Karlstad Vision 100 000 och dess implementering för Karlstads Elnät AB 2011-2015
The town of Karlstad has a long term project called Vision 100 000 which aim is to increase the population towards 100 000 inhabitants. This will of course put a strain for the town?s energy distribution grid. This is a work about trying to predict the grids power usage would be for the next five years if the city building plan is finalized. Those predictions are mainly going to be done through calculations with a database program called Facilplus and by checking the measured history of power usage per hour on certain selected customers by the program CustCom.
En vision om Enhetsskolans återkomst
I have taught pupils in several schools in eighth and ninth grade in ?weak? groups in mathematics. Most of them seemed to possess potential, but lacked motivation. Even though I tried several pedagogical methods, these approaches failed to engage the students. This prompted thoughts that this may reflect a broader structural problem about the organisation of education in Sweden.
Myten om partnerskapet: Om institutioner, rationaliserade myter och regionala tillväxtprogram
The overarching goal of this paper is to explain the intensive occurrence of partnerships ? regarded as a specific organizational structure ? in the formulation and implementation of Regional Growth Programs.By using theoretical concepts from new institutionalism, the paper tries to examine the explanatory capacity of this theory in the specific case of partnerships. The basis is a skeptical stance towards the conventional interpretation that views partnerships as rational organizational tools. Hence, the purpose of the paper is also to compare our own institutional explanation with the conventional.The paper finds that the occurrence of partnerships can be understood as the effect of an intensive institutional pressure. The government has, in what we regard as the institution for regional development, prescribed the partnership as a rational solution ? a rationalized myth - to the regional growth problem.
Framtidens kongresshus : Stadsbyggnadsvisionen i Jönköping
Since a couple of decades the community of Jönköping has worked out an urban vision of how the city should be appropriated expanded. The prospect extends to around year 2040 and deals with the area south of lake Munksjön in Jönköping, Sweden. Today there is a proposal of how this would look like and what main public functions that should be located there. One issue in the so-called urban vision 2.0 indicates a congressional building. This report describes how such an object can be designed according to the urban vision conditions.The work is focused on three main themes;* Architectural concept and a modern form of expression.* A functional attractive congress building in a new planned town centre.* General concept of a realistic structure system that meet the spatial and architectural possibilities.Various concepts in the meeting industry and in the architecture field are identified in order to understand the concepts and ideas with today´s congress buildings.
A Green Belt of synergies : a study on the implementation of a contemporary Green Belt
The prevailing urban migration is a worldwide process. This results in growing cities and a diminishing proportion of people living in the countryside. As the urbanization continues a large amount of the world?s population is expected to live in urban settlements of informal character by 2050. Green Belt has for many years been used to control urban growth and to secure the sustention of larger green areas around towns and cities.
Möjligheter, behov och strategi för företagsetableringar inom High Voltage Valley
The structure of the thesis is based on opportunities to attract businesses to the region, the need of establishments in the region and benchmarking with establishment strategies of other cluster initiatives. The identified opportunities are the local business relationship with ABB, the prerequisites of life quality in the region and the availability of financial support. Further on has a number of opportunities to be developed been identified; diversification of the existing businesses, an expansion of the cooperation with universities and to simplify the contact with local authorities. Challenges that HVV is facing is: creating a more dynamic labor market, secure long-term labor supply, spread the image of the brand HVV and finally putting HVVs geographic scope. Two of the identified needs of establishments are strategically important: to establish a third-party logistician and commercializing systems for distributed generation and energy storage.
Energisparläge i automationsindustrin : Potential för att minska tomgångsförluster med industriella styrsystem
Former studies have shown that a considerable part of industries? energy usage can stem from idle times in the production. This thesis, carried out at Siemens Industry sector, evaluates the potential for using the control system to automatically put machines into energy saving mode during idle times. The main part of the thesis consists of a case study performed on machine tools at a Scania production site in Södertälje. Through load measurements the potential for energy savings was determined.The results show that there is a great potential for energy savings during idle times at the site.
Fackförbunden och livslångt lärande : Kritisk analys av livslångt lärande ur ett fackligt perspektiv
Lifelong learning (LLL), a concept dating back to the 1920s, is much used both by the OECD, UNESCO and the EU. But while intergovernmental think-tanks and supranational organisations often use the term in a positive sense, many (not least scholars) are critical of the term. The critique either deals with the lack of a universal definition, that the implicit responsibility for LLL has shifted onto the individual, or that the meaning of the term has shifted from a humanistic one linked to the personal development and a better society to a neoliberal one that involves growth, competition, globalisation and human capital theory. This study is based on interviews with nine trade union representatives on their understandings of lifelong learning. The results showed that while LLL was positively viewed by most, there was virtually no communication vis-à-vis members on the topic, most trade unions have no policy regarding LLL, and responses from representatives were sometimes self-conflicting..
Aurora - Technology made to make things easier
Det började faktiskt redan hösten 2004, när jag satt och arbetade med ett av de
otaliga projekt man gör under sin skolgång. Projektet gick ut på att skapa en
hemsida med en digital katalog, och voilá, där föddes idén.
Sedan fortsatte jag att fundera, vända och vrida på idén, ett system för att
skapa digitala kataloger och mindre presentationer som vemsomhelst skulle kunna
använda. Just detta att inte exkludera de som inte kan ?Flash? från de som
skall kunna redigera systemet har varit en av mina stora grundpelare, ett slags
digital demokratitanke.
För att skapa systemet har jag använt ?Macromedia Flash MX? och dess inbyggda
programmeringsspråk ?ActionScript?. Programmeringsspråket är inte ursprungligen
tänkt att användas för att göra system, men jag tycker personligen att jag
lyckats bevisa att det fungerar även för det ändamålet.
Gestaltningsförslag för Norbyvreten : från kvarterspark till stadsdelspark
The prevailing food and energy crisis of the world, due to the declining reserves of fossil energy and a never ending rise of consumption, forces us to look into new fields to supply our energy demand. The boom of bio energy is criticized, as food crops are used to provide biodiesel and ethanol and the volumes are ridiculously small to supply world demand. Algae are one of the world?s oldest life forms and exist in many different phyla, providing a great variety to choose from, for different purposes. Cultivating microalgae offer a way to produce energy at great volumes without competing with food production and at the same time the algae offer a way to use our expensive nutrients in a more efficient way, besides this the algae are carbon dioxide neutral since their carbon source can be supplied by the atmosphere and the additional energy required can be supplied by algal oil or other renewable sources.
Hur stora är forierna/tropierna hos hjälpsökande i Bolivia? : En studie utförd under en resa med Vision for all
Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur stora forierna och tropierna är hos de människor som söker hjälp för sin syn hos Vision for all i Bolivia.Metod: En enkel subjektiv refraktion utfördes binokulärt. Efter utprovad korrektion gjordes ett covertest på avstånd för att se om patienten hade någon fori eller tropi. Om någon fori eller tropi upptäcktes mättes denna upp med ett prismacovertest.Resultat: Av 1118 undersökta personer var det 58 som hade en fori som mättes upp. 9 personer hade någon form av tropi och 8 av tropierna mättes upp. 52 av forierna var exofori och 6 var esofori.
Utveckling av ett styrsystem för strategi och vision
Ämnesfördjupande arbete i företagsekonomi, Ekonomihögskolan vid Linneuniversitet, Ekonomistyrning, 2FE13E:3, VT 11Författare:Daniel Gustafsson & Emely ForsbergHandledare:Anders JerrelingFöretagets kontaktperson:Thomas JohanssonTitel:Utveckling av styrsystem för strategi och vision:En fallstudie på Ekbacka AB Bakgrund och problem:För att effektivt kunna styra en verksamhet krävs ett så kallat management control system, vilket är en process där företagsledare påverkar och stödjer sina anställda att implementera företagets strategier i arbetet. Ekbacka AB har i dagsläget inte något konkrets styrsystem för detta, vilket är ett problem då inte alla inom verksamheten är medvetna om strategin och visionen. Det är extra viktigt att sjukvårdsorganisationer som Ekbacka AB riktar uppmärksamheten mot icke finansiella perspektiv såsom patienter, medarbetare och processer. Problemet i denna studie blir därmed hur ett styrsystem kan se ut som uppfyller Ekbackas behov av att implementera strategi och vision i hela verksamheten.Syfte:Syftet med detta projekt är att utforma ett förslag till styrsystem för Ekbacka AB.Metod:Studien har genomförts genom en kvalitativ fallstudie och det empiriska materialet har samlats in med hjälp av semi ? strukturerade intervjuer.
Förekomst och grad av osteokondros i distala radius och ulna hos konventionellt och KRAV-uppfödda slaktsvin :
The occurrence and degree of osteochondrosis was studied in 64 pigs raised in conventional systems (45) or organically according to KRAVs principles (19). In this blind study the growth plates of distal radius and ulna were examined macroscopically and radiologically searching for pathological lesions. One significant difference was shown in this study. Conventionally raised pigs diagnosed with osteochondrosis had more severe lesions in the distal growth plate of radius and ulna than the corresponding group of pigs raised organically. No significant difference was shown between the groups when all pigs were included.

Fertilization in Eucalyptus urophylla plantations in Guangxi, southern China
StoraEnso decided in year 2002 to build a pulp mill in the province of Guangxi, southernChina, and also establish eucalyptus plantations to provide it with raw material. By 2010StoraEnso controls about 90 000 of planned 120 000 ha, out of 75 000 ha is already plantedwith Eucalyptus.By using better genetic material, improve the tending, selecting the sites more careful and byusing a proper fertilization regime StoraEnso hopes to increase the mean annual incrementfrom today?s 25 m3/ha, on bark, to 35 m3/ha. This study is one part in this work to increase themean annual increment in the plantation.This master thesis is the forth in a series, that has followed up a fertilization trial that startedin spring 2006 when the trial was laid out and treatments decided. The aim with the trial is toexamine the production potential of Eucalyptus urophylla in Guangxi, southern China.
Överlevnad och tillväxt för nyplantersade barrots- och täckrotsplantor : en studie av 42 bestånd i södra Sverige
The choice between bare-rooted and containerized seedlings in southern Sweden affects
the investment costs as well as growth and survival. It is important to take these differences
into account when choosing seedling type for reforestation. The most important
differences between the two seedling-types is that bare-rooted seedlings has open root
systems whereas the roots of containerized seedlings are grown in a container which may
contain water and nutrients that are available for the seedling during the first period after
planting. Moreover, bare-rooted seedlings are often older which results in thicker stembase
and better resistance to attacks of pine-weevil (Hylobius abietis).
In order to study differences in survival and growth between bare-rooted and containerized
seedlings a survey study of newly planted clearcuts in south-western Sweden was
made. In the study tree seedling types was included, one bare-rooted and two containerized
with different ages.
The population of pine weevils was probably low during the studied period which
resulted in lower pine-weevil damage than normally found in this area.
