Ett ökat antal varianter av artiklar inom fordonsindustrin har medfört att lagerytan vid monteringslinjen inte längre räcker till. Detta har skapat ett behov för sekvenserad materialförsörjning, framförallt då nya artiklar ska föras in och rymmas i materialfasaden. Få studier har utgått från montörernas perspektiv, trots att de berörs direkt av förändringar gällande hur materialet presenteras. Denna studie avser därför att utgå från montörerna och sekvensera det material som de tjänar mest på. Med hänsyn till detta är studiens syfte att skapa en modell för stöd vid beslut gällande vilka artiklar som för montören är mest fördelaktiga att presentera i sekvens.

The number of locals in Stockholm who chooses the bike in front of public transport has increased significantly in recent years. The product purchaser of this project, Joakim Victorin at Sigma AB, has a keen interest in cycling, which resulted in a fairly obvious topic of this project; through a web application Sigma AB wanted to make it possible to handle results from professional as well as amateur competitions in cycling.The purpose of this web application is to simplify reporting and handling of competition for both small and bigger bicycle races. By providing the users of the system a platform independent client, any available device may be used.This thesis has followed the development principles which prevail on the ASP .NET MVC 3 concept. When developing the system the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 development environment was used. The framework and the pattern of ASP .NET MVC 3 is a prominent part of today?s web development.

Fixturer är vanliga i tillverkningsindustrin för att hålla detaljer på plats under tiden de monterassamman. Det vanliga är att fixturerna konstrueras för varje specifik uppsättning av detaljer som skafixeras. Ibland uppstår behovet att kunna justera fixturer så att de kan återanvändas. Den typ avflexibel fixtur som används i detta arbete har fått namnet flexapod.Arbetets resultat är ett grafiskt användargränssnitt, en operatörspanel, som hjälper operatören medjusteringen av flexapoderna. Målet för operatören är att justera längden på flexapodens sex ben såatt flexapoden hamnar i önskat läge.

Det har gjorts flertalet studier som bekräftat vegetationens betydelse i leksammanhang, men det finns ett behov av vidare studier i enskilda växtval. Denna studie har gjort ett första försök i att bedöma vedartade växters lämplighet för leksammanhang utifrån (A) risk, (B) slittålighet och (C) lek. Studien har gjorts utifrån vegetation i direkt anslutning till ett antal lekplatser i Halmstad kommun. Lekplatsen som ståndort ställer stora krav på växters tålighet för slitage, och det är därför ett viktigt kriterium i arbetet med att välja lämpliga växter. Risker som bör undvikas i leksammanhang är taggar, tornar och giftiga växtdelar. För bedömning av växters positiva påverkan i leksammanhang studerades växtmaterialet utifrån kriterierna: (1) förekomsten av löst material, (2) barns möjligheter att på olika sätt påverka och använda vegetationen och (3) växters potential till kojverksamhet. Studien visar att samtliga studerade växter kunde bedömas som slittåliga och att alla växter uppfyllde lekkriteriet löst material.

Our reason for this study is to research how non- profit organizations focused on fundraising, market themselves to create and keep the relationships with their potential and existing contributors. With this study we also want to create an image of the meaning of marketing, applied to non- profit organizations focused on fundraisings, struggle towards attracting more contributors. We also aim to research what our respondents believe will be the outcomes of marketing on nonprofit organizations in the future. For this essay we have chosen a qualitative method which consists of six interviews with respondents whom have different knowledge and experiences of the non- profit sector. We chose this method to be able to view our main subject from different aspects and through the interviews also form a more profound picture of the non- profit sector and also, finally, se what the respondents think about the issue.

This thesis in Art History and Visual Science is about values to graffiti and graffiti artist Banksy. I have studied values relating to Banksy´s graffiti images through which context they are placed in and where they are located. I have selected two different images of Banksy as an example on the basis of a transnational phenomenon, where the images that circulate in the public arena by street art and other images and imported into the galleries and consumption market. My conclusion is that the values of the images are based on the context in which each room have its surroundings and that therefore the impression will increase. The public space context, signal availability and the white cube context indicates art, and the commercial context signals goods and items that can be bought.

The aim of this thesis was to look to the organization of people through social media and the Internet. Our study was conducted with a current event in focus. We began our study by examine the protests that had arisen as a result of that the American proposed law called "Stop Online Piracy Act" (SOPA)was presented. With our main focus on SOPA we began to investigate those discussions and debates that during a limited period of time were conducted on a large social news site, Reddit.com, which is a form of social media. We focused on the way that people expressed themselves over social mediawhen it comes to political issues and also whether or not Internet activism can have an effect in the society.

The matter of CSR and sustainable products has gained an increased amount of interest in recent years as "green products" are becoming a trend with more "eco"-alternatives in the assortment of many retailers. However, among the increasing number of socially oriented customers, it seems that although they claim an increased demand for these kind of products, its easier to "talk the talk" that to actually "walk the walk". This is due to a discrepancy between attitude and behavior, called the attitude-behavior gap. The purpose of this paper is to examine how to overcome this gap by using three different studies to get a nuanced and reality-based view of the problem. The focus within these different studies is on the potential effects inside the store and how information provided has an effect on perceived credibility and purchase intention.

Denna rapport beskriver VisMT 2. VisMT 2 är en programvara som utvecklats som ett examensarbete av Daniel Peterson vid Linköpings Universitet i samarbete med organisationen NVIS (Norrköpings Visualiserings och Interaktionsstudio).Målsättningen för VisMT 2 var att skapa en enkel och kraftfull mjukvara som på ett innovativt sätt synliggör resultat och prestanda för butiker i detaljhandelskedjor. Vidare sattes målet att programmet skulle grunda sig i ett explorativt gränssnitt där användaren kan undersöka butiksrelaterade data i både spatial och temporalplanet.Programmet gavs ett gränssnitt med sammanlänkade vyer. Interaktion i en vy ger återkopplingar för relaterade data i en annan vy i realtid.Programmet utvecklades i C# .NET och använder Managed DirectX för att generera 3D-grafik. Det slutgiltiga resultatet uppfyller väl den målsättning som skapades vid projektets inledning.

The aim was to explore how the first page of a student newspaper has been changed over time since it was founded in the 1960´s.This thesis explores how the front page of the student newspaper Lösnummer has been changed since it was founded in 1966. It concerns the location and frequency of elements and it is based on theories of layout, the first page and visual communicationIn addition, the thesis develops a new kind of method for determining the location of elements on the type area. The method is based on the hexadecimal number system. It is formed as a grid which is placed on the first page to determine the location of the elements.It concludes that the frequency of elements had its peak during the 1970´s and has ever since decreased gradually. Image placement has gone from being scattered all over the front page to be centered and increase in size. .
