Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to design a capacity flexible assembly line with as few wastes as possible in the internal material supply chain. The reports secondary purpose is to show the advantages of involving logistics in the design phase of an assembly line. Method: The study starts of with an explanative approach as assembly line six is investigated and wastes are identified.

Tourism is one of the world’s biggest industries; it accounts for 11% of the global GDP, and is responsible for between 5 to 14% of the world’s global warming caused by human activities.

The problems stem from the fact that urban expansion has been sometimes

Beginning with researching past, present and future tent structures, analyzing the tent market and the use of party tents, the initial aim of creating a truly modular party tent that is suited for its purpose was processed, discussed and refined into four design directions. With help from a thorough function analysis and evaluation, a winning direction was chosen and developed further. With help f

I wanted the project to display a possible vision of the future of transport in winter environment with sustainability in focus. Snowmobiles mostly run with oil smoking two stroke engines which pollute the environment. Smell, noise, high toxic output and bad fuel economy. Can it be solved with alternative sources of energy? How will an alternative source of energy change the conditions for the pro

Studiens syfte är att undersöka sambandet mellan barns förmåga till perspektivtagande och deras kognitiva respons på jämlikars affektiva upplevelser. 90 stycken andraklassare respektive 119 stycken fjärdeklassare deltog i studien. Svarsfrekvensen var 83 %. The Interpersonal Negotiating Strategies Interview (Schultz et al., 1989) användes för att mäta deltagarnas förmåga att särskilja och koordiner
