Sydvatten är ett företag som ägs av 16 kommuner i Skåne och producerar dricksvatten till dessa. En av sydvattens vattentäkter är Vombsjön. Sydväst om Vombsjön ligger Vombverket där beredning från sjövatten till dricksvatten sker. De första stegen av beredningen sker genom att vatten från sjön pumpas in till Vombverkets infiltrationsdammar och därifrån infiltrerar ned genom den omättade zonen till Sydvatten is a company part-owned by 16 different municipalities in Skåne, south of Sweden. Sydvatten produces drinking water to these municipalities and the Vombsjö lake is one of Sydvatten´s water catchments. Southwest from the lake the water treatment installation Vombverket is found. At Vombverket the water from the lake Vombsjön is processed to drinking water. The water from the lake goes thr

The main goal of this project was to find out if objects can be given healing properties, to identify such a property and later incoprporate it in the design of an object. The final design should be realized in a full scale prototype in order to fully be able to test and analyze the result. Research was carried out in a wide research field of psychology, philosphy and religiosity in order to iden

One could argue that the responsibility of a designer increases the more consumptionbased society gets. When we focus on norms and stereotypes such as gender in the design process, it’s easy to create exclusion. By having a discussion around gender in design education, we do not only highlight the issue, we can also start to create new ways of thinking around design. With the help of my product wh

This report details the process around the makings of a board game made for the Degree Project for Bachelor of Arts in Industrial Design, spring semester 2014. The game has a background story, which is to simulate the parliamentary workings of a society teetering on the edge between autocracy and democracy and the factional struggles within its parliament. The background story sets the premise of

The original intention of this project was to explore electronic kitchenware, remove the motor of the individual gadget and build a series of hand-cranked versions of the gadgets. After initial interviews and research into food, kitchen architecture, kitchenware, trends and time measurement statistics, it became clear that induction was a technology on the rise and is quickly moving into modern ki

I början av 2013 kontaktade studenterna Danfoss Power Solutions (då Sauer- Danfoss) i Älmhult. Företaget planerade att genomföra ett Goodwill-projekt åt ARCC (Anders Rick Utbildning AB) i Ljungby. Projektets mål var att utrusta en minigrävare med ett digitalt styrsystem som ersätter delar av det mekaniska/hydrauliska styrsystemet. Minigrävaren skulle användas som utbildningsplattform då ARCC lär uAt the start of 2013 Danfoss Power Solutions (formerly Sauer-Danfoss) in Älmhult was contacted by the students. They were planning a Goodwill project for ARCC (Anders Rick Utbildning AB) in Ljungby. The goal of the project was to equip a mini excavator with a digital control system that would replace part of the existing mechanical/hydraulical control system. The mini excavator would be used as an

Like an Office is a project about leaving the school premises and meeting people with a different perspective on design. We have been working for local entrepreneurs and organizations to explore what non-designers expect from us as prospective professionals. We started off by taking on smaller tasks that were delivered to clients on an agreed deadline. As the project progressed we developed the “

This project focuses on understanding creativity and its surroundings, along with the effects it can have on the mind. The goal was to inspire individuals to grow both physically & mentally throughout their creative processes. Research has been done through books, videos, articles, Internet and discussions. As well as an interview at a company about their creative workplace. Other research was

This study questions the received wisdom that surviving Old Norse loanwords in modern Irish are fewer than 50 in number and are mostly shipping-related. The eventual goal is a complete survey of all Old Norse loanwords still “in common use in modern Irish” (Greene 1976: 80), since nothing of the sort has been found in the literature. In the interim, this study proposes a list of 67 words, extant i

Contemporary urban movements in Sweden emerge and are primary active in so-called million program neighborhoods. Many of these neighborhoods are some of the most deprived and socially vulnerable areas in Sweden. Million program neighborhoods have been objects for external descriptions ever since they were built. Depicted, on the one hand as “the heart" of diversity in Swedish society, and on

Ny upptäckt kan tyda på att antalet malaria parasiter är betydligt fler än vad man tidigare trott Malaria orsakar en infektions sjukdom och klassas som en av väldens mest dödliga sjukdomar, uppskattningsvis avlider runt 1 miljon människor årligen av sjukdomen. Malaria parasiten som sprider sjukdomen har en mycket avancerad livscykel som involverar två olika faser, där den ena fasen genomförs i etThe avian malaria parasite Haemoproteus majoris is a generalist, infecting a broad range of host species and is prevalent worldwide. Parasite species infecting a wide host range and with a global distribution should hold several different genetic variants. In this study, novel molecular markers were developed to amplify partial segments of the nuclear genes circumsporozoite- and TRAP-related prote

This master’s dissertation aims to investigate testing of anchors in general, and anchors installed in limestone in particular. A detailed study of the various types of anchors has been completed, as a study of the European standard – EN 1537 – of anchors and the testing of such constructions. A case study has been conducted where three anchors were installed in the limestone in Malmö, and then te

Issue of Study: The case company, Metius, has difficulties in meeting its customers’ demands for delivery reliability due to issues in the final assembly process. A leading management control system linked to the company’s final assembly could allow the production management to act proactively and avoid more dissatisfied customers due to poor delivery reliability. Relevant literature gives little

In the budding yeast, S. cerevisiae, mitochondrial distribution involves movements of the organelle from the mother cell to the bud (anterograde movement) and from the bud to the mother (retrograde movement). Both types of movements require actin cables, dynamic bundles of F-actin filaments, which undergo continuous retrograde flow from the bud into the mother and provide tracks for mitochondrial

The aim of this thesis is to analyze large datasets with mathematical modeling and frequency analysis. The models used were polynomials and trigonometric polynomials. These were applied on a sample dataset with 377 data points. Another dataset with approximately 2.6 million data points was also tested with a model of first degree polynomial and trigonometric polynomials with different number of do

This essay explores two approaches to finding existential meaning in religion: either by an approach advocating feelings of mystery and sensuous immediacy, thus justifying an ineffability of mysterious experiences, or by an approach which advocates truth and objectivity. Although the latter approach views truth in existential terms (“existential truth”) it can be criticised for diminishing the “ma

This thesis is a study of development and international aid institutions and practices undertaken to give form and substance to international development as a cultural product. In a climate of changing policy priorities and the prospective loss of government backing for international development NGOs, this thesis uses applied cultural analysis to develop knowledge of the support network of NGO A,

The introduction of distributed control systems in the process industry has increased the number of alarms per operator exponentially. Modern plants present a high level of interconnectivity due to steam recirculation, heat integration and the complex control systems installed in the plant. When there is a disturbance in the plant it spreads through its material, energy and information connections
