Vi har valt att kalla personer som anser sig inte kunna sjunga för ickesångare. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöWe who have written this study love to sing. Singing is a part of our everyday life and is a great source of joy. We have both come across people who do not have the same positive relationship towards singing as we have. Therefore, we wanted to investigate what could be the reason behind this more negative approach towards singing. We have chosen to call people who consider themselves unable to si

Autonomy, agency and freedom has been central concepts in the traditional Western understanding of subjectivity. The myth about the self-contained subject with the inherent capacity of self-fullfilment as long as it only frees itself from external practical constraints and internal self-destructive thoughts is still highly present in our modern society. Even the feminist and post-colonial movement

By measuring structure-borne sound from bearings, a conclusion about their condition can be made. The measurements are done with accelerometers which should be attached as close as possi-ble to the bearing. The signal from the accelerometer may have to be lowpass filtered before being A/D-converted and stored. These steps have to be done in real time. The analysis of the signal is done afterwards.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda vem som skall bära ansvaret för sk utvecklingsfel vid småhusbyggande. Kan beställaren/köparen i alla lägen för-vänta sig ett felfritt hus? Utredningen är baserad på traditionell rättsdogmatisk metod. Bakgrund till uppsatsen är det uppmärksammade Myresjöhusfallet, T 99-12, som gällde felansvaret för ett antal småhus som byggts med sk enstegstätad fasad. ByggmetodeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the liability for developmental faults in connection with single house construction. Background to the paper is the Myresjöhus Case, T 99-12, that has attracted some public attention. The case concerned the liability for a number of single houses that were built with the construction method known as External thermal insulation composite system walls. The

Uppsatsen har haft en kvalitativ ansats. Syftet var att studera upplevelsen hos ett antal brandmän som i sin yrkesroll inom räddningstjänsten deltagit i denna omarbetade form av psykologisk debriefing som kallas kamratstöd.

This thesis is divided into two parts (1&2) with different but related scopes, they are both partly a response to Volvo Truck Australia's (VTA) wish to improve their supply chain. In 1998 this wish resulted in a global benchmark, of VTA's total inbound transports, being submitted to 13 global transporting companies. Being one of the responding companies, Volvo Transport delegated the d

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Sen den industriella revolutionen har koldioxidhalten i atmosfären nästan fördubblats, från 280 ppm till 360 ppm. Detta har skapat stora diskussioner om hur vårt klimat kommer att påverkas. Koldioxid (CO2) är en växthusgas och med detta menas att den absorberar inkommande energi och på så sätt värmer upp vår jord. I denna studie har fokusen lagts på hur vegetatiIncreasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere may substantially increase net primary productivity (NPP) and thereby increase carbon sequestration by terrestrial ecosystems. Realistic Free Air Carbon Enrichment (FACE) experiments tend to show a NPP enhancement of about 25% if CO2 is elevated by 200 ppm. In this study two generalized vegetation models, the Lund-Postsdam-Jena dynamic generalized vegetat

The project “ETT-Modular system for timber transport” investigates the possibilities of making logging shipments more effective, decrease their fuel consumption and road wear without compromising traffic safety. As part of this project a timber vehi-cle, the ETT-vehicle, that pulls four piles of timber, is 30 metres long, and has a gross combination weight of 90 tons, is tested on a distance betwe

This is the report of a master thesis in Mechanical Engineering with Industrial Design at Lund Institute of Technology, in collaboration with Dresser Wayne AB in Malmö. This master thesis aims to develop and design a new compact pay terminal for use at gas stations. Before the end of 2010 a new standard for credit card handling will be introduced in most of Europe. This new standard is called EM
