I detta arbete skapades en virtuell människomodell som placerades i ett virtuellt rum med omgivande miljö. Dessa modeller skapades i 3D-modelleringsprogrammet Autodesk 3ds Max i kombination med det digitala skulpterings- och målningsprogrammet Autodesk Mudbox. Motorn som valdes för att driva simuleringen var Unity 5. Det är en spelmotor som valdes för att ge en ökad realism över klassiska simuleriDuring this project a virtual human model was created and placed in a virtual room with a surrounding environment. These models were created in the 3D modeling software Autodesk 3ds Max, in combination with the digital sculpting and painting software Autodesk Mudbox. The chosen engine to run the simulation was the game engine Unity 5 with the reason to provide an increased realism over classic sim

This thesis provides a study in how media construct overweight and body image. The study is also considering if there is any difference between male and female body image and overweight. The study is based on two different newspapers health sides and a qualitative research was made. The main result showed that most of the articles pointed towards women and not towards men.

The focus of this thesis is to show the variety of Japanese loanwords’ abbreviation processes. Nowadays loanwords play a big role in Japan’s society. Most of loanwords are long and have some difficulty to integrate in Japanese language in their full forms. This is why most of the loanwords are shortened by the usage of various patterns and rules, which will be described and analyzed in this paper.

The Japanese language consists of a large number of loanwords, which derived from both China and the West. It is believed by many that influence by the English language began with the American occupation just after the Second World War. The loanwords from especially English increased vastly in number ever since. Today, the foreign loanwords from the West, gairaigo, makes up to approximately 10% in

Hanna Matschke Ekholm ”Har vi med allt nu?” – En kvalitativ studie om hur strategiskt miljö- och klimatarbete integreras på kommunal nivå. En stor del av koldioxidutsläpp och miljöförstöring sker genom aktiviteter och beslut av individer och organisationer på lokal nivå. Sverige har ett starkt kommunalt självstyre och stora möjligheter att göra skillnad. Det strategiska miljö- och klimatarbetetThis study aims to illustrate the complexity when integrating environmental and climate strategic questions in local governments. The study gives an account for significant aspects when mainstreaming environment and climate consideration in municipality organizations, what obstacles there are and how it can be organized in order to be more successful. For this purpose a qualitative approach has be

Valblindhet innebär ett misslyckande att upptäcka en diskrepans mellan ett val man gör och dess utfall. The misinformation effect uppstår när ens hågkomst av en händelse förändras för att ny, felaktig information om händelsen givits. Syftet med denna studie var dels att undersöka huruvida valblindhet kan skapas för personers hågkomst av en händelse de bevittnat, och dels om valblindhet i så fall pChoice blindness is the failure to detect a discrepancy between a choice and its outcome. The misinformation effect occurs when the recollection of an event changes because new, misleading information about the event is received. The purpose of this study was to merge the choice blindness and misinformation effect paradigms, and thus examine whether choice blindness can be created for individuals’

Historiska bosättningar är av stort intresse eftersom de kan hjälpa oss att nå en förståelse om vårt förflutna och våra kulturella rötter. Tack vare den teknologiska utvecklingen är det nu enklare att lokalisera vissa av de historiska bosättningar som blivit översvämmade genom att kartlägga havsbotten. Forskning om översvämmade mesolitiska boplatser har lett till att det finns utvecklade hypoteserHistoric settlements are of great interest since they play a role in understanding our past and our cultural roots. The development of technology now makes it easier to map the seafloor and locate submerged settlements. Finding submerged Mesolithic settlements has led to hypotheses being made on what characteristics to look out for which could suggest Mesolithic settlement locations. This study fo

Gasellföretagen skapar många nya arbetstillfällen i Sverige. Under åren 2004 till 2007 stod gasellföretagen för drygt 10 procent av ökningen av Sveriges BNP. För att framgångsrika företag ska skapas och växa krävs individer som tar initiativet att starta och driva dessa. Tidigare forskning har fokuserat på vad som driver entreprenörer i uppstartsskedet, men lika viktigt är det att förstå vad det ä

En enkätstudie utfördes för att undersöka sambandet mellan Deliberate Practice (DLP) och behandlingsutfall i psykoterapi. Endast en studie i världen har tidigare undersökt detta samband. Denna enkätstudie utfördes på psykoterapimottagningen vid Lunds universitet. 130 studentterapeuter som bedrivit terapi på mottagningen tillfrågades om vad de gör en genomsnittlig vecka för att utvecklas som terapeA survey study was conducted to examine the relationship between Deliberate Practice (DLP) and treatment outcome in psychotherapy. To date, only one study has previously examined this connection. The study was conducted at a university counselling centre at Lund University. 130 student therapists were asked what they do an average week to improve themselves as therapists. They were also asked abou

Prior research indicates that the increase in help towards 1 identified victim (identifiable victim effect) is partly driven by affective reasoning. When negative affective information is salient, help towards victims that can be helped decline, an effect known as pseudoinefficacy. However, the affective component has not been clearly defined, and help efforts has been used interchangeably with me

The aim of this study was to examine the concept of authorization of hospital social workers in Sweden. More specifically with reference to the relationship between hospital social workers and psychologists relative to psychosocial work. The study was based on a document analysis of several different document types from different source categories. Additionally a semi-structured interview with one

Trots att ett decennium har gått sedan artärernas longitudinella rörelse visades in vivo är bakgrunden till denna multifasiska rörelse fortfarande inte fastställd. Att trycket skulle kunna driva rörelsen har ledigt avfärdats. Resonemanget har varit att eftersom trycket verkar vinkelrätt mot väggen kan det endast påverka den radiella töjningen. I följande arbete har vi visat i en förenklad teoretiAlthough a decade has passed since the longitudinal movement of arteries was shown in vivo, the cause for this multiphasic movement has not yet been established. Pressure as a force driving the forward motion has been repeatedly dismissed on the grounds that pressure acts perpendicular to the wall and therefore solely in the radial direction. In this work we have shown in a simplified theoretical

Empirical and theoretical research has for some time argued that investors also expect rewards for bearing risk related to higher moments. This thesis examines if inclusion of coskewness and cokurtosis helps to explain the variation in asset returns. These factors are added to models that also account for market risk , Fama-French factors and momentum. We use methodology of realized moments to est

The recent nationalization of museum institutions, combined with the becoming highly customer-centric society has forced museums to review their strategies. Initially products (artifacts)-oriented; they nowadays have to consider visitors and their experiences with the offered product and services as a major element within their equation as it represents their main source of revenue. According to P

Enligt 15 § anläggningslagen (AL) ska samtliga delägare i en gemensamhetsanläggning erhålla andelstal för både drift och utförande av anläggningen. Andelstal för utförande ska främst beräknas efter nyttan av anläggningen medan andelstal för drift ska grunda sig på användandet. För utförande saknas i stort sett vägledning om hur andelstal ska beräknas. Arbetet syftar till att genom undersökning av Participatory shares should be obtained by all co-owners of a joint facility. The basis of the calculation of the participatory shares is different for construction and operation. In this thesis a survey is done to determine to what extent this means that different participatory shares is calculated for construction and operation in joint facilities and if these joint facilities have something in
