In this project an iPhone application for storing food and drink experiences was developed with focus on an easy interaction design. The already existing market of similar applications were studied and evaluated to extract their positive and negative features. Interviews with experts within the food and drink business where made in the pre study to get a good perception of how to divide and categorize the sections in the application. To optimize the usability, workshops with potential users with different technical experiences where continuously held during the development of the design.During the development two variants of development environments where evaluated. The final result of the application was developed in the environment that made the best impression and seemed to be the best alternative.The resulting product has a thought out design meant to be easy to understand, even for the first time users.

Under vår utbildningstid på LTH har vi fått obligatorisk undervisning i AutoCAD medan undervisning i ArchiCAD varit valbar. Ett problem för de studenter som velat förkovra sig i ArchiCAD har varit att det på LTH inte funnits litteratur till ArchiCAD. Det har gjort att de studenter som velat komma igång på egen hand med ArchiCAD fått svårigheter med detta. Handbokens syfte är att hjälpa andra personer, främst studenter, med att komma igång med ArchiCAD på egen hand. De avgränsningar vi valde att göra är att endast visa de funktioner som krävs för att modellera ett hus.

Tolerance and resistance are two different defence mechanisms within the immune system that differ from each other in many ways: However it is not clear which of the two is the most advantageous in dairy production. Resistance is described as the ability to fight a pathogen in a host. Tolerance is, on the other hand, not aggressive to the pathogen per se, but rather protects the host and its tissues. Furthermore tolerance rather offsets the toxin from, for example, a parasite whilst resistance offsets the parasite itself. Resistance is however disease specific, which means breeding for a large number of diseases is needed in order to make resistance worth the cost for the host.

This master thesis is an analysis of how the amount of health centers per inhabitant has changed since the Swedish government implemented a new health care reform in 2010. The reform implies a free choice of health centers in the Swedish regions and opens up the market for private firms. The purpose of the thesis is to study the effects of the different financing systems toward the health centers in the regions. The models are based on theories of the need of health care. Two of the independent variables which are studied are income and age.

Larsson, Nadine, Nordgren, Sara (2013), Hur pedagoger arbetar och resonerar kring pedagogisk dokumentation på en förskola. Lärarutbildningen: Malmö Högskola. Pedagogisk dokumentation är en naturlig del som är integrerad i det dagliga pedagogiska arbetet. Pedagogisk dokumentation ska inte vara något som ligger vid sidan av utan förutsätter ett arbete med reflektion, samarbete och kommunikation. Pedagogisk dokumentation går hand i hand med ett utforskande specifikt arbetssätt, det utforskande arbetssättet. Vårt syfte med denna studie är att undersöka hur pedagoger på en förskola arbetar med och resonerar kring pedagogisk dokumentation.

This degree project was conducted in collaboration with Gremo AB located in Ätran.The aim of the project was to develop a solution to secure quality and to help assemblingthe locknut holding the vertical hinge on the harvesters and foresters from Gremo.At this time the nut is assembled manually by the aid of an overhead crane. The nut istightened differently from time to time, and there was no specified torque to which it istightened. Another present problem was the locking washer which sometimes getsdamaged during assembly, when this happens the procedure has to be started over fromthe beginning. The current assembly procedure is very time consuming and lengthy forthe employees.Our task was to design a machine that could tighten the nut to a specified torque with amargin of error of ± 3%. The assembly procedure will be held simple and the timerequired at a minimum.The project started by developing several principle solutions, the one solution that bestmatched our specifications were developed to a primary solution.Today we have started manufacturing and assembling our prototype.

Unaccompanied minors who are fleeing and being sent way from their countries of origin are nothing new. In 2011, 12 225 unaccompanied minors where registered in The European Union, none undocumented minors included. Most of the minors are coming from Afghanistan and Somalia. The aim of this essay is to investigate how The European Union?s migration policies are applied in reality and how United Nation?s Convention on the Right of Children are put in practice by the member states of The European Union and Norway.

The aim of this essay is to see how the IOGT, local politicians and the local newspaper acted in the city of Hedemora in Sweden in connection with the referendum held in 1922 whether or not to ban the use of alcoholic beverages. To accomplish this I have examined protocols from local IOGT-groups, the town council and the local newspaper Södra Dalarnes tidning. I find that the local IOGT not only worked with the issue of alcohol but served as an institution that deepened democracy and education in the local community through discussions, study circles and applying pressure on local politicians. The locally elected bodies in turn were generally in favour of the good work the IOGT did, although not always overwhelmingly so. Many of the local politicians that handled the issues of alcohol were themselves active members in organisations promoting absolutism.

Vårt examensarbete belyser hur betydelsefull leken är för barnet i förskolan och att det krävs utrymme för att den ska utvecklas och skapa mening. Våra huvudfrågor är följande: Hur tänker förskolepedagogen angående vilket utrymme leken ska få i förskolan?På vilket sätt kan förskolepedagogen inspirera till lek?För att nå ett resultat använde vi oss utav kvalitativa intervjuer, där vi skribenter intervjuade sju stycken förskolepedagoger på olika förskolor i en kommun i Blekinge. De teman som framkom i resultatet var: Lek och lärande går hand i hand, Utrymmet påverkar leken, Miljön en inspirationskälla och Inspirera utan att ta över. I resultatet av den kvalitativa undersökningen synliggjordes det att det krävs en aktiv pedagog för barnets lek och att miljön ska vara inspirerande och locka till lek.

This thesis aimed to describe how the ideological dividing line concerning the welfare state has changed between the two largest governmental parties in Sweden, the Social Democrats and the Moderaterna, during 1990 to 2010. The scientist Mark Blyth points out that ideas are important instruments for structural and institutional change by identifying ideas as weapons, blueprints and cognitive locks, which were being used in the theoretical framework. The empirical data was made by a qualitative analysis of the parliamentary speeches and debates from both parties held every year. The results shows that the budgetary law passed in 1997 became a new institutional blueprint, which changed the political conditions for the Social Democrats. Furthermore, the results point to a change in the Moderaterna?s rhetoric concerning the welfare state to a more pragmatic view. .

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att ta reda på mer om mäns tankar kring att det i Sverige idag är fler och fler kvinnor som väljer att skaffa barn på egen hand via insemination. För att undersöka detta har jag använt mig av fyra frågeställningar:Hur ser män på familjebildande och föräldraskap? Upplever män idag att det finns en risk för dem att bli exkluderade från familjebildande och faderskap? Upplever män att de inte har samma rätt till valmöjlighet som kvinnor har? Varför tror män att kvinnor gör detta val och att det blir allt vanligare?För att ta reda på detta har jag använt mig av enskilda intervjuer. Jag har intervjuat fem män utan barn i åldrarna 25-35 år. Intervjuerna har sedan analyserats kvalitativt men med en hermeneutisk ansats, där jag redovisar resultat och analyser direkt under respektive frågeställning.

The purpose of this essay is to analyze the view on sexuality held by Sweden?s first woman doctor Karolina Widerström, by using ideologycritical textanalysis on the written scriptures of dr. Widerström that focus on sexualpolitics. In doing this I use the theory of speech by Foucault. In this study I focus on Widerström?s scriptures, what she wrote about, how she wrote about it but also what she couldn't write due to the historical context and how omission can still speak of power.

A qualitative document analysis is used to answer the aim of this thesis that is to find out if the relation between the European Union and Belarus has changed from confrontational to reparational in between the two parliamentary elections that was held in the country in the years of 2004 and 2008. The study focuses on debates from the European parliament in association to the elections in Belarus to see if the rhetoric used in the debates have changed. It is found that the rhetoric used in the European parliament after the 2004 election in Belarus are extremely confrontational and the members of the debate expresses their thoughts of Belarus in a rather harsh way. It has also been found that the rhetoric used in the European parliament after the 2008 election in Belarus are more diplomatic and have the tendencies of a warmer relation to Belarus although there are still some confrontational views among the members..

The purpose of this Masters thesis is to compare the scheme structure of two national classifications system, namely the Swedish SAB system and the German ASB. It has been assumed that there are no major differences between the two models of classification systems or the main classes into which documents are placed. The classification theory and subject analysis, which form the basic theory on which my research is based, are taken from Dahlberg, Langridge and Rowley. A comparison of 30 monographs classified in the SAB system Sveriges allmänna biblioteksförening and in the German ASB system Allgemeine Systematik für öffentliche Bibliotheken showed that the classification structure was primarily responsible for determining where a particular document was placed. However, despite the fact that the subject in various documents may be similar, my research will demonstrate that the structure of the two codes also depends on different interpretations of the main subject in a document.

Denna uppsats har sin utgångspunkt i Eli Heckschers beskrivning av stationssamhällens utveckling i och med järnvägen tillkomst under 1800-talets senare del. Fallstudien av stationssamhället Ljusdal under 1870-1890, tio år före stationens öppnande och tio år efter, beskriver befolkningsökningen och handeln och industrins utveckling under perioden. Resultatet visar att befolkningen ökade redan innan stationens öppnande, troligen till följd av förväntningar på järnvägen, men att den allra största ökningen sker under 1880-talets senare del, i samband med att stationen blir en knutpunkt. Hand i hand med befolkningsökningen går tillkomsten av handlanden och hantverkare. Utbudet blir bredare med tiden, och störst variation kan ses mot slutet av 20-årsperioden.
