Vilka produkter och/eller tjänster kommer bli viktigast för framtidens skogsägare? Drygt 700 medlemmar kontaktades och 262 lämnade ut sina barns fullständiga kontaktuppgifter.

This essay is about two Swedish folk musicians, Anders Rosén and Leif Stinnerbom, who have been playing two important rolls in the developing process of Swedish folk music, on their separate ways. The main part of this work is focused on the era called ?The Folk Music Vogue?, which was the era when my informants were in the limelight on the Swedish fiddler scene of the 70s.Our music culture is constantly lying under the change of progress and I find it interesting to reflect how these kinds of changes are affecting the role of the musician.In this essay I am reflecting on the different perspectives of the musicianship according to my informants and how they both are referring to their role as musicians. The purpose is further on to see how they have been relating to the change of progress on the field of the Swedish folk music during the 70s and up to this date. Throughout interviews with the informants I am analyzing their personal relationship to their life as folk musicians.

This thesis is about developing a design that provides improved vacuum seal between a lead coating and a plastic coating during plastic extrusion processes of cables. This report is a part of the course MSGC 17 for Bachelor Engineers in mechanical engineering.The work is performed at Nexans Norway AS in Halden where they have a production of high voltage cables for sea-, and offshore industry. A problem they face is that they do not get enough good seal at the attachment to the plastic extrusion machine. They want to achieve a vacuum between a lead coating on the cable and a plastic coating of the cable for plastic extrusion, which is something they do not achieve today. The thesis is thus to come up with a design that provides better sealing against the cable.The work involves a construction part with the phases of product development processes.

A study based on the consumer buying decision process to discover the typical use of the Internet in the consumer buying decision process when buying clothes. The matter is researched through an Internet survey which discovers how the consumer use the Internet in each step of the buying decision process by using predetermined options. As a result, the conclusion is that people most commonly use the traditional alternatives in the buying decision process of clothes. However, information about a product is often collected on the Internet, mostly on different webshops. The main reason, for people to buy clothes on the Internet, is that the consumers consider it is more convenient and time saving.

ABSTRACT Title (English): New technologies, same needs? A qualitative research of media usage in two generations, in the light of modern uses and gratifications research Title (original): Ny teknik, samma behov? En kvalitativ undersökning av två generationers mediebruk i ljuset av den moderna bruks- och belöningsforskningen Language: Swedish  Author: Frida Ivansson Tutor: Sven Ross Course: Media and Communication Studies, Bachelor's Thesis.  Period: Spring term 2013 University: Department of Journalism, Media and Communication (JMK) atStockholm University Purpose/Aim: The purpose of this paper is to, in the light of todays uses and gratification research, highlight the differences in media use in adolescents and adults. I focus on the informants' television viewing and I compare this cross-generational, and in relation to other media use. Material/Method: The method I used in this thesis is qualitative interviews. My choice fell on this method because I believe it to be the most suitable for obtaining the data needed.

After emergencies involving chemical spills it is of great importance that correct measures are taken with short notice, both for the security of people and in order to minimize future environmental consequences. The RIB-unit at the Swedish Rescue Services Agency initiated this study, the aim of which is to propose changes to the existing chemical transport calculation tool: Chemical Spill 3.4, included in RIB - Integrated Decision Support for Civil Protection, so that it can be used for decision support as well as in preventive work. A rough estimation of chemical transport in the subsurface is considered being of great importance when making decisions during emergency response operations.The proposition presented in this report is a non site specific chemical transport model which is designed to give a rough estimation of NAPL flow in homogenous isotropic soil shortly after an instantaneous release. The model can be used at two levels; both in situations without access to information on subsurface properties, and with more accuracy in situations with knowledge of the included parameters. For that reason the user can choose among predefined alternatives or assign the parameters a numeric value to increase the quality of the model output.

På senare år har man i dags- och fackpress kunnat läsa om att den yngre generationen som äntrar arbetsmarknaden är ovilliga att ta chefsjobb. Man har kunnat läsa om att de som faktiskt gör det har sämre hälsa, är mer stressade och saknar befogenheter i högre grad än äldre chefer. Unga chefers ledarskap skiljer sig från traditionellt ledarskap och unga ställer andra krav på sin arbetssituation och på chefsrollen. Unga människor födda mellan slutet av 70- och 90-talet har helt andra värderingar än äldre som värdesatte hårt arbete, sparande och trygghet i livet.Generation Y, som den unga generationen har kommit att kallas, uppskattar fritid och frihet allt högre. De har kallats lata, bortskämda och krävande men också välutbildade, ambitiösa och socialt ansvarstagande.

Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att via kvalitativa intervjuer komma fram till vad det är som driver personer som jobbar inom traditionella hantverksyrken till att gå till jobbet.Det empiriska material som ligger till grund för denna undersökning bygger på 6kvalitativa halvstrukturerade intervjuer av hantverkare och 2 kvalitativa intervjuer medtjänstemän som tidigare i sitt yrkesverksamma liv har arbetat med samma yrken som deövriga 6 intervjupersonerna..

This report covers the conceptual design of a new one person hybrid vehicle that is to be fast and convenient to drive on the roads. The vehicle is most of all supposed to be used as a commute vehicle but can also be used at other occasions as well.During the work with this project the group has focused on three larger areas, the outer design (body), wheel chassis and an ergonomically designed interior. The group was not able to just create these parts in 3D to get a trustworthy vehicle, hence number of other components and details were also created to get a better entirety.The outer design starts with idea generation and sketches and ends with a 3D model which is rendered to show how the final product is going to look. The design of the body has been going on during the entire work process due to new ideas and improvements that seemed interesting and had to be changed.The wheel chassis also started with idea generation, research and sketches. It ended up with a simulated 3D model which later on was mounted on the vehicle body to show how the vehicle is going to perform during usage.

The RoHS Directive was introduced in order to restrict hazardous substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment, EEE. It currently restricts the use of six hazardous substances/compounds; cadmium, lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE. The RoHS Directive currently includes category 1-7 and 10 in the categories of EEE listed in Annex 1A to the WEEE-Directive (Waste of EEE). The aim with the report is to investigate and elucidate prospects and obstacles to increase the scope of RoHS. This report mainly considers the inclusion of product categories 8 (Medical Devices) and 9 (Monitoring and Control Instruments).

Nynas produces bitumen at two refineries in Sweden. The bitumen is shipped to seven depots along the swedish coast line, and from the depots special trucks handle the transportation to customers. Recently Nynas has transformed its supply chain and closed down a few depots. At the moment the company is considering a further reduction of the number of depots. In connection to these discussions an analyse of the companys distributionsystem and of possible changes is required.

Many grocery stores have products marked whit there private brands. The information about these brands is poor. We wanted to find out what the stores own brands stand for and what the manager of purchase thinks it stands for. We choose to concentrate on meat and cured meat and limit our study to ICA, Axfood and Coop because they are the three main actors in the Swedish branch of grocery. The supplier has traditionally manufactured products and made there own brands. These products have been distributed and sold to the consumer thru stores.
