Product development in the automotive industry is characterized by a high demand on short lead times and efficient use of resources. This is no different for Volvo Bus Corporation, the second largest manufacturer of buses and bus chassis in the world, whose global product development organization is under pressure to find new ways to meet an increased amount of projects along with requirements on
In this thesis, a novel method for characterizing Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines(PMSMs) based in the dynamic response of the analyzed motor is evaluated. The most significant motor characteristics -torque, flux and efficiency maps- are computed from the motor voltage, currents and rotor position data sampled during the experiment. This way of obtaining the characteristics of the motor is po
This project proposes an implementation plan that will contribute to increasing the implementation of solar energy in Sweden. The source of inspiration for this project has been the rapid expansion of the implementation of solar energy in Germany. The reason for this inspiration has been the fact that insolation in Germany is the same as in the most populated areas of Sweden: southern Sweden. Yet
This thesis describes how business can be improved using a number of rather new methods; Data Mining, Business Intelligence and Customer Relationship Management. The idea presented is that an organization, through data, owns a lot of information about their business and customers. In order to turn this information into knowledge, it needs to be interpreted. The knowledge acquired will improve the
The goal of this single-case study is to contribute to understanding of the Eyjafjallajökull volcanic ash crisis from the institutional perspective. The Eyjafjallajökull eruption in April 2010 and the subsequent volcanic ash crisis grounding the flights across Europe demonstrated certain procedural inadequacies in the international aviation regime. This prompted the two institutions responsible in
The Office du Niger is the most important rice production area in Mali. It plays an important role in ensuring food security for the country‟s rapidly growing population. In order for the Office du Niger rice sector to keep supplying consumers with sufficient amounts of rice, an efficient market channel (i.e. the chain through which the rice must pass from producer to final consumer) is needed. I
Freedom of assembly as one of the basic requirements of a democratic society is enshrined in various international human rights instruments. This right, due to its importance and necessity for a vibrant society, in itself has a direct link to the realization of other human rights; demonstration and assembly is a form of expression, which can be for the manifestation of other human rights. The wide
This paper consists of an analysis of two film adaptations, the documentary Lasermannen- dokumentären (Tamas/Dixelius,Sweden,2005) and the TV- series Lasermannen (Maricimain,Sweden,2005) based on the documentary novel Lasermannen - En berättelse om Sverige by Gellert Tamas. Its purpose is to find out in which ways the written text is translated into film and how these translations effect the repre
To decide what spare part item that should be kept in stock or not Alfa Laval, in the year of 2002, introduced a classification method based on picking frequency. Now it is time to make an overhaul of this method. Many different parameters are involved and Alfa Laval would like to have an evaluation of how their setup performs in comparison with other companies, universities and our own ideas. Pur
The production philosophy at Tetra Pak Japan is make-to-order. Although, in reality it is more make-to-stock due to the current pricing structure based on discounts for large volume orders. As a result, the inventory levels are high and the responsiveness towards customer demand is limited. Alongside, the marketplace is changing and the competition is increasing. This calls for a change in the sup
210Pb dateringsstudie på 3000-4000 meters djup gjord på sediment från Marokanska och Arabiska havet för att undersöka om djuphavssediment är en stabil miljö. Tanken med examensarbetet är att undersöka konsekvenserna för dumpning av radioaktivt avfall i havet. Vilka regler gäller och vilka problem kan uppstå. Är det säkert eller ej? Vilka dumpplatser finns det och vad har man dumpat där? Ett av målThe earth surface consists of 71% of water and 29% land. 97% of that water is contained in saline seas. More than 90 per cent of the worlds living biomass can be found in the oceans. The sea has always been a possible dumpingsite for waste produced by man. Radioactive waste is the one of the most dangerous waste of all. Since the beginning of nuclear power research dumpsites around the world has b
Economic sanctions are defined as the exercise of pressure by one state to bring about a change in political behaviour of another state. Traditional economic sanctions are directed at the entire population of the sanctioned country while targeted sanctions are directed at the State’s government and/or individuals.

The field of public diplomacy has become increasingly dependent on the general digitalization in society, and its use of social media platforms as a mean to spread their political message to the general public. Digitalization has made public diplomacy more attainable for the masses, but it has also given states a larger responsibility in which messages they want to convey to the public. This thesi
Since its first publishing in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has been read by millions, and it has become the subject of many scholarly studies. However, one of its most famous characters, Gollum, has only been marginally examined. The aim of this essay is to counteract precisely that and examine how Gollum exists within, and in his own way embodies, the theological and moral system of The Lord of th
Due to the widespread juvenile delinquency in Sweden, attention has been brought to the need for more intrusive penalties for young offenders. Therefore, the penalty of youth probation (Sw. ungdomsövervakning) was legislated in 2021, which aims to counteract recidivism and contribute to a favorable development of young offenders. Previous literature reveals that there is no agreement in the effect

Eftersom stater i hög grad har misslyckats med att ta den globala uppvärmningen seriöst, har istället privata individer och miljöorganisationer konfronterat dem som bidrar till den. Genom att föra de som släpper ut växthusgaser inför rätta hoppas kärandena kunna stoppa den nuvarande kursen mot förödande klimatförändring. Klimattvister kan rikta sig mot både regeringar och företag, men i just tvistWhere states have failed to take the threat of global warming seriously, private individuals and environmental organizations have confronted those contributing to it. By bringing the emitters to court, litigants all over the world hope to put an end to the current trajectory towards dangerous climate change. Within the field of climate litigation, both governments and corporations are targeted. Th
