This thesis paper discusses the results of a survey which was conducted to investigate the potential usefulness of mobile apps in the maintenance department at Perstorp Specialty Chemicals AB. The paper contains four sections, a theory section, a method section , a section that explains the functionality of the app, and finally a results section where the results and conclusions of the survey are discussed. The theory section explains and discusses relevant terminology used in the computer science field and in the maintenance industry. The theoretical model used in this paper is also discussed. The methods section gives a stepwise description of the project and a description of platform and software used.

Bakgrund: Prehospital akutsjukvård innefattar den vård som utförs utanför sjukhus. Prehospital akutsjukvård utförs främst av ambulanspersonal men kan vid större olyckor även inkludera organisationer som polis och räddningstjänst. Inom prehospital vård är prioritering är en viktig faktor för en fungerande organisation. Sjuksköterskans roll inom prehospital vård upplevs av många som komplex där bemötandet är en förutsättning för god vård. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att kartlägga sjuksköterskans upplevelse av att vårda patienter prehospitalt.

The producers of grain in Sweden are facing a rough future. The competition is getting harder all the time, in Sweden, in EU and also from the ?world market?. The producers have to be more efficient and have to have bigger units. Many producers might have to look for new alternative production opportunities.

Idag ökar antalet fall av utmattnings- och stressrelaterade sjukdomar i västvärlden. Inom området landskapsplanering finns tankar om att detta har ett samband med dagens snabbt växande städer och minskade utrymme för återhämtning i grönområden. Inom miljöpsykologin lyfter Rachel och Steven Kaplan, Roger S. Ulrich och Patrik Grahn fram miljön och omgivningens inverkan på mental utmattning och återhämtning. Målet var att undersöka, diskutera och jämföra deras teorier om mental återhämtning kopplat till upplevelsen av gröna miljöer med fokus på de tre delarna (1) det tillstånd en individ återhämtar sig ifrån, d.v.s.

In this project I have created a design for the delivery rooms of Swedish hospitals with the psychological aspects ofbirthgiving in focus. This is something that I think the delivery rooms lack and so far it has been the midwifes job to,without any tools, give the women in labor the mental support and encouragement they need.My goal was to give the midwifes a tool to work with when it comes to encouragement, something helping themhelping the woman to feel safe and relaxed, strengthened, informed and in control of the situation.I choose to focus on the difficulties measuring the physical work the woman in labour had done and what was leftof the labour. I wanted to visualize the process of the birth, allowing the woman to see and being able to focus onwhere during the labour she is, how far she has left and also being strengthened by the amount of work already managed.Further I wanted to make the woman feel invited to take control over the birth and the room in which she isin labour. I wanted her to be able ? if she wanted ? to make her own settings of the mood in the room, deciding forherself if she wanted a more relaxed environment or perhaps a more energetic.

In this degree project we wanted to investigate if there are any possibilities to get a higher income from grain growing by giving the grain to hens instead of selling it. We were also wondering if the manure has any value or if it only cost the egg producer money. If the egg producer cultivate his own grain and is able to store it in layer is there quite much money to earn. Expensive pasture makes it profitability to pay up to 1,35 Swedish crowns for a kilo of wheat. In our calculating we?ve used calculation from the company Lantmännen.

This final thesis is performed on commission of Hargs Bruk Ltd. Hargs Bruk manages one of Sweden?s largest privately owned forests. A main part of the managed forest is situated in Roslagen in eastern Uppland. Since 1934 felling calculations have been performed within the estate every tenth year.

Syfte och frågeställningarSyftet med studien var att kartlägga den mentala hälsan bland brandmän på sex av Storstockholms brandförsvars (SSBF) stationer. Ytterligare syfte var att undersöka vilka faktorer relaterade till arbetsmiljön som göra att brandmännen mår bra respektive mår mindre bra. Dessutom ville studien undersöka om det finns samband mellan brandmännens upplevda mentala hälsa och arbetsrelaterade faktorer, så som antal larm/år, befattning och antal år jobbat inom yrket? Hur upplevs den mentala hälsan på de sex stationerna i SSBF?Vilka faktorer relaterade till arbetsmiljö anser brandmännen påverkar deras mentala hälsa?Finns det ett samband mellan brandmännens upplevda mentala hälsa och arbetsrelaterade faktorer, så som antal larm/år, befattning och antal år jobbat inom yrket? MetodDatainsamlingen till undersökningen skedde med en kvantitativ enkätmetod. Målgruppen var 116 brandmän med samtliga befattningar i utryckande tjänst på de sex brandstationerna.

According to the Board of Forestry, in Västerbotten, many natural regenerations of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) carried out on privately owned forest in the middle of 1990 in Västerbotten have rendered a bad regeneration outcome and will provide a low future forest production. The Board of Forestry believes that the negative result can be explained by the fact that the regeneration has been carried out in wrong locations and that scarification failed to work as planned. In order for an accepted rate of regeneration the guidelines of the Forrest Act require, not less than 10 years after final cutting at natural regeneration, that there should be at least 1300 (site indices 16 m) - 1700 (site indices 20 m) main crop stems per hectare. Main crop stems are defined as stems according to the place of growth and appropriate tree type, in addition with regard to quality, stage of development and damage risk have a prospect of succeeding. In addition main crop stems should be separated by surface so that the proportion sample plots with 3 meters radius, and lack main crop stems, are not more than 10 % of site indices 14 meters or higher.

This study is about children that have been forced to flee to another country, due to conflict, poverty or natural disasters, without their families. They are known as unaccompanied refugee children. The aim of the study is to, by focusing on individual children's feelings and experiences of being forced to flee create greater knowledge and understanding of what is hidden behind some of the statistic of migration.To answer the aim of the study, I used the following research questions: How is a child affected by being forced to leave home and to flee to a foreign country? How does an unaccompanied refugee child perceive the exodus? How do the unaccompanied refugee children handle their situation during the flight and at arrival in Sweden?The study is based on a qualitative method and consists in semi-structured interviews with five unaccompanied refugee children aged 17 to 21. The theoretical framework is based on three theoretical concepts; refugee crisis, identity and coping.The study results show that these children are a very vulnerable group, who were forced to be exposed to several losses and traumas.

Bakgrund: Våld på arbetsplatsen har blivit alltmer vanligt inom vården och det är ett problem många sjuksköterskor någon gång kommer utsättas för. Våld kan både vara fysiskt och verbalt och kan orsaka konsekvenser i form av försämrad  mental hälsa, samt känslor som rädsla eller otrygghet på arbetsplatsen. Dessa konsekvenser kan i sin tur påverka sjuksköterskornas arbetsförmåga och produktivitet. Syfte: Att beskriva psykosociala konsekvenser av fysiskt och verbalt våld från patienter/och eller anhöriga riktat mot sjuksköterskor som jobbar på sjukhus samt vilken påverkan våldet har på sjusköterskors relation till arbetet och förmåga att ge en patientsäker vård. Metod: Litteraturstudie baserat på 14 kvantitativa och kvalitativa vetenskapliga artiklar.

New technology makes it possible to remotely measure all consumers in a power network onan hourly basis and store the values in a database.This thesis work describes the conversion process between automatic meter reading systemMActor and calculation software Xpower.Then the possible differences between calculations of power networks using load curves incombination with a yearly estimate of consumption and calculations using hourly measuredvalues is examined.The result of the comparison shows that, for the power network under inspection, nosignificant difference could be noticed. This does not mean that calculations using hourlymeasured values would be unnecessary. I believe that in a near future calculations using hourmeasurements will be the primary choice for many power companies to whom technology isavailable.Also some basic calculations of fundamental power network parameters, such as power factorand loses, are presented using hourly measured distribution transformers in combinations withits hourly measured loads.The report is written in Swedish.

The Swedish government have a goal that wind turbines shall produce 30 TWh by the year 2020, compared to about 3,5 TWh produced in Sweden during 2010. To minimize the disturbance that wind turbines create the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency has stated a guideline value that noise from wind turbines at nearby residents shouldn?t exceed 40 dBA, at 8 m/s wind speed. With advanced calculation models, like Nord 2000, the emitted sound from future wind turbines can be calculated at an early stage to optimize the power production without exceeding the 40 dBA. When the turbines have been built there is a need to verify that they really are within the guideline.

Bakgrund: Fysisk aktivitet är något i princip alla människor behöver för att må bra fysiskt och mentalt. Några som är i extra stort behov av fysisk aktivitet är personer med psykisk ohälsa då de ofta också drabbas fysisk ohälsa. Bland annat beroende på att passivitet kan vara ett symtom och att en del psykofarmaka ger metabola störningar.  Syfte: Syftet var att belysa upplevelser av motion hos personer med psykisk ohälsa samt faktorer som kan vara motiverande.  Metod: En litteratursökning har genomförts för att skapa en översikt över vetenskapliga artiklar om   motiverande faktorer och upplevelser av fysisk aktivitet hos personer med psykisk ohälsa. Studien baseras på åtta kvalitativa artiklar som granskats och analyserats med influens av Willman & Stoltz (2012) samt Friberg (2012). Det vetenskapliga underlaget  är hämtat från Cinahl, psycinfo samt Pubmed och artiklarna är publicerade mellan 2000-2013.  Resultat: Dataanalysen gav tre huvudteman.

In the past, the meaning of marriage has been an agreement between two people to live together and have children in a legitimate manner. The marriage was not just to form a couple; it was also to merge two families together. From the early 1900s until today the allegation of marriage and its influence got a significant change compared to early societies which have aroused my interest to perform this into a research paper. My study is focused on marriage and social changes during the 1900s. Thoughts that arise now is that why there was a remarkable change in the marriage rate during the 1900s and whether there were any social changes had to do something with it.
