Under sommaren 2014 kommer Norrköping locka många turister till staden genom ett flertal stora evenemang, till exempel Bråvallafestivalen och Harry Potter: The Exhibition. Som besökare från en annan stad kan det vara svårt att hitta lämpliga parkeringsplatser i sådana situationer. I nuläget har Norrköpings kommun en karta över parkeringsplatser på deras hemsida. Denna är endast anpassad till webbläsare och ger en översiktlig bild över var parkeringar finns utplacerade i de mest centrala delarna av staden. Att söka upp kartan på en mobil enhet, lokalisera sig på kartan, välja lämplig parkering och sedan hitta till denna kan vara svårt och tidskrävande för den som har bråttom eller inte hittar i staden.Syftet med detta examensarbete är att ta fram ett användarvänligt gränssnitt för en mobil applikation som ska underlätta parkeringsprocessen för förare som bor i eller besöker Norrköping.

Den här rapporten utgör dokumentationen av ett examensarbete som genomfördes inom Kandidatpåbyggnadslinjen vid Jönköpings tekniska högskola. Inom det jubileumsår som Nässjö stad firar i samband med stadens 100-årsdag var det Nässjö Järnvägsmuseums mål att ta fram en temporär kulturutställning i en tågvagn, vilken ska stå vid Nässjö tågstation under jubileumsårets gång. Genom projektledare hos Nässjö kommun kom museet i kontakt med en designstudent från Jönköpings tekniska högskola, vilken erhöll uppgiften att utveckla den temporära kulturutställningen.Syftet med projektet var att undersöka hur en temporär kulturutställning kan se ut för att locka till sig besökare och intresse från önskade målgrupper. För att konkretisera syftet konkritiserades de till en frågeställning som handlade om hur temporära kulturutställningar och deras grafiska kommunikation kan te sig för att locka till sig önskade målgrupper. Därtill togs fyra konkreta målsättningar fram, vilka specificerade att projektet ska leda till designen av en utställning, tillhörande grafisk kommunikation, skyltning för Nässjö järnvägsmuseum samt ett kompendie där den grafiska kommunikationen visades upp.För att exemplifiera hur en temporär kulturutställning kan te sig och infria målsättningarna inleddes arbetet med undersökningar observationer och intervjuer vid olika kulturutställningar.

The electrical grid needs to be changed in the future in order to manage more distributed and renewable generation and also to make it possible for electricity consumers to be more active and aware of their electricity consumption. This future grid is usually referred to as a smart grid. With the transition to a smart grid, new challenges occur. One method to determine those challenges is to perform risk and vulnerability analyses. InStockholm, the new urban district Stockholm Royal Seaport is built.

During the spring of 2013 we developed a visual identity for Jönköping Bandy, a bandy association in Jönköping, which was founded in 1947.Jönköping Bandy?s main problem was the low interest for the association by the local people. The association also had problems with the economy, which made it hard for them to merchandise themselves.In Jönköping, there were a lot of sport associations, and therefore, it was difficult to find sponsors. One way to help the association, was to create a good visual identity for them. A visual identity that would reflect on the proper values of the association.The intention was: ?Through graphical design, we want to convey Jönköping Bandy to a larger amount of people, and get increased knowledge in graphical idiom.? and was torn apart into these three questions:What core values does Jönköping Bandy have, and how can we convey them through the visual identity?Which visual materials does Jönköping Bandy need?How do other teams in Allsvenskan Södra merchandise themselves through their websites?The work began with a study of relevant theoretical literature, with focus on graphical design.

Background: The board of directors is a key player in corporate governance. Their role is to ensure that the corporations are run with the interest of the shareholders as the main focus. In the beginning of the 21st century, a survey was made about the confidence of the Swedish business community and in which criticism was directed to the board of directors. The boards were deemed inadequate in their function and were often solely composed by members with similar experiences and competence, therefore lacking in diversity. In order to improve the competence and work of the board of directors, the Swedish code of corporate governance was introduced and its recommendations comprehend the boards? size and composition.

Syfte och frågeställningarArbetet belyser området runt marknadsrättigheter för Svensk ishockey och Svensk fotboll. Utvecklingen har medfört att rättigheternas värdet ökat enormt de senaste 15 åren vilket bidragit till att rättigheter idag är en stor business. Den svenska rättighetsmarknaden liknar den europeiska som under de senast åren brottats med ett flertal problem som lägre intäkter för rättigheterna, konkurrens mellan TV-bolag som köpt rättigheter men inte har råd att betala m.m. Finns det likheter mellan det europeiska och den svenska rättighetsmarknaden som inte än har visat några tendenser på att minska intäktsmässigt, finns det möjlighet att förutse hur den svenska rättighetsmarknaden kommer att se ut i framtiden och vilka är faktorerna som påverkar de svenska rättighetsavtalen?MetodJag har valt att göra arbetet utifrån de aktörer som idag är aktiva på marknaden vid rättighetsförhandlingar och avtal.

Organic cotton has been in the medias field of vision for quite some time. This interestalso reflects in a growing awareness in the textile industry where more and morecompanies today offer organic cotton in their product range. With this in mind wequestion whether organic cotton has become a viable commercial product. We alsoacknowledge there is a lacking of understanding the complex problems that organiccotton manufacture involves, for example the huge effort and cost required for a transitionfrom conventional to organic cotton farming.The purpose of this paper was to study how textile, ecology and competition today arebeing combined by companies. We wanted with our investigation to find out whethercompanies in the textile industry use ecology as a competitive advantage.

Due to higher standards of living around the world, greater industries and larger infrastructures causes an increase of the global energy consumption. This harvest of energy puts a great stress on the global environment. With this development, it becomes increasingly important to utilize energy resources in the best possible way.Fans are components that are often used in the industry and in households. A common problem is that the fan is oversized. An oversized fan causes an excessive flow, which has to be adjusted in order to achieve the correct flow.

A protection helmet for young people (3-7 years) in winter environment has been developed in this thesis. The result is a concept proposal for development at STIGA Sports AB in Eskilstuna.

The helmet is shown as a CAD model with detailed solutions to the outer shell, interior and adjustability (in sizes 50-56 cm) which are the three focused areas in the development. Also a physical model in scale 1:1 has been developed and is shown in this thesis work.To achieve the best result possible the process started with an analysis of the market and the product.

It is important to ensure and develop the Swedish model for riding schools, since the pupils at a Swedish riding school learn both to ride and to handle horses. There is a pronounced problem of stagnation and in some cases a reduced demand in several of the equine industry sectors including breeding with decreased coverings. The aim of this study was to cast light on how representatives from the horse industry looks at riding schools and their recruitment of horses in the next five years. The research issue was ?Will there be difficulties regarding horse recruitment in 2020 and in that case, what are the consequences?? The results of this work consist mostly of material from a workshop on how the riding school will be affected by reduced breeding in the future.
