This thesis has been carried out on behalf of IV Produkt AB and intends to set an average ratio of thermal energy losses in apartment buildings that were built during the 1960-1990. This shall be derived by analyzing the total district energy consumption that has been divided into three parts: heat energy losses (the actual heating requirements), the heating of domestic hot water and heating energy consumption for the controlled ventilation.Three different residential areas that were built during the years 1962-1966 and one that was built in 1993 has been analyzed. All residential areas are located in Växjö urban and contains between four and six apartment buildings.The analyzed objects have a mechanical exhaust ventilation systems and district heating as the heating method. No own laboratory work or experiments have been done in this thesis, the calculations have been done on the basis of parameters from VEAB, interviews with property managers, and literature studies. By calculations, we have got a result that is reported in Chapter 6.

I uppsatsen undersöks möjligheterna med kommersiell mikrofinans. Det historiska förloppet bakom mikrofinansinstitutens utveckling studeras och dagens forskning synas. Möjligheterna med kommersiell mikrofinans kopplas sedan samman med en undersökning av avkastningen på det egna kapitalet hos mikrofinansinstitut av olika typer i Sydamerika, Centralamerika och Karibien. Den sista undersökningen genomförs i syfte att hitta lämpliga investeringsklimat i den region som anses ha kommit längst med mikrofinans. Undersökningen av möjligheterna med kommersiell mikrofinans visar att det finns diversifierningsmöjligheter, möjligheter med att anpassa räntederivat från den reguljära finansmarknaden till mikrofinansmarknaden, möjligheter att öppna upp en enorm marknad, möjligheter till hög avkastning tack vare hög återbetalningsförmåga och slutligen att det finns en möjlighet att mätta ett enormt behov i u-länderna.

Even though Sweden is a small country which has a low rate of inhabitants is it one of the worlds leading nations of exporting products from the forest industries. The Importance of a sustainable use of the Swedish forests has been known for many years. In 1903 the first law of forestry were establish. Today the National Board of Forestry carry out inventories of regeneration result. The result of the latest inventory showed that especially the non-industrial private forest owners did not full fill the regeneration work after a clear cut.

Farmers Cooperative has in recent years developed from national markets to cross-border, international, collaborations. One example is the merger between the Swedish dairy company Arla and Danish MD Foods, where the companies collectively are sought to reduce transaction costs and thus improve efficiency. The Swedish market for commodities (fertilizers and pesticides) in agriculture has for many years been dominated by a few large players, with little opportunity for grain associations and local grain companies to offer their customers a varied range of commodities with a competitive pricing.To change this state, a majority of Swedish and Danish grain associations and local grain companies have established a trans-national cooperation. Through the establishment of the organization DLA Agro, they offer their customers a good variety of products with competitive prices. This study investigates thus according to the theory of cooperative models to what extent and how the DLA Agro helps to create benefits for the Swedish member companies.

This thesis scrutinises the material on post World War II Swedish architecture produced by the Swedish Public diplomacy organisation "Svenska institutet" ("The Swedish Institute") during the period of 1945 through 1976. The outset is the dilemma encountered by every such organisation: how can the projected narrative of the own nation relate to as many countries as possible, without becoming too general? And how can the organisation address specific countries, without excluding others?By employing a two-sided model of interpreting the material, where it on the one hand is interpreted from the universal properties projected on the narrated architecture, and on the other hand from the particular ideological notions related to the same, the thesis suggests that the Swedish Institute continously relates the architecture to a West-European and American context by consistently connecting its universal properties to particular ideological notions orientated towards the West.The results underline the malleability in regard to ideological notions connected to modernist architecture. Earlier research in the Swedish context has focussed on how modernist architecture in Sweden, under the local tag "funktionalism", was established in regard to a Swedish audience as a particular Swedish architecture by relating it to a alleged continuos Swedish tradition, as well as to notions of a a progressive welfare state. By studying a similar material, though aimed towards a foreign audience, the thesis suggests that these allegations constitue an elucidatory example of how national and ideological narratives can form within the framework of technological-ideological dynamics of modernist architecture.

The following essay is named The canonization of Joan of Arc, a Church political strategy or the creation of a national symbol? Joan of Arc, the French heroine of the Hundred Years War, was canonized as late as 1920, in a process that began already in 1869. In the following essay I am trying to work out if this canonization is a work of the Vatican in order to gain popularity in France after the breakup with the state in 1905. The Catholic Church had, since the French Revolution, faced difficulties withstanding its position of power in the presence of the upcoming Secularism and Liberalism and their growing public support. The Catholic Church had been fighting for its members and at the same time fighting the new ideas of Socialism, Communism and Liberalism.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om det har skett en förändring av den geografiska koncentrationen av textil- och klädesindustrin och dess olika sektorer i EU mellan 1992 och 2001 och om produktionen är fragmenterad, d.v.s. om de olika sektorerna inom textil- och klädesindustrin är koncentrerade till skilda länder. Många studier har gjorts för att undersöka den geografiska koncentrationen av textil- och klädesindustrin som helhet, men denna uppsats gör undersökningen på en mer disaggregerad nivå. Industribaserad gini, (koncentrations-graden) och Balassa-index, (specialiseringskvoten), har beräknats för industrigrenarna inom textil- och klädesindustrin och som mått på internationell produktionsfragmentering har intra-produkthandel tagits fram för länderna i undersökningen. Slutsatsen är att den geografiska koncentrationen för de olika sektorerna och textil- och klädesindustrin som helhet har ökat endast obetydligt, men att det finns relativt stora skillnader mellan de olika industrisektorerna.

In this essay, I will look at three different Compulsory comprehensive schools in one community and I will compare final grades from students who graduated in spring 2006. I will also examine how the three schools work with students, and in what way they approach students with dyslexia/reading- and writing difficulties, so that they could reach goals set by The Swedish National Agency for Education. The aim with this essay is to show differences between schools in the same community and my question is if it is the way you approach students with dyslexia/reading- and writing difficulties that affects the student?s grades and results.The study is concentrating on three schools in one community and students with dyslexia and reading- and writing difficulties that went to those schools. I have spoken to remedial teacher at each school about how they approach students with dyslexia/reading- and writing difficulties, what kind of methods the use, how they investigate if a student is in need of special help and how they grade their students who are in need of special teaching because of their learning disabilities.

I uppsatsen undersöks marknadskoncentrationen på den svenska marknaden för inrikesflyg. Utgångspunkt är Marknadsdomstolens dom 2001:4 rörande SAS missbruk av dominerande ställning, där användning av EuroBonus-programmet för poänginsamling inrikes förbjöds. Andra bolag kan dock fortfarande använda bonusprogram. En diskussion förs rörande substitut till flyget och bonusprogrammens konkurrenseffekter behandlas. Vi utreder om SAS fortfarande var dominerande år 2007 eller om beslutet bör omprövas.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på hur aktiekurserna hos företagen som är listade på OMX i Stockholm, Köpenhamn och Helsingfors beter sig efter en större nedgång/krasch och om företagens storlek i form av börsvärde påverkar beteendet. Undersökningen sker med Gutenberg och Richters fysikaliska lag som används till att mäta förhållandet mellan jordbävningars magnitud och antalet krascher under en viss tid i en viss region. Modellens riktighet på det insamlade data som används kommer kontrolleras med hjälp av en regression och valideras med hjälp av tidigare forskning. För att rättfärdiga den ekonofysiska metod vi använder oss av, kommer vi även att studera indexavkastningarnas beskrivande statistik för att visa på att det nationalekonomiska antagandet om normalfördelning vid aktieavkastningar inte gäller. Resultatet pekar på en viss systematisk skillnad mellan hur börsvärdesmässigt stora företag beter sig jämfört mot hur små företag beter sig efter att en krasch ägt rum.

With focal point on the national directions, created by Länsstyrelsen (Swedish county administration) in cooperation with National Method support against Trafficking (NMT), this paper aims to depict the phenomena trafficking and also portray the concurrent counteracting against trafficking in Sweden that authorities exert. All involved participants in this mechanism have their particular remit and their ability to interact is hence of utmost significance.In order to fully comprehend and be able to analyze these unified operative execution-elements and processes in Sweden we also have to understand what is proceeding in the international arena. The organized crime-combine is not restrained by boundaries and continuously develop and refine methods in sexual trafficking, that has grown into an expanding multibillion industry. International counteracting is consequently a worldwide existing matter of utmost interest. Therefore we will also, in our report, present international machines such as International Organization for Migration (IOM).In regard to the proceedings in the international arena, concerning empirical and methodical techniques and information of research findings, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) occupies the leading place in the analysis.The main focus, the cornerstone of this paper, is an inquiry into the formerly relatively unknown and unexplored aspects of what happens to individuals who have been subjected to sexual trafficking in Sweden after governmental intervention implicating forced re-allocation to the country-of-origin.

Utifrån Blanchards OLG-modell för en liten öppen ekonomi med åldersberoende arbetsutbud, analyseras vad som sker med konsumtionen och den finansiella förmögenheten per capita när pensionsåldern höjs. Konsumtionen ökar när pensionsåldern höjs eftersom en högre pensionsålder betyder en högre total löneinkomst som kan användas på konsumtion, vilket ger större nytta. Sparandet kan däremot både öka och minska när pensionsåldern höjs. Incitamentet till att öka sparandet kommer från att man vill utjämna den högre konsumtionen som kommer från den ökade livsinkomsten över hela livet. Men en ökning av pensionsåldern betyder att tiden som pensionär då man ska konsumera för sina sparade tillgångar minskar, vilket minskar incitamentet för att spara.
