The purpose of this report is to evaluate a direct driven permanent magnet motor in high accuracy position and low speed operation. Actuation in this case is usually accomplished by stepping motors combined with belts and pulleys. High accuracy positioning is considered to be within 0.1 degrees and low speed 0.05 degrees per second, while at the same time have a 180 degree step response within 0.5

Effekten av temperatur på kaseinmicellstruktur i kaseinmicellkoncentrat. Anders Lindqvist: 2015 Med mål om att optimera produktionen av koncentrerade mjölkproteinlösningar och att få bättre kunskap om mjölkproteinet, kasein, och hur det påverkas av temperaturförändringar studerades förändringarna av koncentrerad mjölkproteinlösning efter att ha blivit utsatt för olika temperaturer. De förändrinThe viscosity of concentrated casein solutions play a vital part in the product quality of medical nutrition as well as for the energy consumption in spray drying. Previous work has shown that a lower viscosity can be achieved through processing (Hemar et al. 2011). This project focused on the effect on temperatures on micellar casein isolate (MCI). A temperature range of 5-90 °C has been studied

Research on financial crises is important and especially relevant nowadays when the economy is slowing down globally. The crisis 2007-8 and the Great Depression of the 20th century are the longest and most severe financial calamities ever experienced and they share some eerie similarities with the Panic of 1857 – they all originate in the US but have international implications because they take pl

Den termiska klimatupplevelsen påverkas mest av lufttemperaturen som är enkel att mäta med en vanlig termometer, men för att ta reda på hur temperaturen i ett rum upplevs räcker det inte med att enbart undersöka lufttemperaturen. Även om lufttemperaturen ligger på en komfortabel nivå så kan en kall yta i närheten få personen att känna att det är kyligt i rummet och på motsvarande sätt kan varma ytThe thermal climate experience is most affected by air temperature that is easy to measure with a standard thermometer, but to find out how the temperature in a room is felt it is not enough to merely examine the air temperature. Even if the air temperature is at a comforta-ble level, then a cold surface near get the person to feel that it is chilly in the room and cor-respondingly the hot surface

The objective of this study is to analyse the possible relationship between competition and innovation using Statitics Sweden Community Innovation Survey 2012. The dependent variable innovation is measured in terms of expenditure on R&D and obtained numbers of patents. The independent variable competition is measured in terms of a Herfindahl-Hirschman index and two Lerner-index, one at industr

År 2005 började europeisk industri- och energiproduktion handla med utsläppsrätter i handelssystemet EU ETS. Tanken är att marknaden kommer minska koldioxidutsläppen där priset för utsläppsminskningar är lägst, och den Europeiska kommissionen beskriver EU ETS som ett nyskapande och kostnadseffektivt styrmedel. Men flera företag i mineralbranschen upplever utsläppshandeln som krångligt och orättvisThe European Union Emissions Trade System (EU ETS) is the central climate political tool for reduction of carbon dioxide emissions within the union, and is still the largest emissions trading system in the world ten years after the launch in 2005. One of the industry branches included in the system is the mineral branch: the production of cement, lime, glass, ceramics and mineral wool. These indus

Inom bilindustrin utvecklas kontinuerligt nya sätt att förbättra kvalitén, säkerheten och komforten i de bilarna man producerar, speciellt inom den avancerade kategori bilar som Volvo Car Corporation (VCC) framställer. Detta har lett till att man i allt större grad använder sig av lim, eller fästmedel, av så kallade polymerer som visat sig vara mycket användbara för att dämpa ljud och vibrationer.The occurrence of deformations on the surface of adhesively-bonded automotive body panels in proximity to the application of the polymer adhesive is called bond-line read-through (BLRT) and occurs due to process-induced differential thermal strains between the adhesive layer and metal substrate. This type of deformation is a major problem in the automotive industry and one Volvo Car Corporation, w

There are many applications of microprocessors in embedded applications, where power efficiency becomes a critical requirement, e.g. wearable or mobile devices in healthcare, space instrumentation and handheld devices. One of the methods of achieving low power operation is by simplifying the device architecture. RISC/CISC processors consume considerable power because of their complexity, which is

The study of the naturalization decision process have gained more attention in the field of economics and migration in recent years. This primarily relates to examining whether certain contextual and structural socioeconomic characteristics can explain the probability for immigrants of becoming citizens in their new country. However, there have been little research on this decision process in an h

Den här uppsatsen behandlar svensk nationalism i kontexten av programserien ’Allt för Sverige’. Med avstamp i Benedict Anderson teoretiska begrepp ’print capitalism’ diskuteras programseriens funktion som del i svenskt nationskapande. Följande argumenteras det för hur det finns en ambivalens för vad som ryms i konceptet nationell identitet i det moderna Sverige.

This research has been inspired by my interest in theater. I decided to explore the connection between the disciplines of media studies and anthropology of performance through the particular case study. The case is the Russian-Chinese pipeline construction through the sacred Ukok plateau in Altai. It threatens the environmental and cultural uniqueness of this area and small indigenous population o

I denna uppsats undersöker jag Scanlons värdeteori, med fokus på hans syn på intrinsikalt värde, och då framför allt frågan huruvida människolivet kan sägas ha intrinsikalt värde. Genom att först grundligt presentera Scanlons värdeteori – hans hänskjutande redogörelse för värde (eng. Buck-Passing) - och sedan släppa fram kritiska röster, resonerar jag mig fram till en grund att stå på i denna värd

The thesis introduces a range of communication protocols used to implementing smart homes currently available on the market. Two protocols are chosen and theoretically analysed in depth. The analysis both describes how the protocols works and describes the measures taken in order to protect it against attacks from third parties. The theoretical evaluation analyses how susceptible the protocols are

Is there a discrepancy between what employees desire their managers to be and how they perceive their managers? And if so, does this discrepancy affect their organisational identification? To suggest answers to these questions, using a deductive quantitative approach, we asked employees to firstly, rate the traits they perceived their current managers to have and the traits they desired in their m

Tara Mellquist Kan klimatanpassning användas som ett ekonomiskt styrmedel? Effekter av en klimatförändring i Stockholms län kan exemplifieras av ett förändrat nederbördsmönster, mer extrema väderhändelser och av en ökad havsnivå. Dessa effekter påverkar länets infrastruktur och bebyggelse, samtidigt som befolkningsmängden och exploateringstrycket i regionen ökar. Konsekvenser att ett förändratAs a result of climate change the county of Stockholm will experience a change in precipitation patterns, more extreme weather events and a rise in sea level. To learn if the financial sector works with climate change adaptation and if climate change adaptation can be used as a management control measure, a study has been conducted in complement to this thesis. Three subsectors, the insurance sect

Anaerobic processes are an interesting alternative to treat wastewaters instead of aerobic treatments as it allows recovery of energy with the produced biogas while removing organic matter. In the industry, lots of low-strength industrial wastewaters are available and unused for biogas production due to their low concentration of organic material and high volumes (slaughterhouse wastewaters, dairi

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the increased use of the communication channels provided by Internet affect production and distribution cycles of the fashion system, and what the consequences this development will have on the fashion concept. It is crucial for all producers in the fashion industry to take this development into consideration in order to anticipate the changes that migh

The so-called “Healthy Immigrant Effect” (HIE) is based on two complementary hypotheses: i) immigrants who recently arrived to a new country present a better health than the native-born population with similar socio-demographic characteristics; ii) immigrant´s health deteriorates faster than that of the native-born and converges towards native-born levels with the years lived in the host country.
