We have studied how Power is portrayed in Swedish journals by analyzing eight portraits of Swedish persons with economic or political Power. We have studied how they and their Power are described by the journalist in text and picture. We wanted to see which picture the journalist shows of people with Power, what properties they are given by the journalist and how this picture is shown by the texts and the pictures. We have also looked if there are any differences between people with political Power and people with economic Power. We have under our studies noticed that the persons with Power are described as very successful and special and this picture are shown in a very clear and unproblematic way..

This essay is about Power in the classroom. It is about the Power dimension of the student-teacher relationships that arise in that space. The overall aim has been to investigate which categories are fruitful in a Power analysis of these relationships. My aim has therefore been to develop Power categories and to use them to identify and to categorise cases of Power interaction that take place between those particular actors in that particular setting.In order to gather material for my study I have both read literature that approaches the study of the student-teacher relationships from a Power perspective and done a series of observations in a high school.My theoretical frame comprises a concept of Power and a series of Power categories. These categories include strength, authority, inducement, coercion, violence, resistance as well as to possess Power, to have Power, to exert Power, the scope of Power and the base of Power.

The aim of this report was to investigate if Sweden can have 100 % renewable electricity production in the year 2050. The conclusion is that it is possible but under certain conditions. For instance wave Power must be in commercial use. When wind Power and solar Power represent a large percentage of the electric production there will be a lack of electric Power during the winter but during the summer there will be a surplus of electric Power. Both the surplus and the lack of electric Power need to be taken into account.

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om vistelse på hög höjd påverkar den anaeroba arbetsförmågan. Sex aktiva universitetsstudenter, fyra män och två kvinnor, deltog frivilligt i studien. Expeditionen till Nepal varade i 40 dagar och under den perioden sov och vandrade försökspersonerna mellan 1400 och 5100 meter över havet. Före och efter expeditionen genomförde försökspersonerna ett anaerobt wingatetest där peak Power, average Power, minimum Power and Power drop uppmättes. Resultatet visade en signifikant sänkning av average Power efter den genomförda expeditionen på hög höjd, med ett medelvärde på 8.44 ± 0,84 w/kg före expeditionen och 7.81 ± 0,87 w/kg efter expeditionen.

Wind Power is expanding rapidly in Sweden. Increasing amounts of wind Power sets higher requirements on balancing Power and grid expansions and would affect the whole Swedish electricity system. The aim of this report is to examine the factors affecting the wind Power expansion in Sweden. How many wind Power plants projects will obtain building permissions and what costs and revenues can be expected? How much balancing Power will be required and does a changing geographical distribution of the wind Power plants reduce the need of balancing Power?A survey of the county board?s official applications has been made and out of all the applications, corresponding to 80 TWh produced per year, about half of the applications are expected to obtain a permit with a major portion of them located in the north of Sweden.Especially older wind Power plants, deriving revenue from Nord pool, find themselves today in a complicated financial situation.

This essay is built upon the thoughts of Joseph S. Nye concerning Power, and the different ways of exercising that Power. The characteristics of Nye's theories are the thoughts about the second face of Power, or what he describes as the soft Power. The essay seeks to examine what kind of Power the US has been in their work for non-proliferation and democracy promotion in the Middle East. It also seeks to find what it is that makes the US to choose to exercise the specific Powers.

This thesis paper is based on Ian Manners Normative Power Europe-theory with a focus on EU?s military operation in Somalia. By examining documents from EU institutions in the form of reports concerning EU NAVFOR ? Operation ATALANTA ? EUTM Somalia ? EUCAP NESTOR. This study shows that the Normative Power Europe-theory can get expressed and that the EU continues its normative statements in Somalia. This result is an interesting contribution to the theory of Normative Power Europe witch have gotten a lot of critic about how a military operation should effect and diminish the theory..

Hofstede constructed a culture dimension called Power Distance, measuring the inequality of Power. Germany and Sweden have relatively similar values according to his world-renowned research. But a series of interviews of Swedish entrepreneurs in Germany shows that these perceive a large difference in inequality of Power in the two countries. This essay seeks to explain the difference between these subjective-qualitative experiences and the objective-quantitative data of Hofstedes Power Distance Index. We propose that a combination of differences in communication, exercise and visibility of Power and formality influence the way Power Distance is perceived.

Our essay is about children's exercise of Power, oppression or domination in games or when playing on school grounds with one and other. We thought it would be interesting to look into how children in preschool and up to the fifth grade use Power acts respective Power plays in leisure-time. During four days we visited two different after-school center and carried out observations of children during the school day and later inside the recreation centers during leisure activities. In order to analyze our empirical material in relation to Power, we have used Magnus Hörnqvist (2012) interpretation of Michel Foucault's theory of Power - Another Foucault. We have also used Åsa Bartholdsson (2008) thesis about The regular exercise of Power regime ? about normality and Power in school.

This thesis treats the normative Power of the European Union and its affect on Macedonia. The main purpose has been to look closer with the use of the application of Ian Manners theory of normative Power on the Macedonian case. The focus will be to answer the following questions: Does the European Union act as a normative Power in relation to Macedonia, if so, how are these values diffused? Has there been any effect of the spreading of these values? Based on six interviews and the available material of European Union strategies for the Macedonian membership I have attempted to understand to what extent the European Union?s normative Power has had an influence in Macedonia. The result of my analysis is confirmation of the European Union as a normative Power in Macedonia and the understanding of the methods of application..

With background in the rapidly growing need to find solutions for sustainable energy production and the increasing interest for wind Power, this report was written. With take-off point from the wind Power plant Big Glenn, which has been built in the harbour of Gothenburg, a model of the adjacent Power grid has been created in Simulink/SimPowerSystems. Parameters for the Power grid and its components has been provided by Göteborg Energi Nät, that has also been the supplier of measurement data of produced Power, the Power need from loads in the vicinity, voltage levels, current values and also the variation of Power factor at the wind Power plant.The SimPowerSystems model has been used to perform simulations of Power flow in the grid. These simulated values have then been compared to the measured values to verify the functionality of the model. Further, the model has been used to perform simulations of a grid fault, which causes a voltage drop.

The technological legacy from the early electrification of the Swedish railroads has resulted in a Power grid with a lower grid frequency than the national Power grid from which it is fed. Energy transfer between these Power grids with different frequencies requires substations, adapting the grid frequency for the rail road Power grid. For this purpose, a feeding Power grid has been built, stretching across the country from Boden in the north to Tälle/Häggvik in the south.Power transfer in the Swedish Power grid results in voltage angle differences which increase with increasing loads and transfer distance. These voltage angle differences are transferred from the Power feeding substations to the rail road Power grid, will in some extent cause loss of energy due to unwanted Power flows from north to south.To minimize the losses due to this phenomenon, a Power management system called EFS 132 kV has been developed and implemented. The system minimizes the unwanted Power flows and controls the desired Power flow for a good distribution of loads between the Power feeding substations.This thesis investigates the extent of the transmission losses avoided due to the EFS 132 kV that coordinates the idling angles to a common reference point.The results indicate that EFS 132 kV affects the Power flow, especially between the northern substations through an improved load distribution.

Orust Kretsloppsakademi is a nonprofit organisation, with a goal of annually generate the same amount of electrical energy that is consumed. Orust is an island on the west coast of Sweden, north of Gothenburg. The population of 15 000 reaches 40 000 during summer, due to the large amount of vacationer. The total electricity demand is 174 GWh a year with a maximum Power need of 32 MW. This report presents an analysis for the plausibility of their plan and from a Power system stability perspective, the effects on the electrical grid.The conclusion is that the restraints for development of Power generation from wind, solar and wave generation, are the Power systems capability to transfer Power, primarily in the transformers of the grid.

Today?s wind Power plants are only compensated for their reactive Power consumption at no-load. As the wind Power plants grow bigger the amount of reactive Power they need also increases. This is no longer a problem that can be ignored, especially as the net owners are beginning to charge the reactive Power they transport.In this thesis a couple of different methods of compensation and their prices will be discussed and evaluated. Problems, such as self-excitation, that can occur if one fully compensates the wind Power plant will also be brought to surface.
