Coils/material optimering för pressade artiklar VLU

Problem discussion - Volvo trucks belive that their high number of coilsvariants is one of the reasons they have high costs for inventory and suffer from lack of space. Slitting is the first manufacturing process for some of the steel coils. It means dividing the coils into a number of narrower rolls. Scrap occurs in the slittingprocess and Volvo trucks would like to reduce the amount of scrap. Th

Quality performance and cost analysis within customized production - Two case studies from the worktop industry

Purpose The purpose is to increase the IKEA knowledge regarding production of custom made worktops at two German suppliers, providing an action plan for the suppliers of how to increase product quality as well as calculating the potential cost savings and the product cost structure. Methodology The project is performed as two case studies, where both qualitative and quantitative data has been obta

Stulet kulturav? En studie kring repatriering av mänskliga kvarlevor och kulturföremål

Recent discussions about a stolen cultural heritage have resulted in several repatriation claims from indigenous people. These claims are often considered a way to disengage from a coloni-al past. There are numerous conventions and ethical guidelines about repatriation to consider; nevertheless repatriation cases are being handled in different ways across the globe. In 2004 the Jewish congregation

Helsingborgs framväxt - Den tidiga urbana utvecklingen av staden och dess område

This paper is about the city of Helsingborg, which lies in the north-western part of Skåne, and has roots from the early middle ages. The paper discusses how and why the city grew. In the Helsingborg area there were during the Iron Age and Viking age already places that could have been the central places. The question is why the town grew up just where it did at the coast and not at the central pl

Fuel Flexible Prediction Model for T100 Gas Turbine

To be able to predict the behaviour of the things around us is valuable asset, whether it is the stock prices or the train arrival, a chance to know before it is happening is always beneficial. The computer has taken the prediction of behaviour to a higher level. From reading tea leaves in a cup, to really look into large amounts of data and with previous answers find a good approximation to what

Livet och döden i dåtid och nutid. En studie av de mänskliga kvarlevorna i utställningen Danmarks Oldtid ur ett förmedlingsmässigt och etiskt perspektiv.

In this essay I examine what function human remains fill in the exhibition Danmarks Oldtid at The National Museum in Copenhagen, and what image of prehistory the museum wants to mediate with human material and if they have followed any ethical guidlines in the presentation of human remains. I have also investegated what perception the visitors get from viewing human remains in the exhibition, and

Ett kulthus - eller bara ett kul hus? Ett animalosteologiskt perspektiv på en hyddbotten på den mesolitiska boplatsen Skateholm II

The aim of this paper has been to undertake an osteological investigation of an unresearched bone assemblage of a hut construction from the late mesolithic dwelling site of Skateholm on the south coast of Sweden. The hut construction, named Construction 24, has been interpreted as a construction for ceremonial activities by earlier researchers (Larsson 1988b). This interpretation is challenged by

Familjedagvård på goda grunder? -en kvantitativ studie av intensiv familjeterapi inom familjedagvård

Under 70-talet uppstod intensiv familjeterapi på avdelning som ett sätt att möta de familjer som var svårhjälpta inom öppenvården. Utvecklandet av familjeavdelningar hörde ihop med att det behövdes nya behandlingsmetoder för att ta sig an de familjer med organisationsproblem i familjestrukturen, kaotiska familjesituationer, utagerande och beteendeproblem där man tyckte sig kunna förstå familjen oDuring the 70th centry intensive family therapy arose as a way to meet families which was difficult to meet in an outpatient context. The development of family therapy was connected with the need for new treatment approaches to adress families with organizational problems, chaotic family situations, and behaviour problems. It seemed to be easier to understand the family and its network if the whol

Fluid-Structure Interaction of Membranes in Flow Regulating Devices

The thesis focuses on multi-physics simulation of a gas inflator for inflation of airbags. The need of multi physics simulations extends to many other engineering and industrial applications and has become an extensive area of research. Main focus is on the Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) within the field of multi-physics or coupled physics simulation. The purpose is to study the flow, the membr

Testing of new generation bio-fuels in diesel engines: Towards ultra-efficient and ultra-clean fuels.

Oil has been for the past 50 years the most widely used energy source. That is because oil contains a lot of energy and is easy to transport and store. But the use of oil has drawbacks; it is believed to change the earth’s climate due to the combustion and the emissions of the green house gases. The particles from the combustion cause problems for the human health. Today Oil accounts for 33 % of t

Europeisk spill-over i Somalia?

Europeiska Unionen har sedan i början av 1990-talet funnits på plats i Somalia för att bistå i arbetet med att återuppbygga det konflikthärjade landet. Parallellt med denna närvaro har en rad institutionella förändringar skett inom unionens gemensamma utrikes- och säkerhetspolitik (GUSP). Vår undersökning består i att finna empiriska bevis för att dessa förändringar har påverkat den politik EU bed

Low Load Operation on high Octane Gasoline PPC in a Light Duty Engine using Negative Valve Overlap and NVO-pilot injection

Although development of electrical vehicles seems to go forward, they are still best suitable for short range transportation, and are dependent of generation of clean electricity to be environmental friendly. The fuel cell has issues to be solved, for example low efficiency at loading, and also problem of generating and storing the hydrogen fuel in an efficient way. Recent years the hybrid vehicle

Sjuksköterskans upplevelse vid palliativ vård av vuxna patienter

För svårt sjuka patienter kan det en dag bli nödvändigt att avsluta den aktiva behandlingen och gå över till palliativ vård. Sjukvårdpersonal är skolad att bota sjukdom, en övergång till palliativ vård kan kännas som ett misslyckande för sjuksköterskan. Sjuksköterskan spelar en central roll genom att vara delaktig i omvårdnaden av sina patienter. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att belysa sju

Språktolkning via telefon vid skånes universitetssjukhus

Språkbarriärer är ett hinder i kommunikationen mellan patient, närstående ochvårdgivare som kan leda till negativa konsekvenser för den enskilda patienten. För attåtgärda detta bör professionell språktolk anlitas enligt Region Skånes egna riktlinjer.Syftet med studien var att utifrån vårdgivarens perspektiv belysa erfarenheter avspråktolkning via telefon på Skånes Universitetssjukhus (SUS). Studie

Patienters upplevelser av att vårdas isolerade

Syftet med denna studie var att belysa patienters upplevelser av att vårdas isolerade. Artiklar söktes i databaserna Medline, Cinahl och Psycinfo. I litteraturstudien ingick åtta vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultatet visade att många patienter upplevde känslor som ensamhet, ångest och tristess, men det fanns också de som inte upplevde situationen så betungande. En del uppfattade sjuksköterskans roll
