This examination paper is an account for the author?s work to arrange and registrate the business archive and business records of court jeweller W. A. Bolin AB from 1916 until present day, and a part of the one-year Masters Programme in Archival Science at the University of Uppsala. Problems that have been encountered are treated, as well as motivations of the decisions made during the process.

The exhaust arrangement on a Scania V8 consists of one manifold at each bank connected to a twin entry turbine (8-2-2). A study in GT-Power has shown improved performance and reduced cylinder to cylinder variations using two manifolds at each bank in combination with a single entry turbine (8-4-1). This thesis work analyses the difference in performance shown in simulation and verify it by engine test.The initial work was focused on simulation in GT-Power. Investigating how exhaust manifold volume and pulses effects the turbine efficiency and the mean effective pressure during the gas exchange. To verify GT-Power simulations four engine tests with different exhaust arrangement have been made.The results from GT-Power simulation indicate that a larger exhaust volume improve the turbine efficiency.

This report describes the master thesis project ?Weight Optimization of a Composite Chassis for a Multimodal Lightweight Vehicle? which is a part of the Master program in Naval Architecture and a part of a research project at the Centre for Naval Architecture, KTH. Demands on smart and energy efficient transport solutions are continuously increasing. In the Stockholm region the citizens are expected to increase with 25% and the road vehicles with 80% until 2030, putting high demands on the traffic system. Using a small multimodal vehicle deals with this problem and uses both the land and waterways for transportation.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate which enter- and exit barriers that exist on the banking market for small enterprises located within the region of Gotland. The reason was to examine and identify which barriers that could affect the mobility among small enterprise bank customers on the bank market. To identify the barriers, the study was carried out partly by a quantitative survey with 33 small business owners respondents located at three different concentrated small enterprise areas within the region of Gotland. And partly by qualitative interviews that were conducted with two employees at Länsförsäkringar Gotland Bank.The result indicated that the enter barrier mostly depended on the aspect that business owners of small enterprises believed that bank switching were complicated. The business owners did also consider bank switching as time demanding.

The shape and arrangement of the outdoor environment at a preschool has a critical impact on the possibilities to practice different pedagogic activities (Grahn et al.1997). At the preschool at Edwin Ahlqvists road, the employees are inspired by Reggio Emilia in their way of thinking, and they consider their outdoor environment is not suitable for the pedagogic activities they use. Reggio Emilia is a city in the north of Italy (Wallin 2001). The preschools there are famous for their pedagogy, their creativity and their democratic way of working (Dahlbech & Johansson 1986). The Reggio Emilia pedagogy is constantly renewed and developed, but with the children?s needs in focus and simultaneously with the quick changes of the modern society.

Den teknologiska utvecklingen har under de senaste decennierna fa?tt en allt sto?rre betydelse i samha?llet. Som en naturlig fo?ljd av detta har bankernas verksamhet fo?ra?ndrats, bland annat genom o?kat utbud av tekniska tja?nster och produkter. Tidigare studier pa?visar att ma?nniskans beteende har fo?ra?ndrats i takt med samha?llets utveckling och ma?ste idag va?nja sig vid att allt mer kommer att hanteras via de teknologiska distributionskanalerna.

The bank market for farmers in Sweden is dominated by Swedbank and Landshypotek. One of the most aggressive challengers is Länsförsäkringar Bank, which in 2009 had seven per cent of the Swedish bank market for farmers, but 57 per cent of all new lending. This paper deals with the problem of new banks to break into the bank market where farmers are slow in terms of change in their attitudes and loyal to their banks. The study has been carried out in cooperation with Länsförsäkringar Gävleborg which is a new actor in the banking market and thus eager to take part in the outcome of the study. This essay thus seeks to examine the attitudes farmers have against bank switching and the factors that influence their choice of bank.

Mobiltelefonin expanderar oerhört snabbt över utvecklingsvärlden i stort och har blivit något av de fattigas form av Informations- och kommunikationsteknologi (ICT). Redan idag (2008) finns fler mobiltelefonanvändare i u-länder än i i-länder. Samtidigt anser bl a SIDA och Grameen Bank att användningen av ICT utgör ett kraftfullt verktyg för ekonomisk utveckling, ett steg på väg mot ökad tillväxt och en av förutsättningarna för en minskad fattigdom.Slutkonceptet är en visualisering och förslag för att minska den digitala klyftan, vilket leder till integration och i slutändan möjlighet till minskad fattigdom, och ett förhoppningsvis rikare liv även själsligt. Arbetet är ett projekt i hållbarhetens tecken och är tänkt att fungera som inspiration och att ge ljus åt en viktig fråga, vilket jag hoppas leder till diskussion och större insikt samt visar möjligheter och en positiv framtidsvision. Arbetet kan ses som ett pedagogiskt projekt för att utforska vad som kan uppnås genom att få inspiration av och sätta fokus på realiteter i utvecklingsländer och undersöka om resultatet har potential för överföring och användning i hela världen.

The purpose to this survey is to map out the affordances available in the outdoor environment of one preschool. This has been executed through three episodes of observing children at that preschool during their outdoor play. All visible affordances has been written down and later on summarized in different themes where the most interesting meeting places in the outdoor environment at the pre-school have been described. The result of the study shows what the children at this preschool do in their outdoor environment. It also shows the importance of the arrangement of material and environment in order to be able to support childrens play.

Nyligen publicerades ett skatteupplägg, det så kallade bankupplägget, vilket innebär att ägare till kvalificerade aktier i fåmansföretag tar ett omfattande lån av en bank och tillskjuter motsvarande belopp till sitt företag som ett ovillkorat aktieägartillskott. Det ovillkorade aktieägartillskottet ökar omkostnadsbeloppet på de kvalificerade aktierna, vilket innebär att även gränsbeloppet höjs. Ett högt gränsbelopp är positivt ur fåmansföretagsägarens synvinkel eftersom utdelning och kapitalvinst upp till gränsbeloppet beskattas i inkomstlaget kapital medens överskjutande del beskattas i inkomstlaget tjänst. Kapitalvinstbeskattningen är i regel lindigare vilket innebär att den skattskyldige uppnår en skatteförmån genom erhållandet av det högre gränsbeloppet. Efter att ha företagit utdelning av allt fritt eget kapital, exklusive aktieägartillskottet likvideras företaget och allt insatt kapital utbetalas till ägaren.

This examination paper is the account for the author?s work while arranging and registrating the business archives and business records of the Herman Bergman?s Foundry in Stockholm, Sweden. It is part of the one year Masters program in Archival Science at the University of Uppsala. The records are from the beginning of the 1900s to the 1970s. Most of the business archives are from he 1940s to the 1950s.

Integration is a phenomena that occurs in all societies that experience any form of immigration. This process is dependent on how we analyze, both the groups of immigrants, and how we analyze the society in which they becoming integrated.Intersectionality is one method of analyzing this framework. By applying the categories: gender, class and race on the integration process, we get a more complex picture of the subject. Therefore we also become more able to adjust the actions and arrangement around the different questions of inte-gration.In this essay I try to explain what the intersectionality is, how it is used and how it can apply in integration as a specific subject. I also apply the intersectionality model on different policy documents from Malmö, Vellinge and Landskrona to find out if they show any awareness of this model both explicitly and implicitly..

Our thesis is conducted in collaboration with Draper Europe AB in Halmstad.The goal of the project has been to construct a baseline concept for the instaling of aprojector screen. Draper Europe AB, in the curent situation, have several kinds of fabrics and designs on their sceens and the cases they are in. Today if you select a screen you can´t chose the design and function of the sceens case.The arrangement of the components inside the cases was to be constructed so the assembler simply could move them to different cases. To make it even easier for the assembler and to save time, the desire of less component was mentioned. Another problem that needed to be solved was the mounting of the projectionscreen at the customer place.

Trust is a concept used throughout our daily lives. We give trust to friends, colleagues and strangers. We also give trust to the technical artifacts we use in our everyday lives. We must also rely on the services we use to work the way we expect them to. There is plenty of research on trust in e-commerce and online banking on website based platforms.
