This master thesis is one part of a project, called ?StabSim?, with the purpose to develop a simulation model for the align and Stabilisation system in main battle tank 122. The origin of this project is that it should be possible to make control analysis without risking any hardware. Besides that it will be easy to change components in order to investigate the behaviour of the system. The report includes modelling of tower and weapon mechanics and also the modelling of the synchronous motors, which control these.

This master thesis holds a modelling in Simulink for a physical model of a main battletank tower, a three-phase induction motor and some mechanics. The aim of this work is to connect an earlier project at AerotechTelub, named StabSim to another called Eldris. In StabSim it has been made a Simulink model of the align and Stabilisation system in a main battle tank 122 and in Eldris it has been build a physical model of a main battle tank tower. In this thesis the models that differs between Eldris and a real tower is changed in StabSim, and the parts that only exist in Eldris is added, for example a torque generating system which purpose is to make the model to behave like a real tower in control application, although it only has half the inertia as a real tower. The thesis even includes proposing a calculation of the torque that the torque generating system will actuate at the model..

System based models of plants rely on descriptions and assigned functions of genes, and currently 50% of the genes in Arabidopsis thaliana has either no assigned function or a function based on homology only. Mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK's) are key players in cell signalling and are conserved among eukaryotes, though their targets are highly diverse. A recent study has described a small Arabidopsis protein (80), without homology to any described protein, as a phosphorylation target of the MAPK's MPK3/6. Further work established ?-glucan phosphorylase (PHS) as interacting with 80 and described a delayed senescence phenotype for 80 knock-out plants.

In this thesis I discuss about economical and political transition in countries that is consecutively being induced by influential external actors. Looking closer on the role of the EU as a dynamic transitional force, with the intention of examining to what extent the EU can pursuit its interest and modify the economical as well as the political structures of transition countries. With relations to four transition states on the Western Balkans, more precise Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia-Montenegro and Macedonia (FYROM), I have examined the influential position of the EU. Another feature that is discussed is the approach of the EU and the cause of it in respect to the Western Balkans. Since the end of the crises in Kosovo the EU was given the leading roll in stabilizing and reconstructing the Western Balkans.

I den ha?r uppsatsen har vi underso?kt hur trottoarens materiella ut- formning pa?verkar uppkomsten av mellanrum. Mellanrum a?r ett ba?de tidsligt och rumsligt fenomen som kan uppsta? i ett dynamiskt publikt rum. Vi har observerat fyra trottoarer inom Malmo?s stadska?rna och under- so?kt hur materiella faktorer pa? och vid trottoaren pa?verkar vilka aktivite- ter som a?ger rum pa? platsen. Uppsatsens o?vergripande forskningsfra?ga a?r: Hur pa?verkar trottoa- rens materiella utformning uppkomsten av mellanrum? Under observationerna har vi underso?kt: Vilka materiella egen- skaper finns pa? trottoaren och hur pa?verkar de den territoriella komplexi- teten? samt Vilka omgivande faktorer ger upphov till en territoriell kom- plexitet pa? trottoaren? Syftet med uppsatsen a?r att lyfta fram trottoaren som ett viktigt pu- blikt rum da?r det ofo?rutsa?gbara kan ta plats. Ett av uppsatsens nyckelbegrepp a?r territoriell komplexitet [Ka?r- rholm 2004, 2012] da? chansen att mellanrum uppsta?r a?r som sto?rst pa? plat- ser med ho?g territoriell komplexitet. Va?ra teoretiska utga?ngspunkter utgo?rs av Mattias Ka?rrholms ter- ritorialitetsbegrepp [2004] och stabiliseringsprocesser [2012] samt Emma Nilssons diskussion kring materiell figur och rumskategorier [2010]. Kulturhistoriska sto?d har vi ha?mtat fra?n Anastasia Loukaitou- Sideris & Renia Ehrenfeucht [2009] som bland annat skildrar en va?xande privatisering och uto?kand kontroll av stadens publika rum. En slutsats a?r att mellanrum kan liknas vid territoriell taktik och app- ropriation som sker pa? en plats da?r anva?ndandet av platsen inte sto?ds av den territoriella strategin..

SammandragStudien omfattar ämnesområdena operativ miljö i instabila stater, tillsammans med militär operativ och taktisk logistik. Eftersom den operativa miljön och också syftet med det militära maktmedlet i viktiga avseenden är särskiljande vid stabiliseringsoperationer, i jämförelse med reguljär krigföring, innebär detta att även anpassningsbehoven för logistiken förändras.Syftet med studien är att beskriva och analysera hur logistik kan utformas vid stabiliseringsoperationer, för att därefter teoretiskt bidra till en logistik som är anpassad för de generiska dragen i denna typ av operativ miljö.Empirin till studien är framtagen från västerländska operativa och taktiska stabiliseringsdoktriner och teorin är hämtad från Moshe Kress Operational Logistics. Analysen genomförs med ett logistiksystems operationaliserade kriterier, och redovisar de framträdande anpassningsbehoven för varje skede i operationen.Resultatet visar att det framträdande behovet är att säkerställa kontinuitet i flödet, vilket förutsätter operativ flexibilitet. Undantaget är Secure-skedet där tillgänglighet, som i sin tur förutsätter överlevnadsförmåga, är det framträdande för att optimera logistiksystemet. En viktig slutsats är att Hold-skedet sannolikt innebär störst behov av anpassning och kapacitet i ett operativt logistiksystem, sett till operationen som helhet.Nyckelord: Stabiliseringsoperation, operativ miljö, logistik, Comprehensive Approach Antal ord: 17967 (18192).

The purpose of this study is to analyze how the parties (USA, Great Britain, UN and the European Union) legitimize their intervention in Bosnia-Herzegovina as seen from without the conceptions of sovereignty and intervention. USA and the UN have legitimized their intervention on security reasons. The American president, George W. Bush, claimed that democracies never engage in war with each other and that democracies were prosperous just because they were democracies. According to the president, that is why it is important to democratise the whole Balkan region to protect the international community from terrorism which grows in unstable and undemocratic states.

Mine waste from Ljusnarsbergsfältet in Kopparberg, Sweden, is considered to constitute a great risk for human health and the surrounding environment. Some of the waste rock consists of sulphide minerals. When sulphide minerals come into contact with dissolved oxygen and precipitation, oxidation may occur resulting in acid mine drainage (AMD) and the release of heavy metals. The purpose of this study has been to characterise the waste material and try to chemically stabilize the waste rock with a mixture of sewage sludge and calcium carbonate. The drawback of using organic matter is the risk that dissolved organic matter can act as a complexing agent for heavy metals and in this way increase their mobility.
