De återstående två tredjedelar av tunnlarna igenom Hallandsåsen kommer att slutföras med hjälp av fullortsborrningsteknik. Tunnelborrmaskinen (TBM) är en sköldad maskin som har möjlighet att gå i öppet så väl som slutet läge. Slutet läge innebär att utrymmet framför borrhuvudet trycksätts av en slurryblandning med åtta bars mottryck som begränsar vatteninläckaget samt stabiliserar fronten. Även förbehandling av bergmassan genom skölden eller genom borrhuvudet är möjlig för att begränsa vatteninläckaget och stabilisera bergmassan framför fronten. TBM:en är utrustad med borriggar från Atlas Copco som har möjlighet att använda sig av MWD-teknik (measure while drilling).

The incidence of many of the most common diseases in dairy cattle has been proven to be highest during the time closest to calving. It is possible that the current breeding strategy with 12 month calving intervals increases the risk for disease in dairy cattle, which is problematic concerning both animal welfare and for economic reasons. The economic incentives behind a calving interval of 12 to 13 months have mainly been based on milk- and feed- costs and no costs due to diseases or fertility disturbances have been included.The aim of this study was to see if a lengthening of the calving interval would result in lower disease frequency. The hypothesis is that cows with a planned calving interval of 15 months have a lower disease incidence than cows with a calving interval of 12 months due to less number of calvings. Therefore the difference in disease frequency should be larger when compared over a long period of time, such as over lifetime, since cows with a longer calving interval experience fewer calvings.The study was performed between August 17th, 1994, and January 24th, 2007.

This master thesis is about a place that has a story to tell. Olsson?s garden came about when Mr Carl Oscar Olsson acquired a piece of land in Landalabergen in the beginning of the 1930's and at that time he started his industrious work of uniting much of Sweden's flora in his garden. Since the very beginning Olsson's garden has played a lot of different rolls in a variety of situations and meant different things for different people. Today one can find traces from Mr Olsson's life and deeds in the garden.

Political scandals are constantly abound in the media, rulers face the global tribunal of the mass media and are forced to defend their actions and above all, their position in society. This essay concerns itself with that defence ? more specifi- cally with the defence of four Swedish politicians in high office during four different scandals. Gudrun Schymans? eva- sion, Laila Freivalds? dealing with the tsunami disaster in Thailand, Annie Lo?o?fs? tangle concerning representation notes and public documents and Tobias Billstro?ms? statements concerning undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers.

During the last 50 years the production of milk per cow has increased. This has, however, been followed by a decreased reproductive performance. Shorter and more indistinct signs of oestrus make it harder for the Swedish farmers to discover when the cows are in oestrus. There is a need for ways to control reproduction. The use of pheromones could possibly provide means to satisfy this need.

Sheep production is the only animal production in Sweden that is increasing. Therefore,increasing knowledge of the production is of great interest. In order to run a viable sheepproduction, producers needs to be successful in the breeding of the animals and achievean economic surplus in the end. Lambs that are born healthy and vital have greaterconditions to perform high lamb weight gains and thus a successful production. Thereare many factors affect the survival, birth weight and early weight gain of the new bornlamb.

Spiralanvändning tycks öka i yngre åldersgrupper och hormonspiral föreslås allt oftare till kvinnor sominte har varit gravida (nollgravida). Den kliniska erfarenheten av spiralinsättning i denna grupp ärbegränsad och det saknas vetenskapligt underlag avseende behov av och vilken typ av premedicineringsom är adekvat. Syftet med denna studie var att utvärdera smärtupplevelsen vid spiralinsättning hosnollgravida i förhållande till given premedicinering samt att utvärdera vilken premedicinering som gavbäst effekt vid spiralinsättning hos nollgravida kvinnor. Metoden var en kvantitativ och deskriptivobservations- och tvärsnittstudie. Denna utfördes som ett led i vårdutveckling inom primärvården i SödraBohuslän.

Latent heat storage is a way to store thermal energy when a phase change material undergoes a phase change. The advantage of latent heat storage is the capability to store more energy per mass unit than other heat storage methods. The most commonly used phase change in latent heat storage is the transition between solid and liquid. Phase change materials can be divided into organics, inorganics and eutectics.In the Nordic electricity market the price of electricity is set every hour by Nordpool spot, which leads to price fluctuations because of changes in demand. The main goal of this report is to create a latent heat storage system in a single-family home and investigate the possibility to save money by charging the latent heat storage system when the price of electricity is low, and discharge when the price is high.The thermodynamic model consisted of a ?tube-in-tube? heat exchanger with phase change material in the outer tube and water as the heat transfer fluid in the inner tube.

Idag möts vi människor av allt mer reklam och varumärken där företagen konstant strävar efter att öka försäljning samt stärka sitt varumärke på marknaden. Det stora arbetet med att differentiera och kommunicera sitt varumärke har på så sätt blivit väldigt viktigt då utbudet växer. Den tidigare mass- och relationsmarknadsföringen har i många avseenden fokuserat påatt kommunicera produkterna och varumärket kring dem. I den framväxandesamhällskulturen där fokus på upplevelser av en produkt och dess varumärke börjat vinna mark, blir en ny typ av marknadsföring viktig, nämligen sinnesmarknadsföring. Sinnesmarknadsföring syftar till att via människans fem sinnen påverka och erbjuda kunder en upplevelse som ges via stimulis riktade till sinnena.

Projektet har genomförts som ett examensarbete i civilingenjörs utbildning med inriktning mot energi. Arbetet har genomförts vid New Bolidens smältverk, Rönnskärsverken, i Skelleftehamn.Syftet med detta examensarbete var att finna ett ekonomiskt mer optimalt körsätt på fumingverket med avseende på zink och energiproduktion samt förbättra dess samverkan med energicentralens energibehov. Största producenten av ånga och fjärrvärme på Rönnskärsverken är fumingverket.Olika driftförhållanden påverkar både produktionen av ånga och fjärrvärme. Tillgängligheten på zinkrik slagg samt reducerad ångproduktion vid tappning av slagg påverkar mest. Vid låg produktion av ånga i fumingverket och stor förbrukning på Rönnskär, samt stor konsumtion av fjärrvärme används oljepannor för att upprätthålla behovet.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has the potential to be used for the diagnosis and study of osteoarthrosis in the equine tarsal region. In the development of new diagnostic MRI techniques cadaver specimens are often used. To allow the use of cadaver legs for these types of studies it is important to know the effect of time after death on the MRI image. Since the relaxation times are temperature dependent, it is interesting to examine whether the time after death and the temperature of the cadaver may play a role in the image appearance and quality. The radio pulse sequences that show the different types of tissues are also important to know when pathological evaluation with MRI is used.

Title: The impact of environment on music students' commitment to music - a study of attitudes among music students and their parents. The purpose of this essay is to illustrate the importance of environmental influence on childrens' musical interests and factors inspiring children to play instruments and sing. The parents' opinions, regarding the extent of the effect of the environment on the musical interest of their child, are compared in the text, with the childrens' own opinions in this matter. I conducted the survey in two music classes in Malmö. I used a questionnaire, where all students participated and I also conducted qualitative interviews with four students and their parents.

The abrupt and early weaning of intensively kept lambs may have serious animal welfare implications, but relatively little is known about this. Weaning includes the breaking of the mother-young bond and abrupt replacement of milk by solid food, often coinciding with changes in the (social) environment. Altogether, these changes are likely to affect lamb welfare significantly. This study aimed to establish how strong and persistent lamb welfare is impaired following abrupt weaning by means of measuring behaviour parameters indicative of affective state. Also, we investigated the existence of a diurnal rhythm in play behaviour, which is considered an important indicator of positive affect and good welfare.
