This report covers the process and result in developing a hand hygiene station for a public environment. With disease spread getting more focus in todays media and society, we wanted to explore and develop a product that is helpful in decreasing the disease spread in our global society. Research was mainly conducted by information gathering from second hand sources, such as scientific- and trend

Individens vardagliga medieanvändning ökar vilket leder till en förändrad kommunikationskultur. Ny medieteknik och nya medier skapar nya behov vilket i sin tur leder till förändrade normer och bryderier. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur socialiteten påverkas som ett resultat av vårt dagliga medieanvändande. För att nå en förståelse för dessa förändringar har nio semistrukturerade intervjuer
In this work the major models for calculating diffusion in simulations of a laminar premixed hydrogen flame, the mixture averaged approximation and the multicomponent model, are explained and compared. This is done in order to see if the accuracy gained in implementing the multicomponent model is enough to warrant the increased workload the transition will cause. The models are used to calculate
Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie är att belysa patienters upplevelse av akupunkturbehandling i vuxenpsykiatrisk öppenvård. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med tolv patienter och efter induktiv innehållsanalys framkom fem teman: förväntningar, behandlingstimmen, efter behandlingstimmen, faktorer som påverkar samt akupunktur som behandling. Resultatet visar att patienterna var nöjda med
Popular science summary: Huntington’s disease (HD) is a rare disease but more commonly found in ethnic populations belonging to Europe and North America than in those of Asian or African ancestry. This disease causes loss of neurons in different areas of the brain, that gives rise to different behavioural changes and psychological disturbances including involuntary movements and depression. The
This Master’s Thesis shows how to model the kinematics and forward dynamics for the parallel kinematic robot from ABB, IRB340 FlexPicker, and how to implement the control using software and hardware from B&R Automation. With conventional methods the forward kinematics, inverse kinematics and the kinematics for the velocities and accelerations of the robot are modelled. The forward dynamics, ca
The advantages with infrared heating and the fact that the technology has become significantly more inexpensive opens up a bigger interest to develop products using infrared heaters further. What will the future kitchen look like? How can infrared technology develop and create more conventional and intellectual products processing our food? By pushing the limits of the technology today the main
Transboundary river basins provide inhabitance and water resources to millions of people around the globe and they are a source of dispute among neighbor countries also. This thesis focuses on the snow melt and runoff modeling of a small transboundary river, Talas; using a physically distributed rainfall-runoff model, TOPKAPI-ETH. Investigation on the use of remotely sensed precipitation estimates
Climatic condition is what ultimately frames all ecosystems and is now undergoing dramatic change. IPCC models predict, in 100 years, a temperature increase between 2-5 ˚C and, as a consequence of warmer and wetter conditions, increased humic content in northern temperate freshwater systems. To study the impact of increasing temperature and humic content on shallow freshwaters a long-term outdoor
In my essay, I try to explore and understand the importance of the physical body of actors. How common is “type casting”? Does actors get selected for different parts due to their looks? To investigate these questions I made interviews with actors, directors and other people who work with theater.
The aim of this thesis has been the examination of the productivity growth patterns through the process of structural change and within sectors productivity improvements for Finland over the period of 1975 to 2011. By connecting theories of “General Purpose Technologies”, “Creative Destruction”, and “Techno-economic paradigm” with the ICT emergence, the notion of ICT intensity sectors had emerged
Olika erfarenheter av musikskapande tillsammans med läroplanens kunskapskrav har bidragit till intresset för denna studie, som undersöker det digitala musikskapandets betydelse i musikundervisningen. Syftet med undersökningen är att se om det digitala musikskapandet kan vara ett bra alternativ och komplement till det mer traditionella och om det kan tillföra något till musikskapande i skolan. FrågDifferent experiences together with the new curriculum for elementary school, created an interest which partly lead to this thesis, examining the importance of digital music making in the musical education. The purpose is to examine digital music creation as an alternative way of creating music and the contribution of it to music creation in elementary school. The following questions were used in
Denna uppsats är dels en utvecklad verkkommentar till det praktiska iscensättningsarbete med titeln "Installagrafi scenotion" som jag genomförde under hösten 2013, och dels en undersökning i hur den dramaturgiska förståelsen av ett verk kan gestaltas i en grafisk modell.This essay is partly a commentary to my work with the staging of the project "Installagrafi scenotion" which I did in autumn 2013, and partly an investigation in how the dramaturgical understanding of a staged artwork can be displayed through a graphic model.
Studiens syfte är att ge en bild av hur lärare i gehörs- och musiklära 1 (GeMu 1) väljer och arbetar med läromedel till kursen. Studiens fokus ligger på hur lärares tolkning av styrdokumenten påverkar läromedelsurvalet, samt hur kollegiala samarbetsformer spelar in när lärare väljer läromedel. Studien består av fem intervjuer i vilka GeMu-lärare har berättat om deras val av läromedel samt hur styrThe study aims to provide a picture of how teachers in music theory and ear training choose and work with teaching material for the upper secondary school course “Gehörs- och musiklära 1”, which translates into “Ear training and music theory 1”. The focus of the study is on how the teachers' interpretations of the national governing documents affects the selection of teaching material, and how
Popular science summary: Climate change, and its effect on nature, is presently a hot research topic. Many studies have focused on the effect of recent climate change on breeding and spring migration in birds. Several bird populations have been shown to advance migration or breeding. It has been suggested that if they do not do this they might miss optimal breeding conditions such as peak food av
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur sångpedagoger i olika genrer förhåller sig till röstkategorisering av den kvinnliga sångrösten.
