This study sets out to investigate the non-diegetic music in Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar (2014) in order to highlight its implicit narrative functions and meanings. The theoretical approach consists of semiotic concepts such as ‘Cognitive denotative’ and ‘Cognitive connotative’ functions by Emilio Audissino, ‘Myth’ and ‘Anchorage’ by Barthes as well as Claudia Gorbman’s ‘Connotative Cueing’.

Denna fallstudie syftar till att utvinna fördjupad kunskap om mellanchefens komplexa och mångtydiga roll som meningsskapare och meningsgivare under en digitaliseringsförändring. Tidigare forskning har nämligen betonat mellanchefens roll som avgörande under en förändringsprocess. Detta eftersom mellancheferna innehar en roll som meningsskapare när de omvandlar övergripande organisationsinformation The purpose of this case study is to gain a deepened knowledge about the middle manager's complex and ambiguous role as sensemakers and sensegivers during a digital change. Former research has emphasized the middle manager’s role as crucial during a process of change. This because the middle managers hold a role as sensemakers when they convert the organizational information to their own units

A modern automotive vehicle is a complex technical system, containing many electronic, mechanical, and software parts. Typically, a high-end vehicle contains 70 or more electronic control units (ECUs) on average. These are controlling a large number of distributed functions, of which many are safety-critical, and adding complexity, which is surpassing 100 million lines of code. Furthermore, the co

Den tekniska utvecklingen inom artificiell intelligens (AI), maskininlärda algoritmer och datainsamling har möjliggjort den profilering och det automatiserade beslutsfattandet enskilda dagligen exponeras för. Profilering och automatiserat beslutsfattande består av en uppsättning tekniker, inklusive användning av algoritmer i syfte att utvinna kunskaper ur stora datamängder. Profilering är en autom

Idag är kommunikation, marknadsföring och transaktion av produkter nyckelfunktioner för produktförpackningar. Kvaliteten på det grafiska förpackningstrycket är därför av stor betydelse och måste vara konsekvent för stora produktionskvantiteter. En av de vanligaste tryckteknikerna för tryck på papper eller kartong är flexografiskt tryck. Med denna teknik appliceras färger en efter en och genom deraToday communication, promotion and transaction of products are key functions of product packaging. The quality of the package print is therefore of great importance and needs to be consistent for large production quantities. One of the most common technologies for printing on paper or cardboard is flexographic printing. With this technology colors are applied one by one and through their combinati

In conventional design of pile foundations, all loads are taken by the piles, i.e. the contact pressure between the raft and the soil is neglected. In the last decades geotechnical engineers have started to take this pressure into account in design of pile foundation. Such a foundation, where the raft and the piles interact to transfer the loads to the ground, is in this dissertation called piled
