Parallella världar : Pedagog i en segregerad förort
In my essay, I write about the work at a pre-school in a segregated suburb. I begin my essay with examples from my workday. In one case, it is about Sara, playing games where other children are excluded and she also exhibits a power game towards me. In the second example, it is about how a group of children conspire and expose both themselves and others for destructive conspiracy patterns. When I write down what happens in the group of children at my pre-school, I see patterns reminiscent of destructive gangs.
ATACQ i produktion - En studie i felåterföringssystemet ATACQ för Volvo Personvagnar AB
The main purpose of this bachelor thesis is to create a product in the form of a database that can be used for cost estimates of equipment within bio refineries. Through interviews and literature searches the key components and their costs were identified. The database was constructed in Microsoft Excel with different tabs for different categories of components; these tabs are further divided into three parts: one part with costs, one part with calculations and an information part. Most of the part with costs contains the expenses found in scientific papers during the literature study, the calculating part converts different capacities according to user preferences and the currency to euro (?) from 2010 and the information part consists of references and information about what is included in the cost.The database is a good tool for making cost estimates for bio refineries.
Utveckling av en HBV/PULS-model med sammanfogade markfuktighets- och responsrutiner
Soil properties affect the chemical composition of soil water. When studying transport of chemical substances through a basin, it is therefore important to know from which soil layer the main part of the runoff is generated. The aim of this study is to develop an HBV/PULSE model with merged soil moisture and response routines, which generates good approximations of groundwater levels. It should be possible to extend the model to simulate transport of substances and take into account which soil layer the groundwater level is currently in. The hydrological version of HBV/PULSE is used since there is no need to account for pH or alcalinity at this stage.
Effektiviteten i pappersindustrin: En studie över effektiviteten och dess drivkrafter för pappersindustrin i 12 europeiska länder.
Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera den tekniska effektiviteten och dessförklaringsfaktorer för den europeiska och svenska pappersindustrin. Paneldata på branschnivå för 12 länder under tidsperioden 2002-2009 används för att i ett första steg med hjälp av Data envelopment analysis (DEA) mäta graden av effektivitet. I ett andra steg förklaras variationen i effektivitet mellan de olika ländernas pappersindustrier med hjälp av en Tobit-regression. Studien avgränsar sig till den rent tekniska effektiviteten där arbetskraft, kapital, energi och olika material, nödvändiga vid pappersproduktion, använts som insatsvaror. Som förklaringsfaktorerna till skillnader i effektivitet har fyra variabler använts; Forskning och utvecklings utgifter (FoU), antal anställda inom FoU anställda, energiskattenivå och ekonomisk frihet.Resultaten från studiens första steg visar på skillnader i effektivitet mellan de olika länderna.
Kära dagbok. Hur går det till när man tar guld? : Innehållsanalys av Spendrups reklamkampanj
This is a case study of the advertising campaign ?Guld till alla? (Gold to Everyone) embarked upon by Spendrups Bryggeri AB in a bid to promote Norrlands Guld, during the period 2004. The approach used by Spendrups will be compared with theories about communication planning, communication strategies, target group definition and how to create effective advertising. The main purpose of the comparison is to find which central elements that made the campaign successful. The method we have chosen to use is an explanative content analysis with influences from the dialogue analyse.?Guld till alla? was suppose to be an massive and coherent campaign which was to be integrated with large sports events, such as the Ice Hockey World Championship, UEFA European Championship and the Summer Olympic Games, that all took place the year 2004.

Optimization of Burner Kiln 7, Cementa Slite
In this report focus is put on the combustion process at a cement plant. Combustion is the
heart of the cement making process and absolutely crucial to have under full control and well
optimized.
The fuel is put into the process through a burner pipe and this burner pipe is modified to
reach a more efficient combustion. The primary target is to enable burning of heterogeneous
alternative fuels and increase the production level. Other positive effects from this type of
optimization is lowered specific fuel consumption and lowered CO2 emissions.
A redundant burner is chosen for the project and overall the project steps are the following:
1. Installing a Jet air nozzle ring in a way so it can move both axially and radially due to
temperature changes.
2.
Freshwater pearl mussel as indicators of Swedish streams - a comparison between freshwater pearl mussel and biological quality elements
The freshwater pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera) is a large freshwater mussel. Because of its sensitivity to human impact, such as eutrophication, acidification and alterations of hydromorphology, the species is considered as a robust indicator of stream water quality and biodiversity. Moreover, due to the species complex life cycle, including a larval stage on the gills of salmon and trout, and sensitivity of early life stages, regeneration is often used as an indicator. The freshwater pearl mussel is also used in the expert judgement of status classification of benthic invertebrates according to the European Water Framework Directive.
The purpose of this study was to gain a deeper understanding of the freshwater pearl mussel as an indicator for Swedish streams. It was made with two types of
association analyses.

Tickor på död ved
I dag råder det brist på död ved i Sveriges skogar. Detta på grund av det intensiva skogsbruket där man kalhugger och plockar bort all liggande ved. Dock är det viktigt med många döda träd i olika nedbrytningsstadier för många skogslevande arter. Svenska skogar har få urskogar där naturliga avdödningsprocesser av träd får ske och därför minskar den biologiska mångfalden i skogen. Tre arter som endast trivs i naturskog är tickorna ullticka, Phellinus ferrugineofuscus, gränsticka, Phellinus nigrolimitatus och vedticka, Phellinus viticola.
Häxprocesser i Gävle och Ockelbo på 1600-talet
In this C-thesis, I investigate the sudden outbreak of the Swedish witch-hunts during the 17th century, mainly focusing on Gävle and Ockelbo in Gästrikland.To show the extension of the Swedish witch-hunts, I have included an introductory part of the thesis, where this is described. Another important part of the thesis is the one about views upon women and the functions of their bodies, which had to do with female sexuality. Women were indeed considered a threat, by men in powerful positions, and very often it was sheriffs, judges, commanders and governors who most strongly claimed this.People believed that the witches went to Blåkulla, which could be practically anywhere. It could be a mountain, an open area, a rock or a heath. It seems, however, to have been situated far north.My investigation mainly concerns the witch-hunts in Ockelbo and Gävle.

Marknadsföring av en svårvärderad tjänst : En studie av tjänsten Homestyling
Tjänster, vare sig etablerade eller nya, brottas ofta med problemet att vara svårvärderade. Detta gäller även tjänsten homestyling som är en form av inredningstjänst. Homestylingens syfte är att ställa i ordning en bostad för att framhäva dess bästa egenskaper inför en försäljning. Detta kan göras genom estetiska lyft med rekvisita och möblemang. Det finns olika nivåer på tjänsten och dessa kan variera alltifrån en muntlig konsultation, där homestylisten instruerar säljaren av bostaden om vad som behöver göras, till en total möblering där homestylingföretaget sköter hela lyftet av bostaden åt säljaren.
Effekt av olika kvävegödselmedel på utvecklingen av klumprotsjuka i salladskål (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis)
The price trend on rapeseed the latest years has led to an increasing interest to grow the crop among many farmers in Sweden. The price trend has resulted in more than a doubling of the oilseed area since the early 2000s. For many farmers it is an advantage to increase cultivation of rapeseed because of the high proportion of cereals in the crop rotation on many farms, but it is not just benefits. The risk of the fields being infected by clubroot increases within frequent rapeseed cultivation and it often leads to subtantial economic losses. Clubroot is caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae that is a soilborne pathogen in genus Protozoa and its resting spores can be found in the soil for up to 18 years.
