Abstract:

XXI amžiuje visuomenės dėmesys savo gyvenamosios aplinkos gražinimui gerokai padidėjo. Tai, ko gero, paskatino padidėjęs augalų asortimentas, tinkamas auginti loveliuose, kubiluose ar pakabinamuose induose. Apželdinti daugiabučių gyvenamųjų namų langai ir balkonai šiais laikais jau nėra retenybė, tačiau gerų pavyzdžių dar yra gerokai mažiau nei blogų. Gėlių dekoratyvumas priklauso ne vien nuo parinktų gražių gėlių. Svarbu gėles ne tik tinkamai sukomponuoti, bet ir atsižvelgti į supančią aplinką. Kompozicinę vertę lemia balkono aukštis ir apžvalgumas, gėlių spalvų deriniai, lapų faktūra, komponavimas pagal žydėjimo laiką ir gėlių išdėstymo tvarka. Darbo objektu pasirinkti skirtingų statybos laikmečių (1960 – 2007 m.), gėlėmis apsodinti Šiaulių miesto pietinės dalies daugiabučių namų balkonai ir lauko palangės. Šio tyrimo tikslas buvo išanalizuoti daugiabučių namų balkonų ir palangių želdinimo ypatumus Šiaulių miesto pietinėje dalyje. Atliekant tyrimą Šiaulių miesto pietinėje dalyje buvo siekiama išsiaiškinti ar balkonų ir lauko palangių želdinimui turi įtakos namo statybos laikmetis. Tyrimo metu buvo nustatytas balkonuose ir ant palangių auginamų augalų asortimentas iki genties. Aprašyti gėlių lovelių ir kitų indų tvirtinimo būdai, jų spalva, užfiksuotas jų kiekis balkonuose ir ant palangės. Išanalizavus gautus tyrimo duomenis, nustatyta, kad naujos statybos t.y. 2000 - 2007 m. namų balkonai yra želdinami gausiausiai (13 %), o apželdintų palangių daugiausiai aptikta...

In the twenty-first century, public attention to the repayment of their living environment has grown considerably. This probably led to an increased range of plants suitable for different containers. Planted windows and balconies of the apartment houses, these days it is no longer a rarity, but good examples are still significantly less than the blogosphere. Decorative flower depends not only on the selection of beautiful flowers. That it is important not only to compose the flowers, but also it‘s important to take into account the surrounding environment. The height and the visibility of the balcony, combinations of flower colors, the texture of leaf, the composition according to the time of flowering and flower arrangement leads the value of composition. The object of this work was the balconies and the window sills of different construction periods (1960 - 2007 year) apartment houses planted with flowers in the southern part of the city of Siauliai. The purpose of this study was to analyze the afforestation features of balconies and window sills of the apartment houses in the southern part of the city of Siauliai.

Abstract:

Balkonger har funnits i Sverige i över 200 år och är nu på modet. De är i allmänhet utsatta för stora påfrestningar och orsakar ofta en vanlig typ av köldbrygga. I synnerhet de balkonger som byggdes till flerbostadshus i betong under miljonprogrammet måste renoveras. De är byggda med dåtidens teknik vilket innebär att de bildar en köldbrygga. Denna rapport är till för att vägleda fastighetsägare vid en renovering av utanpåliggande balkonger i betong. Metoder på marknaden har undersökts med hjälp av intervjuer och litteraturstudier. Kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes med en kunnig konstruktör, en betongexpert, en beläggningsexpert, en rutinerad förvaltare samt en expert på balkongräcken. Rapporten beskriver betong och armering, dess uppbyggnad och egenskaper. Balkongers olika skador beskrivs. De skador som kan uppkomma är frostsprängningar, armeringskorrosion, kemiska angrepp, sprickor samt nötning. Balkongers varierande uppbyggnad från sent 1800-tal till dagens teknik förklaras med hjälp av text och figurer. Beskrivningar ges på balkongers betong, räcken, eventuell köldbrygga samt bärande funktion. Balkongers konstruktion har förändrats, allt från genomgående stålbalkar till isolerade balkonganslutningar. Balkongers kontroller beskrivs, allt från okulära inspektioner till olika prover i laboratorium. Slutligen beskrivs balkongers reparationer beroende på skada. En balkong kan vara för skadad för att repareras. Rapporten ger därför exempel på nya konstruktioner, bland annat genom användning av dragstag och pelare. Arbetets slutsats är att analysen för en balkong ska utgå från enkla frågor angående skadorna samt materialen. Dessa frågor i samråd med kunskap om skador, kontroller och åtgärder är ett lämpligt sätt att bestämma vilka åtgärder som bör tas för en balkong. Det mest väsentliga är att kontrollera balkongens bärande delar så risk för ras eller nedfallande betongbitar kan undvikas.
Balconies have been built in Sweden for over 200 years and are now very popular. They are generally exposed to a lot of strains and are often a common thermal bridge. The balconies at concrete multifamily building from the 1960-1970s need to be renovated, among others. They were built with the technology of the past which means that they have a thermal bridge. The report is made for guiding property owners through the renovation process of an external concrete balcony. It summaries the markets methods based on interviews and literature studies. The interviews where qualitative with the help of: a skilled constructor, a concrete expert, a paving expert, an experienced building manager and a balcony railing expert. The thesis describe concrete and reinforcement; their structure and their properties. A balcony’s different damages are describes. For example, the damages that can occur on concrete are frost weathering, reinforcement corrosion, chemical attrition, cracks and abrasion. Balconies varying construction from late 1800s to today’s technology are explained with text and figures. Descriptions are given on their concrete, rails, any thermal bridge and load baring function. The construction has changed from constant steel beams to isolated balcony connections. How balconies can be checked is described; ranging from ocular inspections to taking different samples to a laboratory. Finally, balconies different repairs due to damage are described. In case the balcony is too damaged to be able to be repaired, there are several examples of how a new construction can be applied. This is often with traction rods and columns. The conclusion of this work is that an analysis for a balcony should proceed from simple questions about the damages and the materials. These questions in consultation with knowledge about damages, controls and corrections are a suitable way to decide which action to make for a balcony. The most important thing is to check the balcony's structural parts so there is no risk of collapse and also that no falling concrete can occur.

Abstract:

Cette thèse s'intéresse au développement de stratégies de décalage de charge pouvant être appliquées à un parc de chauffe-eau Joule (CEJ).On propose une modélisation entrée-sortie du système que constitue le CEJ. L'idée est de concevoir un modèle précis et peu coûteux numériquement, qui pourrait être intégré dans un CEJ intelligent. On présente notamment un modèle phénoménologique multi-période d'évolution du profil de température dans le CEJ ainsi qu'un modèle de la demande en eau chaude. On étudie des stratégies d'optimisation pour un parc de CEJ dont la résistance peut être pilotée par un gestionnaire central. Trois cas de figures sont étudiés. Le premier concerne un petit nombre de ballons intelligents et présente une méthode de résolution d'un problème d'optimisation en temps discret. Puis, on s'intéresse à un parc de taille moyenne. Une heuristique gardant indivisibles les périodes de chauffe (pour minimiser les aléas thermo-hydrauliques) est présentée. Enfin, un modèle de comportement d'un nombre infini de ballon est présenté sous la forme d'une équation de Fokker-Planck
This thesis focuses on the development of advanced strategies for load shifting of large groups of electric hot water tanks (EHWT).The first part of this thesis is dedicated to representing an EHWT as an input-output system. The idea is to design a simple, tractable and relatively accurate model that can be implemented inside a low-power computing unit embedded in a smart EHWT, for practical applications of optimization strategies. It includes in particular a phenomenological multi-period model of the temperature profile in the tank and a realistic domestic hot water consumption model.The second part focuses on the design of optimal control strategies for a group of tanks. Three use-cases are studied. The first one deals with a small number of smart and controllable EHWT for which we propose a discrete-time optimal resolution method. The second use-case adresses a medium-scale group of controllable tanks and proposes a heuristic which keeps the heating period undivided to minimize thermo-hydraulic hazards. Finally, we present the modelling of the behavior of a infinite population of tanks under the form of a Fokker-Planck equation

Abstract:

Objectiu: La malaltia adherent placentària (MAP) és una causa d’hemorràgia postpart severa, amb una pèrdua sanguínia esperada de 3-5L. Ha estat tractada amb cesària i histerectomia peri- part de forma tradicional. S’exposa la nostra experiència amb la inserció profilàctica de catèters balons oclusius percutanis (CBOP) a ambdues artèries ilíaques internes, amb o sense necessitat d’embolització arterial uterina per tal de preservar l’úter de la pacient. Durant el treball de recerca s’ha desenvolupat un nou protocol de tractament conservador multidisciplinar anomenat Triple P procedure. S’avalua els resultats obtinguts des de la implantació d’aquest protocol, així com la necessitat de intervencions futures a dones amb MAP. Material i Mètode: Dos articles han estat publicats a la literatura. El primer va ser publicat al Clinical radiology i inclou vint- i- set pacients diagnosticats perinatalment de MAP amb sospita de placenta percreta que varen ser tractades amb CBOP immediatament abans de realitzar un part per cesària. El segon article és un estudi de cohorts publicat al Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology on es compara 19 dones amb MAP tractades amb el Triple-P protocol (Grup estudi) i 11 tractades amb CBOP i part per cesària (Grup Control). El nombre i volum de transfusions sanguínies, pèrdua sanguínia estimada, la necessitat d’embolització arterial uterina (EAU) i/o la necessitat d’histerectomia han estat recopilades a ambdós articles. Resultats: Placenta percreta va ser confirmada en 19 pacients [sis (54.5%) pacients del Grup Control i 13 (68.4%) del Grup Estudi]. La pèrdua sanguínia mitja estimada va ser menor al Grup Estudi que en el Grup Control (1.70 L vs 2.17 L, respectivament), però la diferència no va ser estadísticament significativa (P=0.445). El risc d’hemorràgia postpart (HPP) i la necessitat d’histerectomia van disminuir de forma estadísticament significativa en el Grup Estudi (HPP, 54.5% vs 15.8%; P=0.035; histerectomia, 27.3% vs 0.0%; P=0.045). Com a conseqüència, es va observar una disminució estadísticament significativa en l’estada hospitalària de les pacients del Grup estudi (P=0.044). Conclusió: Els CBOP amb o sense EAU contribueixen a la disminució de la pèrdua sanguínia i del risc d’histerectomia peripart a les pacients amb MAP. La introducció del Triple-P procedure disminueix de forma significativa el risc d’histerectomia, HPP i estada hospitalària a aquestes pacients.
Aim: Morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) is a cause of severe postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) with expected blood loss of 3-5L. Traditionally, this has been treated by caesarean hysterectomy. We report our experience of prophylactic occlusion balloon catheters (POBC) in both internal iliac arteries before caesarean section, with or without embolisation to preserve the uterus and reduce haemorrhage. During our research we developed a new multidisciplinary conservative protocol of treatment involving POBC and placental non-separation, myometrial excision and reconstruction of the uterine wall called Triple P procedure. We also evaluate patient outcomes and need for further interventions in women with MAP, before and after introduction of the Triple-P procedure. Methods and Materials: Two articles have published in the literature. The first one was publish at Clinical radiology and includes twenty-seven women diagnosed with MAP and with suspected placenta percreta underwent POBCs before caesarean section. The second article is a cohort study published at Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology and compares 19 women with MAP treated with the Triple-P protocol (study group) and 11 treated with POBC and caesarean (control group). The quantity of blood replacement products, estimated blood loss, and necessity for uterine arterial embolization and/or hysterectomy were recorded retrospectively in both articles. Results: Placenta percreta was confirmed in 19 patients [six (54.5%) patients in the control group and 13 (68.4%) in the study group]. Estimated mean blood loss during the procedure was lower in the study group than in the control group (1.70 L vs 2.17 L, respectively), but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.445). The risks of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and hysterectomy were statistically significantly lower in the study group (PPH, 54.5% vs 15.8%; P=0.035; hysterectomy, 27.3% vs 0.0%; P=0.045). As a consequence, there was a significant decrease in duration of inpatient stay in the study group (P=0.044). Conclusion: POBC with or without UAE, contributes to reduction in blood loss and preservation of the uterus in women with MAP Introduction of the Triple-P procedure conveyed a significantly reduced rate of hysterectomy, PPH and duration of hospital stay in patients with MAP.

Abstract:

Abstrakt.Syftet med denna studie är att ta reda på vad som kan göras i trädgårds- och balkongmiljöer för solitära bins överlevnad, då arter redan gått förlorade eller är rödlistade på grund av dåliga förutsättningar i fråga om habitat. Hur kan utformningen av designförslag se ut för trädgård och balkong? Vad innehåller lämpliga habitat samt hur ser hotbilden ut för solitära bin? Målet med denna litteraturstudie var att finna svar på mina frågeställningar. Utifrån de fakta som framkommit från resultaten har sedan designförslag utformats för trädgårds- och balkongmiljöer. Ökad biotopyta från forna tiders mosaiklandskap kan i ny tappning utformas som trädgårds- och balkongmiljöer i form av giftfria och blomrika små ängar, blommande kantzoner, diken och rabatter, krukväxter, blommande träd och buskar. Solitära bin behöver husrum, vatten att dricka och mat att äta i form av nektar- och pollenrika växter. De behöver blommande växter från tidig vår till sen höst för att överleva. Viktigt att sprida kunskap och förståelse för hur solitära bin lever sina liv så att människor kan samarbeta för att nå långsiktiga hållbara habitatlösningar. Solitära bin behöver många blommande växtytor som kan fungera som spridningskorridorer in i de urbana miljöerna där varenda liten kvadratmeter blommande yta har betydelse. Solitära bin ökar i antal med ökad biotopyta är fakta som designförslagen baserats på. Förödande hot för solitära bin är bland annat blombrist i urbana miljöer, besprutning med olika gifter, tambin som sprider sjukdomar, människans rädsla för små kryp samt förändrade livsmiljöer.
Abstract. The purpose of this study is to find out what can be done in gardens and balconies for solitary bees survival, species have already been lost or are red-listed because of poor conditions in terms of habitat. What can design-proposals look like for gardens and balconies? What do suitable habitats contain and what do threats look like for solitary bees?The goal with this literature study was to find answers to my questions. Based on facts that emerged from the results, design proposals have been made for gardens and balconies. Increased biotope-surface from ancient times mosaic-landscape can in modern environments like gardens and balconies be designed as non-toxic and flower-rich meadows, flowering border zones, ditches and flower beds, potted plants, flowering trees and shrubs. Solitary bees need shelter, water to drink and food to eat as in nectar and pollen-rich plants. They need flowering plants from early spring to late autumn to survive. It´s important to spread knowledge and understanding how solitary bees live their lives, that people can cooperate to achieve long-term sustainable habitat solutions. Solitary bees need many flowering plant-surfaces that can act as dispersal corridors in to urban environments, where every single square meter flowering-surface is of importance. Solitary bees increase in number with increasing biotope-surfaces which are facts that design proposals are based on. Devastating threats for solitary bees are floral shortage in urban areas, spraying with various poisons, domestic bees spreading diseases, human fear of small insects and altered habitats.

Abstract:

Ce travail de thèse porte sur les ondes de gravité se propageant dans la basse stratosphère polaire. L’étude utilise les observations enregistrées par des ballons pressurisés de longue durée lors de la campagne Vorcore entre septembre 2005 et janvier 2006. La méthodologie développée s’appuie sur les différentes relations théoriques qui lient les perturbations de pression, de température et de vitesses enregistrées. Elle permet de déduire la direction horizontale de propagation, la vitesse de phase intrinsèque et le flux vertical de quantité de mouvement horizontal transporté par les ondes de gravité. La méthodologie a été testée et validée sur des simulations comportant une ou plusieurs ondes de gravité. En appliquant cette approche aux données Vorcore, les distributions géographiques et temporelles de ces flux ont été étudiées et les sources potentielles des ondes de gravité ont été examinées de même que leur intermittence. Nous avons montré que les montagnes sont des sources d'ondes de gravité prépondérantes, mais nous avons également mis en évidence l'importance des sources non-orographiques au-dessus des océans. Les échelles spatio-temporelles des ondes de gravité sont faibles, c’est pourquoi elles sont paramétrées dans les modèles de circulation générale. Nous avons comparé les flux observés lors de la campagne Vorcore aux flux produits par deux paramétrisations d’ondes de gravité : la première représente les sources d’ondes orographiques (Lott and Miller,1997) et la seconde décrit les sources d’ondes non-orographiques (Hines, 1997). Dans un deuxième temps, les observations de la campagne Vorcore ont été comparées aux analyses ECMWF et aux réanalyses NCEP/NCAR pour en estimer la fiabilité. Les biais et les écarts types obtenus suggèrent une prise en compte insuffisante des ondes de gravité dans les modèles et une mauvaise représentation du vortex polaire dans les réanalyses NCEP/NCAR.

Abstract:

The liquefaction of algae for the recovery of bio–oil was studied. Algae oil is a non–edible feedstock and has minimal impact on food security and food prices; furthermore, it has been identified as a favourable feedstock for the production of biodiesel and this is attributed to its high oil yield per hectare. Algae oil can be potentially used for fuel blending for conventional diesel. The recovery step for algae oil for the production of biodiesel is costly and demands a lot of energy due to the high water content and size of the algae organism. In this study hydrothermal liquefaction was used for the recovery of oil from algae biomass. Hydrothermal liquefaction uses high water activity in sub–critical water conditions to convert wet biomass to liquid fuel which makes the process more cost effective than pyrolysis and gasification in terms of energy savings on biomass drying costs. The main objective of this study was to determine suitable liquefaction reaction conditions (reaction temperature, biomass loading and reaction atmosphere) for producing bio–oil from algae and identifying the effects of these conditions on bio–oil yield and properties. Bio–oil properties are a good indication of the quality of the oil product and the significance of the liquefaction reaction conditions. The experiments were carried out in a SS316 stainless steel high pressure autoclave. An environmental scanning electron microscope with integrated energy dispersive spectroscopy was used for the characterisation of the raw algae biomass. The algae biomass was liquefied in water at various temperatures ranging from 280 to 360°C, at different biomass loadings (3 to 9 wt %) and a 5 wt% potassium hydroxide (KOH) for all experiments. The reaction time was held constant at 30 minutes in all experiments performed under CO2 and N2 atmospheres. Chloroform was used to recover the bio–oil oil from the reaction mixture following liquefaction, and the bio–oil was purified by removing chloroform using a vacuum distillation process. The bio–oil sample was methylated to the fatty methyl esters using trimethyl sulfonium hydroxide solution to determine its composition using gas chromatography. The elemental composition of the bio–oil was analysed using a Flash 2000 organic analyser. The main organic components of the bio–oil were determined using Fourier–transform infrared (FT–IR) spectroscopy. The oil yield was found to be dependent on reaction temperature and biomass loading when liquefaction was done in an inert environment, showing a significant increase at high temperatures and biomass ii loadings. Biomass loading had no significant influence on bio–oil yields at high temperatures in a reducing atmosphere and an average oil yield of 25.28 wt% and 20.91 wt% was obtained under a CO2 atmosphere and a N2 atmosphere at 360°C, respectively. Higher yields of C16 fatty acid were obtained at 320°C at a 3 wt% biomass loading in a CO2 atmosphere. The FTIR analyses showed the presence of oxygenated compounds such as phenols, ketones, aldehydes and ethers. The bio–oil had a reduced O/C ratio as compared to that in the original feedstock, with improved heating values. The reduction in the O/C ratio in the bio–oil indicated that deoxygenation occurred during liquefaction and that the bio–oil produced has good properties for combustion. This study indicates that the bio–oil is well suited for further processing to biodiesel because of the high C16 fatty acid content. Hydrothermal liquefaction could thus be a feasible method for producing bio–oil from Scenedesmus acutus.

Abstract:

Currently there is limited design guidance for calculation that involves an unchannelled balcony spill plume. The current guidance for unchannelled spill plume can be obtained from CIBSE (TM19) and BS PD 7974 (Part 2). The guidance is a result of an analysis performed by Law (1995) on a set of experiments performed by Hansell et al (1993). Recently a series of unchannelled balcony spill plume experiments have been performed by Harrison (2009) at 1/10th-scale as part of a research project. Harrison (2009) developed a simplified design formula to calculate the mass flow rate from unchannelled spill plume. Results from Harrison suggested that an unchannelled balcony spill plume is a complex problem and his experiments were limited by the experimental facility. Harrison (2009) recommended that this problem should be supported with computer modelling for design. Research from Harrison (2009) also resulted in a correlation that can be used to calculate the effective width of an unchannelled balcony spill plume. This research is primarily a numerical simulation of the unchannelled balcony spill plume using Fire Dynamics Simulator 5 version 5.3.0 (FDS 5). FDS 5 was used to model unchannelled balcony spill plume experiments performed by Harrison (2009) at 1/10th-scale. Results from Harrison‟s (2009) experiment were used to verify the results from the FDS simulation. A good match was obtained between experimental results and FDS simulation results. The 1/10th-scale model was extended to full-scale using the scaling laws. Then, the model was used to perform a series of unchannelled balcony spill plume simulations with variables of balcony breadth, compartment opening, fire size and height of rise of the spill plume. Mass flow rate readings from simulations were used to improve the effective width correlations developed by Harrison and an improved effective width correlation was developed. Unchannelled balcony spill plume mass flow rate prediction with the revised effective width correlation was compared with mass flow rate predictions using the effective width correlation from Law (1995) and Harrison (2009).

This study focuses on work related factors which have an effect on the balance between peoples work and private/social life. Commonly discussed in the daily debate is the so called “livspusslet”, the time puzzle. The question is: How do you balance the demands from work, family and society? A lot of peoples health and family relations suffers from a stressful situation at work.

It’s not hard to figure out that the possible factors which could have an effect on the balance between peoples work and private/social life are many. So, therefore we have limited the research to a number of variables of interest. These variables are then summed up to three key areas for the survey the focus on. These key areas are chosen out of, and based on our previous knowledge and the literature we recently have read about this phenomenon. The key areas are : terms of employment, working environment and flexibility & independence at work.

We have also created an index, a sum of a number of balance measuring variables, which made it easier for us to see the effects from the key areas on peoples balance between work and private/social life. The literature we have read also tells us about differences between gender, class and career focus. We found that interesting and wanted to find some answers.

The result of this study and our conclusions are that a stressful work, a physically tough work, the relationship with your work colleges and if you are scared of losing your job, have most effect on the balance between peoples work and private/social life. The study found differences between gender, class and interest in making a career.

Denna undersökning fokuserar på de arbetsrelaterade faktorer som påverkar balansen mellan arbetsliv och privatliv. Det råder idag en omfattande samhällelig och medial debatt om det så kallade livspusslet. Hur ska individen hinna med alla krav som ställs av arbete, familj och samhälle? En allt för kravfylld livssituation kan leda till ohälsa och försämrade familjeförhållanden.

Undersökningens syfte är att ta reda på vilka arbetsrelaterade variabler som orsakar obalans mellan arbetsliv och privatliv. Ett index som mäter något som vi kallar livsbalans, konstruerades för att få ett mått på förhållandet mellan arbetsliv och privatliv. De arbetsrelaterade variablerna delades in i tre områden med varsin tillhörande frågeställning. Områdena är: anställningstrygghet, arbetsmiljö och flexibilitet & självständighet.

Studien reder också ut skillnader i livsbalans mellan män och kvinnor, personer med olika klasstillhörighet, eller personer med eller utan fokus på att göra karriär.

Det som påverkar människors livsbalans mest är om de har ett stressigt arbete, om de är oroliga för att förlora arbetet, om de har ett fysiskt ansträngande arbete eller vilken typ av relation de har med sina arbetskamrater. Självständigt arbete har likaså en effekt på balansindex även om denna effekt är tudelad enligt undersökningens analys. Vi har även funnit skillnader i kategorierna kön, klass och inställning till karriär. Medan mäns livsbalans endast påverkas av stressigt arbete och oro att förlora arbetet påverkas även kvinnors livsbalans av arbetstid, relationer med arbetskamrater samt graden av självständighet i arbetet.

Abstract:

Jag upplever det som att dagens samhälle är i ett konstant läge av förändring, vilket borde medföra att de företag som finns ute i samhälle måste befinna sig i ett konstant läge av anpassning. Utifrån det undrar jag hur företagen kan klara av att hantera de mänskliga resurserna samtidigt som de måste klara av den föränderliga omgivningen. Jag har därför valt att undersöka personalhanteringen på tre företag inom samma bransch för att fastställa ifall personalhanteringen utvecklas åt liknande håll. Eller om företagen utvecklas åt helt olika håll utan några likheter. De företag som jag undersöker lyckas uppenbarligen med konststycket att anpassa sig samtidigt som de hanterar sin personal och det jag är intresserad av är hur lyckas de med en sådan balansering.Mitt syfte är således inte att hitta ett gyllene snitt för personalhantering utan om möjligt finna liknelser mellan hur de företag jag kommer i kontakt med hanterar personal. Den struktur som används i uppsatsen är Hernadi’s hermeneutiska triad då den har möjligheten att hantera både delen och helheten i en sann abduktiv anda.För att ha möjligheten att undersöka utvecklingen utgår jag från dels bakgrunden till personalhanteringskonceptet och dels en teoretisk redogörelse för hur personalhantering kan se ut och vad det kan leda till. Uppsatsen utgår från de intervjuer som jag hållt med personalcheferna från de tre företagen och jag använder sedan ett antal teorier för att sätta den informationen i kontext. Jag noterar att företagen drar sig mot en mer formaliserad struktur och jag tolkar det som en reaktion för att hantera den psykiska press som drabbar de anställda utifrån de tekniska förändring som branschen medför samt den tillväxt som finns hos företagen. Formaliseringen fungerar i sin tur som en motpol till frihet, då en högre nivå av formalisering lämnar mindre spelområde för de anställda. Vilket i sin tur leder till minskad kreativitet. Det som är viktigt är för företagen att lyckas balansera mellan de olika ytterligheterna för att få alla delar att fungera.

Abstract:

Previous to the now acting construction regulations EKS and Eurocode, the fire resistance of the load-bearing structures of mono glazed balconies were designed with a fire test called the SP fire 105. In 2011, when EKS replaced the previous construction regulations called Boverkets konstruktionsregler, BKR, the SP fire 105 was no longer the requirement for mono glazed balconies. Instead, EKS prescribed that the load-bearing structures of mono glazed balconies should be determined by the use of nominal fire exposure or a natural fire model. EKS and Eurocode have previously prescribed that the standard temperature-time curve (ISO 834) was to be used when determining the fire resistance of structural elements according to nominal temperature-time curves. But an agreement made between Balkongföreningen and Boverket in 2011, established that the external temperature-time curve could be used for determination of the fire resistance of the structural elements of mono glazed balconies. The external temperature-time curve means a design temperature of the structural members of approximately 680 °C for a fire-resistance class R30, instead of a temperature of 842 °C for the standard temperature-time curve. In 2019, EKS 11 was introduced with a slight change in the regulation. The new regulation specifically implies that building parts placed within glazed balconies should not be considered as external. Due to the formulation in EKS 11, it is no longer possible to use the external temperature-time curve for verification of the fire resistance of structural elements of mono glazed balconies. The formulation says that building parts placed within glazed balconies should not be considered as external, which means that the standard temperature-time curve must be applied. The present research tries to clarify the more reasonable temperature-time curve of the standard fire curve and the external fire curve, or if neither of the curves is realistic. 16 scenarios were analysed in this study. Using CFD simulations in FDS, the adiabatic surface temperature of the structural parts could be established. The adiabatic surface temperatures were then used as input in the FEM calculation program TASEF to calculate the temperatures of structural elements of a mono glazed balcony during a fire. The results imply that the max temperatures of the steel members of the mono glazed balcony analysed are generally lower than the temperatures of the external temperature-time curve. In a worst-case scenario where the structural member is located just adjacent to the fire source, the max temperature can be higher than the temperature of the standard temperature-time curve. The balcony slab reaches max temperatures between the external temperature-time curve and the standard temperature-time curve. The temperature within the slab is below 500 °C at a depth of 15 mm and according to the 500 °C isotherm method presented in SS-EN 1992-1-2, concrete that has a temperature lower than 500 °C has not been damaged by the fire. Further studies are needed to establish whether the external temperature-time curve or the standard temperature-time curve is to be used when designing the fire resistance of the load-bearing structure of mono glazed balconies. A suggestion for further studies is to conduct fire tests of a fire within a mono glazed balcony. Such results could then be compared to the results of this study and hopefully, lead to conclusions that are needed for a complete establishment of which temperature-time curve that should be used.
Under det tidigare gällande regelverket boverkets konstruktionsregler, BKR, dimensionerades brandmotståndet för den bärande konstruktionen av enkelinglasade balkonger med testmetoden SP fire 105. När BKR ersattes av boverkets föreskrifter och allmänna råd om tillämpning av europeiska konstruktionsstandarder, EKS, tillsammans med Eurokoderna, slutade man att använda SP fire 105 och började istället använda nominella temperatur-/tidförlopp. I tidigare versioner av EKS föreskrevs det att dimensionering enligt klassificering ska utföras med en brandexponering enligt standardtemperatur/-tidkurvan (ISO 834). Men i och med upphörandet av BKR år 2011, genomfördes en överenskommelse mellan Balkongförening och Boverket där man bestämde att den bärande konstruktionen för enkelinglasade balkonger och öppna balkonger skulle få dimensioneras med exponeringskurvan för utvändig brand istället för standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan. Dimensionering enligt exponeringskurvan för utvändig brand resulterar i en dimensionerande temperatur på 680 °C för brandteknisk klass R30, istället för en temperatur på 842 °C vid dimensionering med standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan. Vid införandet av EKS 11 år 2019 skedde en förändring i föreskrifterna gällande branddimensionering av bärande konstruktioner. I EKS 11 framgår det explicit att byggnadsdelar vilka är placerade inom inglasade balkonger inte bör betraktas som utvändiga byggnadsdelar. Detta medför att den bärande konstruktionen för enkelinglasade balkonger inte längre kan dimensioneras enligt exponeringskurvan för utvändig brand, utan måste dimensioneras enligt standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan. Denna studie syftar till att klargöra vilken temperatur som är rimlig att använda vid dimensionering av den bärande konstruktionen för enkelinglasade balkonger. Är den tidigare exponeringskurvan för utvändig brand mer rimlig, eller är föreskriften om att använda standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan motiverad? I studien har 16 scenarion analyserats med hjälp av CFD beräkningar i simuleringsprogrammet FDS, och med hjälp av FEM beräkningar i simuleringsprogrammet TASEF. Med FDS beräknades den adiabatiska yttemperaturen för den bärande konstruktionen, vilken sedan användes som indata i TASEF för att beräkna temperaturen i den bärande konstruktionen. Maxtemperaturen på konstruktionselementen som utgörs av stål uppnår generellt temperaturer som understiger temperaturen för exponeringskurvan vid utvändig brand. I ett ”worst-case” scenario där brandkällan står i direkt anslutning till en stålkonstruktion, kan temperaturer uppnås vilka överstiger temperaturen i standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan. Maxtemperaturen på balkongplattan är högre än temperaturen i exponeringskurvan vid utvändig brand, men lägre än temperaturen i standardtemperatur-/tidkurvan. 15 mm in i balkongplattan understiger temperaturen på betongen 500 °C. Enligt 500 °C isotermmetoden som är publicerad i SS-EN 1992-1-2 innebär detta förenklat att all betong på ett djup överstigande 15 mm har kvar sin fulla bärförmåga. En slutsats är att det krävs vidare studier för att kunna fastställa vilket nominellt temperatur-/tidförlopp som borde användas vid dimensionering av den bärande konstruktionen för enkelinglasade balkonger. Ett förslag på vidare studier är att utföra brandtester på en enkelinglasad balkong, varav resultaten sedan kan jämföras med resultaten i denna studie. Sådana resultat skulle förhoppningsvis möjliggöra ett fastställande av vilket nominellt temperatur-/tidförlopp som bör användas vid dimensionering av den bärande konstruktionen för enkelinglasade balkonger.

Abstract:

För ett företag som arbetar med fast-fashion, är en snabb produktutvecklingsprocess ett måste. Dessa företag anlitar ofta leverantörer till att sköta mönsterkonstruktionen i samband med tillverkningen av plaggen och den stora utmaningen som detta samarbete möter, är tidspressen. Mönsterkonstruktionen och passformen blir ofta lidande vilket leder till att framtagningen av nya produkter blir ineffektiv och en mer kostsam process än nödvändigt, både för företaget och leverantörerna, men också för miljön. En specifik modell som för företaget haft återkommande passformsproblem, är ett överdelsplagg för dam med en djupt v-formad halsringning fram respektive bak. Passformsproblemen har visat sig främst kring ärmhålet och ärmen, men också över plaggets balans generellt. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad som händer med ett överdelsplaggs balans vid konstruktion av just en v-formad halsringning. Information om passformsproblem och balans av ärmhål och halsringningar saknas inom litteratur och forskning, vilket tyder på ett behov som sträcker sig utöver företagets. Metoden som använts i studien är experimentell och består av digital mönsterkonstruktion, sömnad av prototyper och avprovning på verkliga provpersoner. Resultatet pekar på behovet av att använda sig av noggrant framtagna grundmönster och studiens slutsats visar hur de viktigaste parametrarna för denna specifika modell bör vara konstruerade
For a fast-fashion clothing company, a fast product development process is essential. These companies often hire suppliers to handle the patternmaking in combination with the production of the merchandise and the main challenge that these type of collaborations faces is the time-sensitivity. The patternmaking and the fit of the garments are often the ones to suffer, which in turn makes the development process of new products inefficient and a more costly process than necessary, both for the clothing company and the supplier but also for the environment. A specific model that has recurring problems with fit is a ladies top with a deep v-shaped neckline in front or in back of the garment. The fit problems are mainly located around the armhole and the sleeve, but it is also shown on the overall balance of the garment. The purpose of this study is to investigate what happens with the balance of the garment when constructing a deep v-shaped neckline. Information about fit problems and balance of the arm and armhole in combination with necklines is lacking in literature and research, which indicates a need that extends beyond the company’s need. The method used in the study is experimental and consists of digital patternmaking, sewing of prototypes and fitting-sessions on real people. The result points to the need to use carefully developed block patterns and the conclusions states how the most important parameters for this specific model should be constructed.

Full text

Abstract:

Dans le contexte actuel des conceptions et réalisations architecturales, la façade s’est éloignée de sa traditionnelle fonction de mur séparateur filtrant la lumière, pour se diversifier en une variété d’espaces de plus en plus complexes, gagnant de ce fait même une épaisseur modulable. Les balcons, loggias, terrasses, coursives, issues de différentes cultures, déclinent aujourd’hui de nouvelles propositions spatiales, ambiantales et comportementales. L’hypothèse générale de cette thèse est que l’ensemble de ces espaces intermédiaires regroupés sous l’intitulé de dispositifs de façade épaisse (DFE) participe pleinement à la conception et au vécu du logement contemporain. Les DFE appartiennent à la famille des « espaces intermédiaires », c’est à dire des lieux caractérisant la zone transitionnelle séparant deux espaces aux degrés d’intimité différents, aménageant les liens intérieur/extérieur, permettant des porosités avec les éléments naturels, le voisinage, le contexte urbain ou le grand territoire. Par définition, les DFE agissent comme interfaces génératrices d’expériences sensorielles et sensibles. L’analyse de trois écoquartiers (à Grenoble et à Paris) permet d’explorer la variété typologique des bâtis ; la diversité des rôles attribués par les résidents aux DFE témoigne : surface supplémentaire à celle du logement, sas d’entrée dans l’espace privé, espace représentatif pour le bâti, filtre régulateur des facteurs ambiantaux, modularité de l’intimité et augmentation de la qualité de vie du logement… En conclusion, la thèse montre comment l’étude des ambiances des DFE permet de mettre à jour les enjeux transversaux et contemporains de la conception de ce type d’espaces intermédiaires, en proposant plusieurs champs d’interrogation aux concepteurs : un DFE dans son contexte, un espace à forte appropriation modulable, un accès à la nature, un espace de jeu pour les cinq sens, un lieu intime et un lieu convivial. Concevoir le logement et penser les ambiances des DFE à travers cette grille devient alors pour le concepteur une démarche d’élargissement et d’enrichissement de son projet d’habitation.Mots-clés : Interface épaisse, Balcon, Loggia, Terrasse, Coursive, Ambiances, Appropriation, Habiter, Modularité, Ecoquartier, Techno-sensible
In the current context of architectural design and developments, the facade shifted away from its traditional function of dividing, light-filtering wall. It is now diversified in an array of increasingly complex spaces, thus growing in adjustable thickness. Balconies, loggias, terraces, corridors, all stemming from different cultures, developed nowadays new spatial, environmental and behavioural propositions. The general hypothesis of this thesis is that the ensemble of intermediary spaces (balconies, loggias, terraces, corridors), brought together under the name “Thick facade devices” (TFD), fully takes part in the design and the experience of contemporary housing. TFDs belong to the “intermediary spaces” family, i.e. places characterising a transition area that separates two spaces with two different degrees of intimacy, establishing connections between the inside and the outside, enabling permeability with natural elements, neighbours, the urban context or the bigger territory. By definition, TFDs work as interfaces that generate sensory and perceptible experience. The analysis of three eco-districts (in Grenoble and Paris) allows to explore the typological variety of the built environment ; the diversity in the roles given to the TFDs by the residents is telling: additional surface to the housing, entrance hall into the house, representative space for the building, regulating filter of the ambiance factors, modularity of intimacy and increase of the place’s quality of life. In conclusion, the thesis shows how the study of TFD ambiances can highlight cross-cutting and contemporary challenges regarding the design of intermediary spaces. Several questions are proposed to designers : TFDs in his context, a space with strong adjustable appropriation, an access to nature, an area to play with the five senses, an intimate and convivial place. For the architect, designing housing and considering the TFDs’ ambiances through this grid thus becomes a strategy to expand and enhance his housing project.Keyword: thick interface, balcony, loggia, terrace, corridor, ambiances, appropriation, inhabiting, modularity, ecodistrict, techno-sensitive

Abstract:

During spring 2012, six students at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm carried out a group project in the field of mechatronics as part of the thesis for the bachelor degree. The result was a robot with active balancing and the purpose of this report is to describe the development, manufacturing and problems that arose during the project. The finished robot has two wheels mounted in line with each other, like a bicycle. Measurement data from an accelerometer and a gyroscope are used together in a complementary filter for determining the angle from the vertical plane. For balancing, a PID controller was used to control the rotation of a reaction wheel, when accelerating causes a straightening torque. The operator controls the robot by selecting commands on a touchscreen which is mounted on a remote that sends them wireless with Bluetooth-communication. The robot reached the desired balancing capabilities and shows good stability during operation.
Under vårterminen 2012 har sex studenter på Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan i Stockholm bedrivit ett grupprojekt inom området mekatronik som en del av examensarbetet för kandidatexamen. Resultatet blev en robot med aktiv balansering och syftet med denna rapport är att beskriva utveckling, tillverkning och problem som uppstod under projektets gång. Den färdiga roboten har två hjul som är monterade i linje med varandra, likt en cykel. Mätdata från en accelerometer och ett gyro används tillsammans i ett komplementärfilter för att bestämma vinkeln från robotens jämviktsläge. För att balansera användes en PID-regulator som styr rotationen av ett svänghjul som vid acceleration ger upphov till ett upprätande moment. Operatören styr roboten genom att välja olika kommandon via en pekskärm på en fjärrkontroll som skickar kommandon trådlöst via Bluetooth. Roboten uppnådde önskad balansering och påvisar god stabilitet vid drift.

Abstract:

Les rayons cosmiques ont été découverts il y a un siècle par Victor Hess à bord d'un vol scientifique en ballon. La physique des rayons cosmiques et les ballons stratosphériques ont partagé depuis lors une histoire commune, que ce soit pour d'authentiques découvertes ou en utilisant les ballons comme plateformes de test technologique pour de nouvelles missions satellites. Cette thèse, développée au sein de la collaboration JEM-EUSO, traite d'un démonstrateur en ballon stratosphérique. Notre but scientifique final est l'étude des Rayons Cosmiques de Ultra-Haute Energie (RCUHE), les particules les plus énergétiques connues dans l'Univers. Les RCUHES ont des énergies macroscopiques de plus de 10^20eV mais étant extrêmement rares, leurs origines sont encore inconnues. Ces derniers pénètrent notre atmosphère à une fréquence de un par km2 par siècle, produisant une gerbe atmosphérique géante, détectable notamment par la lumière de fluorescence ultraviolette qu'elle émet. Le principe de détection proposé par notre collaboration consiste dans l'utilisation d'un observatoire spatial, JEM-EUSO. Son objectif est d'observer un très grand volume d'atmosphère afin d'enregistrer un nombre significatif des événements ultra-violet de fluorescence initiés par les RCUHEs. Le démonstrateur EUSO-Ballon a été développé par la collaboration JEM-EUSO dans le but de démontrer les technologies et méthodes utilisées par le futur instrument spatial. Le 25 août 2014, EUSO-Ballon a été lâché depuis la base de ballons stratosphériques de Timmins (Ontario, Canada) par la division ballon du CNES. L'instrument a fonctionné pendant toute une nuit astronomique, observant depuis 38km d'altitude la lumière UV provenant de divers types de sols et de centaines de gerbes atmosphériques simulées. Ces dernières ont été produites par des flashers et un laser embarqués dans un hélicoptère volant sous EUSO-Ballon pendant deux heures. Ces résultats ont été rendus possibles par la restitution de l'attitude de l'instrument effectuée à l'IRAP, c'est-à-dire une analyse exhaustive des données du vol des différents appareils de mesure d'attitude de la nacelle du ballon. Une caractérisation précise de chaque sous-système était aussi indispensable à l'exploitation des données du vol. Le système optique innovant, composé de deux grandes lentilles de Fresnel, a été intégré et entièrement testé à l'IRAP. Face au large système réfractif de l'instrument, une nouvelle méthodologie de test a été développée. Les performances de l'optique, efficacité et spot focal, ont ainsi été mesurées et se sont révélées étonnamment différentes des prédictions des modèles numériques. Ces mesures sont utilisées pour l'analyse des données du premier vol et pour mieux comprendre le comportement de ces toutes nouvelles optiques, éléments clés dans la conception de l'instrument JEM-EUSO
A century ago Cosmic Rays were discovered by Victor Hess during one of the very first scientific balloon flights. Ever since, Cosmic Ray physics and stratospheric balloons have shared a common history - either through genuine discoveries or by using balloon platforms as technology test beds for new satellite missions. This thesis, carried out within the JEM-EUSO collaboration, is about such a pathfinder balloon mission. Our ultimate science goal is the study of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR), the most energetic particles known in the Universe. Having macroscopic energies of over 10^20 eV, UHECRs are of yet unknown cosmic origin and are extremely rare. They penetrate our atmosphere at a rate of about one event per km2 and century, producing energetic atmospheric air showers, detectable through the ultraviolet fluorescence light they emit. The technique that our collaboration proposes for their detection consists of a spaceborne observatory, JEM-EUSO. Its objective is to monitor a very large volume of the Earth's nighttime atmosphere from above, recording a significant sample of ultraviolet light tracks initiated by UHECRs. In order to demonstrate the technologies and methods featured in the future space instrument, the EUSO-Balloon pathfinder has been developed by the JEM-EUSO collaboration. On August 25, 2014, EUSO-Balloon was launched from Timmins Stratospheric Balloon Base (Ontario, Canada) by the balloon division of the French Space Agency CNES. From a float altitude of 38 km, the instrument operated during the entire astronomical night, observing UV-light from a variety of groundcovers and from hundreds of simulated air showers, produced by flashers and a laser during a two-hour helicopter under-flight. These results have been made possible by the restitution of the instruments attitude carried out at IRAP, i.e. an exhaustive analysis of the flight data from various attitude sensors on board of the balloon gondola. Also, a precise understanding of the Fresnel optics was required to analyze the data of the first EUSO-balloon flight. The all new optical system, integrated and tested at IRAP, has been characterized during two measurement campaigns. To test this large refractive system, a new test method has been developed. The optics performance, i.e. the efficiency and point spread function, came as something of a surprise, since none of the numerical models had predicted the observed behavior. These measurements are used in the analysis of the flight data and for the deep understanding of these brand-new Fresnel optics, key element in the design of the JEM-EUSO instrument

Abstract:

Les « murs végétalisés » permettent, avec une très faible emprise au sol, de renforcer la végétalisation des milieux urbains. Ils contribuent, au même titre que les toitures végétalisées, à l’adaptation des villes au changement climatique, à la résorption des îlots de chaleur, à la lutte contre l’effondrement de la biodiversité. Il existe de nombreux types de murs végétalisés, des plus artificiels et des plus onéreux sur lesquels les végétaux poussent en hydroponie, quasiment sans substrat, aux plus spontanés qui se développent naturellement en dehors de toute intervention humaine, dans les joints des matériaux de construction. Cette thèse traite à la fois d’architecture et d’écologie dans la perspective d’une cohabitation avec la végétation sur les parties verticales des bâtiments. Alors que les pensées contemporaines de la nature renouvellent les rapports d’appartenance entre l’homme et son environnement, l’architecture tarde encore à s’engager dans cette voie. L’enjeu est d’étudier la capacité du bâti à accueillir sur ses surfaces extérieures une nature aussi autonome que possible, qui ne coûte rien ou peu et apporte à la ville de multiples services écologiques. La première partie dresse un état de l’art, un inventaire des moyens et techniques et une classification des figures architecturales des modalités de végétalisation verticale des bâtiments. La deuxième partie de la thèse est consacrée à trois études de terrain concernant les plantes rudérales, les balcons végétalisés, les murs végétalisés, ainsi qu’à la discussion des résultats. L’aboutissement ouvre l’hypothèse qu’humains et non-humains partagent une « écoesthétique du vivant » qui les relie dans un environnement commun et qui constitue une nouvelle perspective pour l’écologie architecturale
With a very small footprint, “green walls” allow to reinforce the greening of urban areas. They contribute, in the same way as vegetated roofs, to the adaptation of cities to climate change, to the resorption of heat islands, to the fight against the collapse of biodiversity. There are many types of green walls, from the most artificial and the most expensive on which plants grow in hydroponics, almost without substrate, to the most spontaneous which develop naturally without any human intervention, in the joints of building materials. This thesis deals with both architecture and ecology in the perspective of cohabitation with vegetation on the vertical parts of buildings. While contemporary thoughts of nature renew the relationships of belonging between man and his environment, architecture is still slow to embark on this path. The aim is to study the capacity of the building to accommodate on its exterior surfaces a nature as autonomous as possible, which costs nothing or little, and provides the city with multiple ecological services. The first part presents a state of the art, an inventory of the means and techniques and a classification of the architectural figures of the methods of vertical vegetation of the buildings. The second part of the thesis is devoted to three field studies on ruderal plants, vegetated balconies, green walls, as well as to the discussion of the results. The outcome leads to the hypothesis that humans and non-humans share a «eco-aesthetics of the living» that connects them in a common environment and that constitutes a new perspective for architectural ecology

Abstract:

Syfte

Tidigare forskning har visat att Tai Chi träning förbättrar balansen hos äldre. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om barns balans påverkades av träning som utfördes i ett långsamt tempo liknande Tai Chi träning.

Studien syftade också till att utreda om det förelåg någon skillnad i balans mellan pojkar och flickor och om något av könen tog till sig träningen bättre. Studien syftade även till att undersöka hur balansen påverkades då barnen utförde olika kognitiva uppgifter.

Metod

Studien fullföljdes av 41 barn i åldern 9-10 år. En interventionsgrupp, 19 barn tränade Tai Chi liknande rörelser dagligen under åtta veckor och denna jämfördes med en kontrollgrupp, 22 barn som inte fick denna träning.

Balansövningar utfördes på en kraftplatta samt på en metallprofil. Från övningarna på kraftplattan mättes standardavvikelse och amplitud av tryckcentrums mediolaterala och anterioposteriora förflyttning. Från övningarna på metallprofilen mättes antalet nedtramp.

Resultat

Många parametrar mättes men endast en uppvisade en signifikant träningseffekt. Pojkarna minskade standardavvikelsen på tryckcentrums mediolaterala förflyttning vid stående med öppna ögon.

Studien uppmätte vissa skillnader i balans mellan pojkar och flickor.

Mätningar av tryckcentrums förflyttning då barnen utförde olika uppgifter uppmätte en signifikant skillnad vid stående med öppna ögon jämfört med stående då ögonen var stängda (med eller utan utförande av en samtida kognitiv uppgift).

Övningarna på metallskenan förbättrades lika mycket i tränings- som kontrollgrupp.

Slutsats

Studien ger indikationer att träningsformen i viss utsträckning var effektiv då daglig träning under åtta veckor gav signifikant förbättring i en av de testade parametrarna.

Dessa fynd är i linje med de fåtal studier som finns på träning av balans hos barn.

Aim.

Previous studies have shown that Tai Chi exercises improve postural control in elderly people. The primary aim of this study was to investigate if similar Thai Chi like training affects postural control in children. Secondary aims of the study was 1) to investigate if any such effects from training differs between boys and girls and 2) to investigate whether performing a cognitive task during balance testing had any effect on postural control in these children.

Method.

In the balance tests, different tasks were performed on a force plate and on a metal profile. From the tasks performed on the force plate, the standard deviations and amplitudes of the mediolateral and anterioposterior displacements of center of pressure were measured. From the tasks performed on the metal profile, the number of clampdowns were counted.

The study was conducted over an eight week period with 41 children in the ages 9-10 years old. The children were divided into two groups; children in the training group (n=19) who participated in Tai Chi like training every day, and children in the control group (n=22) who did not participate in this training.

Results.

The study also showed some differences in postural control between boys and girls.

When comparing the displacement in center of pressure between different two-legged tasks performed on the force plate, significantly less displacement was found in the task involving standing with open eyes compared to all tasks involving standing with closed eyes (with or without a concurrent cognitive task).

The number of clampdowns from the metal profile were reduced after the training period, to a similar extent in the control and the training groups.

Several different aspects of the postural control were measured in the study. Only one of these improved significantly with training. Boys in the intervention group showed a decrease in the standard deviation of the mediolateral displacement of the center of pressure when standing with open eyes.

Conclusion.

These results are also consistent with similar studies on postural control among children.

This study indicates that slow motion training, similar to Tai Chi, has a small but positive effect on postural control, for boys 9-10 year old, when conducted every day over an eight week period, as one of the tested parameters shows an improvement.

Abstract:

This report investigates the potential of applying salt water modelling using the Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) flow visualisation technique to study balcony spill plume phenomena. A 1/20 scale perspex model was used to conduct a series of salt water experiments. The testing parameters include two balcony settings (125mm and 250mm in model scale) and two spilling densities (0.5% and 1.0% of salt by weight). Through the study, results showed that good flow visualisation could be achieved using the LIF technique. The main advantage of using the salt water modelling technique was the ease in modifying the model's geometry or testing conditions. These modifications would not result in huge changes in the data acquisition systems as in either the full or small scale fire tests. The smoke layer within the compartment was simulated by the injection of a saline layer. By doing this, a quantitatively correct counter flow at the doorway was achieved, as in the real fire situation. This method also provided greater control over the injected flow and the flow was found to be repeatable. From the results obtained, it was found that there was a small degree of entrainment at the rotational region of the balcony spill plume. It was also observed that the presence of the soffit at the opening would result in significant entrainment into the under-balcony flow layer. Smoke logging on the upper balcony was found to be more severe with a shorter balcony than a longer balcony; this was due to the local deepening effect. The salt water results collected in this study could not be converted into the equivalent fire results at this stage. There are still many questions regarding the issue of scaling salt water results to full scale fire cases. Future research on the scaling laws needs to be done before the full potential of the salt water modelling technique could be utilised.

Abstract:

Background: Power by force and threats used to be the common way to collect taxes, but this procedure is today completely different. It’s now more about building a mutual relationship and with help of laws and controls steer citizens and companies to pay the tax they owe. Thus the way to collect taxes have changed over the years, the collecting of taxes aren’t a popular task to do. But despite that, the Swedish IRS has been nominated as one of the most popular authorities with the highest trust according to the Swedish people (TNS SIFO, 2011). This background leads us to the examination papers problem: How does an internal revenue service balance exercise power and relationship building?Purpose: The purpose with this examination paper is through a fall study investigate how the Swedish IRS balance exercises power and relationship building towards barbers and restaurants. The examination papers purpose is also to investigate how the restaurants as well as barbers look upon the Swedish IRS. This investigations purpose is to examine relevant reasons that tributes to the good relationship between companies and the Swedish IRS.Method: By collecting information from the interview subjects, Swedish IRS, restaurants and barbers, we want to give the examination paper through thoughts and reflections an insight in how companies sees the Swedish IRS. We also want to get an insight in how the Swedish IRS discusses their methods and how they work to achieve the popularity they hold today.Conclusion: Companies that haven’t experienced complications from the Swedish IRS tend to have a bigger trust in the IRS (Meyerson et al, 1990). This was proven right from one of the examination papers cases, where one of the interviewed restaurant companies had to experience a revision and because of this procedure lost their trust towards the Swedish IRS compared to what they had before the procedure. Several of the examination papers cases shows that when the Swedish IRS control unit proceed supervisions towards the companies, they show an understanding against the companies, which leads to a bigger earning of trust from the companies. Egidius (2000) suggests that if one shows understanding, this may lead to satisfied companies and a better relationship.
Bakgrund och problem: Förr var Tvångsmakt och hot en vanlig metod att driva in skatt, idag är detta tillvägagångssätt helt förändrat. Det handlar numera om att bygga upp en ömsesidig relation och att med hjälp av lagar och kontroller styra medborgare och företagare till att betala den skatt de är skyldiga till. Trots att sättet att driva in skatt har förändrats genom tiden så är det fortfarande ingen populär uppgift att ta på sig. Men trots det så har Skatteverket utsetts till en av de myndigheterna med det allra största förtroendet enligt svenska folket (TNS SIFO, 2011). Med dessa bakgrundsfaktorer leder det oss fram till uppsatsens problemformulering: Hur balanserar en skattemyndighet maktutövning och relationsbyggande?Syfte: Syftet med denna undersökning är att genom en fallstudie undersöka hur Skatteverket balanserar maktutövande och relationsbyggande gentemot frisörer och restauranger. Undersökningen syftar även på att undersöka hur restaurang- och frisörföretag ser på Skatteverket. Det som uppsatsen syftar till är då att undersöka vilka faktorer som bidrar till Skatteverkets förtroende?Metod: Genom att ha samlat in data från intervjusubjekten Skatteverket samt restaurang- och frisörföretag så gav detta uppsatsen tankar och reflektioner kring hur företagare ser på Skatteverket samt en inblick i hur Skatteverket själva diskuterar kring sina metoder för att erhålla sin popularitet.Slutsats: Företag som inte har genomgått åtgärder från en skattemyndighets sida visar på ett större förtroende (Meyerson m.fl., 1996). Detta visade sig utifrån ett fall ur uppsatsens empiri, där en utav de intervjuade restaurangföretagen hade fått genomgå en revision och hade på grund av detta en betydligt mycket negativare syn på Skatteverket och ett minskat förtroende jämfört med sin tidigare syn. Utifrån flera utav uppsatsens empiriska fall så framgick det att Skatteverkets kontrollanter vid kontrollbesök visade på förståelse vilket ledde till att de kunde känna ett större förtroende för Skatteverket. Det är då som Egidius (2000) menar på att om man visar förståelse leder till att de kontrollerade företagen känner sig bättre bemötta och får då ett större förtroende. De största bidragande faktorerna till att Skatteverket lyckats bygga upp detta stora förtroende enligt intervjuade från vår empiri är att de flesta känner att Skatteverket finns där för att hjälpa dem, de hjälper till att motverka den osunda konkurrensen.

Abstract:

The design, simulation, and measurement of two bulk-driven down-conversion mixers with on-chip transformer baluns in 0.18 μm CMOS is presented. Applying either the RF signal or the local oscillator (LO) signal to the bulk connection of the transistors allows the amplification and switching stages of a conventional mixer to be combined into a single stage, thus improving the voltage headroom of the mixer. The addition of a transformer balun to the mixers improves the input impedance match, provides passive voltage gain, and performs single-ended to balanced conversion. A semi-analytical power-series analysis of the mixers is also presented. The mixer in which the RF signal is applied to the gates of the mixing transistors achieves a measured input-referred 1-dB compression point (P1dB) of −14 dBm, an input-referred third-order intercept point (IIP3) of −5.2 dBm, a gain of 13.6 dB, a noise figure (NF) of 26 dB, and an LO-to-RF isolation of 50 dB. The overall performance of both mixers is found to be comparable with other CMOS mixers, but with a higher noise figure (which can be mitigated with a high gain low-noise amplifier (LNA)).

Resumo: Verifica-se, em observações clínicas e também em literaturas científicas, um crescente sentimento de vazio nas pessoas nos tempos atuais. Assim, este trabalho busca compreender tal sentimento - o de vazio - e a sua relação com a subjetividade na atualidade, considerando o referencial psicanalítico. A pesquisa apresenta um entendimento da atualidade na ótica da Sociologia e, também, as possíveis relações entre a psicanálise de Freud e Balint para compreender esse sentimento. É um estudo teórico-reflexivo que traz subsídios para discussão desse fenômeno clínico tão comum hoje. Diante disso, é necessário contextualizar a atualidade e apresentar alguns conceitos psicanalíticos como o narcisismo, a transitoriedade e o amor primário. Levando-se em consideração que a psicanálise se encontra atravessada em sua teoria pela cultura, considera-se possível compreender o vazio na atualidade, tal como sua relação com a subjetividade. Ao realizar esse estudo, é possível apresentar subsídios para compreender o sentimento do vazio como uma possibilidade, não patológica, mas de desenvolvimento
Abstract: Through clinical observations and in scientific literature, a growing feeling of emptiness in the current times has been noticed. On this purpose, this paper aims to understand this feeling - the vacuum - and its relation to the subjectivity on the current days, considering the psychoanalytic approach. The research presents a current understanding through the perspective of Sociology and also the possible relationship between psychoanalysis of Freud and Balint to understand this feeling. It is a theoretical-reflexive study that brings support for discussion of this common clinical phenomenon. Therefore, it is necessary to contextualize the present and reveal some psychoanalytic concepts such as narcissism, the transitory and primary love. Taking into consideration that psychoanalysis is traversed in this theory through culture, it is possible to understand the void on the present days, as well as its relation to subjectivity. Conducting this study, it is possible to provide subsidies to understand the feeling of emptiness as a possibility, not pathological, but as a development

Abstract:

O tema desta tese de doutorado contempla as relações que são estabelecidas no trabalho organizado entre os profissionais que devem liderar e os trabalhadores de suas equipes. O problema é caracterizado como a violência que pode estabelecer-se nas relações entre os líderes e os liderados ou de outro modo, a dificuldade dos líderes em administrar as suas relações com seus subordinados de modo a ocuparem um lugar de mediação entre as demandas organizacionais e as dos trabalhadores, sem recorrem à violência. O objetivo é estabelecer as bases de uma modalidade grupal que possa contribuir para reduzir a presença da violência nessas relações e estabelecer os princípios para relações humanas fundadas na ética humanista. A proposta volta-se, portanto, para contribuir na fundamentação das condições necessárias para uma clínica das relações humanas assimétricas que são típicas do trabalho em sistemas organizacionais. O interesse pelo tema vem em continuidade do debate que foi proposto anteriormente na nossa dissertação de mestrado, quando foram analisadas as dificuldades para conduzir processos grupais nos ambientes organizacionais, momento esse em que foram analisadas as resistências dos sistemas de poder nas organizações de trabalho envolvendo as autoridades que as comandam, na medida em que se sentem ameaçadas pelo movimento que contribui para a autonomia dos trabalhadores. A revisão de literatura envolve a discussão sobre as questões que envolvem a aplicação da psicologia e da psicanálise em sistemas organizacionais e a questão da violência psicológica no trabalho. O método envolve a pesquisa do campo teórico sobre processos grupais de fundamentação psicanalítica aplicáveis ao trabalho, para permitir a opção por uma modalidade grupal que permita aos profissionais a elaboração dos conteúdos relacionados com a ansiedade e a angústia vinculados à atividade de liderar; é feita a opção pela modalidade grupal Balint com a proposta de capacitar os líderes para estabelecerem junto a suas equipes um espaço de palavra, considerado fundamental para que os trabalhadores possam assumir o estatuto de 9 profissionais respeitados. Consequentemente, é pesquisado o campo teórico discutido por esse psicanalista, visando propiciar ao autor desta tese a habilitação necessária para estabelecer os fundamentos de uma modalidade grupal Balint aplicada aos líderes do trabalho organizado, implicando essa opção na necessidade de promover a discussão sobre as categorias de análise aplicáveis. Esse setting foi aplicado em diversos processos grupais com profissionais que lideram. Complementa-se o método buscando a validação da opção realizada. Nesse sentido, os conteúdos verificados nos grupos são analisados com base no campo teórico discutido, bem como nas categorias de análise. Conclui-se que a proposta se apresenta adequada, com potencial para contribuir em uma clínica das relações assimétricas do trabalho.
This Doctoral Thesis explores the relationships that are established in organized working spaces between professionals in charge of leading and the workers in their teams. The problem addressed here is the violence that may arise in the relationships between leaders and their led ones, or else, a discussion on how difficult it is for the leaders to manage relationships with their subordinates so as to serve as mediators between the organization\'s and the workers\' demands, without turning to violence. The objective is to establish the basis for a group model that will contribute to reduce the presence of violence in these relationships and to set up principles for human relations based on humanist ethics. The proposal therefore aims at contributing to the foundation of conditions necessary to the investigation and adjustment of the asymmetric human relations that are typical of labor in organizational spaces. This subject is of interest since the debate proposed previously in our Master\'s Dissertation, in which were investigated the difficulties in handling group processes within organizational scenarios. At the time were analyzed resistances occurring in power structures present in work organizations which involved their commanding authorities and which occurred while feeling threatened by the movement that encouraged the workers\' autonomy. Reviewing the literature available on the subject involves discussing issues that address the matter of applying psychology and psychoanalysis within organizational spaces and the issue of psychological violence at work. The method involves theoretical field research on group processes of psychoanalytical foundation applicable in labor relationship, in order to make available a group model option that could allow professionals to elaborate issues related to the anxiety and angst associated to act of leading. Thus we opted for the Balint group model, proposing to prepare leaders to establish a \"space of discussion\" within their teams. This communication channel would be an essential tool to allow the employees to take over their positions as respected professionals. Consequently were pursued the theoretical field research 11 proposed by this psychoanalyst with the intention of enabling the researcher to establish the foundations of a Balint group model to be applied to the team leaders. This choice implies the need to promote discussions about the analytical categories that should be applicable. This setting was applied in several group processes that included leading professionals. The method is complemented by expecting to validate the chosen option. In that sense, the issues verified in those groups are analyzed based on the discussed theoretical field, as well as on the analytical categories. The research\'s conclusion is that this proposal is adequate to reaching the objectives above mentioned and may potentially contribute to an investigation and adjustment of the asymmetric relations existing within organized working spaces.

Abstract:

Social media has grown to an integral part of our everyday lives and companies are focusing heavily on finding new, efficient ways to reach their target market. One strategy that has received much attention is influencer marketing – where focus has shifted from an entire audience of potential customers to influential people that have a strong impact on their followers. After reviewing previous research we identified a gap in consumers trust in influencer marketing from a corporate perspective. Our study aims to examine follower’s attitudes to influencer marketing and propose how companies can find a balance of trust and influence when working with social media marketing, while the attitude to influencer marketing is becoming increasingly sceptical. To get a wide and fair perspective, a triangular model has been used. In addition to secondary data from previous research, we have completed an online survey on consumer’s opinions and experiences with influencer marketing, two interviews with key people at Swedish fashion companies and one interview with a researcher on consumer reactions. The recurring term throughout the study is trust, proved to be crucial for consumer attitudes to influencer marketing. For companies not to risk the trust of their potential customers, the influencer’s following must match the audience the company wishes to reach, the brands must be compatible for the message to reach out and value-building relationships must be created.This thesis is written in Swedish.
Sociala medier har vuxit till en integrerad del av vår vardag och företag fokuserar hårt på att hitta nya, effektiva sätt att nå sina målmarknader. En strategi som har fått stor uppmärksamhet är influencer marketing - där fokus har skiftat från en hel publik av potentiella kunder till inflytelserika personer som har en stark inverkan på deras följare. Efter att ha granskat tidigare forskning identifierade vi ett gap i konsumentförtroende för influencer marketing ur ett företagsperspektiv. Vår studie syftar till att undersöka följares attityder till influencer marketing för att analysera hur företag kan hitta en balans mellan förtroende och inflytande när man arbetar med marknadsföring på sociala medier, samtidigt som inställningen till influencer marketing blir alltmer skeptisk. För att få ett brett och rättvist perspektiv har en triangulär forskningsmodell använts. Förutom sekundärdata från tidigare forskning har vi genomfört en enkätundersökning online om konsumentens åsikter och erfarenheter av influencer marketing, två intervjuer med nyckelpersoner på svenska modeföretag och en intervju med en forskare med fokus på konsumentreaktioner påmarknadsföring via sociala medier. Det återkommande begreppet under hela studien är förtroende, som visar sig vara avgörande för konsumenters attityder till influencer marketing. För företag ska undvika att riskera potentiella kunders förtroende, måste influencerns publik matcha företagets önskade målgrupp, varumärkena måste vara kompatibla för att meddelandet ska nå ut och slutligen måste värdeskapande relationeretableras mellan alla parter.

Abstract:

Nous avons développé un détecteur intégré à base d'une diode pour être embarqué dans un ballon stratosphérique afin de caractériser l'environnement radiatif atmosphérique. Le détecteur a été calibré avec une source Californium, et il a été pleinement caractérisé lors de tests sous faisceaux de neutrons qui produisent diverses particules ionisantes secondaires. Les sections efficaces différentielles de détection pour différentes énergies de faisceaux de neutrons sont avérées être en bon accord avec les simulations effectuées avec le code MC-Oracle. Nous avons effectué un certain nombre de vols en ballon stratosphériques (avec l'ESA et le CNES) et confirmé la corrélation entre le taux de comptage et de l'altitude. En outre, nous avons observé que l'environnement radiatif n'est pas isotrope et démontré le potentiel de notre outil pour étudier l'environnement radiatif atmosphérique. Ces résultats sont utiles pour estimer le flux de particules qui affecte appareils et systèmes électroniques à bord des appareils
We developed an integrated silicon detector to be embedded in a stratospheric balloon in order to investigate the radiative atmospheric environment. The detector was calibrated with a Californium source, and it was fully characterized under neutron beams which produced various secondary ionizing particles. Differential detection cross sections for different neutron beam energies were shown to be in good agreement with simulations performed with the MC-Oracle code. We performed four stratospheric balloon flights (with ESA and CNES) and confirmed the correlation between the count rate and the altitude. Moreover, we observed that the radiative environment is not isotropic and demonstrated the potential of our tool for investigating the radiative atmospheric environment. These results are useful for estimating the particle flux that affects electronic devices and onboard aircraft systems

Abstract:

This paper examines the various responses of progressive white southern clergy to school desegregation events in Arkansas. I investigate why no major white clerical movement emerged to support civil rights, arguing that internal and external factors limited their genuinely motivated witness. National and local clergy endorsed Brown for both religious and practical reasons, arguing that segregation was counter to Christian brotherhood and hurt worldwide evangelism. However, like William Chafe’s progressives in Greensboro, too many clergy worked for school desegregation but ignored African American voices, believing that their demands unnecessarily inflamed the local opposition and unfortunately urged patience and civility instead of justice. Furthermore, clerical intervention proved to be less effective than ministers expected. Sympathetic clergy experienced physical harassment and congregational opposition for speaking out, and local communities simply ignore their messages.

Abstract:

The work deals with the design and development of the design documentation of an apartment building situated in the cadastral area of the town of Boskovice. The documentation contains all the requirements according to the valid regulations. The designed four-floor apartment building is situated in gently sloping terrain. There are 13 flats in this apartment building. A balcony or a terrace belong to each of the flats. From the ground floor apartments there is an entrance to the garden. The flats are designed to meet the requirements of the present day. There is a car park in front of the buiding. The vertical loadbearing structures are lined with clay blocks. The building is covered with a one-layer coating flat roof with a load-bearing layer of monolithic reinforced concrete boards. The insulation of the building is provided by a contact thermal insulation system. Fire safety, energy saving and thermal protection is ensured.

Abstract:

Uppsatsen syftar till att förstå unga, arbetande akademikers reflektioner kring att uppnå balans mellan fritid och arbete. Genom kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer har vi undersökt och fått större inblick i problemområdet utifrån våra sex intervjupersoner upplevelser. Resultatet av vår undersökning visar att våra intervjupersoner upplever att de har balans. Balansen uppnår de genom en klar gränsdragning mellan arbete och fritid och att använda fritiden till rekreation, återhämtning och umgänge med familj och vänner. Då våra intervjupersoner är nya på arbetsmarknaden och har lagt mycket tid och pengar på utbildning, har de som mål att utvecklas inom sitt yrke. Intervjupersonerna anser sig ha mer tid till utveckling i dagsläget då de befinner sig i en livssituation där självförverkligande får stort utrymme i både arbetet och fritiden. Våra intervjupersoner talar om självförverkligande i termer som att bli uppmärksammad av andra, att få bekräftelse och kunna göra det man själv vill. Nyckeln till förståelse för hur våra intervjupersoner upplever balans mellan arbete och fritid finns i de individuella aspekterna, aspekter som hur individen definierar fritid, de individuella drivkrafterna till arbetet och hur självförverkligandet bidrar till att individen upplever sig som Någon.

Abstract:

Aim The specific questions in the theoretic part were: What is contained in the terms "balance and balance skill" and how can this skill be measured? The specific questions in the empirical part were: How does balance skill in different age categories of children correlate with biological and physiological parameters such as age, gender, body height, weight and level of physical activity? Methods Literature search based on books and scientific papers related to the questions posed above. Selection was made at libraries and on–line through "Pubmed". Specific search words were used. Data collected during the SIH-project, including balance tests of approximately 1700 children 10-, 13- and 16 years old, were used for the empirical part of the project. Results The literature search concluded that there is little consensus about terms such as "balance" and "balance skill". Several scientific disciplines have "their own" definition of these terms depending on whether the interpretation is purely mechanical/biomechanical, neurophysiological or from a more behaviouristic point of view. There are a number of clinical/functional as well as more "lab based" test procedures of balance function that are considered to be reliable. The empirical study showed that balance skill varies in school children 10-, 13- and 16 years of age such that the older children display better balance skills that the younger ones. There was no effect of gender on balance skill. Overweight and obese children display lower balance skill than those of normal body weight. Body height appears to have little influence on balance skill. Children with high level of physical activity seem to display better balance skills than more inactive ones. Conclusion Definitions of terms used in balance related research have not been standardized and are therefore both difficult to interpret and to implement. Balance skill in children correlates with age, body weight and level of physical activity.
Syfte och frågeställningar De specifika frågeställningarna i den teoretiska delen löd: Vad innefattas i begreppen balans och balansförmåga och hur kan dessa förmågor mätas? De specifika frågeställningarna i den empiriska delen löd: Hur är balansförmågan hos barn relaterad till ålder och kön, längd och kroppsvikt samt till graden av fysisk aktivitet? Metod Inledningsvis genomfördes en systematisk litteraturgenomgång av böcker och vetenskapliga artiklar med anknytningar till frågeställningarna. Urval av litteratur gjordes på bibliotek och via "Pubmed" där vissa specifika sökord användes. Till den empiriska delen användes data insamlade under SIH-projektet, där bland annat balanstester genomfördes på ca 1700 barn i åldrarna 10-, 13- och 16 år. Data analyserades i SPSS 11.0. Skillnader i balansförmåga mellan kön, ålderskategorier och andra relevanta variabler beräknades med chi2-test, där signifikansnivån sattes till p<0,05. Resultat Litteraturgenomgången visade att det inte råder någon egentlig konsensus kring begrepp som "balans" och "balansförmåga". Olika vetenskapliga discipliner har "sin egen" definition beroende på om begreppen skall tolkas som rent mekaniska/biomekaniska, neurofysiologiska eller mera beteendevetenskapliga. Det finns ett flertal både kliniska/funktionella och mera laboratorieanpassade mätmetoder som anses vara reliabla. Den empiriska studien visade att balansförmågan varierade hos skolbarn 10-, 13- och 16 år gamla, så att de äldre balanserade bättre än de yngre. Ingen könsskillnad i balansförmåga erhölls. Överviktiga och feta barn balanserade sämre än normalviktiga. Kroppslängd hade mindre inverkan på balansförmågan. Mycket fysiskt aktiva barn tycks ha bättre balansförmåga än mindre aktiva. Slutsats Det är svårt att finna enhetliga definitioner på flera inom balansforskningen förekommande termer och uttryck. Barns balansförmåga var relaterad till ålder, kroppsvikt och grad av fysisk aktivitet.
