Abstract:
Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering, 2006.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 76-81).
The cost of manufacturing electronic displays currently limits the range of applications and markets into which it is currently economically feasible to adopt displays. Roll-to-roll manufacturing has been identified by the display industry as a new and fundamentally different manufacturing paradigm that has the potential to significantly reduce the manufacturing cost of a display relative to the conventional approaches used in the industry. This manufacturing cost reduction could have a profound impact on the display industry by not only transforming the display manufacturing infrastructure, but also by permitting electronic displays to penetrate new markets. The purpose of this thesis is to determine how roll-to-roll manufacturing technology could develop and to assess what impact the technology could have on the electronic display manufacturing industry. This work first identifies the material, patterning, and equipment technologies that need to come together in order for roll-to-roll manufacturing to be industrially feasible, and then determines how and if the technology will offer a cost reduction over conventional manufacturing techniques.
(cont.) Next, the markets for displays are segmented and analyzed to discern whether niche initial markets exist where roll-to-roll could have a distinctive advantage and gain traction. Competitive technologies such as LCD and modular LED are discussed and it is determined that roll-to-roll displays must compete with LCD technology on the basis of price in the markets in which LCD has incumbency in order to achieve widespread adoption. The display industry structure is analyzed by means of an assessment of the supply chain, intellectual property landscape, financing mechanisms, and business models to understand how partnerships and financial investment risk are salient aspects of the commercialization process. It is concluded that materials cost advantages over current manufacturing approaches and the timing of roll-to-roll technology integration developments relative to the incremental manufacturing cost decreases in competing technologies will ultimately dictate the success of roll-to-roll manufacturing.

In 2008, a group of MIT Master of Engineering students built a roll to roll machine for printing thiol onto a flexible gold substrate by self-assembly. The machine demonstrated good performance in high speed printing (400 ft/min). Since single layer printing is limited in industrial application, we reconfigured this machine for multi-layer printing . Our project includes developing a device that can fabricate high quality stamps, which is vital in print quality; increasing the roll to roll machine accuracy in critical components, which helps increases the machine's repeatability. In addition, we have designed a multilayer printing system using the same technology and demonstrated it with the upgraded machine. The flat stamp cast by the new machine can achieve the flatness of ±16 [micro]m with thickness of 1194 [micro]m, compared to ±32 [micro]m of stamp made with other machine. An initial experiment with multi-layer printing using the upgraded machine has shown that better control of the roll drive system and better registration measurement will be required to meet the necessary specification. However, the first experiment did can achieve alignment errors of 1017 [micro]m along the printing direction and 113 [micro]m across the printing direction

Abstract:
Cold roll forming is an extremely important but little studied sheet metal forming process. In this thesis, the process of cold roll forming is introduced and it is seen that form roll design is central to the cold roll forming process. The conventional design and manufacture of form rolls is discussed and it is observed that surrounding the design process are a number of activities which although peripheral are time consuming and a possible source of error. A CAD/CAM system is described which alleviates many of the problems traditional to form roll design. New techniques for the calculation of strip length and controlling the means of forming bends are detailed. The CAD/CAM system's advantages and limitations are discussed and, whilst the system has numerous significant advantages, its principal limitation can be said to be the need to manufacture form rolls and test them on a mill before a design can be stated satisfactory. A survey of the previous theoretical and experimental analysis of cold roll forming is presented and is found to be limited. By considering the previous work, a method of numerical analysis of the cold roll forming process is proposed based on a minimum energy approach. Parallel to the numerical analysis, a comprehensive range of software has been developed to enhance the designer's visualisation of the effects of his form roll design. A complementary approach to the analysis of form roll design is the generation of form roll design, a method for the partial generation of designs is described. It is suggested that the two approaches should continue in parallel and that the limitation of each approach is knowledge of the cold roll forming process. Hence, an initial experimental investigation of the rolling of channel sections is described. Finally, areas of potential future work are discussed.

Abstract:
Harnessing the power of the sun through photovoltaic cells is a new area of research and development and may hold the key to sustainable energy on earth. Currently, solar cells and panels with high efficiencies have been successfully created on a laboratory scale. However, in order for solar panels to be marketable and serve as a realistic replacement for current energy sources, a large-scale, high-throughput, and low-cost production system must be devised that is competitive with very cheap fossil fuels that currently dominate the market. The goal of this project is to mass scale the production and manufacturing of inorganic solar cells using cost-effective, roll-to-roll printing methods. Annually, 676 MW of power will be produced, representing 71% of the total US market share for photovoltaic technology, and sold to market at the price of $1/Watt. The design of the solar cell is based on a CuInS₂ absorber layer, ZnS buffer layer and ZnO and ZnO:Ga window layer. The film is printed on a flexible aluminum substrate, 20 inches wide, at a continuous rate of 100 ft/min and a silver-based metal contact is deposited on top. Over the project lifetime, a net present value assuming a 15% nominal interest of $1.7 billion is anticipated.

Abstract:
Changes in modern structural design have created a demand for products which are light but possess high strength. The objective is a reduction in fuel consumption and weight of materials to satisfy both economic and environmental criteria. Cold roll forming has the potential to fulfil this requirement. The bending process is controlled by the shape of the profile machined on the periphery of the rolls. A CNC lathe can machine complicated profiles to a high standard of precision, but the expertise of a numerical control programmer is required. A computer program was developed during this project, using the expert system concept, to calculate tool paths and consequently to expedite the procurement of the machine control tapes whilst removing the need for a skilled programmer. Codifying the expertise of a human and the encapsulation of knowledge within a computer memory, destroys the dependency on highly trained people whose services can be costly, inconsistent and unreliable. A successful cold roll forming operation, where the product is geometrically correct and free from visual defects, is not easy to attain. The geometry of the sheet after travelling through the rolling mill depends on the residual strains generated by the elastic-plastic deformation. Accurate evaluation of the residual strains can provide the basis for predicting the geometry of the section. A study of geometric and material non-linearity, yield criteria, material hardening and stress-strain relationships was undertaken in this research project. The finite element method was chosen to provide a mathematical model of the bending process and, to ensure an efficient manipulation of the large stiffness matrices, the frontal solution was applied. A series of experimental investigations provided data to compare with corresponding values obtained from the theoretical modelling. A computer simulation, capable of predicting that a design will be satisfactory prior to the manufacture of the rolls, would allow effort to be concentrated into devising an optimum design where costs are minimised.

In 2008, a prototype machine demonstrating the application of roll-to-roll technology in micro-contact printing was developed. In this research, the prototype machine was upgraded by designing and machining a device that could fabricate a flat stamp with significantly less variance. The print roll wrapping system was reconfigured in order to capture the stamp with uniform force and good alignment. The motion control for the print roller and impression roller was also improved. In addition multi-layer printing with the updated machine was tested. This thesis focuses on the general design of the updated system and the measurement of key components of the systems as well as the print quality. Results demonstrate that the flat stamp can achieve the flatness of ±16 [micro]m with thickness of 1194 [micro]m; that the wrapping process can guarantee a print roller roundness error in the 20 [micro]m range; that the distortion of the print using the updated system is approximately 3.8. The multi-layer printing test did not achieve acceptable results owing to a lack of proper control of the machine. However, initial trials, achieved alignment errors of 1017 [micro]m along the printing direction and 113 [micro]m across the printing direction.

Roll-to-roll flexible electronics manufacturing technologies require new sensing and measurement capabilities for defect detection and process control. This body of work investigates the use of ultrasound, specifically Lamb and longitudinal waves, as a sensing modality and measurement technique for thin film roll-to-roll manufacturing. A variety of custom wedges were designed and machined from multiple materials to test their suitability at launching ultrasonic Lamb waves along Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) film. Using hydrogel wedges, the fundamental antisymmetric (Ao) Lamb wave mode was successfully propagated a distance of 2 cm. ABS wedges were found to initiate longitudinal waves, which were detected at a distance of 5 cm. InstronTM based extension-tensile experiments revealed that the longitudinal wave is affected by tension in the PET, exhibited by a general increase in attenuation and a decrease in wave speed during plastic deformation; such variation may have process control applications.

Full text
Abstract:

In Roll-to-Roll (R2R) manufacturing, efficient transport of flexible materials (webs) on rollers requires simultaneous control of web speed and tension. Webs experience disturbing forces during transport due to nonideal machine elements and processes such as printing, coating, lamination, etc. Since rotating machine elements are employed, these disturbances are in the form of periodic oscillations in web tension and speed. Design of efficient model-based web tension and speed control systems employing both feedback and feedforward actions that can adapt to changes in parameters and reject periodic disturbances were investigated in this research. Tools from adaptive and robust control theory and singular perturbation method were utilized for the design and analysis of these control systems.

Model reference and relay feedback based adaptive Proportional-Integral (PI) tension control schemes were developed to regulate web tension; these schemes overcome the tedious tuning procedures required for fixed gain PI schemes when process parameters and conditions change. To directly control the roll speed when belt-pulley and gear transmissions are employed, a control scheme that uses both motor and load speed feedback is developed. In the presence of a compliant transmission system, it is shown that using pure load speed feedback must be avoided as it results in an unstable system. In situations where linearization of the nonlinear web tension governing equation is not possible due to changes in operating conditions, a nonlinear tension regulator is designed via a solution method employed in the nonlinear servomechanism problem. The feedforward action is synthesized by considering a discretized form of the tension governing equation in conjunction with adaptive estimation of periodic disturbance parameters. It is also shown that interaction between different subsystems of the R2R system may be minimized by employing feedforward action. The strategy of utilizing tension signal from the web tension zone downstream of the driven roller is shown to result in minimization of propagation of disturbances into further downstream tension zones. For each of the developed designs, experiments were conducted on a large R2R platform for different web materials and transport conditions to evaluate and compare their performance. Implementation guidelines are provided for ease of applying the designs to other industrial R2R machines.

Abstract:
Computer integrated manufacture has brought about great advances in manufacturing technology and its recognition is world wide. Cold roll forming of thin-walled sections, and in particular the design and manufacture of form-rolls, the special tooling used in the cold roll forming process, is but one such area where computer integrated manufacture can make a positive contribution. The work reported in this thesis, concerned with the development of an integrated manufacturing system for assisting the design and manufacture of form-rolls, was undertaken in collaboration with a leading manufacturer of thin-walled sections. A suit of computer programs, written in FORTRAN 77, have been developed to provide computer aids for every aspect of work in form-roll design and manufacture including cost estimation and stock control aids. The first phase of the development programme dealt with the establishment of CAD facilities for form-roll design, comprising the design of the finished section, the flower pattern, the roll design and the interactive roll editor program. Concerning the CAM facilities, dealt with in the second phase, an expert system roll machining processor and a general post-processor have been developed for considering the roll geometry and automatically generating NC tape programs for any required CNC lathe system. These programs have been successfully implemented, as an integrated manufacturing software system, on the VAX 11/750 super-minicomputer with graphics facilities for displaying drawings interactively on the terminal screen. The development of the integrated system has been found beneficial in all aspects of form-roll design and manufacture. Design and manufacturing lead times have been reduced by several weeks, quality has improved considerably and productivity has increased. The work has also demonstrated the promising nature of the expert systems approach to computer integrated manufacture.

Abstract:
A detailed literature survey confirmed cold roll-forming to be a complex and little understood process. In spite of its growing value, the process remains largely un-automated with few principles used in set-up of the rolling mill. This work concentrates on experimental investigations of operating conditions in order to gain a scientific understanding of the process. The operating conditions are; inter-pass distance, roll load, roll speed, horizontal roll alignment. Fifty tests have been carried out under varied operating conditions, measuring section quality and longitudinal straining to give a picture of bending. A channel section was chosen for its simplicity and compatibility with previous work. Quality measurements were measured in terms of vertical bow, twist and cross-sectional geometric accuracy, and a complete method of classifying quality has been devised. The longitudinal strain profile was recorded, by the use of strain gauges attached to the strip surface at five locations. Parameter control is shown to be important in allowing consistency in section quality. At present rolling mills are constructed with large tolerances on operating conditions. By reduction of the variability in parameters, section consistency is maintained and mill down-time is reduced. Roll load, alignment and differential roll speed are all shown to affect quality, and can be used to control quality. Set-up time is reduced by improving the design of the mill so that parameter values can be measured and set, without the need for judgment by eye. Values of parameters can be guided by models of the process, although elements of experience are still unavoidable. Despite increased parameter control, section quality is variable, if only due to variability in strip material properties. Parameters must therefore be changed during rolling. Ideally this can take place by closed-loop feedback control. Future work lies in overcoming the problems connected with this control.

Examensarbete, civilekonomprogrammet inriktning Controller, Ekonomihögskolan vid Linnéuniversitetet, Växjö.  Kurskod 4FE18E, 30hp, VT2019   Författare: Mikael Bergström och Louise Samuelsson Handledare: Elin Funck   Titel: Controllerns roll - från generalisering till nyansering   Bakgrund: I takt med att företagen och dess ekonomistyrning utvecklats sägs controllerrollen gått från att vara en beancounter till en affärsinriktad business partner. Det finns dock en oenighet i hur, och hur långt, utvecklingen skett och argument har förts fram att det fullständiga skiftet inte materialiserats utan att det istället är en hybridiserad roll som syns. Trots att det öppnats upp för att det är en heterogen roll har det linjära tänket kring rollens utveckling lett till generaliseringar och otydligheter i hur rollen beskrivs.   Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att identifiera olika faktorer som påverkar rollen för controllers samt förklara hur dessa faktorer påverkar controllers i olika riktningar och mot olika roller. Ambitionen och det övergripande syftet är därmed att generera en djupgående kunskap och förståelse samt att nyansera bilden av controllerrollen.   Metod: Studien centrerar kring en kvalitativ intervjustudie av studieobjektet controllers. Semistrukturerade intervjuer har genomförts med controllers på tre stora företag inom den tillverkande sektorn för att ge en relevant bredd till det empiriska materialet.   Slutsatser: Ett bidrag ges till teorin dels genom resultatet som visar att det är en hybridiserad roll som återfinns men också genom att olika faktorer som påverkar rollen har identifierats samt diskuterats och använts för att nyansera och urskilja olika inriktningar av rollen utifrån vilken nivå eller position controllern jobbar på. Förväntningar och uppfattningar ses påverka genom att möjliggöra och öppna upp för en bred och inkluderande roll och erfarenhet ses påverka arbets- och förhållningssättet till att bli mer aktivt och med ett förändrat analytiskt tillvägagångssätt. I och med att mönster har kunnat urskiljas vad gäller arbetsuppgifter och handlingar samt vad som är viktig kunskap, kompetens och egenskaper i förhållande till den organisatoriska positionen ses dessa i kombination påverka rollen i olika riktningar. Alla positioner och nivåer ses innehålla drag av rollbeskrivningen analytiker. Ledningsnivån samt positionen finance ses också påverkas åt coach, positionerna RnD, logistik och produktion påverkar åt pedagog och positionen redovisning åt kamrer. Sist ses arbete på den operativa nivån påverka rollen åt såväl pedagog som kamrer.
Degree Project in Controlling, The Business Administration and Economics Programme. School of Business and Economics at Linnaeus university, Växjö. Course code 4FE18E, 30 credits. Spring semester 2019   Authors: Mikael Bergström and Louise Samuelsson Supervisor: Elin Funck   Title: The controller role - from generalization to nuance   Background: As the companies and their management accounting has developed, the controller role is said to have gone from that of a beancounter towards a business oriented business partner. However, there is a disagreement in how, and how far, the development has gone and arguments has been made that the complete transition has not materialized, and that the role can rather be seen as a hybrid. Despite the fact that the theoretical framework has opened up for a heterogenous role, the linear thinking in regards to the development of the role has led to generalisations and ambiguity in how the role is described.   Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify different factors that affect the roles for controllers, as well as explaining how these factors affect controllers in various directions and towards various roles. The ambition along with the general purpose is therefore to generate a deeper knowledge and understanding as well as painting a more nuanced picture of controllers and their different roles in a company.   Method: The thesis is centered around a qualitative interview study of controllers as a professional group. Semi-structured interviews have been performed with controllers from three large manufacturing companies in order to provide a relevant depth and width for the empirical material.      Conclusions: A contribution is made to the theoretical framework, in part through the result of the thesis that conclude a hybridization of the role. The second contribution is that various factors that affect the role have been identified as well as discussed and utilized in order to distinguish different directions of the role pending on what level or in which position the controller is active. Expectations and opinions are seen to affect and open up for a broad and including role, while experience affect how controllers work as well as their analytical approach in different assignments. Patterns have emerged in regard to assignments, actions, important attributes and competencies that, combined with the organizational aspect, is seen to push the role in different directions. In accordance with this, all positions and levels include the role of analyst to some degree. Additionally, the managerial level as well as the position of finance show signs that point to a coach-role, the positions of RnD, logistics and production include an educator-perspective, and the position of accounting connect to the role of a chamberlain. Lastly, the operational level show signs of pushing the role towards that of both an educator and a chamberlain.

Abstract:
Examensarbetet inleddes med en förstudie där olika förbättringsområden inom organisationen identifierades. Kommunikation i praktiken kan liknas vid ett förstärkningsverktyg vilket påverkar de vanligaste faktorerna för ett lyckat förändringsarbete. Idag måste en ledare och chef vara kommunikativ och det fungerar inte längre med att peka med hela handen. Medarbetarna måste förstå sin chef och ledare och det måste finnas ett samspel mellan dem. För att chefer och ledare ska styra förändringsprocessen behövs kommunikation. Syfte med examensarbetet är att undersöka hur kommunikationsprocessen kan användas som styrmedel mot en social förändring. Målet med examensarbetet är att beskriva kommunikation för förändring på Volvo i Olofström och att identifiera förbättringsområden inom organisationen. Examensarbetets avsikt är att undersöka olika synvinklar ur kommunikation, ledarskap och förbättringar kring en förändringsprocess. De slutsatser som examensarbetet visar är att kommunikationsprocessen kan användas som styrmedel via information, kommunikation, möten och genom dialog. Kommunikation måste ske via chef och ledare och visuellt ledarskap. Kommunikation innebär att i dialog tala med varandra. Förbättringsarbetet som påbörjats bör fortsätta som del i organisationens förändringsarbete. Utifrån målbeskrivningen - Hur ledare kommunicerar för att uppnå förändringsmål visar resultat att chef/ledare ansvarar för kommunikations-processen när det gäller planering och genomförande av förändring i en arbetsgrupp. Organisationen kan då se chef/ledare som en förändringsledare. Förändringens resultat påverkas av hur kommunikationen genomförs. Förändring och utveckling sker via kommunikation och dialog i en samverkan. Utifrån målbeskrivningen – Hur kommunikation kan leda medarbetare mot förändring bör chef/ledare börja med att diskutera och kommunicera vad det innebär att gå från ett läge till ett annat läge i en LEAN förändring. Vidare visar resultat att chef/ledare behöver studera innebörden av resultat via analys och diskussion men framför allt vad det innebär att ge support och feedback. Strategisk kommunikation kan vara den del som saknas då kommunikation inte förstås. Utifrån målbeskrivningen – Hur Kommunikationen påverkas av LEAN ledarskap på Volvo Personvagnar AB Karosskomponenter (VCBC) noteras i resultatdelen att förändring och ledarskap inte kopplas ihop. Då kan chef/ledare inte utveckla kommunikationsprocessen mot en social förändring.
This thesis work began with a pre-study which intended to identify areas of improvement within the organization. Communication in practice is like a strengthening tool, which affects the most common factors for successful change management. Today, a manager must be communicative; just to point out the direction is not longer working. Employees must understand their manager and leader, and there must be an interaction between them. For managers to guide the change process communications is needed. The purpose of the thesis work is to investigate how the communication process can be used as instruments of social change. The goal of the project is to describe the communication of change at Volvo in Olofström and to identify areas for improvement within the organization. The intention is to examine different perspectives from communication, leadership and improvement on a process of change. The conclusions of the thesis work are that the communication process can be used as instruments through information, communication, meetings, and through dialogue. Communication goes through the manager and leader, and visual management. Communication means dialogue and to talk to each other.  The Improvement work which has started should be continued as part of the organization's change process. The central part of - How leaders communicate in order to achieve the goals of implementation. The responsibility of the communication process lies with the manager / leader for planning and implementing of the change in a workgroup. The organization can see the manager / leader as a leader of change. The results of implementation are affected by how communication is carried out. Change and development is done through communication and dialogue in an interaction. The central part of - How communication can lead people through implementation and development. It is up to the manager / leader to begin to discuss and communicate the meaning of transformation in a LEAN implementation. Furthermore the manager / leader need to study the implications of the results through analysis and discussion, but above all what it means to give support and feedback. Strategic communication can be the part that is missing when communication is not to be interpreted. The central part of - How communication is affected by LEAN leadership at Volvo Cars Body Components (VCBC). Found in the results is that change and leadership can’t connect to each other. In this case manager / leader do not develop the communication process of social change.

Abstract:
Abstrakt Bakgrund: Bilindustrin står i dagsläget mitt i en omstrukturering av marknaden, där ansvar för produktion av detaljer förflyttas från biltillverkarna till underleverantörerna. Med denna omstrukturering följer högre krav på kvalitetsnivå och kostnadspress som underleverantörerna måste förhålla sig till. Fallföretaget (Företag X) gjorde cirka 2015 en strategiförändring från att enbart tillverka detaljer till reservdelsmarknaden (eftermarknad) till att även producera till nybilsmarknaden (serieproduktion) där målet var att skapa tillväxt och lönsamhet. Efter strategiförändringen har Företag X vuxit snabbt, men samtidigt har lönsamheten sjunkit till att 2018 vara obefintlig. Affärerna som upphandlas uppvisar positiva marginaler, vilket skapar förvirring i företaget om orsakerna bakom de finansiella prestationerna. Någonstans i deras processer sker något som styrningen inte fångar eller förvarnar om.   Syfte: Syftet med studien är att kartlägga strategiförändringen, implementeringen och Företag X:s styrning för att skapa en ökad förståelse för hur styrning kan stödja en strategiförändring från eftermarknad till att även inkludera serieproduktion. Vidare skall studien bidra med rekommendationer för kritiska egenskaper i styrningen som behöver fokuseras på i samband med en strategiförändring. Ett bidrag skapas även genom att avbilda den resa Företag X har genomgått och vilka utmaningar den har bidragit med.   Metod: Studien grundas i en fallstudie på Företag X, där en växling mellan referensramen och den empiriska insamlingen har nyttjats för att möjliggöra en justering av referensramen för att matcha studiens riktning. Genom att använda metoderna kunde vi uppfylla syftet med studien och därmed skapa ett relevant, teoretiskt bidrag till forskningen.   Resultat: Företag X:s styrning fångar inte beslutsrelevant information och därmed skapas en problematik i företaget. De måste förtydliga styrningen utefter de rekommendationer som delges. Vidare är de kritiska egenskaperna som behöver fokuseras på i styrningen: stödjande, signalerande, diagnostiserande, säkerställande, informationsspridande och motivationsskapare.
Abstract Background: The automobile industry is currently experiencing a reconstructuring of the market, where the responsibility of detail production is transferred between the car manufacturers to their subcontractors. The transference of responsibility also includes an increase in demand from the car manufacturers to the subcontractors to deliver higher quality products at a low cost. The case company (Company X) changed their strategy 2015 to include new car manufacturing in their already existing spare-part production with the intention to create growth and profitability. After the strategic change Company X has grown rapidly, but at the same time profitability has decreased and 2018 the profitability was non-existent. The business agreements show positive margins, which creates confusion in the company about is causing the decrease in financial performance. Somewhere in their processes something is happening that the management control systems aren’t capturing or warn about.        Purpose: The purpose of the study is to map the strategy change, implementation and Company X's management control to create an increased understanding of how management control can support a strategy change from only producing spare-parts to also include manufacturing of new cars. Furthermore, the study will contribute with recommendations for critical features of management control that needs to be focused upon during strategic change. A contribution is also created by depicting the journey that Company X has undergone and what challenges it has contributed with.   Method: The study is based on a case study of Company X, where an iteration between the reference frame and the empirical collection took place to enable an adjustment of the reference frame to match the direction of the study. By utilizing the methods, we were able to fulfill the purpose of the study and thereby create a relevant, theoretical contribution to the research.   Conclusion: Company X's management control does not capture decision-relevant information and thus problems are created within the organization. They ought to change their management control in accordance to the recommendations. Furthermore, the critical features that need to be focused on are: supportive, signaling, diagnosing, securing, information spreading and motivation creator.

Abstract:
Roll compaction is a continuous process commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry for dry granulation of moisture and heat sensitive powder blends. It is intended to increase bulk density and improve flowability. Roll compaction is a complex process that depends on many factors, such as feed powder properties, processing conditions and system layout. Some of the variability in the process remains unexplained. Accordingly, modeling tools are needed to understand the properties and the interrelations between raw materials, process parameters and the quality of the product. It is important to look at the whole manufacturing chain from raw materials to tablet properties. The main objective of this thesis was to investigate the impact of raw materials, process parameters and system design variations on the quality of intermediate and final roll compaction products, as well as their interrelations. In order to do so, we have conducted a series of systematic experimental studies and utilized chemometric tools, such as design of experiments, latent variable models (i.e. PCA, OPLS and O2PLS) as well as mechanistic models based on the rolling theory of granular solids developed by Johanson (1965). More specifically, we have developed a modeling approach to elucidate the influence of different brittle filler qualities of mannitol and dicalcium phosphate and their physical properties (i.e. flowability, particle size and compactability) on intermediate and final product quality. This approach allows the possibility of introducing new fillers without additional experiments, provided that they are within the previously mapped design space. Additionally, this approach is generic and could be extended beyond fillers. Furthermore, in contrast to many other materials, the results revealed that some qualities of the investigated fillers demonstrated improved compactability following roll compaction. In one study, we identified the design space for a roll compaction process using a risk-based approach. The influence of process parameters (i.e. roll force, roll speed, roll gap and milling screen size) on different ribbon, granule and tablet properties was evaluated. In another study, we demonstrated the significant added value of the combination of near-infrared chemical imaging, texture analysis and multivariate methods in the quality assessment of the intermediate and final roll compaction products. Finally, we have also studied the roll compaction of an intermediate drug load formulation at different scales and using roll compactors with different feed screw mechanisms (i.e. horizontal and vertical). The horizontal feed screw roll compactor was also equipped with an instrumented roll technology allowing the measurement of normal stress on ribbon. Ribbon porosity was primarily found to be a function of normal stress, exhibiting a quadratic relationship. A similar quadratic relationship was also observed between roll force and ribbon porosity of the vertically fed roll compactor. A combination of design of experiments, latent variable and mechanistic models led to a better understanding of the critical process parameters and showed that scale up/transfer between equipment is feasible.

Abstract:
A non-contact angular measurement system for Pitch Static Attitude (PSA) and Roll Static Attitude (RSA) of hard disk drive sliders is designed and built. Real-time sampling at over 15 KHz is achieved with accuracy of +/- 0.05 degrees over a range of approximately 2-3 degrees. Measuring the PSA and RSA is critical for hard drive manufacturers to control and improve the quality and reliability of hard drives. Although the hard drive industry is able to measure the PSA and RSA at the subassembly level at this time, there is no system available that is able to measure PSA/RSA at the final assembly level. This project has successfully demonstrated a methodology that the PSA/RSA can be reliably measured in-situ using a laser and position sensitive detector (PSD) technology. A prototype of the measurement system has been built using simple and inexpensive equipment. This device will allow a continuous measurement between the parked position on the ramp and the loading position just off of the disk surface. The measured data can be used to verify manufacturing processes and reliability data.

Abstract:

The purpose with this research was to find out what advantages and/ or disadvantages there might be as playing the role as a lecture. In everyday life we give eachother different roles. During the last years the lecture has become a current and outstanding role. This has made me more curious about the lectures´ thoughts about there role. In this work I have tried to explore about the lecture playing the role. I have questioned if the lecture really is playing a role and if so what the effects of that would be. To analyse my material I have used roletheory. The method I have used is depth interviews. My inteviewgroup contains of 6 persons, 3 men and 3 women. They all have got different educations. The result of my research shows that the lectures are playing roles and there are more advantages than disadvantages. The advantages by playing a role could be for instance to strengthen the message. It is easier to create dramatic and excitement and getting the audience listen to you when you are playing a role as a lecture.

The disadvantages by playing a role tend to be that the lecture might loose his or her credibility. Playing a role as a lecture could also mislead the lecture and make him or her powerless.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka och kartlägga attityder gentemot religionsundervisningen på gymnasiet och drama som undervisningsmetod, samt att föreslå en med drama integrerad religionsundervisning, där drama är metoden, och religion står för innehållet. Detta för att utforska utförbarheten av en sådan undervisning, där drama är metoden för religionsundervisningen på gymnasiet. Jag har med hjälp av intervjuer och litteratur undersökt vilka dramametoder som går att använda, samt vilka effekter dessa kan tänkas ha för undervisningen. Sedan har jag gett förslag på en serie konkreta religionsundervisningsexempel, vilka jag stödjer mot de didaktiska hjälpmedlen vad, hur och varför. Jag använder mig av Mia Marie Sternudds doktorsavhandling, Dramapedagogik som demokratisk fostran?, för att kategorisera mina lektionsförslag efter undervisningssyfte. För att kartlägga attityder gentemot religionsundervisningen på gymnasiet och drama som metod i undervisningen, har jag genomfört en enkätundersökning, där 100 personer, med erfarenhet av svensk gymnasial religionsundervisning, deltar. Jag har i min enkätundersökning kommit fram till, att drygt 2/3 av de 100 deltagande ställer sig positiva till drama som undervisningsmetod, samt att hela 62 procent känner att religionsundervisningen på gymnasiet är i behov av en förändring. Många ansåg att det är lärarens entusiasm som avgör om undervisningen är bra, och andra ser innehållet som det främsta viktiga. Flera önskade sig mer diskussioner och aktivitet på lektionerna. Mina undervisningsförslag som jag arbetat fram visar hur drama kan användas som metod, utan att förlora ett innehållsmässigt djup i undervisningen, och att möjligheterna till en integrerad undervisning är stor. Jag anser att jag i mina förslag, exemplifierat hur drama kan användas som undervisningsmetod i religionskunskap på gymnasiet, där undervisningen möter läro- och kursplanernas mål, samt de kursplansperspektiv som regeringen satt upp.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine attitudes towards the teaching of religion and drama as the teaching method, and to propose an integrated form of education where drama is used as a method when teaching religion. This is performed in an attempt to explore the possibility of using such a method of teaching. By studying existing literature as well as performing interviews I have examined possible drama methods and their conceivable effects on learning, and proposed classroom cases on how to apply drama. These cases are relying on what, how and why; what shall be taught, how it shall be taught, and why I have chosen this specific method. The cases are categorized in line with Mia Marie Sternudd's Ph. D Thesis, Educational Drama as a mean of fostering democratic values?, where she defines four perspectives of educational drama. A survey of one hundred individuals with experience from Swedish religious education was performed in order to examine the attitudes towards the teaching of religion. In the course of my investigation i have reached the conclusion that about two thirds of the one hundred participants think positively of the idea to use drama as a teaching method. Also, sixty two percent consider the religious education to be in need of improvement. Many think that the enthusiasm of the teacher is the deciding factor in whether the education is good, and others view the contents as the most important. Several want more discussions and activity during class. My classroom cases show how drama as a method can be used, without loosing any depth in the contents, and that the potential to use drama as a method in religious education is considerable. And I do feel that my cases show how drama may be used in teaching while maintaining the standards set by the national curriculum.

Abstract:
The essay’s language is swedish.Our study is about motivation and dissatisfaction with employees and managers. The work ismore about what motivates people in the workplace and what makes them unhappy. Themotivation can be achieved through two types of rewards, monetary and non-monetaryrewards. Where monetary reward involves performance pay or a bonus and non-monetarymeans travel, equipment and other benefits. This is the most common form of reward systemwhose purpose is to create a high motivation to ensure the effectiveness of the business ororganization. The essay is based on Herzberg’s two-factor theory, which consists ofmotivation and hygiene factors. The problem that remains today is the companies are notready to raise the hygiene factors if they consider those that exist are already reasonable. Thismay mean that employees don’t feel motivated enough, which in turn leads to adissatisfaction at the workplace. Companies use reward system to recruit, motivate and retaincompetent employees to their organizations.In this paper, the question was: How the factors and rewards affect employees and managers,and which factors motivate and create displeasure at the workplace?Our purpose was to highlight the views of managers and employees what is important to themwhen it comes to motivation and hygiene factors and rewards. The aim is to have a betterinsight into the reward system’s functionality in the organization, how different rewards andfactors satisfy the employees.We have choser open unstructured interviews to work with because we want to create adeeper discussion about how important reward systems are for the respondents. Weinterviewed seven respondents, of which four are managers and three employees.In our study, we have come to the conclusion that managers and employees are satisfied withtheir monetary and non-monetary rewards and that they experience some dissatisfaction at theworkplace. The study also showed that factors like rarely getting feedback, bad workingconditions, work under pressure, bad relationships between colleagues and a lot ofresponsibility can in the future lead to employees getting tired of the job and that they canthen apply for work at new companies that have better reward systems.
Vår studie handlar om motivation och missnöje hos anställda samt chefer. Arbetet handlar merspecifikt om vad som motiverar människor på arbetsplatsen samt vad som gör dem missnöjda.Motivationen kan uppnås genom två typer av belöningar, monetära samt icke-monetärabelöningar. Där monetär belöning innebär prestationslön eller bonus och icke-monetär innebärresor, utrustning och andra förmåner. Detta är den vanligaste formen av belöningssystem varssyfte är att skapa en hög motivation för att säkra effektiviteten hos företagen ellerorganisationen. Uppsatsen utgår mycket från Herzbergs tvåfaktorteori, vilket består avmotivations- och hygienfaktorer. Problemet som kvarstår idag är företagen inte är redo atthöja hygienfaktorerna om de anser de som finns redan är rimliga. Detta kan medföra att deanställda inte känner sig tillräckligt motiverade vilket i sin tur leder till ett missnöje påarbetsplatsen. Företag använder sig av belöningssystem för att rekrytera, motivera och behållakompetenta medarbetare till sina organisationer.I arbetet var frågeställningen: Hur påverkar faktorerna och belöningar de anställda ochcheferna samt vilka faktorer är det som motiverar respektive skapar missnöje påarbetsplatsen?Vårt syfte var att lyfta fram chefers och anställdas synpunkter på vad som är viktigt för demnär dem när det gäller motivations- och hygienfaktorerna och belöningar. Syftet är att habättre inblick i belöningssystemets funktionalitet i organisationen, hur olika belöningar ochfaktorer tillfredsställer medarbetarna.Vi har valt att arbeta med öppna ostrukturerade intervjuer eftersom vi vill skapa en djuparediskussion kring hur viktiga belöningssystem är för respondenterna. Vi använde oss utav sjustycken respondenter varav fyra chefer och tre anställda.I vår studie har vi kommit fram till att chefer och anställda är nöjda med deras monetära ochicke-monetära belöningar och att de upplever lite missnöje på arbetsplatsen. Studien visadeockså att sällan få återkoppling, sämre arbetsförhållande, arbeta under tryck, dålig relationmellan kollegor och mycket ansvar kan i framtiden leda till att anställda tröttnar på jobbet ochatt de då kan söka sig till nya företag som har bättre belöningssystem.

Abstract:
The perspective of inclusion within the preschool and school system implies that children of the same age should be able to be taught together and participate in the same context despite their qualifications. Differences must be looked upon as a resource and the teaching process should be adapted to suit children’s needs rather than the children having to adapt to the environment. However, what does the inclusion of children with special needs actually look like within the preschool and school system? The aim of this study was to investigate which role the special educators play in the inclusion process. Also, to find out possible similarities and differences between their work in preschool compared to the lower level of compulsory school. Two principals and seven pedagogues from different educational fields, all working within the same school area, were interviewed. The results showed that the work of the special educators differed between the two educational systems. The work within the school system was more topic-oriented whereas the work within the preschool system emphasized on communication and interaction. There were however more similarities than differences. For example the way the special educators mapped the different needs of the children and how they cooperated with other pedagogues. All pedagogues and the principals were convinced that the special educators played an important role in encouraging inclusion.

Abstract:
R2R embedding of conductive sintered grids: Within the organic light emitting diode(OLED) and organic photovoltaic(OPV) applications, to improve the efficiency of these devices, high conductive metal grids are required to replace tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) as an anode. High conductive metal grid, can be obtained by screen prinitng of the metal shunt lines which are several microns thick. In order to avoid the risk of electrical shorts, the height of the metal shunt lines should be minimized as much as possible, so that other active layers can be coated above it. But, the surface topology of the metal shunt lines greatly influences the active layers coated above it. New concept has been developed to address the problem of surface topology at Holst Centre. New concept developed constitutes of embedding of the screen printed silver conductive sintered grids in the ultra violet (UV) sensitive transparent resist, which is cured on the polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) foil using the roll-to-roll (R2R) process. By doing so, we obtain the metal shunt lines in combination with the resist having more or less a flat surface profile. Characterization methods namely scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dektak profilometry, atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical interferometry and confocal microscopy measurements were performed on the samples. Surface profile measurements were performed on the screen printed silver shunt lines and also on the embedded shunt lines. Height of the screen printed silver tracks was approximately 1.2 m, and of the embedded shunt lines was approximately 130 nm, which means that the percentage of the embedding of shunt lines is approximately 93%. R2R embedded shunt lines were integrated successfully into an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device.

Abstract:
Live shopping is a relatively new phenomenon that combines live streaming with online shopping. Past research has explored live shopping as a functional marketing tool, used to increase sales and purchase intention. The purpose of this study was to explore consumers’ perspectives on live shopping as an experience, with the experience economy theory as a lens. Furthermore, this study utilized the four realms of an experience and five principles of design to analyze and explain the collected data. The empirical data was gathered through semi-structured interviews with respondents aged 18-27. The findings showed that consumers perceive the live shopping experience as mostly educational in conjunction with aspects of entertainment. Escapist and esthetic aspects are considered complementary and can strengthen the experience. This study contributes to an increased understanding of the live shopping experience from consumers’ perspectives. In addition, the theory of experience economy has not been previously applied to live shopping. In turn, this study has contributed to an increased use of experience economy theory in areas other than tourism and hospitality.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to study the functions that music have in relation to the formation of identity, and research how this fits into the music subject in the school environment in Sweden. My questions were; (1) what role does music has in the formation of identity? (2) how does gender stereotyped musical identities take form? (3) what is the problems or risks with music education in relation to formation of identity? (4) how does the curriculum for the Swedish school relate to the functions that music have in relation to the formation of identity? I have done an analysis on three writers who focuses on theories about music in relation to the development of identity, to give perspective to the individual’s music reality. The first one is the Swedish musicology professor Börje Stålhammar, the second one is the Norwegian music therapist and professor Even Ruud, and the third one is the Brittish music senior master Nicola Dibben. I have compare their thoughts and found a great unanimity in many aspects. I have also related their thoughts to the curriculum for the Swedish school, and found support on many points, but not all.

The Swedish curriculum calls the school a social and cultural place that both have a possibility and responsibility to strengthen the identity among the pupils. According to my writers the music has escapist, emotional and existential roles. It works as community construction and creation of a group belonging. Ruud and Dibben suggest that music also can function as a musical self biography, by recollecting and integrate life events. Dibben suggests that musical preferences are personal, and an important way to define ourselves and others. According to Dibben, gender identity is constructed through the musical activities we participate in, through the musical preferences we have and through the beliefs about what constitutes gender-appropriate musical behaviour. According to the curriculum, the school has a responsibility to work against traditional sexual stereotypes, and Ruud and Dibben suggest that music is an area in which gender roles can be explored and assumptions challenged. Stålhammar suggests that the musical identities can be contrasted to the music education in school, and create a sense of “cultural dissonance”, where the subject is viewed as unreal and unfamiliar in comparison to own experiences. Ruud is talking about the aspects of the experience of a “false self”. If children and youths are using music as a means of defining themselves and forming group identities, this means that inevitably some will form negative musical identities whilst others will form more positive musical identities. The curriculum for the music subject does not say anything about the negative identities that are the reality of the music teacher.

Abstract:
Roll reduction of ships at slow or zero speeds still remains a challenge in marine engineering. This thesis revisits tank stabilization systems, and starts with a critical review of their development since 1883 to the present. It goes on to investigate the application of modem control techniques, power consumption, and different tank configuration to monohulls and trimarans. It is shown that during the development of tank stabilizing systems the weak link in most cases was the control system, the technology to implement them was not available. Only now with advanced control theory and high speed computing power can the potential of some of these systems be exploited. This thesis applies the current advanced technological and computational techniques to some older ideas that could not be practically realized before. It is shown that the lack of an effective control system of anti-roll tanks is due to the philosophy of trying to control the system with feedback control while a much more suitable approach for this particular application is feedforward control. The thesis develops two strategies (both feedforward) to control the pumps used in active tanks: 1) Auto regression is used to predict the incident wave motion. The predicted wave motion is used as the input to the tank/pump system. 2) Control of the actuating pumps of an active U-tank with an adaptive inverse controller using a filtered-x least mean square algorithm. Both the methods are shown to provide excellent roll stabilization in different sea conditions for monohull and trimaran vessels. Historically tank stabilization systems have only been fitted to monohulls. The application of tank stabilization systems is extended to multihulls, the performance of U-tanks and free flooding (or n-tanks) is compared. The n-tanks can be located in the low value volume of the side hulls with minimum impact on the box structure, thus providing good ship stabilization at low speed with low ship impact.

Rollen som de spelar anses inte vara lika väsentlig i en artists karriär till följd av digitaliseringen.       Syftet med denna studie är att skapa förståelse för hur skivbolagens roll ser ut i en digitaliserad och tjänst-dominerad musikbransch. För att kunna besvara syftet har tre semistrukturerade intervjuer utförts, varav en består av två respondenter. Intervjuerna genomfördes med skivbolagen Universal Music, Amuse och ett independent bolag i Stockholm.      Studiens empiri visar att aktiviteterna som skivbolag utför är anpassat utefter digitala medier, samt att alla respondenter menar att även om artister i dagsläget kan göra allting själva, är det lättare att lyckas med hjälp av ett skivbolag.      Slutsatserna som nåtts är att skivbolagens roll ser ut på det viset att de är artisternas partner, som innebär att de är med dem, och inte för dem. Rollen skivbolagen har i en digitaliserad och tjänst-dominerad musikbransch innebär att de erbjuder artisterna kunskap, kontakter och kapital. Skivbolagens roll har försvagats inom de traditionella aktiviteterna marknadsföring och distribution, och anses istället finnas som stöd och komplement inom dessa aktiviteter. Skivbolagens roll har istället blivit viktigare när det gäller att upptäcka, bygga samt driva artisternas karriärer.
With the digital revolution, the scope of record labels’ activities have been reduced. Today, individuals can do a lot on their own, that record labels have traditionally done for their artists. The role they played is not considered as important in the career of an artist today, due to digitization.      The aim of this essay is to examine and create insight on how record labels’ role looks like in a digitalized and serice-dominated music industry. To do this, three interviews have been carried out, whereof one interview included two respondents. The interviews were held with the record labels Universal Music, Amuse and an independent label in Stockholm.      The results show that the activities that record labels perform are adjusted according to digital media. The results also show that all of the respondents claim that even though artists today can do everything on their own, it is easier to succeed with the help of a record label.      The conclusion is that the record labels’ role is that they are partners with their artists, which means that they are with them, and not for them. The role record labels have in a digitalized and service-dominated music industry is that they offer knowledge, connections and capital to their artists. The record labels’ role has been weakened within the traditional activities marketing and distribution. Instead, they are regarded as existing as a support and complement within these activities. The record labels’ role has therefore become more important in finding, building and operating artists’ careers.

Abstract:
Studien är främst till för att bringa klarhet i hur en butik bör arbeta med visuell marknadsföring för att nå konsumenten och skapa en positiv reaktion hos denne. Vi har dessutom undersökt vikten av relationen till kunden, och hur företaget arbetar med det genom relationsmarknadsföring. Vi har fått fram vårt resultat genom marknadsundersökningar och observationer inne i och i anslutning till en butik, samt genom en intervju med den ansvarige för butikskommunikationen i samma butik. Till vår hjälp har vi arbetat med Peak Performens Borås, det är kring denna butik hela studien kretsar.Den personliga intervjun med den person som är ansvarig för butikskommunikationen på Peak Performens Borås gav oss information om problem och utmaningar ur deras synvinkel. Materialet gav oss även bra bakgrundsinformation att jämföra resultaten från marknadsundersökningarna och observationerna med. De två marknadsundersökningar vi genomförde innehöll frågor relaterade till varuexponeringen baserat på reaktioner och respons från konsumenterna i och utanför butiken. Båda undersökningarna redovisas genom diagram under kapitel 4, där det kan utläsas att konsumentens spontana reaktion på både exponeringen inne i och utanför butiken är något sval. Responsen ligger till stor del till grund för senare diskussion samt förslag till framtida förbättringar. De två observationerna av konsumentbeteende ägde den ene rum inne i, och den andra utanför butiken. Resultatet från inne i butiken redovisas med planritning under kapitel 4, där en viktig del är att se var kunden stannat till för att titta närmare på något. Vi separerade män från kvinnor för att se skillnaderna mellan deras rörelsemönster. I observationen kunde vi bland annat utläsa att männens rörelseschema höll ett bättre flöde samt att junioravdelningens placering är något generös. Den andra observationen genomfördes utanför butiken, och visar på hur mycket skyltfönstrets innehåll påverkar beslutsfattandet över valet att besöka en butik samt vad som drog till sig uppmärksamhet i skyltningen. Genom vår studie kom vi fram till att den visuella marknadsföringen har en stor påverkan på konsumenten, men även andra faktorer som ex. ljud och trängsel har stor påverkan. För att stå ut från mängden och nå kunderna genom bruset (konkurrenters och allmänhetens påverkan) måste företaget ha en bra plan för marknadsföringen. Mindre butiker bör speciellt använda sig av kundklubbar och sociala medier för att synas mer samt skapa en bra relation till sina kunder. The study is mainly to clarify how a store should work with visual merchandising to reach consumers and create a positive reaction from them. We have also investigated the importance of the relationship with the customer, and how the company works with it through relationship marketing. We have presented our results through a market research, observations and through an interview with the head of the visual merchandising at the same store. To our help we had the Peak Performens Store in Borås, it's in this store the study has been taken place.The personal interview with the person responsible for in-store communication at Peak Performens Borås gave us information about problems and challenges from their perspective. The material also gave us good background information to compare the results of market research and observations with.The two market research we conducted included questions related to product presentation, based on reactions and feedback from consumers in and outside the store. Both studies are reported by diagrams in Chapter 4, where you can see that the consumer's immediate reaction on exposure both inside and outside the store is a bit neutral. The response is largely the basis for later discussion and suggestions for future improvements for the store.The two observations of consumer behavior was one place inside, and the other one outside the store. Profit from the inside of the store is reported in a plan in Chapter 4, where an important part is to see where the customer stopped and look at something. We separated men from women to see the differences between their movements. In the observation we could see that the men's movements were in a better flow and that the junior division had a generous place in the store. The second observation was outside the store, and it shows how much the contents of the display windows affects decision-making about the choice to visit a store and what has attracted the attention from the display windows.Through our study we found that the visual merchandising has a major impact on the consumer, but also other factors, noise and crowding people has also a major impact. To stand out from the crowd and reach the customers through the noise (competitors and the public's influence) the company must have a good marketing plan. Small retailers should especially make use of clubs for the consumer and social networks to be more visible and create a good relationship with their customers.

Abstract:
The Swedish academic libraries have gone trough radical changes during the last decades. The development of information technology, the educational expansion and new pedagogical ways of learning within the higher educational system have changed the conditions, not only for the academic libraries, but also in many ways for the librarians. The aim of this Masters thesis is to examine how Swedish librarians experience their pedagogic role and task in the context of an academic library. The following four questions in this investigation were asked: How do the librarians experience the formal task that they have? How do the librarians experience the physical library environment? How do the librarians experience the co-operation with others involved in their work? How do the librarians experience their own pedagogic knowledge and competence in their daily practice? The study showed that these librarians believed the physical environment to be very important and is seen as a pedagogical tool in their daily work. The co-operations with others involved needed to become better, especially with the teachers. The librarians felt that their pedagogic role and task is becoming more important. They also feel a need for more pedagogic knowledge to handle the increasing demands from the students using the academic libraries.

Abstract:
Upplevelsen av förlossningen följer med kvinnan under hela av hennes liv. Forskning visar att stöd är en av de viktigaste faktorerna för uppnåendet av en positiv upplevelse för kvinnan. Det finns mycket forskning som stödjer detta, men väldigt lite forskat på hur stödet ser ut och hur barnmorskorna gör när de stödjer kvinnan. Detta ville forskarna undersöka i föreliggande studie. Syftet med studien är att beskriva barnmorskans stödjande roll i förlossningen, och hur det stödet ser ut.En fenomenologisk ansats med livsvärldsteoretisk grund användes. Intervjuer genomfördes på två förlossningsavdelningar i Västra Götalandsregionen med sex barnmorskor. Resultatet presenteras genom fem innebördsteman. De fem innebördsteman är, att bära fram, att skapa kontakt och tillit, att vara med kvinnan, att vara lyhörd och ödmjuk inför varje unik människa samt barnmorskans största roll. Resultatet av studien visar att barnmorskorna upplever att deras stödjande roll till kvinnan under förlossningen är mycket viktig, det var deras utan tvekan största roll som barnmorska. Exempel på stödet är att ge massage, stryka, klappa, vara närvarande, bra bemötande och andningsteknik. Vidare innebär stödet information om vad som händer, det normala förloppet samt god kommunikation. Att bära fram innebär att lotsa och lyfta upp kvinnan så att hon orkar genom förlossningen. Att vara ödmjuk inför varje unik människa innebär att stödet barnmorskorna förmedlade kunde se olika ut beroende på kvinnan de skulle vårda. Det handlar om att som barnmorska var lyhörd för vad kvinnan behöver.

Titel: Arenans förändrade roll – från Colosseum till Allianz ArenaFörfattare: Daniel Granqvist & Henrik JohanssonHandledare: Gun Normark & Bo CarlssonSyfte: Syftet med studien är att ge en fördjupad förståelse för ett helhetstänkande när det gäller utveckling av moderna idrottsarenor. Härvid används aspekterna kommun/samhälle, publik, evenemang och näringsliv för att belysa nybyggnationer av moderna fotbollsarenor. Studien bygger primärt på erfarenheter från tidigare arenabyggen i norra Europa och baserar sig på fem strategisk utvalda arenor.Frågeställningar: Vilka skillnader och likheter finns när det gäller utveckling av moderna fotbollsarenor? Vad har kommun/samhälle, publik, näringsliv och evenemang för betydelse för förståelsen av denna utveckling? Vilka kunskaper och erfarenheter kan vara viktiga vid framtida arenabygge?Metod: Uppsatsen är en jämförande fallstudie av fem strategisk utvalda arenor i norra Europa. Arenorna är Millennium Stadium (Cardiff), City of Manchester Stadium (Manchester), Parken (Köpenhamn), Bröndby Stadium (Köpenhamn) och Allianz Arena (München). Dessa arenor har studerats utifrån fyra perspektiv som valts utifrån inriktningen på vår utbildning, Sport Management. De fyra perspektiven som studerats är kommun/samhälle, publik, evenemang och näringsliv. Studien bygger på information som vi funnit i litteratur och på Internet.Slutsatser: Helhetslösningar är det viktigaste i aspekten kommun/samhälle. Området runt arenan är väl så viktigt. Att skapa en helhet runt arenan är av vikt med bra kommunikationer, andra idrottsfaciliteter, ordentlig skyltning, bostäder och affärer. Kommun/samhälle bör också förstå sin viktiga roll i skapandet av ett arenaområde med god service.Att skapa en arena för alla människor är det viktigaste i aspekten publik. Alla besökare ska kunna finna sektioner och platser som passar utifrån kön, ålder, eventuella handikapp och ekonomiska förutsättningar. God och snabb service, många valmöjligheter, renlighet och hög komfort är nyckelorden.Utifrån evenemangsaspekten är flexibla arenor det viktigaste. Detta för att klara av så många olika evenemang som möjligt och på så sätt skapa bättre ekonomiska förutsättningar för arenan. Utifrån vilka evenemang arenan ska klara av, ska designen på bestämmas.Att skapa en arena där näringslivet känner att ingenting är omöjligt är viktigt. Detta för att näringslivet ska kunna utnyttja arenan mer än vid själva evenemangen. Helhetstänkande är viktigt i denna aspekt så inget företag känner att de inte har råd att använda arenan. Alla företag ska kunna sponsra eller använda arenan oavsett storlek eller ekonomi.Nyckelord: Arenor, kommun/samhälle, publik, näringsliv, evenemang
The point of this study is to give a deeper understanding about development of modern stadiums in whole. Within this we look at the aspects from community/sociaty, spectators, business world and events to bring out newly built modern footballstadiums. The study is priliminary built on experience from older stadiums in northern Europe and is based on five strategically choosen stadiums.The choosen stadiums are Millennium Stadium (Cardiff), City of Manchester Stadium (Manchester), Parken (Copenhagen), Bröndby Stadium (Copenhagen) and Allianze Arena (Munich).The solution in whole is the most important in aspect to community/sociaty. Surrounding ground around the stadium is as important as the stadium itself. Community/sociaty should also understand its important roll in development of the stadium and surroundings with good service.To make a stadium for all people is the most important in aspect of the spectators. All visitors should be able to find sections and seats that is suitable according to sex, age, handicap and economy.In aspect of different events, flexible stadiums is important. This is to be able to accommodate all sorts of events. Depending on what event the stadium is going to host the design is made.To make a stadium were business world fells nothing is impossible is important. This is so business world can use the stadium more than on one special event. All businesses should be able to sponsor or use the stadium regardless of size or economy.

Abstract:
För cirka ett år sedan satt vi på samma plats som idag. Vid den tidpunkten skrev vi vår b-uppsats, Irrationella yrkesval, finns det? En uppsats om när studie- och yrkesvägledare anser att en sökande väljer ett irrationellt yrkesval. Den uppsatsen inspirerade oss till det arbete du läser nu. Vi ville undersöka fler situationer där vägledarens förhållningssätt inte är självklara. Vårt arbete syftar därför att undersöka hur studie- och yrkesvägledare på gymnasieskolan själva upplever sitt bemötande av elever som utfört kriminella handlingar. Första delen i arbetet behandlar tidigare forskning som berör ungdomskriminalitet. Bemötandet av kriminella ungdomar från polis, skola och ur ett vägledaretiskt perspektiv. Vi ser även närmare på vilka grupper i samhället som ligger i riskzonen för att begå kriminella handlingar och hur kriminella ungdomars framtid ser ut. Teorierna som används för att förklara det resultat som framkom i arbetet består av Foucaults teori om makt, Goffmans teori om stigmatisering och Hägg & Kuoppas samtalsmodell för studie- och yrkesvägledare. Studien genomfördes genom sex kvalitativa intervjuer med studie- och yrkesvägledare som arbetar i gymnasieskolan. Resultatet presenteras i form av en analys. I analysen av resultatet framträder flera trådar som påvisar paradoxer som kan finnas i ett vägledningssamtal med en elev som begått kriminella handlingar. Vi har försökt att åskådliggöra dessa genom att lyfta upp problemen till ytan och i visa fall föreslagit hur vi anser vägledarna kan agera istället.
Almost a year ago we sat in the same location as today. At that time we wrote our b- essay, Irrationella yrkesval, finns dem? An essay that is based on interviews with guidance counselors and what they believe is irrational career decisions from their clients. The paper inspired us to write the essay you are reading now. We wanted to explore more situations where the counselor's approach is not obvious. Our work aims to investigate how guidance counselors in gymnasium perceive their treatment by the criminal students. The first part of the work deals with previous research in youth crime. Treatment of criminal youth from police, school and from a guidance counselor’s perspective. We also observe which groups in society who are at a larger risk for committing criminal acts and the criminal youth's future looks like. The theories used to explain the results that emerged from the work consists of Foucault's theory of power, Goffman's theory of stigma and Hägg & Kuoppas guidance model for guidance counselors. The study was conducted by six qualitative interviews with guidance counselors who work in gymnasiums. The results are presented in the form of an analysis. The analysis of the results appears more threads showing paradoxes that might be in a guidance meeting with a student, who committed criminal acts. We have tried to illustrate this by lifting the problem to the surface and in some cases suggested how we believe counselors can act instead.

Construction site follow-up is a significant work that includes a variety of technology areas such as road, electricity, constructions. This includes follow-up of contract work, quality control, final documentation, schedule, and payment. Construction site follow-up has a task of processing documents that are part of the project from design to submission of results. The consultant has noticed that the expectations of what a construction site follow-up does can vary from project manager to project manager. This report will therefore produce different views from different project managers regarding the role of the construction site follow-up. The question for this study is about” what possibilities does a construction site follow-up have in influencing the quality and work environment in the planning phase and in the finished product?”. The method choice used are qualitative method, interviews have been taken place with various project managers and quality specialists. This study resulted in the construction site follow-up having the opportunity to influence the quality and working environment at an early stage. The fact that an extended mandate has not been allocated is partly because the project manager is already responsible for decisions regarding the project.
Byggplatsuppföljning är ett betydande arbete som innehåller en mängd olika teknikområden såsomväg, el, vattenkonstruktioner. En byggplatsuppföljare gör en uppföljning av entreprenadarbete,kvalitetskontroll, slutdokumentation samt en uppföljning av tidplan och betalplan.Byggplatsuppföljare har även en uppgift att behandla viktiga handlingar som ingår i arbetet frånprojektering till överlämning av resultat för förvaltning.I dagsläget upplever konsulten att förväntningarna på vad en byggplatsuppföljare gör kan variera frånprojektledare till projektledare beroende var man befinner sig i Sverige. Rapporten kommer därför tafram olika synpunkter från olika projektledare från olika regioner.Studiens frågeställningar kommer att handla om ”hur byggplatsuppföljarens möjligheter ser ut attpåverka kvaliteten och arbetsmiljö i den färdiga produkten?”.Metodvalen som kommer att användas i denna rapport är en kvalitativ metod där intervjuer kommeratt ske löpande med olika projektledare.Denna studie resulterade i att byggplatsuppföljaren har möjlighet till att påverka/styra kvaliteten ocharbetsmiljön i ett tidigt skede. Att utökat mandat inte har tilldelats till byggplatsuppföljaren är dels föratt projektledaren ansvarar redan för alla beslut gällande tid, kostnad och innehåll av projektet, ochdärför finns det en begränsning på hur stor mandat en BPU ska tilldelas.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur gymnasieelever uppfattar skolans demokratiska fostrande roll samt hur den lokala skolan har lyckats i sin roll som demokratiska fostrare. För att svara på syftet har vi ställt följande frågeställningar: Hur medvetna är eleverna egentligen om skolans demokratiska fostrande roll? Vilken typ av regler anser eleverna vara de viktigaste? Stämmer de demokratiska mål som presenteras i den undersökta skolans arbetsplan och skolplan väl överens med de mål som finns i läroplanen Lpf 94 och skollagen?Det använda källmaterialet består av enkätundersökningar gjorda med elever som går årskurs 3 på gymnasiet samt även arbetsplan och skolplan från den undersökta skolan. Resultaten visar på att eleverna är medvetna om skolans demokratiska fostrande roll i de flesta aspekterna. Däremot visar undersökningen på att det praktiska arbetet kring skolans demokratiska fostran är bristfällig. Enligt resultaten är det regler som rör moraliska värderingar viktigast i skolan. Undersökningen visar även på att de demokratiska mål som presenteras i den undersökta skolans arbetsplan samt skolplan stämmer väl överens med de mål som finns i Lpf 94 samt skollagen. Generellt kan man säga att eleverna uppfattar skolans demokratiska fostrande roll positivt. Den undersökta skolan lyckas med att förmedla de demokratiska idéerna till eleverna men inte ge dem de rätta verktygen för att uppnå målen.

Abstract:
With this empirical essay I want to research how and why pedagogues use music in their preschool activities. Music is important to me and in relation to the new educational plan I have cautions about that the esthetic subjects may be less prioritized than before. The purpose with my study is to find out preschool pedagogues perspective in learning and evolving children’s educational matters through music. I base my literature theories in this study on Vygotskij and Fröbels theoretical perspectives. I chose to do a qualitative examination to be able to go deeper into my research, I also chose to interview four pedagogues and thereafter observe music activities they held. The observations are used as support for the interviews that I have done. This study shows that the pedagogues use music for more than just singing songs and rhyming. Music means joy, learning and fellowship. They also see music as a tool for the children’s oral and mathematical evolution. A conclusion based on this is that further learning is important for music’s influence in preschool.

Abstract:
Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka hur den svenska karriärstegsreformen har kommit att gestalta sig i praktiken vad gäller implementeringen av förstelärare i grundskolan. Hur har förstelärarollen kommit att formas, och vilka faktorer har påverkat hur det har blivit? Den så kallade karriärstegsreformen infördes 2014 genom att statsbidrag infördes för huvudmän för att inrätta ett nytt karriärsteg, försteläraren. Genom att ta utgångspunkt i reformens syften, så som de beskrivs i de statliga styrdokumenten, och i forskning kring skolutveckling, ledarskap i skolan, implementering av reformer och lärares professionalism, har en enkätundersökning genomförts bland förstelärare och rektorer i fyra kommuner. Som verktyg för analys har fyra möjliga sätt att förstå förstelärarollen använts utifrån Thelin (2015, 2016): utvecklare, utbildare och utvecklingsledare, beroende på vem står i centrum för utvecklingen och lärandet samt försteläraren som föredöme. Studiens resultat visar att samtliga fyra inriktningar på förstelärarollen går att återfinna i praktiken. Förekomsten av ett formellt, kommunicerat uppdrag och om tid har avsatts inom tjänsten för försteläraruppdraget påverkar hur förstelärarens roll formas. När tid och uppdrag har getts, är utvecklingsledarrollen vanlig och försteläraren arbetar med, och ges kompetensutveckling för, att leda kollegialt lärande i linje med de faktorer som enligt skolutvecklingsforskningen bygger upp ett hållbart utvecklingsarbete. Reformens syfte kan utläsas som karriärutveckling eller skolutveckling, och även rollerna utvecklare, och föredöme syns i studiens material. Dessa roller bidrar mer begränsat till utveckling av skolan, i fokus står de egna eleverna och för rollen föredöme är utnämningen till förstelärare i första hand en bekräftelse på utveckling som redan har skett. Studien bidrar med kunskap som kan öka medvetenheten kring hur uppdrag, och organisatoriska faktorer påverkar vilken effekt förstelärares arbete får för skolutveckling. Reformen infördes för bara några år sedan. Kunskap om hur förstelärarrollen i praktiken har kommit att formas, och vilka faktorer som påverkar det, bidrar till att öka möjligheten till medvetna val som kan gynna skolans utveckling.
The swedish career services for teachers reform was introduced in 2014. Some years later the “first teacher” has become a common role in schools. The aim for this reform was to rise educational results in swedish schools, to make the teacher as a profession more attractive and to start a process that would lead to more professional teachers. The impact from an advanced skilled teacher has been focused in Sweden, as in other countries in the OECD.  At the same time, the swedish schools have at tradition of a flat organisation, that this new career service has come to challenge. The essay aims at examining how the Swedish career reform has come to light in practice regarding the implementation of teachers in compulsary school. By taking aim of the reform, as described in the state governing documents, and research on school improvement, curriculum theory, educational leadership and teachers' professionalism, a survey has been created and answered by principals and “first teachers” in four different communalities. The study result shows that the ”first teacher”  work in different roles, and that factors like task, time and education will affect what kind of role that will be enacted. Building a sustainable educational leadership and creating a culture of collaborative learning will be depending on how this carreer teacher service reform will be implemented. The study contributes with knowledge that can raise awareness about how assignments, and organizational factors affect the effect of  “first teachers” work for school development. The reform was introduced a few years ago, and by studying how it has so far been set against the different perspectives on school development, the choices can be made that lead to the desired result.

Ordet musikproducent finns inte i den svenska akademins ordbok, vilket tyder på att en musikproducents roll inte heller finns fastställt någonstans i akademin. Detta är grunden till ämnet i detta examensarbete, just om att definiera en musikproducents roll, att dokumentera en sådan roll som är vitt spridd åt många olika håll inom en musikproduktion. Syftet med arbetet var att finna tydliga roller inom rollen som musikproducent och att också få en förståelse om vilka bakgrunder som kan leda till att bli en sådan. De metoder som använts för att fullfölja detta arbete var dels två intervjuer med två erfarna musikproducenter i närområdet av Gävle, som tydligt gav en bild av deras uppfattning om musikproducenters roll, tack vare deras år av erfarenhet inom ämnet. Det användes också litteratur från Richard James Burgess, Andrew Blake med flera, inom ämnet musikproduktion. Detta resulterade i att en slutsats drogs om att musikproducentens roll inte är fast vid en konstant arbetsuppgift utan att den rollen är flexibel och är aldrig den andre musikproduktionen lik. ”The Role of The Music Producer: A Study About The Role of The Music Producer in a Music Production”

utevistelse? Jag har gjort en kvalitativ undersökning där fyra förskollärare har intervjuats och

observationer på två förskolor har gjorts. Resultatet visar att man som förskollärare ska vara

medforskare, inspiratörer, och aktiv med barnen. Det förekommer planerad utevistelse men i

olika utsträckning. Den fria leken och styrda aktiviteter tas upp som positiva.

Abstract:

Mitt arbete handlar om lärares och dramapedagogers uppfattning om sina roller när de arbetar med drama som metod och om likheter och skillnader i deras sätt att arbeta meddrama. För att få information om och kunna jämföra information intervjuade jag några lärare och dramapedagoger från olika klasser. Därefter gjorde jag observationer av samma personers praktik för att få inblick i deras praktiska arbete.

Resultatet visar att lärarna och dramapedagogerna hade olika syn på vad drama är men samtidigt hade de likadan syn på hur man ska vara som övningsledare. De menar att när man arbetar som övningsledare med de yngre barnen ska man hela tiden ha en överblick över gruppen samt vara bestämd för att barn lätt blir ofokuserade. Däremot menade en av dramapedagogerna att barnens kreativitet skulle komma från barnen medan övningarna var bara ett hjälpmedel att få barnens fantasier att bli konkreta.

När jag gjorde mina observationer kunde jag se lärares och dramapedagogers delaktighet i dramaövningarna. Oavsett om det var lärarna eller dramapedagogerna så deltog de i övningarna med barnen. De hade överblick över gruppen för att kunna se om det skulle uppstå händelser som kunde störa gruppsammanhållningen. Så fort det hände något störande moment försökte de så fort som möjligt att lösa problemet.
