?The trees importance to the street? discusses just that, the trees importance to the street. The purpose of this paper has been to examine what influence the trees have on streets. By writing about good examples of how trees can add good qualities to a street I wish to inspire to more use of trees in future city-planning. I have examined three streets in Malmö and three streets in Berlin and analyzed the trees influences there through the help of literature by three authors: Great Streets (1993) and The Boulevard Book (2002) by Allan B. Jacobs, Trees in Urban Design (1993) by Henry F.

En hårdnande marknadsbild och allt mer hårdnande konkurrenssituation ställer dagens organisationer inför större utmaningar. För att överleva måste organisationer föra en ständig kamp för att förbättra, förnya och effektivisera sina arbetsmetoder. Sedan industrialiseringen tills för endast några decennier sedan har effektivisering likställts med fragmentering och specialicering av arbetsuppgifter. Dessa metoder håller nu på att ersättas av andra metoder som bättre reflekterar de antaganden och förutsättningar som styr vårt samhälle.LSG Sky Chefs är en organisation som verkar inom flygindustrin. Detta är en bransch som sedan händelserna den 11 september och i samband med uppkomsten av lågprisflyget utsatts för stora förändringar och hårdare konkurrens.

This essay concerns the interpretation of house plans in three-aisled longhouses and hall-buildings, in Scandinavia during Iron Age. Full scale house reconstructions need a better basis of interpretations to understand the patterns of roof supporting post holes in excavated house plans. This has led to the thesis, presented here, that the layout of house plans during Iron Age is based on geometrical proportions. In order to prove this, geometric house plans were applied and compared with excavated house plans in 11different case studies, including the fortification of Fyrkat Denmark. It was found that all house plans in the case studies indicate, that the geometrical proportions 1:2, 1:3 and 2:3 of a given circle must have been used for the basic layout of the roof supporting post holes, using a compass and a straightedge.

Lidande är en naturlig och oundviklig del av det mänskliga livet. En av de mest centrala uppgifterna inom vården innebär att lindra lidande. Därmed är det aktuellt att undersöka områdets kunskapsposition. Syftet var att beskriva lidande i omvårdnadStudien genomfördes som en litteraturstudie där 15 vetenskapliga artiklar utgjorde underlaget för resultatet. Resultatet i denna studie delades in i sex tema inom omvårdnad: ?Existentiellt lidande?, ?Livslidande?, ?Sjukdomslidande?, ?Vårdlidande?, ?Den vårdande personalens upplevelser av lidande? och ?Socioemotionellt lidande?.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relation between the Big Five personality traits Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism and the five conflict styles developed by Thomas-Kilmann: Accommodating, Avoiding, Compromising, Collaborating and Competing. The participants consisted of 128 students of the Linnaeus University in Växjö. A questionnaire consisting of two parts were used for this study: Part one consist of a personality-test developed from Lewis R. Goldberg?s Big-five scale, and part two where the participant is asked to fill out Thomas-Kilmanns conflict style test.

This report is a study in voltagelevel in connection with regeneration of brake energy from the tramtype M31 in Gothenburg.In the act of braking, the tram M31 uses electrical braking where the electrical motors generates energy and if possible send it back to the overheadline, where other trams in the nearby can use this regenerated energy for its own driving force. In cases where no other energyconsumers are located in the same section, there is a resistance witch task is to convert this energy into heat. The regulation of this resistance appears to cause an increase in the voltagelevel into far too high levels.Investigations of the trams regulationequipment and its construction have been done. Further have measurements on the overheadline been performed in order to map the voltagevariations during a longer period of time.The result have been showing that the voltagelevel during regeneration often is as high as 880V-920V, more extreme values have not been observed in a large scale. The values are especially high compared to the nominal voltagelevel.

Studien berör något som från olika håll uppfattas som ett ökande problem - flickor som skär sig. Studiens syfte var att genom en kvalitativ studie med intervju som metod undersöka tre kuratorers, på tre olika ungdomsmottagningar, kunskaper och förståelse av självskadebeteende bland flickor. Studien berör också kuratorernas uppfattning om bra bemötande av dessa flickor, arbetsmetoder samt om det pågår någon preventiv verksamhet på de tre aktuella ungdomsmottagningarna.Beteendet förstås som ett symptom på en problematik som grundlagts under flickornas uppväxt och förstås då ofta vara kopplat till problematiska familjerelationer. Att skära sig uppfattas främst som ett sätt att reducera ångest, ett sätt att omvandla den psykiska smärtan till en fysisk mer konkret.Då självskadebeteende vanligen förenat med skam, är en tillåtande atmosfär och att ta flickorna på allvar är essentiellt i bra bemötande. Det finns inga klara riktlinjer för kuratorernas arbetsmetoder men grunden för kuratorernas arbete är främst psykodynamisk och kognitiv teori.

Anorexia nervosa är en vanlig ätstörning och drabbar oftast tonårstjejer. Det finns ingen förklaring till varför en person utvecklar anorexia nervosa, däremot är det en del faktorer som är vanligt förekommande. Det kan handla om framställningen av det kvinnliga och manliga idealen i samhället, men även om personens låga självkänsla och behovet av kontroll. Eftersom det är vanligast att utveckla anorexia nervosa i puberteten vill vi se vilken kunskap elevhälsovården, det vill säga skolsköterskor och kuratorer, på högstadieskolor i Malmö har. Något som vi vill undersöka är om skolorna har några förebyggande insatser gällande anorexia nervosa.

Toxoplasma gondii är en intracellulär, zoonotisk parasit med förmågan att infektera i stort sett alla varmblodiga vertebrater, medan endast kattdjur kan fungera som huvudvärd. Parasiten finns spridd hos människor och djur över hela världen. Vid symptomatisk infektion med T. gondii ses en varierande klinisk bild. Kongenitalt överförd smitta leder potentiellt till abort eller neonatal infektion.

Vad kännetecknar en bra röst? Denna studie syftar till att utröna huruvida det finns något i den akustiska talsignalen som kan säga något om vilken uppfattning lyssnaren bildar sig om talaren. I kommersiella sammanhang är sättet att förmedla viktigt för att ge lyssnaren rätt budskap och i detta är rösten ett viktigt redskap. Grunden till föreliggande studie var att låta en grupp lyssnare bedöma några olika röster samt att analysera rösterna akustiskt, varefter en jämförelse mellan resultat från lyssnarbedömning och akustisk analys gjordes.En kvinna och en man i grupperna professionella samt icke-professionella röstanvändare läste in en standardtext. Inspelningarna analyserades akustiskt och bedömdes perceptuellt av en lyssnargrupp, omfattande 10 individer utan röstprofessionell kompetens.

The aim of the present literature review was to describe and evaluate the effects and experiences within the complementary approaches such as aromatherapy, tactile massage and acupuncture amongst palliative care patients. Search through Medline (through Pub Med) database and additional manual search was conducted. In total 16 articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were reviewed. The result was presented under respectively category: aromatherapy, tactile massage and acupuncture. Physical and psychological effects as well as experiences from the treatments were also documented under the different complementary approaches.

The Go Down Arts Centre is a proposal for a new building to an existing organisation in Nairobi, Kenya. The proposal relates to the scale of the city by making a statement on a future urban path, and by welcoming the city in to the building. The proposal houses both activities affiliated to Go Down, such as studios and rehersal rooms, as well as opportunities for the visitor to meet and interact with the culture produced at Go Down, both in formal and informal settings. The building is closed to its surroundings, apart from a grand entrance towards the urban path. There, the city passes through the building to an inner courtyard, where the communication to all the rooms and activities takes place.
