This Master thesis is made at the request of the local municipality of Uppsala in Sweden. The purpose of this work is to create a guiding management plan. Recreation, conservation of the cultivated landscape and the historical environment, conservation biology and the aim of the landowners are all considerd. The area is almost 34 hectares and located north of the centre of Uppsala. Landowners are the National Heritage Board, the diocese of Uppsala, the university of Uppsala, the local municipality of Uppsala and one private landowner.

Examensarbetet har utförts på Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery AB (Siemens) i Finspång. De utvecklar och tillverkar bland annat gasturbiner som kan drivas på både gasformigt- och flytande bränsle. Syftet för arbetet är att skapa förutsättningar för att öka förståelsen för spraybildning av flytande bränsle, till detta används och vidareutvecklas en spridarrigg på Siemens.Siemens äldsta gasturbin SGT-500 utvecklades och sattes i drift under 1950 talet. Vid denna tid var det en spridare med spillflöde och ett munstycke med roterande atomisering som visade bäst egenskaper. Höga tryck i munstycket genererar en spraykon med finfördelade droppar.

Bland tillväxtföretag i Sverige är företag som säljer högteknologiska produkter välrepresenterade. Styrning i dessa är en utmaning, speciellt av försäljningsfunktionen som utpekats som hjärtat i dessa företag. Simons hävstänger för strategisk styrning omfattar fyra perspektiv som denne menar bör uppmärksammas för att skapa balans i strategisk styrning och i sin tur nå lönsamhet och tillväxt. Dessa är det diagnostiserande perspektivet, det interaktiva perspektivet, värderingsperspektivet samt det gränsskapande perspektivet. Personlig försäljning är en kritisk komponent för högteknologiska tillväxtföretag.

New dwellings and commercial buildings in coastal regions has for some time now been a focal point. Old industrial harbours are regenerated into modern living areas with a recreational purpose. In Sweden the marina has not taken part in this development, thus remained in the monotony and large-scale structures of modernism. This graduation thesis looks upon the marina from a landscape architects point of view, where the marina foremost is a social venue. By revealing and discussing the development of the marina, its design and environmental consequence theories of the marinas future is presented. These theories are later tested upon the costal village of Rydebäck, south of Helsingborg. The thesis is structured in three parts: marina knowledge, proposal and resources. In the first part the historical development of the marina from prehistory time to now is discussed.

SummaryIn the area to the east of Hue city, in Vietnam, lays Tam Giang lagoon, one of Asia's largest lagoons, with an area of 22,000 hectares. This lagoon is suitable for aquaculture. One reason for this is because the salinity differs from sweet to salty in different parts of the lagoon. The Vietnamese Government advocates an increase in environmentally-friendly aquaculture and the fish Siganus guttatus (Rabbit fish) is a candidate for this. This fish eats mainly algae and can be cultivated in a polyculture.

My thesis is a combination of theory and practice, where theory is meant to create a context and a background for my interpretation proposal. I wanted to ?access? the ideas that are always in the background of the reasoning which underlies both planning in a larger scale, and the design of a place. I wanted to make a ?work of ideas.? In the process of shaping the proposal, I wanted to be deleted from the site itself.

Syfte: Vårt syfte är att, med två teoretiska ansatser som verktyg, analysera och illustrera servicemötet för att ge en fördjupad bild och en bättre förståelse för servicemötet som fenomen.Frågeställningar: - Vilka faktorer påverkar servicemötets kvalitetsaspekter för serveringspersonal och restauranggäst? - Hur kan ett dramaturgiskt perspektiv tänkas förtydliga bilden och underlätta förståelsen för restaurangens servicemöten? - Hur definieras ett positivt servicemöte och hur kan dessa uppfattningar tolkas? - På vilket sätt kan det statiska och individfokuserade perspektivet kompletteras med det dynamiska och processuella för att ge en tydligare bild och en djupare förståelse för servicemötet?Metod: Vi har använt oss av en abduktiv ansats där kvalitativa djupintervjuer ligger till grund för vårt resonemang i uppsatsen. Den kvalitativa undersökningsmetoden är bäst lämpad för vår undersökning då vårt syfte är att nå en djupare kunskap om servicemötet och vad som sker i interaktionen mellan servicegivaren och servicemottagaren.Slutsatser: Förväntningar på service och kvalitet förändras under servicemötets gång. Subjektiva uppfattningar och föreställningar ger servicemötet ett innehåll av spontanitet och individuella krafter. Vår studie visar att på liknande sätt som gästen tar med sig föreställningar och förväntningar tar även personalen med sig föreställningar och förväntningar till servicemötet.

The limit for mercury in fish, set by health authorities, is exceeded in about half of the lakes in Sweden. Methyl mercury (MeHg) is the most toxic form of mercury and accumulates in fish. Therefore transformation of inorganic mercury (Hg) to methylmercury (MeHg) is an important process that we need to understand in order to possibly counteract the negative effects of mercury in the environment. The seasonal dynamics of mercury biogeochemistry is likely of great importance for the accumulation of MeHg in the aquatic food web. In thesis the chemical speciation and transformations of Hg and MeHg in bottom waters and sediments is followed in Ängessjön, a small lake located on the east coast in the middle of Sweden. The lake is not directly affected by any industrial pollution and concentrations of Hg in the sediment reflect the atmospheric deposition in this area, as well as processes taking place along the hydrological pathways from soil to lake. Samples from sediment, bottom- and streamwater were collected in average every second month during the period Feb.

According to a decision of the European Commission, measures are to be taken to reduce the use of energy in the EU. The goal is to reduce it by 20 % compared to the current use. This shall be done to the year 2020 (European Commission, 2011). One industry that use large amounts of energy is the construction of buildings which account for almost a third of the energy use (Brogren, 2012). The major part of the energy that is used in the construction industry is not used when the buildings are built, but rather during the rest of their subsequent lifetime.

Fragmentation and reduction of forest area is a threat for many forest species and their habitat. Deficiencies in forest quality, such as lack of dead wood and old trees, are one explanation of the threat. The most important action to prevent the continued loss of forest types is to protect forest, but also to restore and to create areas that not previously had high nature values. Hence one of the key strategic roles for Fritid- och Naturkontoret, Uppsala municipality, is to monitor biodiversity in the context of urban planning. The majority of the Uppsala municipality residents live in urban areas and most of them spend some of their spare time in natural areas in cities and their immediate surroundings. Exploitation in and around Uppsala is high, but it is important that there is enough nature close to houses to meet the residents? needs of recreation.

IRB 340, Flexpicker is an industrial robot used for sorting, packaging and the handling of details up to two kg. The Flexpicker is a delta robot, meaning that it with three arms controls a triangular plate, swivel, in a work area shaped like a cylinder. Joints using plain bearings connect the arms.The plain bearing in use today consists of a plastic ring which slides against a hard anodized joint ball. Despite the fact that the plastic contain friction-lowering additives, the bearing needs to be lubricated to prevent noise. Because the robot is used in food and drug handling environments, where the demands on hygiene are set very high, the robot is often washed.

During half a century the society has been changed from an industrial to knowledge-driven society. Industry companies have standardized requirements and companies that works with development in production has unique qualifications. The public employment office was created during a time that each tailored to then general requirements were dominating and the adaptation average appropriate worker and appropriate work where general. When the monopoly was stopped, crew companies begun to settle down on the market that flexibly adapt themselves to carried out now specialized needs that require sophisticated adaptation average work and job seekers. Companies lose the confidence for the public employment office and politicians threaten the organization with big closure.
