Abstract:
This thesis investigates the history of Skylab from political, social, and public relations perspectives. It focuses on the reasons to build Skylab, the difficulties Skylab met and most importantly how NASA overcame these difficulties by selling Skylab actively. The thesis argues that in order to maximize popular support and interest in Skylab to secure funding, NASA improved its public relations and sold Skylab according to public expectations. The first chapter explores how and why NASA selected Skylab as the program to succeed Apollo. Politically, NASA built Skylab for national prestige and to facilitate international cooperation. Socioeconomically and scientifically, Skylab provided employment opportunities and improved people’s daily life. These features of Skylab diverged from the competitive nature of the early space program, and gave NASA new justifications for continuing the space program. The second chapter focuses on budgetary limitations, and inadequate popular support and interest towards Skylab. Many voices from the public criticized the American space program for not bringing practical benefits. These voices urged the United States government to cut spending for space exploration, and channel the resources to areas such as public works and education instead. NASA was aware of these challenges and publicized Skylab accordingly. The final Chapter explores how NASA tailored its presentation of Skylab according to the interest of different stakeholders, so to assuage their concerns and gain their support for Skylab. NASA sold the space station by actively involving members from the public such as students and scientists in Skylab. Skylab became a project which was worth the high cost, and which could contribute practically to society.<br>published_or_final_version<br>History<br>Master<br>Master of Philosophy

Abstract:
Det finns ett stort intresse för omega-3 idag på grund av dess många hälsogivande egenskaper. Brist på vissa typer av fett i kosten kan vara en viktig faktor för kognitiv nedsättning, demens och Alzheimers sjukdom. Dokosahexaensyra (DHA) är den dominerande omega-3-fettsyran i hjärnan. Det finns många faktorer som förklarar varför fettsyraintaget kan påverka kognitiva funktioner och risken att bli dement. Obduktionsstudier visar att patienter med Alzheimer har mindre mängd DHA i hjärnan än kognitivt intakta individer. Dessutom är serumkoncentrationerna av DHA reducerade i relation till sjukdomens svårighetsgrad. Vad som är orsak och verkan i denna process är dock inte klart. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning omega-3 kan förebygga demens hos friska medelålders eller äldre (&gt; 50 år) personer. Av de sex studier som inkluderades var två randomiserade kliniska prövningar (RCT), tre longitudinella och en tvärsnittsstudie. Två av mina utvalda studier stödjer hypotesen att omega-3 skyddar mot demens hos friska äldre, två av studierna hittar inga bevis för att omega-3 skyddar mot demens. De två randomiserade kontrollerade försök som jag hittat undersöker inverkan av omega-3 på den kognitiva förmågan och det ena försöket hittar ingen generell effekt av omega-3 på den kognitiva förmågan och det andra försöket kommer fram till att omega-3 utövar positiva effekter på den kognitiva förmågan hos friska äldre. Inga näringsrekommendationer är möjliga att ge med hjälp av denna studie.

Abstract:
This thesis deals with an architectural case study of the urban block in the Svitava industrial zone bordered by the Svitava River in the east, Ring Road in the west, Milady Horákové Street in the north and Zvonařka Street in the south. Špitálka Smart City has been designed to be in this area. The thesis is modelled on the Špitálka Smart City urban study, that was the outcome of the pre-thesis seminar in the winter term 2020/21. The urban study objective was the urban renewal of the Brno teplárny (heating plant) area and its surroundings as well as a design of a new urban boulevard. The thesis focuses on a design of a selected urban block in the Smart City Špitálka. This mixed-use development provides commercial, administrative and residential functions. The block is divided into two parts; either part consists of three sections. Two underground storeys providing parking space and space for building services are intended for the whole block. The case study further develops only the section that is labeled Coworking offering six floors for coworking spaces. On the ground floor there are spaces for a café, commerce and also the main entry to the co-working offices. A sky-office and a venue for rent are located on the seventh floor. The venue can be used for a wide range of events from smaller conferences, through corporate meetings & teambuildings to private parties. Both the sky-office and the venue have access to the rooftop terrace. The design creates a modern office building concept in the former industrial zone.

Abstract:
This work attempts to focus on the human side of Skylab, America's first space station, from 1973 to 1974. The thesis begins by showing some context for Skylab, especially in light of the Cold War and the “space race” between the United States and the Soviet Union. The development of the station, as well as the astronaut selection process, are traced from the beginnings of NASA. The focus then shifts to changes in NASA from the Apollo missions to Skylab, as well as training, before highlighting the three missions to the station. The work then attempts to show the significance of Skylab by focusing on the myriad of lessons that can be learned from it and applied to future programs.

Abstract:
Detta är sammanställning av en lista med åtgärder till helt vanliga datoranvändare för hur dessa ska skydda sig mot skadlig kod. Fokus ligger på misstag av den mänskliga faktorn och mitigering utifrån dessa.  Arbetet innehåller en litteraturstudie och ett experiment. Experimentet är uppdelat så att flera åtgärder mot skadlig kod kunde testas. Litteraturstudien redogör för fakta om de olika typerna av skadlig kod. Med hjälp av experimentet kunde ett flertal åtgärder mot skadlig kod användas i listan som sammanställdes. Experimentet visar framförallt hur viktigt det är med enkla uppdateringar av antivirusprogram och operativsystem.

Abstract:
Cities hold a varied collection of individuals and provide unique adjacencies for those who live, work, and play in their urban fabrics. The relationship between the city and the individual has many facets, and this project is an exploration of one aspect of that relationship. What we do, and the way we do things, can be influenced by what we see and visually connect with as we move about the city. <p> This thesis thus explores the simple notion of having a view. A view being the gateway into understanding a city, and connecting to it. It is a means to reference oneâ s self to the city. The experience of a view takes on varied scales, and the fundamental initiative in this project has been the exploration of a private view out to a public vista.<br>Master of Architecture

Abstract:
<p>As the companies of today are good at protecting themselves against external threats, but are having problems with internal threats, we focused on how information can be protected from ending up in the wrong hands. First and foremost to protect information from employees who might steal it and sell it to another company. Since the security investments needed are connected to the financial costs of implementing them we have tried to create a balance between the investments needed and the cost of implementing them. The different kinds of protection needed are first and foremost protection to make data less accessable, passwords and traceability. While it is hard for us to estimate the amount of money a company lose by the hour when the production stands still, we have not been able to use any of the excising models to calculate the profit of installing countermeasures. We have, however, been able to find a model that works excellent for the average company who is beginning to install computer security.</p><br><p>Då dagens företag är duktiga på att skydda sig mot hot utifrån, men har svårare med interna hot har vi försökt att inrikta oss på hur informationen skall skyddas från att komma i felaktiga händer. Då i första hand från att anställda skall stjäla den och sälja den vidare. Då omfattningen av skydd som skall installeras är kopplade till hur kostnaden för de åtgärder som krävs har vi försökt skapa en balansgång mellan de skydd som är aktuella och kostnaden för dessa. De skydd som är aktuella är framförallt olika skydd mot åtkomst av data, lösenordshantering och spårbarhet i systemet. Då det är svårt för oss att uppskatta hur mycket ett företag förlorar per timme som produktionen står still har vi inte kunnat nyttja någon av de färdiga modeller som finns för att räkna på förtjänsten med att installera säkerhetsåtgärder kontra att inte göra det. Dock har vi hittat en modell som fungerar utmärkt för genomsnittsföretaget som skall börja med datasäkerhet.</p>

Abstract:
The results of the fourth part of the Rhodes University Skymap Program are presented. The observations cover the area of sky between right ascension 14h00m and 02h30m and declination -26⁰ and + 13⁰ at a frequency of 2.3 GHz. Contour maps of this region, with a resolution of 0.38⁰, are presented. Various methods of reducing the effect of the Galactic disc emission are analyzed. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of one of these methods in the production of a flat base level. The filamentary structure of the North Polar Spur is enhanced and results are obtained which support current theories of the origin of this object. The HII region surrounding Ophiuchi is examined in detail. A number of parameters are derived for the HII region. The spur associated with the HII region S54 is also examined. A listing of 1105 point sources appearing in the maps is presented. The limiting flux density of this listing is 0.5 Jy

Abstract:
Denna rapport beskriver ett examensarbete inom integrerad produktutveckling vid Högskolan i Skövde. Arbetet utfördes i samarbete med företaget The Best of Sweden AB där uppdraget var att utveckla ett fäste och skyltar för bakrutetorkare på personbilar. Utvecklingsprocessen för produkten började med en förstudie där bland annat kundbehov undersöktes. Under förstudien undersöktes även olika faktorer som kan komma att påverka produkten i dess användningsmiljö, exempelvis bilars aerodynamik och kraften i bakrutetorkarens motor. En fältstudie genomfördes på existerande torkararmar som fästets och skyltarnas mått grundas på. Resultatet från förstudien var en kravspecifikation som det slutliga konceptet ska kunna ställas mot. Olika strukturerade designmetoder användes under konceptgenerering samt konceptutvärdering som följdes upp av detaljutveckling. Förslag på material och tillverkningsmetod samt ett kostnadsförslag togs fram. Resultatet blev en fästanordning och skyltar för bakrutetorkaren på personbilar vilket gör det möjligt för användaren att montera personifierade skyltar i olika format. Fästanordningen består av ett fäste och en rem, där remmen spänns åt runt torkararmen och håller fästet på plats. Produktens symmetri medför att den kan placeras på torkararmar oavsett om torkararmen går vänster- eller högervarv.<br>This thesis discloses a bachelor degree project in Product Design Engineering at the University of Skövde. The project was performed in collaboration with a company called The Best of Sweden AB where the assignment was to develop a universal mount and signs for rear window wipers on cars. The development process started with a prestudy where customer needs where analyzed. Different factors which affect the product in the environment of use, such as the aerodynamics of cars and the force in the rear window wiper engine, were examined as well during the prestudy. A field study was carried out on existing rear window wipers which became the basis of the dimensions of the signs as well as the mount. The result of the pilot study ended in a list of requirements that the final concept was to be compared to. Different structured design methods was used during concept generation as well as concept evaluation which was followed by a development of the details of the final concept. A proposition of material selection and manufacturing method was determined as well as an estimation of manufacturing cost. The result was a fastening device and signs for rear window wipers on cars which makes it possible for the user to mount personalized signs if various different formats. The fastening device consists of a base mount and a strap, where the strap is tightened around the rear window wiper and keeps the base mount in place. The symmetry of the product enables it to be mounted to a rear window wiper that either rotates clockwise or counter-clockwise.
