The work covered in this report includes a literature study of the diesel dual fuel technology(hereinafter referred to as DDF). The literature study covers earlier work that has been doneregarding the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) and diesel in a DDF system. Moreover a onecylinder research diesel engine was fitted with a CNG fuel system for experimental testing. Theinstallation of the engine and the test cell is described. Results from the tests are presentedcovering emissions, heat release and pressure traces from the DDF-concept.During the literature study it was found that most research was related to heavy duty dieselengines.

The amount of cargo has since the 1970s increased in Sweden and the road traffic accounts for a large part of the transported volume. In Stockholm County the amount of cargo is calculated to be doubled in size from year 2001 to 2020 which means a greater need for transport is required. Much of these transports are being carried out by haulage companies of varying sizes which acts externally as carriers for their customers. All of this despite a greater awareness, laws and demands regarding environmental performance.The trend shows that the haulage industry in Sweden are moving towards fewer but larger haulage companies, which means that the competition is getting tougher for the smaller haulage companies. Smaller haulage companies and research about their competitive strategies is a neglected part of this industry.

The purpose of this Masters thesis is to investigate and describe the literary life of Madame de Staël, during the period of the French Revolution and the time shortly after. My intention is to do research on her impact and influence. I also want to examine her effect on Swedish literary society, with special references to Swedish authors. The method used is a qualitative one, where I have studied nonfiction and fiction connected with the field, for example Mme de Staëls own writings, which I make use of to illustrate the phenomena. During this period the society was dominated by patriarchical values and patterns of life.

Bakgrund: Trycksår är en kvalitetsindikator på omvårdnaden, med rätt använda metoder kan trycksår helt förebyggas. Trots detta förekommer trycksår fortfarande och orsakar stort lidande för de som drabbas. En attityd till någonting (attitydobjekt) kan bestå av en uppfattning som kommer sig av kunskap och erfarenhet, en känsla för attitydobjektet och en intention bakom handlingen. Attityden kan ge sig i uttryck i form av ett beteende, sk manifest attityd. En del i attitydbegreppet är kunskap och kunskap i sig själv kan delas upp i teoretisk och praktisk kunskap.

Conjunctival swabs from 12 cats in a Swedish animal shelter were analyzed by real-time PCR for FHV-1, Mycoplasma felis and chlamydiae. The purpose of this study was to see whether and to what extent these agents can be detected and if they were detected from cats housed in quarantine or in the adoption department. Samples were first taken upon arrival at the quarantine and then a second sample was taken two weeks after moving to the adoption department, or upon presentation of signs of disease. The cats spent the quarantine period in two separate quarantines: five in a new quarantine (quarantine A) and seven in a room in the old shelter (quarantine B). The difference between these quarantines was that in B the cats were often mixed together ant the hygiene routines were not as good as in quarantine A.

Malmö högskola Lärarutbildningen SÄL, svenska, svenska som andraspråk och engelska. Höstterminen 2005 Denna undersökning visar på vikten av kontinuerlig modersmålsundervisning för elever med minoritetsspråk. Arbetet ger också en översikt över forskning som gjorts med tanke på dessa barns skolframgångar och belyser modersmålsundervisningens innehåll i Lund. Resultaten från både enkät och intervjuer redovisas och ger förhoppningsvis en klar bild av verksamheten och en rad förbättringar presenteras inför kommande år på de skolor där jag själv arbetar. Min intention var att undersöka vad undervisningen styrs av, vilka hinder och möjligheter som finns för samarbete mellan oss lärare och att visa vilka kringliggande faktorer som egentligen påverkar denna undervisning? Slutsatsen blev att vi skall värna om den här undervisningen för att den är en sådan viktig länk både i barnens språkutveckling och i deras identitetsutveckling. Barnen har också mycket lättare att lära sig sitt andraspråk om de kan sitt modersmål bra.

Natt i marknadstältet is considered as one of Lars Ahlin?s most significant works of fiction.

This paper is about employees' opinion towards libraries. The target group consists of employees at industrial research institutes in Sweden. Libraries offer several more services today than they have done before. I think many people do not recognise all of them and I also think the knowledge and the opinion about libraries have to do with use of them. Since I am curious about if this is true or not the purpose of this essay is to find out, through an attitude research, the employees', at industrial research institutes, opinion about library service.

Syftet med denna studie är att beskriva fyra lärares uppfattningar om Arne Tragetons metod att skriva sig till läsning i sin undervisning och vilka begrepp som de använder när de beskriver metoden. Den metod som används i studien är kvalitativa intervjuer. Teoretisk grund för studien bygger på ett sociokulturellt perspektiv. Teori baserad på ett sociokulturellt perspektiv har använts i analysen av denna studie. Begrepp som lärarna använt sig av i studien är bland annat verktyg, samarbete, erfarenhet, upplevelse, glädje, kreativitet och kommunikation.

Vår kvalitativa studie utgår från vad lärare säger sig ha för intentioner med läxor och vilket förhållningssätt de har till dem. Vi ville skapa oss en bild om hur vi kan förhålla oss till läxor i vår kommande yrkesroll som lärare. För att uppnå syftet med studien intervjuade vi fyra lärare i de tidiga skolåren. Utifrån materialet intervjuerna gav kom vi fram till fyra olika kategorier kring lärares förhållningssätt till läxor: Läxor som tradition och rutin, Lärares syn på läxor med hänsyn till eleven, Läxans tidsvinst och tidskostnad samt Föräldrar som läxhjälp och samarbetspartner. Resultatet visar att för lärare är läxor viktiga för att upprätthålla en bra och nära relation till föräldrar och för att föräldrarna ska bli delaktiga och kunna se vad deras barn presterar och arbetar med i skolan.

Lyckebo farm is the original name of the four building big farm, where year 2000, the former farmer established Maglarp/ Lyckebo golfcourse on his land of culture. In 2007, new owners are approaching the Maglarps golfcourse with thoughts of expanding the business. A first step in that direction is to form the area of the entrance, the specific area the visitors are staying at before entering the actual golfcourse to play. The designproposal is inspired by the peasant garden history of southern Sweden during the nineteenth centuary. It also aims to satisfy the demands of function and usefullness of a golfcourse today.

In recent decades here has been a huge development in information technology (IT), where we humans are increasingly using IT in our daily lives, ranging from social media to music streaming services; this has also been a reflection of the technologies developed to our cars. Infotainment systems have become an increasingly regular feature in modern cars where the high degree of integration such as navigation, mobile and Internet has become more common and more sought after. Despite this, relatively little research problemized User Experience of a complex infotainment system in a car. This study thus has the intention to consider the relevance of reality based tests by examining how the user experiences a complex infotainment system in a car. We asked ourselves; How do the user experience a complex infotainment system in a car? We conducted our qualitative study, an interview with researchers in the field of vehicle and road safety and designed a number of system-related activities in a test session where we observed three users.

Problem: How do delivery logistics work in practice at the building site? Where are the big problems? How to make building logistics more effective? Do the site management and the haulers agree about questions concerning both parties? What is possible to gain by using better logistics? Is it possible to gain time with better logistics and by that reducing the costs? Purpose and aim: The purpose is to discover if there are any disagreements between the site management and the haulers. If disagreements occur they will be examined and probable measures based on the problems will be suggested. Another intention is to bring key ratios concerning time spent for deliveries forward. One aim is to update a similar report made in 1972.
