Inom film och TV branschen har begreppet produktplacering existerat i flera årtionden och har fungerat som en effektiv marknadsföringsmetod för företag som velat göra reklam för sina produkter och tjänster. Syftet med produktplacering är att konsumenter ska uppfatta det kommersiella budskapet utan att vara medvetna om vad de utsätts för. Produktplacering har på senare år blivit alltmer subtil och

A small wind power plant connected to the grid has been modeled in Modelica/ Dymola and controlled using external controllers written in C++. The small wind power plant consists of three wind power units with a nominal power of 3kW and one grid connection interconnected with an internal DCgrid. All the controls needed for control and optimization for the operation of the individual parts in the pl

I denna uppsats studerar jag hur manlighet konstrueras inom en grupp arbetare, närmare bestämt typografer. Materialet som ligger till grund för analysen är dessa typografers berättelser rörande deras yrkesverksamma tid. Syftet är att med Laclau & Mouffes diskursteori studera vad som konstituerar manlighet och hur den konstrueras i typografernas texter. Manlighetsforskarna Mosse samt Ekenstam &

LYCCA is a detector system consisting of different types of detectors which can be used flexibly to meet the individual requirements of different experiments focused on studying exotic nuclei far off the line of stability. It was developed for the HISPEC/DESPEC programme which is part of the NUSTAR collaboration at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany. T

Increasing heavy traffic on the roads raises demands on pavements and especially the binder of the pavements. The rutting and other deformations resistances are constantly improved. As a part of the development wax mixes and polymer modified variants are produced. These products are not anymore possible to classify with traditional test methods, requiring new measurement technique and new criteria

There are only a few construction projects that include a Logistic Manager today. In many cases the profit is hard to see, since the involving tasks in logistics are the same even if there is a Logistic Manager included in the project or not. It may seem like the job is already taken care of and that a Logistic Manager therefore would be unnecessary. Even though the project tasks are the same, the

The aim of this master thesis was to conduct a concept study to optimize SCAN COINs Coin Acceptance Module (CAM) with focus on cost reduction and a shortened assembly time. SCAN COIN is one of the world leading companies for cash processing machines. The CAM is a central component in most of SCAN COINs machines and is the component in which coin counting and sorting takes place. There are two vari

This paper empirically investigates the relationship between product market competition and innovation in seven European countries for the period 1987-2006. To approximate change in competition level three measures are considered: mark-up level, import penetration and the number of firms on the market. Innovation is measured as R&D intensity. The analysis shows that effect of product market co

Skövde Värmeverk AB is a company owned by the municipality of Skövde. The objective of the companyis to produce environmentally friendly electricity and heating for buildings in the municipality.Lövängsverket is one of the company⁳ two main thermal plants. Its chief fuel is woodchips, but oil is usedas an alternative fuel. The objective of this master thesis is to perform an environmental review o

The aim of this master thesis is to evaluate energy balances for the production of liquid biogas, LBG.LBG can be produced in two main ways and these are by means; cryogenic upgrading technology andconventional technologies connected with a small-scale liquefaction plant. A third alternative is to injectbiogas into the gas grid and then liquefy a part-flow at a pressure letdown station.The cryogeni

Syftet med studien var dels att undersöka om, och i så fall hur, miljöskyddsåtgärder föreslagna i MKB för arbetsplan inarbetas i projekteringshandlingar och genomförs av entrepenören i svenska vägprojekt, dels att utvärdera hur de i MKB-dokumenten förutsagda konsekvenserna stämmer överens med det faktiska resultatet. Tre naturmiljöaspekter valdes ut för det praktiska uppföljningsarbetet: ingrepp i

Direktivet 2001/42/EG om bedömning av vissa planers och programs miljöpåverkan antogs av Europeiska Gemenskapen år 2001 och implementerades fullt ut i svensk lagstiftning år 2005. Enligt svenska lag ska en miljökonsekvensbeskrivning (MKB) genomföras för detaljplaner som om de genomförs innebär betydande miljöpåverkan. Syftet med det här examensarbetet var att identifiera och analysera olika kommun

The purpose of this study is to contribute to the expanding literature that associates early childhood conditions to future outcomes. Using the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey, we will try to provide further empirical evidence to the question whether early-life health and nutritional status has impact on earnings into young adulthood for the case of the metropolitan area of Cebu in P

This Master thesis was conducted at ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems AB (TKMS AB), formerly known as Kockums AB. TKMS AB is based in Malmö, Sweden and is a manufacturer of conventionally powered submarines. The next generation of submarines, type A26, is currently under development and introduces many new features compared to prior submarine designs. Following increased fire and sound reduction demands

The waste treatment facility, Sobacken, is located south of Borås, Sweden. At Sobacken there is a lake built to collect the leachate from the area. Leachate is a term for water that has the potential of carrying environmentally hazardous substances, in this case water that might have passed through waste. This thesis focused on the development of a hydrological model that from common climate vari

This thesis examines the emerging scene of ensemble playing in Swedish traditional music from the beginning of the 1980s until present day. It is focused around eight interviews with some of the most influential musicians on the scene. All of them are still active today both as performers and teachers. The theoretical framework is mainly based around two different standpoints; Narrative analysis a
