Miljonprogram is a Swedish building program from 1964 to 1975. During that time about a million homes were constructed. Now, almost 50 years later, they are in desperate need of renovation. In order to fulfil the Swedish environmental objective to decrease energy consumption 50 per cent until 2050, considerable housing stock built under the Miljonprogram has to be renovated.Focus in this thesis is on the building services and theirs profitability that can decrease energy consumption in households build during the Miljonprogram. Building construction is not considered in this report.

Ericsson AB in Katrineholm is a part of the Section Business Unit Network in the Ericsson Group. The plant's main task is to produce printed circuit boards in small volumes with a high product mix and focus on delivery and cost effectiveness. At the factory they produce printed circuit boards in the Module department.The Module department has for a long time had a high output of non-approved circuit boards in their production. This has led to a growing stock of non-approved circuit boards on the company?s repair department.The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how Ericsson in Katrineholm can increase the outflow of approved articles in their test process in the Module department.

This thesis was performed at Zetterbergs Industri AB. Zetterbergs is designing, building and mounts body systems for trucks, including dumpers and tippers. The assignment for the thesis was to design a door hinge for a spreader gate. The spreader gate is the top of the two tailgates on a dumper or tipper and opens back and outwards when tipping the cargo. The spreader gate controls the mass flow of the material being tipped.

AbstractThe church of Borrie lies about 10 km north of Ystad in the southern of Sweden. Though thechurch is one of the smallest in Scania it holds a very complicated history.In this essay all relevent material concerning the church of Borrie is presented. The materialdoes not only concist of literature, but also photographs. The purpose of this investigationwas to use this material to sort out and explain the history of the church of Borrie.The problem is presented in the following points:1. Is it possible to do a building archaeological analysis with photographs of the churchas the main material?2.

Wood pellets are an upgraded product of residuals from several wood processing industries, for example saw mills and pulp industries. The pellets are produced by pressing the milled and dried sawdust to cylindrical units with a higher density than the initial raw material. Pellets have great benefits compared to the raw material: high energy per volume, good transport and storage properties and homogeneity. Several parameters collaborate in the whole process, which makes it complex. Wood is a heterogeneous material, chemically and structurally dependent on wood parts, habitat and storage procedures.

The aim of this master thesis is to examine the identity of librarians. We have done this by conducting a text analysis where we have analysed texts produced by DIK, the major union of librarians, and by Library and Information Science departments in Sweden. The material we have analysed is texts produced in the aim of introducing and marketing the librarian occupation and education. The aim of this study is to find out how the identity of the librarian is expressed in this material. We have conducted the text analysis by adopting the critical discourse analyst Norman Fairclough´s theories.

Scania Top Team is a competition where the best mechanics in the world are competing against each other. In 2011, the world final was recorded and this material is now used to see which problem solving strategies these top of the line teams are using to solve the realistic problems assembled in front of them. To help them, the mechanics are allowed to use two of Scanias IT-systems: Scania Multi and Scania Diagnose and Programmer 3. This report consists of two parts. The first part is the development of a method to analyze the recorded material.

A case study of professional interaction designers' usage of design materials was conducted. Five interviews were performed in order to gain insight in the systems used by designers, how these work, how they collaborate within them, and what they think of recent research about them. Design studios allow collaboration for several users at once. Digital material (mockups, pictures, etc.) are commonly used, but needs to be made analog, e.g. printed, to be usable in the design studio environment.

This paper is to identify and analyze a new trend which we believehas taken off, based on qualitative interviews and analysis of three productions which we have been involved in during a practiceperiod of two months with a production company in Stockholm. This essay intends to define this trend as an organic formation of digital material and to identify the key characteristics which form the basis of how to create a production of this nature..

Läroplanen för förskolan Lpfö 98 (rev 2010) trycker på att förskolan ska lägga stor vikt vid att stimulera varje barns språkutveckling och med hjälp av olika uttrycksformer främja barns utveckling och lärande. Förskolelärarens roll är att stimulera och utmana barnet i en innehållsrik och inbjudande miljö. Syftet med vår studie är att undersöka hur fyra förskolelärare resonerar gällande kommunikation med barn i yngre åldrar på förskolan. Vi har utfört en kvalitativ fallstudie som innehåller strukturerade intervjuer. Våra intervjuer genomfördes på två förskolor i två olika kommuner i Sverige där fyra förskolelärare tillfrågades.

This is a paper about the effects from smoldering fire on lithic objects from an archaeological view. The introduction gives the background to this paper, a short orientation to forest wildfires and why the work is limited to: flint, quartz, quartzite and slate. Material and methods describes the stone materials and the setup that was used in the temperature logged tests with three replications for each type of material. The fuel in the burnings was peat on a bottom of sand. Flint showed a more drastic effect from heat compared with the other materials. Slate seems to have greater tendencies to change to darker colour and luster at lower temperatures than the other materials.

Personer som står inför att välja material vid en ny- eller ombyggnad har otroligt mycket att välja emellan. Att göra ett bra val kan innebära olika saker, men för mig är ett bra val att välja ett material som gör så lite skada på vår natur och på oss människor som möjligt. Skada innefattar vanliga fysiska skador och påverkningar, men även dåliga materialval som leder till onödiga kostnader. Att välja ett material som måste underhållas ofta, eller repareras och bytas ut tidigt, är ett dåligt val. Går det sen inte att återanvända eller återvinna grundmaterialet på nytt är det ännu sämre.I min undersökning har jag tittat på fasadmaterial, takmaterial, färger, fönster och dörrar.

Denna uppsats bygger på en kvalitativ intervjuundersökning med fem informanter. Syftet med studien var att undersöka ett antal gymnasielärares syn på användning av läroboksmaterial och autentiskt material i deras engelskundervisning. Fyra av fem informanter i denna undersökning såg autenticitet som en aspekt av texten. Majoriteten av informanterna ansåg vidare att autentiska texter är skapade för andra sammanhang än undervisning. Samtliga informanter föredrog att arbeta med autentiska texter och majoriteten använde en större andel autentiska texter än lärobokstexter samt ansåg att det autentiska materialet bättre förbereder elever för att läsa riktiga texter.

Syfte: Vårt syfte med studien har varit att undersöka vad som sker i processen vid lärande av dans och om de estetiska ämnena kan vara en bidragande faktor till studieframgång. Genom att förankra dansen i teori och forskning har vi velat belysa dansen som kunskapsområde ur ett bredare pedagogiskt perspektiv. Ambitionen har varit att på detta vis försöka beskriva vad eleverna får för kompetens med sig då de ägnar sig åt estetiska ämnen, i synnerhet dans. Vi har även velat undersöka hur elevernas kunskap kommer till uttryck och om denna kunskap är användbar i andra sammanhang än just i samband med dans. För att svara på frågor inriktade mot dansområdet har vi även blickat ut mot andra estetiska fält.

This is a thesis presents a differential gear which is found in a tracked vehicle called BvS10. The tracked vehicle is manufactured by BAE Systems Hägglunds AB in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. The differential gear has a bolted house. The differential meets the requirement specifications, but the problem is that the bolts are sheared off because of the extreme torque that the differential is exposed to resist.Previous report on the differential show pictures of bolts which have been sheared off at the threads. This report is also includes three lists that explain seven different proposals which some are approved and some are not, and the report also presents the force, tensile, and shear stress.In a bolted connection there is both axial tension stress and radial shear stress, which can lead to wear out and broken bolts.
