Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka möjligheterna kring att autor-matisera konstruktionsberäknngar i ett tidigt skede. Automatiseringensker med hjälp av det parametriska verktyget Grasshopper som är ettinsticksprogram till Rhino. I skriptet kan skjuväggar optiomeras stabi-lisera byggnaden med minsta möjliga materialmängd. Skriptet optime-rar placering, antal och storlek på skjuvväggarna i detThe purpose of this master’s thesis is to examine the possiblities of auto-mating construction design calculations used in the conceptual designphase.The automation will be created in the parametric toolkit Grasshopper3D which is based on Rhinoceros 3D. The script will be able to analysedifferent shear walls position in plane and calculate the horizintal forcesand moments which depends on the amou

Mat är något som alla människor har gemensamt. Det spelar ingen roll om en ser på mat som ett sätt att ge kroppen mer energi eller som ett konstverk att uppleva; det är den del av alla människors liv. I min uppsats ämnar jag att utforska mat i dystopisk ungdomslitteratur med Hungerspelen (2008) av Suzanne Collins som exempel. Mitt förhållningssätt till materialet kommer att vara en djupdykning i H

Maintenance of telomeres in the absence of telomerase The specialized DNA-protein caps that prevent the loss of genes at the ends of the DNA strands are called telomeres. The telomeres consist of several short-repeated DNA sequences which need to be protected to prevent telomere shortening. Telomere shortening has been connected to the aging process of cells. Some cells can reverse this shorteni

Karl Staaffs park är en liten triangelformad yta som ligger på Norrmalm i Stockholm. Denna plats lämpar sig dock inte för att vara park. Ytan är liten, solen når inte fram och det passerar väldigt mycket trafik tätt inpå. I det direkta närområdet ligger det flera fina parker och grönområden. Resultatet blir att Karl Staaffs park står tom året runt. Parken skapar idag tillsammans med Erikbergsplan

This study makes an attempt to theorize drag king practices in Sweden from three theoretical perspectives: performance, politics and play. Drag kings in the Nordic countries hasn’t got much exposure in society, so the study tries to analyse their practices through interviews and field work. The field work has been conducted at two different drag shows and a drag salon. The drag salon is a meeting

The aim with this Master thesis work is to design, build and test a small size, light weight and low power consumption harmonic radar system that will be installed in a flying drone for the purpose of tracking and localizing tagged Bogong moths near their aestivation caves and crevices in Australia during summer. A FMCW harmonic radar is proposed, it comprises a radar transmitter, receiver and a s

The increasing focus on the environmental classifications and energy certification systems as well as LCA in the building industry nowadays has raised the interest in the life cycle perspective of buildings among countries, municipalities, builders and researchers. This thesis shows how Sweden is dealing with this topic comparing to the Netherlands and Turkey. By presenting a detailed literature

Late to the Party—Phenological Mismatches in Passerines Spring arrives earlier in the city than it does in the countryside. The buildings trap heat, and the lack of green spaces means there aren’t enough plants to cool down the air through evaporation. This is known as the Urban Heat-Island effect (UHI). In Malmö the temperature increase is modest—in fact, it’s just about 1 °C warmer than in Skr

Human hand gestures present a novel way of interacting with electronic devices. A millimeter-wave radar setup utilizing a pulsed Resonant-Tunneling Diode signal generator in the 60 GHz ISM band is used to measure 12 different hand gestures. The data is used to train and validate Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The measurement setup utilizes a real time sampling oscilloscope and down-mixing o

Denna uppsats behandlar polisers anställningsskydd och de avvägningar som gjorts i fall då poliser gjort sig skyldiga till brott, i förhållande till allmänhetens förtroende. Vid bedömningen har särskild vikt lagts vid att undersöka de aspekter som föranlett avsked och hur bedömningen gjorts för att fastslå avskedet. I uppsatsen har den rättsdogmatiska metoden använts för att utreda rättsläget. SoThis essay aims to discuss the Swedish legislation regarding dismissal of policemen on the grounds of a criminal offence. Furthermore, the considerations made by the Labour Court and personalansvarsnämnden vid polismyndigheten (PAN) in relation to public confidence will be discussed. In the assessment, particular emphasis has been placed on examining the aspects that prompted the dismissal. The tr

Vulkanisk aktivitet har sedan längre observerats ha en stor påverkan på klimatet. Svavelaerosoler från utbrott bildar molntäcken som kan sprida sig runt globen och hindrar en del solstrålar från att nå markytan. Till följd av detta sker en temperaturminskning av marknära luft under det område som molnet täcker. Den här kandidatuppsatsen reder ut skillnaden mellan inverkan på klimatet samt atmosfärVolcanic activity has long been observed to have a great impact on climate. Sulfate aerosols from an eruption form aerosol clouds that can spread around the globe and prevent some solar radiation from reaching the surface of the Earth. As a result, there will be a reduction of the surface air temperature below the aerosol cloud. This bachelor thesis discusses the difference between the impact on t

Under en längre tid har svenska kommuner präglats av en målstyrd verksamhetsstyrning där kontroll, mätning och uppföljningar funnits vid varje målsättning. Samtidigt satsar den offentliga sektorn på innovationsarbetet för att kunna utvecklas i takt med omvärlden. Trots detta finns det en problematik med innovationsutvecklingen då den ofta förknippas med andra branscher och tekniska uppfinningar. D

Korslimmat trä, KL-trä, är ett förhållandevis nytt byggnadsmaterial i byggbranschen. Det består av ett udda antal skikt av lameller av konstruktionsvirke, där varje skikt av lameller ligger roterade 90 grader i förhållande till intilliggande skikt. Materialet används både i den bärande stommen och som stomkomplettering i form av exempelvis trappor. Idag finns endast en etablerad tillverkare på dCross-laminated timber, CLT, is a rather new building material. It consists of an odd number of layers consisting of lumber boards stacked together, where each layer is rotated 90 degrees in comparison to the adjacent layers. The material is used both as a load-carrying element as well as a non-load-carrying element, such as stairs. Today there is only one established producer of CLT in Sweden. D

The purpose of our study is to research the sequence of strategy and structure. Due to a theoretical gap between the propositions; strategy follows structure and structure follows strategy, this indicates the need for new research in today’s dynamic environment. According to the chosen dimensions, the sequence initially follows the ideas of the structure follows strategy. However, as the strategy

This study explores how narrative identity construction of young entrepreneurs is influenced through sensemaking processes based on storytelling. In order to do so, this study has been conducted with eleven participants of an entrepreneurial hub. This entrepreneurial hub is actively engaged in training and developing skills of young entrepreneurs. The participants in our study were considered youn

This report provides an analysis and evaluation of the current spatial, environmental and financial resilience of Rågsved Centre in Stockholm. Furthermore, local future risks on resilience are also discussed and the total analysis is synthesised in a new resilient spatial interpretation of the centre. Methods of analysis include a narrative format that comprise of twelve semi-structured interviews

Why some civil wars end for good and others start up again is a complex question that inhibits many factors. This thesis argues, that the cohesiveness of rebel groups is one of the important ones in the post-conflict phase. During civil war the rebel groups can build up their political, military, and societal profile. In the aftermath of a civil war, this profile becomes one of the deciding factor
