Upplevelser av rovdjursturism : en studie av resereportage
This essay contains a discoursive analysis of fifteen travel reports from five of the largest papers in Sweden. The travel reports contains recaptions from wildlife tourism experiences were the predators are the main target, or at least one of the main targets. Seven of the reports are from Sweden and eight of them from Russia, Rumania, Finland, Turkey and the United States. Predators in this essay aims to those in Sweden called ?the big five?, these are: bears, wolves, lynxes , wolverines and golden eagles.
Verktyg för mätning av tjänstekvalitet på bredbandsnät
Operators and Internet service providers invest in broadband to be able to deliver new services that require higher data transmission rate. A way to make this possible is to use ADSL, Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, as the access technology. To be able to handle this technology, the service providers should do a pre-qualification. Methods and tools are needed to analyze the local copper lines and decide if these qualify for ADSL with respect to service availability and possible bandwidth through the lines. This report brings up some methods for pre-qualification of ADSL, the important quality parameters and how to gather them from the available services today.
Ingen skola är en ö : en studie av förutsättningarna för projekt med närproducerad skolmat på Sollerö skola
Sedan nästan tjugo år arbetar pedagoger och kökspersonal på Sollerö skola med projekt som syftar till att öka miljömedvetenhet hos eleverna och servera dem närproducerad och näringsrik skolmat. Detta arbete består bland annat av odlingar där skolpersonal, elever och föräldrar tillsammans odlar potatis, lök, morötter och rotsaker till skolmåltiderna. Många av de engagerade i verksamheten uttrycker dock att de upplever motstånd från skolledning och kommuntjänstemän, vilket leder till frustration och osäkerhet kring verksamhetens framtida överlevnad. I denna uppsats undersöker jag hur de engagerade i verksamheten påverkas av Mora kommuns policy för verksamheten, hur viktigt skolledningens stöd är för verksamhetens fortlevnad, samt vilka strategier de engagerade använder sig av för att påverka sina förutsättningar. För att försöka förstå detta har jag vid två tillfällen besökt Sollerön och de platser som är aktuella för verksamheten, intervjuat sju personer som är eller har varit aktiva i Sollerö skolodlingar samt deltagit i ett verksam-hetsmöte.
Transportör : Lokal logistik
This report is the result of a project work carried out at Karlstad University in conjunctionwith the local consulting firm Camatec where most of the work has been performed.The work can be classified as a classic engineering work with supportive theories andcalculations which in this context is relevant.The engineering project has focused on developing new standards for a conveyor that is usedin the Värmland paper industry where large rolls of paper are produced. A conveyor can takeits appearance in many different forms but in this thesis it has been an exemplary look and ithas also become modulatable with a central section, a drive end and a turning end.The construction work has been build under CAD programs such as Pro Engineer, drawingshave been created and costings have been analyzed. Strength calculations have been made andcooperation from several different companies have erected to explore different solutions andideas for a modern and sustainable conveyor..
Att gräva där man står och flytta staden : ett experimentellt uttryck av Kirunas kulturarv
Kiruna genomgår en stadsomvandling eftersom grunden som dagens stadskärna
vilar på kommer att bli mer instabil i takt med att LKABs malmbrytning
kommer närmare staden. I det här arbetet visas tre koncept vilka skulle kunna
inspirera till nya platser i den kommande stadskärnan. Koncepten är skapade
efter inspiration som är kopplat till stadens kulturarv. Att använda sig av
kulturarvet som inspiration i skapandet av nya platser är en av frågorna som
diskuteras i arbetet. Jag kan konstatera att det har en behållning genom att det
leder till att platsspecifi k design.
Upplevelser på Visitor Centers: En konceptutveckling av utställningen på Visitor Centre i världsarvet Gammelstads kyrkstad
Visitor Centers were first established at various national parks in North America. Most Visitor Centers were built in the ten-year period following 1952. The purpose of the Visitor Centers was to welcome visitors and enhance their experience of the national parks. Today there are Visitor Centers all around the world, connected to different places or attractions. Many of the Visitor Centers that exist today, especially those in the national parks in North America, were built during the information society.
En Curmansk saga Bevarandeproblematik hos takhängda tapetvåder i nygöticistisk interiör
The main purpose of this thesis has been to address the problem connected with conservation ofspecific objects in historic buildings that have a protected building status. The immaterial demandsand environmental concerns of a place of cultural significance are discussed as opposed to the welladaptedsetting of a museum, with regard to long-term preservation. In an authentic interior of acertain era, large-scale individual treatments of the objects that define it and regulations forconservation-related reasons, may not be considered a worth-while effort, as it is often the integrityof the environment as a whole that has been declared as significant. To investigate the relationshipbetween object and its context, a case study has been conducted by examination of the propertycalled ?Curmans villor?, located in the seaside community called Lysekil.
Vilka faktorer bidrar till en plats attraktivitet? - En fallstudie över stortorget i Karlskrona
Vad kan räknas som attraktivt? Är det helt upp till en plats besökare om
platsen är attraktiv eller kan det påverkas av den fysiska planeringen? I detta
arbete kommer begreppet attraktivitet diskuteras och definieras utifrån vald
litteratur. Principer och riktlinjer på saker som kan bidra till attraktivitet
i det offentliga rummet kommer att lyftas fram och tillämpas på stortorget i
Karlskrona för att först se om torget redan idag kan räknas som attraktivt samt
förslag på hur det kan förbättras utifrån framtagna kriterier..
Det är ju nästan krig
This paper intends to examine how two newspapers, one local and one national newspaper, reported the gang-related homicides in Malmo in 2011, and compares these two news reports to see if there are any similarities and differences. Another aspect of this study is to elucidate how these two newspapers constitute Malmo as a city.
Fairclough?s critical discourse analysis is applied in this study, where I analyze the two newspapers? news coverage based on their content. The content is analyzed by studying the text?s vocabulary, grammar, cohesion, structure, transitivity and modality.
One similarity is the use of objective modalities, where both newspapers have a tendency to make interpretations and speculations as fact.
RAFFLES CITY - Lokala och globala dimensioner av ett urbant komplex i Chengdu
In a time where many Asian metropolises experience an expansive development new urbanconditions are created and the already existing disappears or being replaced. Asian cities develop ata pace that is unprecedented in our history and which, through a western perspective can seemharsh. By focusing on an urban complex in Chengdu, capital of the southwestern province ofSichuan China, the study asks; is it possible to see this rapid urbanization from another perspective?The study examines the local and global dimensions of Raffels City, and how concepts such asnostalgia and authenticity, related to the city, can be understood in an urbanization that is so markedby massive demolitions. The study shows that these concepts can be expressed in several ways, andthat an awareness of them does not necessarily control the view of the city..
Threats and opportunities for the survival of the Yangtze finless porpoise
The Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaorientalis), is a small freshwater cetacean which has recently fallen dramatically in number. It is an endemic species for the Yangtze River and unless drastic action is taken, it risks the same fate as the now functionally extinct Yangtze river dolphin (Lipotes vexillifer). Threats to the porpoise are diverse but they have in common that they are caused by man. Development of the river has been made to supply a growing human population with food, hydropower, and to reduce the risk of flooding. These changes have resulted in a degraded habitat for the porpoise.
Invandrare, kulturmöte och bibliotek
The main aim of this paper is to illurninate how a group of immigrants meet the publiclibrary in Sweden. I have chosen to discuss Iranian immigrants' meeting with the publiclibrary in Borås. The investigation (qualitative interviews and inquiries) has taken placein the public library of Borås and partly in a local library with high density of immigrants.A theoretical perspective deals with the case study of dual marginality, where theconception of the "Marginal Man" or "The Outsider" is central. I have indicated how theprevious authors have considered this problem, to live on the verge between twodifferent cultures and how individuals react on it.The interviews and inquiries answered by Iranian immigrants are the most importantmaterial in this investigation and the result of them is connected to the theoreticalperspective and a discussion, what it means for the public library..
Beredning av lokalnät i landsbygd
In this thesis a rural network in Norrbotten, Sweden, has been to designed and planned with the purpose of improving distribution reliability by exchanging existing overhead lines with underground cables. General network design considerations are discussed as well as the ones for the specific low voltage grid. During the design phase the maximum power of domestic consumers has been estimated using Velander?s method. Currents, voltage drop and impedance of the network have been calculated and fuse operation and selectivity has been considered.
Pottholmen -mer än bara trafik
Arbetes syfte är att resultera i ett planförslag för Pottholmen och svara på
tre frågeställningar som behandlar översvämningsrisk, tillgången till
offentliga och mer privata delar och möjligheten till ökad vattenkontakt. För
att få en förståelse för Pottholmen har jag använt mig av metoden realistisk
stadsanalys. Jag har även använt mig av Kevin Lynch begrepp för att kartera
området. Resultatet av arbetet blev ett planförslag över ett nytt område som är
intressant att röra sig genom tack vare användningen av Gordon Cullens teori om
serial vision och som är uppbyggt av både offentliga, halvoffentliga och
halvprivata rum enligt Jan Gehls teorier..
FN-organisationens inflytande över demokratiseringsprocessen i Kosovo
In my paper I have examined the United Nations role in the democratization of Kosovo. In order to complete this purpose I have asked two questions? How has the UN contributed to the democratization of Kosovo that has taken place so far?? What advantages and/or disadvantages has the UN presence in Kosovo had from a democratic perspective?The method I have used in my paper is a qualitative one, and more specified a qualitative text analysis. This means that I have examined a rather small number of sources, but in return I have analyzed these sources very carefully. In addition to the choice of a qualitative method I have used Robert A.
