Skådeplatsen för detta projekt är Marieholms yllefabrik. En fabrik och ett samhälle med många fina kvaliteter men som av olika skäl inte utnyttjas av så många. Vår uppgift har varit att transformera den gamla fabriken. Jag har valt att göra om den, med särskilt fokus på fyra byggnader vid det gamla väveriet, till en folkhögskola för dans, teater och musik – Marieholms Kulturfabrik. Stort fokus har

Background: International trade has evolved from a barter system to the current global marketplace of international business and with that teams has evolved with this trend from regular co-located teams to Global Virtual Teams (GVTs). Tuckman’s team development model was introduced to estimate regular team performance of therapy groups and is widely used both in academia and by practitioners today

The annual number of events with precipitation over 50 mm/h have increased from 1970s and this trend is likely to be continued due to climate change in Kyushu, Japan. Therefore, it is important to recognize what kind of meteorological fields have contributed to the occurrence of heavy rainfall events and to reveal whether it is possible to diagnose heavy rainfall risk. Firstly, this study combines

In the medical industry, environmental considerations have lagged behind in order to focus on patient safety. A combination of both should be possible to achieve. In this report, focus have been on how environmental impacts can be lowered from disposable biomedical devices. In order to quantify the impact from a product, the method Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was used which gives a full life-cycle

Psykiatriska diagnoser leder till längre sjukskrivningar än de flesta andra sjukdomar och sjukfallslängden har ökat över tid. En av de främsta orsakerna till detta är utmattningssyndrom [UMS]. UMS kännetecknas bland annat av social isolering. Gemenskaper på internet för individer som lider av utmattningssyndrom är dock välbesökta. Med netnografisk explorativ ansats undersöktes en privat Facebookg

Climate change poses major threats to both the planet and human welfare. As more than 60% of the global greenhouse gas emissions can be derived from household consumption, the unsustainability of our current consumption patterns is evident. In an attempt to mitigate climate change, carbon footprint calculators have been introduced aiming to raise awareness and directly illustrate the negative envi

Studien strävar efter att ta reda på hur rädsla för brott ser ut i ett ruralt område som nyligen utsatts för grova brott. Detta har undersökts genom intervjuer med sex butiksägare som alla blivit utsatta för brott och där två har utsatts för de grova brotten som studien utgår ifrån. Datan har tolkats med hjälp av DuBows m.fl. uppdelning av riskbedömning, värdering och emotioner. Alla respondenter

Modular construction has recently become a renowned method of building. Many studies have been conducted on the benefits of modular construction; however, the available literature on its potential downsides is scarce. This study aims to evaluate the sources of potential embodied carbon inefficiencies of a modular multifamily residential building in San Diego, California. Quantity takeoffs and life

The aim of this study was to examine how the Swedish Court takes the will of the child in consideration, regarding legal decisions during custody disputes. Eight documented rulings have been reviewed from 2019 and 2020. A thematic content analysis has been made on eight of the rulings. The purpose of the analysis was to interpret the ruling decision process in the light of Convention on the rights

The purpose of this thesis is to present what weather protection is used for in wooden constructions and to investigate, evaluate and compare different weather protection available on the market today with a focus on their quality, function, user-friendliness, price and impact on the work environment. This project is divided into two parts. The first part is a literature study to gain a greater in

Research shows that people living in socially disadvantaged areas have lower trust in the judiciary system and that the willingness to testify for crimes linked to criminal networks is low. The purpose of this study is to acquire further knowledge about the police perspective on working with these problems mentioned above. Our aim is to examine how they motivate witnesses and plaintiffs to coopera

Att bygga material av proteiner är en konst som våra kroppar är specialister på. Men när vi medvetet försöker designa proteinmaterial, så blir det tydligt hur komplexa och svårstyrda biofysikens lagar är. Det här examensarbetet har som mål att lägga grunden för ett proteinmaterial som kan skapas eller dissociera som respons på förändrad Ca2+-koncentration. Om ett sådant material kan framställas meTo build materials of proteins is an art that nature is a specialists in. But when we actively try to design protein materials, it becomes clear how complex and hard to control the biophysical world is. This master thesis aims to lay the foundation for a protein material that forms and dissociates as a response to changed Ca2+ concentration. If such a material is to be produced with an ordered str

The project’s focus is on the protein galectin-8N and crystallizing it with lactose and a novel ligand, MH1. The question for the project comes from previous work that shows that galectin-8N has an empty pocket on the surface of the protein. A novel ligand was designed to improve the affinity to the protein through potential interactions between the chlorophenyl group in the ligand and a pocket on

This essay examines the typographic discussions in Sweden around the turn of the 20th century. The focus lies on Gothenburg-based printer Waldemar Zachrisson, a driving force in these matters. The starting-point of the study is the industrialization of the printing in the 19th century, when printing changed from being a craft to being a largely mechanical process. Several voices from the turn of t
