Dissertations / Theses on the topic 'Hudlim'

<p>Sammanfattning</p><p>Författaren Kristoffer Larsson har skrivit rapporten tillsammans med grävlastarstillverkaren Huddig i Hudiksvall. Rapporten beskriver nyutvecklingen av Huddigs spakkonsoler. Bakgrunden till examensarbetet är att Huddig har haft kontinuerlig utveckling av sin interiör och hytt men spakkonsolerna har inte följt med i den utvecklingen. Målet med examensarbetet var att ta fram fyra olika prototyper med hänsyn på utformning, handergonomi, knapplacering, trängstyrningsfunktion, rototilt, materialval och tillverkningsmetod.</p><p>För att författaren skulle få en bild av vad det fanns för kundsynpunkter och vad andra personen som har en relation till Huddig har för synpunkter gjordes en marknadsundersökning. Därefter följde arbetet med att bryta ned arbetet och produkten i delar med olika metoder.</p><p>Åtta olika konceptförslag skissades fram och slutligen sållades sex olika delar från koncepten fram. En grupp från Huddig och författaren Kristoffer Larsson tyckte dessa delar var bäst lämpade att gå vidare med. De delar som gick vidare var:</p><p>− Konisk underdel</p><p>− Kantig form</p><p>− Dubbla rader med knappar på vänster konsol</p><p>− Utåtlutande trängstyrning</p><p>− Fram/back utåtlutande</p><p>− Tvåhandsgrepp för trängstyrningen</p><p>− Placering av stödbensreglage</p><p>Utifrån dessa kommentarer och synpunkter på de framsållade koncepten skissade författaren fram fyra koncept som valdes att göras prototyper av. Skälet till att prototyper valdes att tillverkas var att det är svårt att känna och testa om ett koncept verkligen fungerar eller inte genom att bara kolla på en skiss.</p><p>Målet med examensarbetet var att generera fram unika koncept men även att tillverka prototyper av dem, vilket uppnåddes. Utifrån resultat av denna rapport och prototyperna kan Huddig fortsätta att utveckla spakkonsolerna till en genomtänkt och smart lösning.</p><br><p>Abstract</p><p>The author Kristoffer Larsson wrote this examinations paper for the excavator loader company Huddig AB in Hudiksvall. The subject for this bachelor’s thesis is development of joystick pads at Huddig. The background for the bachelor's thesis is that Huddig have been during the last years developed and redesigning the interior of the cabin. The problem is that the joystick brackets haven’t followed the same development. The goal with this bachelor's thesis is to develop and manufacture four prototypes with consideration on design, ergonomics, bottom positions, control of steering, rototilt, choice of material and manufacturing method.</p><p>To get a picture of what the drivers want and theirs aspect of the development of the joysticks pads the author did a market research with Huddigs customers. After the market research was done some methods and functions solving methods was used to break down the product to different functions.</p><p>Eight different concepts were generated and the finial concepts were selected of a group from Huddig and Kristoffer Larsson. They selected the concepts because they taught that they were best suited to manufacture prototypes of. These are the subjects of the concepts:</p><p>− Conic underpart</p><p>− Angular design</p><p>− Double rows with bottoms at left bracket</p><p>− Tilted steering control</p><p>− Tilted transport direction shifter</p><p>− Two hand grip for steering</p><p>− Placement of hydraulic lifters</p><p>From these comments and aspects the author drew four sketches to have as guidelines for the prototypes. The reason to make prototypes was that it is hard to anticipate if a concept works in the real life based from a sketch.</p><p>The goal with this bachelor's thesis was to design and manufacture innovated concepts which have been done. From the result of the bachelor's thesis Huddig can use it to continue to develop the joystick brackets to a successful product.</p>

Title: Leadership and its implications on Work integrated social enterprises Level: Final study for Master Degree in Business Administration University of Gävle Department of Business Administration and Economic Studies 801 76 Gävle Sweden Telephone (+46) 26 64 85 00 Telefax (+46) 26 64 85 89 Web site http://www.hig.se Authors: Andreas Petersson and Ivette Solla Supervisor: Dr. Maria Fregidou-Malama Abstract Aim: Leadership and its implications on empowering employees of work integrated social enterprises Method: We based our study on the data gathered from two interviews of Coompanion in Sweden and four interviews on Work Integrated Social Enterprises of Hudiksvall. The data was gathered through case studies. Major focus of the study: How a leader and the way leadership is promoted within a social enterprise can influence the people working within a Social Enterprise and specifically the role of the empowerment in social enterprises are the major focus of this study. Situational leadership was used as the theoretic model to study the role of empowerment and motivation. In order to draw our conclusions we studied four social enterprises and Coompanion, which is an organization that works as an adviser of Social Enterprises. Result: Our analysis illustrates how the unique network consisting of the public sector, Coompanion Hudiksvall and the four Work Integrated Social Enterprises creates a win-win situation for all parts. It also creates the foundation of empowerment with a clear vision to the leaders of these four enterprises, which flows through them. Conclusion: The network, the work integrated social enterprises and the leaders within the social enterprises coexist to create social gain, increasing society’s welfare. Further studies: A quantitative research to find out what are the specific aspects that are relevant to the employees in terms of being motivated. Correlations between what the employee thinks are important and empowerment could be measured. Key words: Coompanion, motivation, empowerment, social enterprise, networking, Den glada Hudik-modellen, situational leadership, case study, qualitative method.

This thesis deals with analysis of the media image of five Czech hockey players Patrik Elias, Martin Havlat, Milan Hejduk, Jiri Hudler and Tomas Kaberle during their active career (1996 - 2017) in National Hockey League (NHL). The qualitative method analyzes texts from six Czech newspapers (Blesk, Hospodarske noviny, Lidove noviny, Mlada fronta DNES, Pravo and Sport). Thesis analyzes every twentieth article about Patrik Elias whose headline contained his surname. For the remaining hockey players the thesis analyzes every tenth article due to fewer texts. The thesis use for analysis the theory of news values, specifically the categorization of Alastair Hetherington and works with concepts of heroism, fallen heroes and celebritization. The results of the analysis describe the development of the media image of Czech hockey players, how the Czech dailies worked with events that contained given news values, how and what media image they formed. It also compares individual media images and the approach of the newspapers themselves. In conclusion, it also offers a new categorization of news values solely for the sport media area.

Introdução: Os enfermeiros são muitas vezes os profissionais de saúde a terem o primeiro contacto com os pacientes. Tendencialmente, a população em geral preocupa-se mais com a sua saúde física do que propriamente com a saúde oral. Assim, os enfermeiros são um dos agentes primordiais na missão de educar os pacientes nas variadas vertentes da saúde e também na promoção da saúde oral e prevenção das doenças orais. Objetivos: Avaliar as atitudes e os comportamentos de saúde oral dos estudantes de enfermagem. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo transversal com uma amostra aleatória de 289 estudantes de enfermagem que frequentavam a Escola Superior de Saúde da Região Centro. A recolha de dados foi efetuada através de um questionário auto-aplicado sobre as atitudes e os comportamentos de saúde oral que incluía o Hiroshima University Dental Behavioural Inventory (HUDBI), seguido de uma inspeção intra-oral. Resultados: Verificámos que 71,6% dos estudantes adotavam atitudes e comportamentos de saúde oral adequados. A média de scores de HUDBI foi de 7,3 ± 12 sendo que, este aumentava consoante o ano de curso contudo, não apresentavam diferenças estatísticas significativas. Verificou-se também que os estudantes cujos pais eram profissionais de saúde tinham melhores scores de HUDBI. Conclusão: Os resultados são consistentes com a investigação nacional e internacional, confirmando que as atitudes e os comportamentos dos estudantes de enfermagem no que consta à saúde oral são adequados. Todavia, não se confirmou a relação entre as variáveis sociodemográficas, comportamentos de risco e vigilância da saúde oral. Sugere-se que sejam implementados programas de educação para os enfermeiros recém-formados, bem como incentivar a fazer rotineiramente consultas de check-up onde serão dadas instruções e motivação para uma boa higiene oral e alertar para os fatores de risco das doenças orais.<br>Introduction: Nurses are often health professionals who have the first contact with patients. The general population tends to be more concerned with their physical health than with oral health. Thus, nurses are one of the primary agents in the mission of educating patients in the various aspects of health and also in promoting oral health and preventing oral diseases. Objectives: Evaluate the oral health attitudes and behavior of nursing students. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study with a random sample of 289 nursing students who attended Health School of Center Region. Data collection was carried out through a self-administered questionnaire on oral health attitudes and behaviors, which included the Hiroshima University Dental Behavior Inventory (HUDBI), followed by an intra-oral inspection. Results: We found that 71,6% of students adopted appropriate oral health attitudes and behaviors. The average of HUDBI scores was 7,3 ± 12, which increased according to the year of the course, however there were no statically significant differences. It was also found that students whose parents were health professionals had better HUDBI scores. Conclusion: The results are consistent with national and international research, confirming that the attitudes and behaviors of nursing students with regard to oral health are adequate. However, the relationship between sociodemographic variables, risk behaviors and oral health surveillance has not been confirmed. It is suggested that education programs should be implemented for newly graduated nurses, as well as encouraging routine check-up consultations where instructions and motivation for good oral hygiene will be given and also provide alert to risk factors for oral diseases.

Este estudo observacional e transversal pretendeu: a) Conhecer o estado de saúde oral, os comportamentos e atitudes dos alunos do 3º ano da Faculdade de Medicina Dentária da Universidade de Lisboa (FMDUL); b) Estudar as atitudes e comportamentos no âmbito da saúde oral; c) Conhecer o estado de saúde oral; d) Relacionar as atitudes e os comportamentos com o estado de saúde oral; e) Verificar a existência de diferenças entre os três cursos da FMDUL. A amostra incluiu 102 indivíduos do 3º ano dos cursos da FMDUL, que assinaram o consentimento livre, informado e esclarecido. A recolha de dados foi realizada nas instalações da instituição através da aplicação de um questionário, abordando atitudes e comportamentos relacionados com a saúde oral, que incluía a versão portuguesa do Hiroshima University Dental Behavioural Inventory (HUDBI); e através da realização de uma observação intraoral, que incluiu o registo de cárie dentária (ICDAS II), presença de hemorragia gengival (IPC modificado) e o nível de higiene oral (ID-S). A prevalência de cárie foi de 97,1%, sendo o CA-6POD 6,7 (dp=3,8). Metade dos participantes apresentou uma higiene oral boa e 49% apresentou hemorragia gengival. Verificou-se uma associação significativa e inversa entre o HUDBI e o valor CA-6POD (p=-0, 241; p=0,015). Os alunos de Higiene Oral e Medicina Dentária apresentaram valores superiores de HUDBI aos de Prótese Dentária (p=0, 001). Os alunos de Higiene Oral apresentam um melhor nível de higiene oral (p=0,005) e menos hemorragia gengival (p=0,004). Os alunos de Higiene Oral referiram consumir mais frequentemente alimentos açucarados do que os de Medicina Dentária e de Prótese Dentária (p=0,005). Os alunos do 3º ano da FMDUL apresentam bons indicadores de saúde oral no que refere ao nível de higiene oral e hemorragia gengival. Apesar de tudo, a prevalência de cárie pode considerar-se elevada.<br>This cross-sectorial observational study aimed to: a) To know the state of oral health, the behavior and attitudes of the students registered in the third year in Faculdade de Medicina Dentária da Universidade de Lisboa (FMDUL); b) To study the attitudes and behaviour in oral health; c) To know the state of oral health; d) To relate the attitudes and behaviour with oral health condition; e) Check the differences between the three FMDUL courses in behaviour, attitudes and the oral health condition. The sample included 102 subjects from the 3rd year of the FMDUL courses, who signed the free, informed and informed consent. Data collection was performed at the institution’s premises through the application of a questionnaire, addressing attitudes and behaviors related to oral health, which included the Portuguese version of Hiroshima University Dental Behavioural Inventory (HUDBI); and by performing an intraoral observation, which included dental caries registration (ICDAS II), presence of gingival haemorrhage (CPI modified), and oral hygiene level (DI-S). The prevalence of caries was 97,1% with DMFT 6,7 (sd=3,8). Half of the participants had good oral hygiene and 49% had gingival bleeding. There was a significant and inverse association between HUDBI and the value of DMFT (p= -0,241; p=0,015). Oral Hygiene and Dental Medicine students presented higher values of HUDBI than Dental Prosthesis (p=0,001). Oral hygiene students presented a better level of oral hygiene (p=0,005) and less gingival bleeding (p=0.004). Oral Hygiene students reported consuming more sugary food then those of Dental Medicine and Dental Prosthesis (p=0,005). The 3rd year students if the FMDUL present good indicators of oral health regarding the level of oral hygiene and gingival hemorrhage. Nonetheless, the prevalence of caries may be considered high.

Introdução: Os estudantes de Medicina Dentária de hoje serão os futuros médicos dentistas, sendo responsáveis pela promoção e educação para a saúde oral (SO). As atitudes e os comportamentos dos profissionais de SO para com a sua própria saúde refletem o seu entendimento da importância dos procedimentos de prevenção dos problemas orais, podendo contribuir para o aperfeiçoamento da SO dos seus pacientes. Objectivos: Comparar as atitudes e os comportamentos de SO entre estudantes portugueses e holandeses. Materiais e Métodos: Realizámos um estudo transversal numa amostra de 281 (58,1%) estudantes de Medicina Dentária da Radboud University Nijmegen e 201 (41,9%) da Universidade Católica Portuguesa, Viseu. A recolha de dados foi efetuada através de um questionário auto-aplicado sobre as atitudes e os comportamentos de SO, que incluía o inventário Hiroshima University Dental Behavioural Inventory (HUDBI). Resultados: Verificámos que 69,5% dos estudantes portugueses e 63,3% dos holandeses adotaram atitudes e comportamentos de SO pouco adequados. A média de scores do HUDBI obtida pela amostra holandesa foi superior à portuguesa (8,0±1,2 vs. 7,8±1,5; p=0,045). Os estudantes holandeses do 1º e 2º anos, cujos pais não eram profissionais de SO e eram não fumadores apresentaram melhores atitudes e comportamentos de SO comparativamente aos portugueses (p=0,013; p=0,017; p=0,048; p=0,047; respectivamente). Conclusão: Existe uma grande variabilidade relativamente às atitudes e aos comportamentos de SO entre estudantes de diferentes países, sendo que o nosso estudo apresentou resultados superiores. Ainda assim, as atitudes e os comportamentos de SO dos estudantes holandeses foram melhores que as dos portugueses. É bastante importante mudar a forma como se faz educação para a SO. O planeamento de estratégias de ensino para mudanças de comportamentos em SO deve dar relevância ao ensino de técnicas de autocuidado, no sentido de alertar para a percepção dos factores de risco que estão na origem das doenças orais.<br>Introduction: Today’s dentistry students are going to be the future dentists responsible for oral health education and promotion. Oral health professionals’ attitudes and behaviours towards their own health reflect their understanding about the importance of oral problems prevention and may contribute to the improvement of their patient´s oral health. Objectives: To compare oral health attitudes and behaviours among Portuguese and Dutch students. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross sectional study in a sample of 281 (58,1%) dentistry students of Radboud University Nijmegen and 201 (41,9%) of Portuguese Catholic University, Viseu. Data collection was performed through a selfadministered questionnaire about oral health attitudes and behaviours, which included the Hiroshima University Dental Behavioural Inventory (HUDBI). Results: We found that 69,5% of Portuguese students and 63,3% of Dutch students adopted less adequate oral health attitudes and behaviours. The average scores of HUDBI obtained by the Dutch sample was higher than the Portuguese sample (8,0±1,2 vs. 7,8±1,5; p=0,045). Dutch students of the 1st and 2nd years, whose parents were not oral health professionals and were non-smokers had better oral health attitudes and behaviours compared to Portuguese students (p=0,013; p=0,017; p=0,048; p=0,047; respectively). Conclusion: There is a wide variability in relation to oral health attitudes and behaviours among students from different countries and our study showed superior results. Still, Dutch students’ oral health attitudes and behaviours were better than the Portuguese. It is very important to change the way we do oral health education. The planning of teaching strategies for oral health behavioural changes should give importance to teaching self-care techniques, towards to alert to the perception of risk factors what are in the origin of oral diseases.
