This study deals with a research on what the opening sounds in movies tell us about the story that we are about to follow. The purpose is to examine if and how the sound in the first five minutes of the movie contribute in giving information about the film?s genre. The theoretical base includes both genre theory and Michel Chion?s theory on film sound.

A study was carried in conjunction with the Orthodontic department at Halmstad General Hospital in Sweden to investigate the possibility of reducing cost and manufacture time of dental implant drill guides. The current system involves sending a digital image in STL format to the Materialise factory in Belgium where information of the position of dental implants is translated onto a moulded mouthpiece. Drill guides are placed in the mouth piece which is then returned to the surgeon. The mouthpiece complete with drill guides is then placed in the patients mouth and used as a guide for the implant drill holes. The cost of 10000 sek and a turnaround time of 2 weeks gave rise to the need for a faster and cheaper solution.

Inledning: Att som sjuksköterska arbeta med patienter som vårdas mot sin vilja kräver stor inlevelseförmåga. Mötet med denna patientgrupp gör att sjuksköterskorna utsätts för tvivel och osäkerhet huruvida den vård som erbjuds är till gagn för patienten.  Syfte: Studiens syfte var att beskriva patienters upplevelse av sluten psykiatrisk tvångsvård. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie har genomförts. Åtta vetenskapliga artiklar publicerade från år 2000 och framåt inkluderades.

The aim of my study is to investigate how last year students in upper secondary schoolunderstand certain mathematical concepts, in particular the unit circle and its trigonometry.I have used intentional analysis to interpret student?s actions when they solve certain tasks onthe basis of a cognitive, situated and cultural context.Interviews with four university teachers in mathematics about the unit circle, trigonometry,and mathematical understanding, serve both as background for the study and as basis for adiscussion, where I relate students understanding to what the teachers want new students toknow about these concepts when they begin university studies in mathematics.The students were arranged in three groups with three students in each group. Each group waspresented with two tasks, one in which they were asked to calculate the cosine values for onepointed, one blunt and one straight angle, each located in a separate triangle. They were alsoasked to decide whether the points (0,71; 0,71) and d (1 2 , 3 2 ) are located on the unit circleor not.My conclusion is that students mainly have an operational conception of the unit circle andtrigonometry. The lack of structural conceptions result in difficulties in seeing connectionsbetween the concepts in unfamiliar situations.

Kap.1 är inledning,syfte,metod etc.Kap.2 i den här uppsatsen behandlar syrisk-ortodoxa kyrkans grundande i Antiokia år 37 där Apostlarna för första gången kallade sig för Kristna /Apg.11:19-20)uppsatsen behandlar också det språk (Arameiska/ syriska)som används inom alla syrisk-ortodoxa kyrkorna runtom i världen,den tar upp kyrkans teologi och dogmer kortfattad,kyrkomötena i Nicea år 325,Konstantinopel 381,och Efesos 431 där beslutades om grunderna för den kristna teologin och tron, och det fjärde iCalcedonår 451 som delade den kristna kyrkan till två,väst som accepterade två naturer för Kristus,(gudomlig och mänsklig) och de orientaliska kyrkorna som accepterade två förenade naturer i en enhet, för Kristus.Kap.3 handlar om Syrisk-ortodoxa kyrkans institutioner och stiftelser i medlemmarnas ursprungsländer och i emigrationsländer,bl.a Sverige.Kap.4 handlar kort om medlemmarnas civila och organisationer..

Interaction is an important part of children?s development. The school is a main arena in which children learn to interact, mainly through their playing. This study aims at investigating the role of interaction in a leisure school didactic setting. The aim of the study is to gain a better understanding for how the pupils develop though use of social interaction.

Syftet med föreliggande uppsats är att utifrån ett socialpsykologiskt perspektiv undersöka och öka förståelsen för hur mellanmänskliga relationer inverkat och inverkar på den psykiska hälsan hos personer som under denna studies inledning var sjukskrivna för någon form av psykisk ohälsa. Samtliga informanter ingår i ett aktuellt treårigt projekt, vars syfte är att öka individens välbefinnande och som när denna studie inleddes pågått under cirka ett halvår. Studien har en kvalitativ ansats och baseras på sex semistrukturerade intervjuer som har karaktären av narrativa livsberättelser. Resultatet visar att tillit och acceptans i relationen till medmänniskor i det dagliga livet är en mycket viktig faktor för informanterna gällande att deras återhämtning ska uppnå goda resultat. Resultatet visar också att det inte har varit de tidigare relationerna i sig som orsakat informanternas psykiska ohälsa utan snarare de destruktiva emotioner som tidigare relationer genererat.  .

The purpose of this essay is to analytically review and discuss architecturalcompetitions, mainly through the general views of a few selected workinglandscape architects, architects and scientists. I have studied the moral and workethicalaspects of using graphical presentations as a mean to draw attention,rather than trying to meet the set program points.My results are derived from e-mail interviews, literature studies and studies ofthe competition entry Stockholmssfären from the competition Stockholmsportenwhich was held in Sweden early 2011.The literature studies have shown that the available literature on architecturalcompetitions and research on the subject is biased towards architecture ratherthan landscape architecture. Worth mentioning is also that there is not a lot ofavailable literature, mainly due to lacking research on the subject.The informants for the interviews were selected based upon their academicmerits and/or experience of working with or doing scientific research onarchitectural competitions. The landscape architects? opinions regardingarchitectural competitions turned out to be in many ways alike ? they seemed tohave a pretty relaxed view of competing in architecture.

Increasing attention is being given to acid sulphate soils wherever they occur. The problems that leaching sulphate soils gives with significant lowerings of pH and mobilization of heavy metals influence large spectra of our society from fisheries to agriculture to construction. Mapping these soils is consequently of great importance and the methods of doing this is very much lacking in function and precision. This study was therefore carried out to investigate whether conductivity in running water can be used as a simple instrument to identify acid sulphate soils in the catchment. 31 coastal streams in the county of Västerbotten were analyzed for different catchment properties such as occurence of marine sediments and basic water chemistry including conductivity and sulphate.

ABSTRAKTDet här är en sammanfattning av den formella delen av vårt projektarbete. Under hösten 2007 och våren 2008 har vi på uppdrag av Egon Nilsson överhalat en hjälpmaskin ombord på Calmare Nyckel. Maskinen var i stort behov av en renovering, det läckte både kylvatten och smörjolja på olika ställen. Det har varit mycket väntetid på reservdelar eftersom maskinen är ovanlig och tillverkas i England. Mot slutet av arbetet råkade vi på bekymmer med vattenläckage i smörjoljan som gjorde att jobbet blev försenat några veckor.

InledningEtt ökat intresse för globalisering har gjort att företag söker sig till nya marknader kontinuerligt, svenska företag utgör inget undantag. En mycket aktuell marknad för utlandsetablering är Dubai. Från att ha varit ett litet fisk- och pärlsamhälle är det idag ett globalt center för affärer som attraherar aktörer från hela världen.SyfteSyftet med studien är att undersöka varför samt hur svenska företag väljer att etablera sig i Dubai.MetodStudien bygger på en kvalitativ metod som valts med hänsyn till den undersökning som genomförts. Genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med fem respondenter har information samlats in och bearbetats för att i slutändan uppfylla studiens syfte.ResultatResultatet från studien visar att Dubai med sitt centrala läge i Mellanöstern är mycket intressant för svenska företag att göra affärer på. En viktig faktor är dess frizoner vilka möjliggör fullt ägande och enkelhet i etableringsprocessen..

The U.S. came close to hit their debt ceiling and had some severe trouble getting a federal budget in order in the fall 2013, which raised a global news echo around the world. The purpose of this study is to look at of how the Swedish newspapers framed this specific event; we wanted to find the dominated similarities and differences in the different articles as well as see if our domestic perspective appeared in the frames. In order to come to a conclusion we first read all the material published between the dates of the 2th to the 17th of October in our chosen newspapers, we then did a mapping schedule and sorted through the articles, two of our main sorting points were ?the dominating framing? and ?the dominating operator? in each and every article.
