Efter att ha hört termen parameter användas fritt i olika musikaliska sammanhang under min utbildning började en idé formas, kan musiken analyseras utifrån utvalda parametrar istället för ackords-, funktions-, form-, Schenker- eller temaanalys? I den här uppsatsen arbetar jag med att ta fram en personlig metod för att kartlägga kombinationer av parametrar som sedan kan analyseras för att bättre föDuring my education I have heard the term parameter used freely in different musical contexts. This has led to the forming of an idea, can music be analyzed according to chosen parameters instead of harmonic-, function-, form-, Schenker- or thematic analysis? In this essay I work with creating a personal method to map out combinations of parameters which then can be analyzed to better understand h

This thesis, titled ”Enhancing practice routines to reach the ultimate goals” consists an overview over some fundamental aspects regarding individual instrumental practice, how they occur and affect the musicians practice routines. Thesis includes a survey based on interviews made to professional musicians and we later analyze how the aforementioned aspects come to fruition in the gathered materia

A designer who engages in social problems is often an outsider, intervening in an environment with existing social structures. How can a designer contribute to finding durable solutions for social problems? What are the responsibilities of a social designer? And what role do power differences play? These questions were explored both theoretically and practically. The first by comparing social desi

Overconsumption and abuse of alcohol are common causes of disabilities and disease. In some cases, it can even lead to premature death. To detect alcohol abuse and overconsumption of alcohol, medical history, patient symptoms and different biomarkers can be used. In this thesis the alcohol specific phosphatidylethanol (PEth) biomarker has been of interest. PEth is the collective name for a group o

The aim of this study was to explore top leaders' qualitative experience of their possible selves throughout their professional careers and the major influences on these. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with three former CEOs of large global corporations. Critical Narrative Analysis served as the analytical approach towards the data and two major areas were identified: Characteristic

Introducing an N-sulfonylamidine substituent in galactose increased the selectivity for galectin-9N, a protein involved in functions of the immune system, and is believed to have roles in autoimmune diseases and cancer. In this work, a fast method for regioselective monoalkylation of galactose by microwave irradiation was developed, and eight potential galectin-9N inhibitors were synthesized. Mole

The European Spallation Source will be a world leading neutron source available for a range of neutron scattering experiments in the scientific community. In order to accurately simulate the production of cold and thermal neutrons, an accurate calculation of the neutron cross section for the moderator materials is needed. The neutron cross sections used in the current simulation models for the liq

The motivation behind the project was to examine if and how the product attachment value could be prolonged through the form and features of the product. Existing research and literature was used to form an understanding on how we value our belongings, from this four general determinants where clear: pleasure, self-expression, group affiliation and memory. They, together with the study of ordinar

Construction is one of the most dangerous industries in the United States. Job sites are controlled by the General Contractor who may perform their own work and will have Subcontractors perform other scopes of work. Work is performed by a mix of union and non-union workers. Frontline workers are often “held accountable” and blamed for mishaps that happen on a job site which often leads to discipli

Bergslagens malmprovins är känd för att innehålla stora Zn-Pb-Ag- och Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag-sulfidförekomster med tillhörande järnoxidskarn och många studier har fokuserat på att förstå dessa förekomster. Cu-Co-förekomster som Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten har emellertid fått mindre uppmärksamhet. Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten är en disseminerad och åderstödd Cu-Co-mineralisering som förekommer i en 1,89 Ga ryoliThe Bergslagen Province is known for containing major Zn-Pb-Ag and Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag sulphide mineralizations with associated iron-oxide skarns and a lot of research have focused on understanding them. However, Cu-Co deposits like the Vena-Dampetorp deposit have received less attention. The Vena-Dampetorp deposit is a disseminated and vein Cu-Co mineralization hosted primarily in a 1.89 Ga rhyolitic to

Landskapsparken utforskar möjligheten för ett mer tillgängligt jordbrukslandskap i Dagstorps backar i Skåne. Genom att undersöka historiska lager, gränser och minnen i landskapet har en gestaltningsstrategi för en framtida park vuxit fram. Centralt för projektet är tanken om promenaden som ett pedagogiskt verktyg, där besökarens rörelse genom landskapsrummen ger nya insikter och djupare förståelse

MRT är en icke-invasiv undersökningsmetod men kan förknippas med oro och ångest hos patienterna. Oro och ångest kan leda till längre undersökningstider, avbrutna undersökningar och rörelseartefakter. Röntgensjuksköterskans roll är att utifrån ett personcentrerad förhållningssätt kunna erbjuda individualiserad omvårdnad för att lindra oro och skapa delaktighet för patienterna. Syfte: beskriva hur r

This thesis highlights how art with minimal forms of expression communicate allegorical by discussing specific aspects in the interpretation of Maria Lindbergs artwork Att Ha. This is done through a semiotic analysis complemented by a theoretical framework consisting of mainly allegorical theories. The purpose of this study is to understand the varying messages that are being produced by stressing

In this master thesis, the possibilities and limitations of using handheld aug- mented reality (AR) as a complement to a regular human machine interface (HMI) are explored. This was done by developing a mobile application for An- droid and connecting it to a real machine, making it possible to perform actions on the machine through the AR application. A user study with 20 test subjects was conduct

Platser har en förmåga att beröra oss människor. Vi rör oss dagligen mellan olika platser som skapar olika stora intryck hos oss. Intryck som ofta beror av platsens olika karaktärsdrag. I detta examensarbete försöker jag förstå mig på hur en plats fysiska karaktär kan bidra till den mänskliga upplevelsen av platsen. Syftet är att skapa ett underlag som man i en förlängning skulle kunna använda sig

The aim of this study was to find out secondary school pupils own opinions of cannabis in a development of legalization and liberalization of it in the U.S., nearly in California, Colorado, Washington and Columbia. What’s the opinion of cannabis if you ask young Swedish secondary school pupils? What’s their attitudes? What do they think of the development to a legalization and decriminalization of

När arbetsbrist har uppstått har även frågan kring hur reglerna ska tolkas även uppstått. Detta har inte alltid varit tydligt i lagtext utan mycket av detta har Arbetsdomstolen fått tolka och det har gett prejudikat att följa. Där har reglerna kring 7 §och 22 § LAS utretts i domstolen och kring det har frågeställningar samt kritik uppkommit. Domstolen har fastslagit att 7 § LAS alltid ska utredas When a labor shortage occurs, the question of how the rules about labor should be interpreted has also arisen. The rules have not always been clear in the Swedish law but much of this has been interpreted by the Labor Court and it has given precedent to follow. There, the rules regarding 7 § and 22 § LAS have been investigated in the Labor Court and around it both questions and criticism have come
