Denna uppsats handlar om hur bildspråk och metaforer kan användas i fysikläromedel på högstadiet. Syftet var att undersöka bildspråket i två olika läromedel och deras respektive lättlästa versioner. Bildspråksidentifikationen har gjorts utifrån definitionen av att tala om en sak i form av en annan. I analysen undersöks didaktiskt medvetna metaforer och hur dessa omarbetas till lättläst.

To answer these questions, first, a set of vehicles (which w
Currently, Blockchain Technology (BT) is still in the early stages of development. However, this technology has been used in some governments, organizations, companies, and research institutions. The novelty of BT led to the needs of an organization to understand what drives them to implement it.

Återbruka mera vitvaror! En undersökning av det som borde vara självklart enligt avfallshierarkin De resurser som finns på jorden utarmas mer och mer för varje dag som går. Hur vårt ekonomiska system är uppbyggt med att utarma resurser, producera, och till sist slänga våra produkter är i längden ohållbart.

Sveriges kommuner ställer idag allt högre krav under upphandling av teknisk utrustning till äldreomsorgen. Inom särskilt boende handlar dessa krav exempelvis om att vårdtagare alltid ska ha möjlighet att larma och positioneras, samt nya krav om falldetektion och pulsmätning. Tunstalls mobila trygghetslarm uppfyller idag de två första kraven och ämnar att inom en snar framtid även implementera fallDuring public procurement for elderly care in Sweden, higher demands on technological equipment are being introduced. Besides the regular demands for residential care that the elderly always should be able to alarm the caretakers and to always be positioned within the housing, new demands include fall detection and pulse measurement. Tunstall's mobile personal alarm meets the regular demands a
Integrated product development combines multiple disciplines (mechanics, engineering, informatics) in the development of complex products in corporations. In today’s economy, the development environment could be considered volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous, which prompts for experimentation, incremental product design and continuous engagement with the customer or end user.

Due to global demand for alternative energy sources, the industry of hydropower is continuing to thrive. Not only are there already thousands of dams worldwide, but many more developments are planned for the future.

Tidtabeller är nyckeln för att utnyttja den tillgängliga kapaciteten på järnvägen på ett optimalt sätt. I Sverige är det Trafikverket som tilldelar kapacitet genom att årligen ta fram en tågplan som specificerar alla tåg som ska framföras det kommande året. Att ta fram tågplanen är en komplex uppgift som försvåras av infrastrukturens begränsningar och att alla aktörer är beroende av varandra. När Timetables are the key to utilizing the capacity on the railway in an optimal way. In Sweden, the Swedish Transport Administration, Trafikverket, makes the allocation of capacity. It is done by preparing an annual timetable specifying all trains that will run the following year. Creating the annual timetable is a complex task made difficult by limitations in the infrastructure and because all acto
