Syftet med uppsatsen är att ur ett företagsperspektiv undersöka hur en linjeutvidgning påverkar varumärket samt vilka faktorer som gör att en linjeutvidgning lyckas.Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod med semistrukturerade intervjuer.Intervjuer har genomförts med marknadsdirektören för Cloetta Fazer, Sverige, en marknadschef på Leaf Sverige, en marknadschef på Kraft Foods samt med en ekonomilärare på Europaskolan i Strängnäs, med tidigare chefspositioner inom konfektyrbranschen.Vi kallar ökningen av linjeutvidgningar för en ?accelererande linjeutvidgningstrend?. Ett varumärke påverkas positivt av en linjeutvidgning när de kärnvärden varumärket står för kan föras vidare till den nya produkten. Riskerna som följer med linjeutvidgning är kannibalisering och urholkning av varumärket. Inga av företagen i studien har ett mätverktyg för att mäta kannibalisering.

This work has been made in cooperation with the municipality of Eslöv and the inventory area is a part of the deepening of the municipality plan of east Eslöv. The aim of the work is to test the principle of balance in the overall planning. Later in the detailed planning process a more detailed calculation is made and a suggestion of suitable measures for compensation is made. Then the method with green area factors can be used. The goal is to balance the negative influence on the environment from the planned impacts to gain a sustainable development of the city. The principle of balance means that the one responsible for the development also has to compensate for the negative impacts on nature and landscape that comes with the development.

Inspired by how to sketch a light cone from a flashlight in a comic I wanted to create an armature carried only by its own light cone. To manage this challenge I sketched in an architectural and sculptural way, where I chose to ignore the function of the lamp as long as possible.As a result I developed an armature with a stunning shape, with an illusion that it was carried by its own light cone. It could be hanged on a wall, placed on a table, pushed against a ceiling or standing on the floor.Depending of its size the light cone from the light source lightens up the surface and draws attention to the otherwise forgotten wallpaper or the undisposed statue in the darkness of the city..

The purpose of this study is to facilitate sustainable building by the use of BIM. The goal is to determine which aspects of sustainable building, which can be analyzed mainly with BIM tools, but also other aids.The study is based on literature studies and interviews. The literature review examines aspects important for sustainable building by studying environmental certification systems applicable in Sweden, as well as the BIM tools available on the market to analyze these aspects. The literature also includes the concepts of BIM and sustainability in order to provide a clearer view of its meaning. The interviews have brought the study's overall understanding of the industry and guidance on the subject.The results are presented in a table, where the aspects relevant to sustainable building are listed.

I have always been told that form follows function. But does it have to be that way? I decided to see it  from another angle.Kinesics is a term form non verbal komunication. In my thesis project I have been working with body language in furniture.  I believe that furniture, just like us, has an expression and a character. We often tend to desccribe furniture with the same words as we describe people, for example: "A relaxed chair" or "a cocky table".

When Norway spruce is planted with large initial spacing and grows on highly productive sites in southern Sweden, a high proportion of the stems gets broad annual rings. The thinning programme carried out at the estate of Trolleholm aims to extract stems with too broad ring width. The 3-4 first thinnings are carried out as thinning from above, where only the thickest trees are removed. The internal distance may not fall below 5-7 meters depending on the number of thinning (short distance in young stands). The aim of this study was to examine the thinning model that is carried out at the estate of Trolleholm. A volume table is calculated to describe the model, and data is collected on temporary plots.

Det ha?r examensarbetet kretsar kring mina experiment med parkettla?ggningstekniker, och mina fo?rso?k att bygga en mo?bel som ser ut som att den har tagits o?ver av ett mo?nster eller en struktur. En o?verga?ng till na?gonting mer skulpturalt. Jag anva?nder tra?bitar som blivit o?ver fra?n andra projekt fo?r att tillverka dessa dekorationer.

Som ett led i de åtaganden som ställs på de länder som har undertecknat Kyotoprotokolletmåste landvisa kolbudgetar fastställas. För att fastlägga bra kolbudgetar ärdet viktigt att kunna göra bra uppskattningar av kolmängden inom olika geografiskaområden. Detta dels för att kunna uppskatta befintliga mängder och dels för att kunnapåvisa förändringar över tiden.Denna studie hade som huvudmål att uppskatta kolmängden i trädform inom ett 28,3hektar stort, hundraårigt skogsområde vid Norunda i Uppland. Den metod somanvändes medför relativt låga krav på utrustning och förkunskaper. Metoden byggerpå att trädens brösthöjdsdiameter, höjd och kronlängd mäts in inom ett antalmätplottar.

This report deals with hard surfaces and the factors which are behind the criteria for dimensioning, also dependent on the level, or volume, of traffic. A test was made on slabs of two kinds of natural stone. This was made to see if the values that were reached for breakload was transferable to the same tables that the concrete industry is using for surface dimensions of slabs and paving stones. The test showed very high values and the result, together with the written study, led to the author?s suggestion for a classification table where slabs of natural stone were divided in to different classes depending on traffic, thickness and durability..

This pilot study examined whether treatment with Vortex Process Technology (VPT) of the irrigation water used on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants had any effect on plant growth. In a block experiment, with two blocks comprising 12 vases containing 1 L water and two tomato plantlets, treatment in which, nutrient solution was based on Vortex-treated water was compared with an control using untreated water. All vases were kept in a static aerated culture system in a daylight chamber for four weeks. The results showed that the effect of the two blocks exceeded the effect of vortex treatment in terms of leaf area and weight of fresh and dry matter. Plant height, stem width and internodal length were significantly different in tomato plants grown in Vortex-processed water compared with the untreated control.

Balcony Art is an idea for a new kind of furniture group for those who have limited space on their balcony. This report will discuss conceptual and part of primary construction of the chair and table for use on balconies, how the products developed from an idea to primary, preliminary products.In the conceptual design part, the report will discuss how product requirements and specifications are developed and how these controls the design.In the primary construction, the report will discuss the products journey from sketch to functional CAD models and how the products of individual parts are designed and how the durability calculations affect the design..

Projektet har gått ut på att göra ett flexibelt bord som ska kunna gå att förändra mellan högt och lågt och mellan olika storlekar på bordsskivan. Detta som en funktionell aspekt av föränderlighet men jag ville även införliva en emotionell föränderlighet. Jag vill att användaren, på ett handgripligt sätt, ska kunna uttrycka sig själv i bordet. Min intention är att man, genom att göra sitt eget unika bord, skapar ett starkare band mellan artefakt och dess användare. Detta som ett led i en hållbar utveckling så att produkterna vi äger kan brukas längre och motverka den ohållbara så kallade slit-och-slängkulturen..
