In this thesis you will be able tofollow the design work of a drumtest. A tool that by having a rotatingdrum with equally positioned obstacleswill simulate the conditions a mountainbike rim will pass through.Initially there is a specification ofsome parameters and requirements thatthe design had to fulfill. There is alsosome brief background information aboutwhy a drum test is required for abicycle rim manufacturers and about thecompany Innolite Design AB that thisthesis is done for. After that itfollows an extract from conceptgeneration with the chosen concepts andsolutions but also some of the conceptsthat were not chosen.The thesis also contain a part where thereader cangain a deeper understanding of how thedesign works as well as some moredetailed facts about how the choice ofmaterials, their thicknesses, etc. havebeen made.

Bakgrund: Diabetes mellitus typ 2 fo?rva?ntas o?ka drastiskt de kommande a?ren. Fo?r att uppna? fo?ra?ndring beho?ver personerna fa? insikt och fo?rsta?else fo?r sambandet mellan delar i egenva?rd. Empowerment har visat sig vara av betydelse fo?r att uppna? egenkontroll och sja?lvsta?ndighet i egenva?rd.Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva effekten av empowerment pa? egenva?rd hos personer med diabetes mellitus typ 2.Metod: En litteraturo?versikt har genomfo?rts baserad pa? vetenskapliga artiklar med kvantitativ design och analyserades enligt Fribergs trestegsmodell.Resultat: Resultatet a?r en sammansta?llning av totalt tio artiklar besta?ende av ett sjukdoms- specifikt- eller patientdrivet program inneha?llande empowermentinterventioner.

Den vanligast förekommande sjukdomen hos unga kalvar med infektiös orsak i Sverige är diarré. Enterit kan leda till uttorkning, acidos, rubbningar i elektrolytbalansen och i värsta fall dödsfall. Snabbt insatt behandling är avgörande. Till kalvar med fungerande digestionssystem rekommenderas i första hand behandling med oral vätsketerapi. Endast lite forskning har utförts om hur kalvar helst dricker sitt vatten.

At present Getinge can offer a new generation of trolleys that they produced in 2011. The trolley used to Getinge various autoclaves and has the primary task to help the user/sterilization personnel to transport shelves or baskets, with or without cargo, from a packing table to the autoclave. The purpose of this thesis has been to develop a primary solution how the docking process between Getinge trolleys and autoclaves can be improved. The work has in most part followed Fredy Olsson principle and primary construction method. The work has included product research, study visit and development of a requirements specification, to satisfy Getinge, their clients and circumvention products requirements.

Integration policies have failed to make diversity into anything more than occupying the same physical space. People of different cultural background still do not share their lives to any real extent. Attempts made within planning and landscape architecture to catalyst the integration process have mainly been focused on structural measures, such as residential policies. As for outdoor environments, non-verbal casual encounters in the shape of crossing paths are assumed to lie at the heart of urban social integration.The aim of the thesis is to question this assumption and, as the thesis will show, there is literature supporting this aim. Looking at the works of Gordon Allport, Lewis Coser and some of their followers, I find intercultural contact to require more complex ways of interaction in order to reduce prejudice and to generate tolerance and understanding.

By using modern methods of casting concrete, cast in place can get more effective and industrialized. A modern method is self compacting concrete. By using this type of concrete, advantages like improved working environment and rationalized construction can be reached. Because the concrete doesn?t need to be vibrated, the amount of staff on site and the noise can be reduced.

Animal welfare can be measured in several different ways; for example by using animal-based measurements. It has been shown that register data from the Swedish Official Milk Recording Scheme can be helpful when identifying herds at risk of having poor animal welfare, which led to a development of the advisory service of ?Ask the Cow? and the web report ?Animal Welfare Signals?. The aim of this project was to find out if register data from ?Animal Welfare Signals? can be used as a screening tool for detecting herds at risk of having poor animal welfare and in need of an ?Ask the Cow?.

Ambitionen med detta gestaltande examensarbete var att utforma ett adekvat läromedel för teckning som är väl förankrat i Läroplanen för grundskolan förskoleklassen och fritidshemmets 2011 (Lgr 11) kursplan för Bild i högstadiet. Detta söktes uppnås genom en studie av tidigare relevant forskning och genom ett test av det läromedel, Hjälp! Jag Tecknar, som producerades i och med den gestaltande processen. Arbetet kan sägas vara uppdelat i två delar, å ena sidan utvecklingen av ett läromedel och å andra sidan ett test av samma läromedel. Testet genomfördes genom en frivillig kursverksamhet med barn och ungdomar som kunde tänka sig att deltaga i utvecklingen av läromedlet. Resultatet visar främst på möjligheter med Hjälp! Jag Tecknar och hur boken skulle kunna motarbeta, framförallt, inaktivitet och underlätta för en läsare att just teckna.

The aim of this study was to analyze the assessment of the national tests seen from the teacher?s perspective. The national tests are performed in the Swedish school, classes 3, 5, 9, and the upper secondary school (gymnasiet). There has been an ongoing discussion regarding assessment and grading for a long time and it is of high interest now more than ever. The last control assessment done in 2009 by the department of school inspections on the order of the Swedish government, showed big differences between the assessments done by the teachers, and the assessments completed by the department of school inspections.

The purpose of the study was to investigate, through an experiment, if positive mood promotes creativity and flexible thinking. Participants were a total of 93 college students. The main hypothesis was that subjects induced with positive mood would perform better than subjects induced with negative mood, at a test reflecting creativity. To further explore the implications of priming (subliminal manipulated moods), a neutral control group was included. The cognitive test used in the study was Duncker´s The Candle Problem, a test which aims to get the subjects to apply flexible and creative thinking.

This study has been conducted in order to determine the existence of predictability for the Stockholm stock exchange. With this purpose the random walk theory has been raised against the theory of mean reversion in order to determine which theory is the most substantial. Data has been collected from Nasdaq OMX Nordic and furtherly been processed using the statistical software EViews. Swedish listed companies? daily share values between 2000-2014 have been analyzed using two tests; an Augmented Dickey Fuller test and a Variance Ratio test.

Inför år 2005 infördes nya regler för hur goodwill i företag ska hanteras. Detta ställer nya krav på hur företag ska hantera goodwill, men detta innebär också nya problem och gransknings-möjligheter för en revisor. Uppsatsen syftar till att lyfta fram svårigheterna för en revisor när denne ska granska ett av företagets gjorda impairment -test av goodwill och vilka medel som den har till sitt förfogande för att genomför granskningen. Studien grundar sig på intervjuer med revisorer och branschorganisationer. En revisor är styrd av lagar och redovisningsprinci-per när denne ska granska ett företag men revisorn är också beroende av den information som kommer ifrån företaget.

Det här är en studie i om bilder i dataspel kan förändra uppfattningen om antalet ljudsekvenser som spelas upp. Faktorerna som har ändrats i varje test är förhållandena mellan antalet ljudsekvenser och antalet bildobjekt som presenteras. Flera olika ljud skapades till undersökningen, som skiljde sig i karaktär i syfte av att ge mer nyanserade resultat. 20 personer gjorde test där de fick lyssna på ljud med och utan koppling till bilder. De blev sedan tillfrågade hur många ljudkällor de kunde höra.
