The title of this bachelor thesis is: ”The turban - A study of the Oriental fashion and the turban´s process of deorientalizing”. The Orient has fascinated Westerners for a long time, especially within the fashion industry. Ever since the first voyages of discovery, there has been a constant exchange of arts and culture between East and West. Oriental fashion can be defined as a fashion that draws

Studies of decision-making have shown that attitudes can be influenced by choices. One way in which to study these types of attitude changes can be through the choice blindness paradigm. Choice blindness is the well documented finding that people may both fail to notice that the outcome of a choice does not correspond to what was intended, and at the same time construct coherent arguments in suppo

The aim of this research was to gain a more nuanced picture of sustainability in furniture retail by investigating how it is handled in a furniture retail chain. The chosen method was setting up a case study on MIO AB, the central organization of a Swedish franchise chain, where data was collected using interviews and observations. The theoretical framework focused on sustainability aspects in the

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur samproduktion av en omprofilering sker inom varumärkesforum på sociala medier.Uppsatsen grundar sig i en kvalitativ forskningsstil och använder sig av en netnografisk studie av fallföretaget Oatlys varumärkesforum på sociala medier i kombination med en semistrukturerad telefonintervju med Sara Hansson, ansvarig för sociala medier på fallföretaget Oatly.

Operators in DCS environments control and supervise the process with the help of Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). The operators are usually stationary (or at least semi-stationary) because the HMI is stationary. The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis is to explore the prospects of using mobile devices, primarily touchpads, in Distributed Control System (DCS) surroundings. This includes (but is not l

This bachelor thesis project was carried out at Schneider Electric in Helsingborg, where the objective was to use an old robot with three linear axes. The engines were replaced and control cabinets with their latest products were built together to work and to become a complete unit. The complete unit was mounted on a cage which will be used by Schneider Electric for marketing. The Project is based

The condition of the Swedish railway has been frequently discussed, mainly during recent years. Lack of maintenance and budgetary allocation are words that constantly arise. During the winter the topic is notably higher, especially because of the media that regularly reports about cancelled and delayed train departures. This thesis will plunge into the difficulties that the railway sector will fac

Utveckling av nya kemiska processanläggningar kräver en styrutrustning som kan delas upp i ett antal delkomponenter som ofta återkommer i samma tappning oberoende av vilka kemikalier eller delprocesser som helheten består av. Förutsättningarna finns därför att skapa en standarduppställning som kan användas generellt och i skilda sammanhang. Examensarbetet består i att vidareutveckla befintlig bas

The main purpose of this master thesis is to determine the factors that significantly influence the capital structure decisions in the global renewable energy sector during the period 2005-2013.This study is implemented through a quantitative approach, using a panel data model, in which leverage is the dependent variable, controlled by a set of firm-specific, industry-specific, tax-related and mac

In this thesis an RGB-D camera was used with the goal to perform dynamic path planning in an initially unknown environment. Depth data from an RGB-D camera together with a discretizising algorithm is continuously used for maintaining an obstacle map of the environment which within the path planning algorithm D* Lite [S. Koening, 2005] is performed on the flight. Experiments were conducted on two

Dagens miljöproblem måste lösas för att skona framtida generationer och miljön. Miljöcertifiering är en bit på vägen. Syftet med denna rapport är att redogöra för vad det innebär att miljöcertifiera en byggnad. Rapporten behandlar hur olika miljöcertifieringsmetoder fungerar och hur arbetsmetodiken för en certifiering ser ut. Eftersom det finns olika miljöcertifieringsmetoder är syftet också att gTitle: Environmental certification of buildings with Miljöbyggnad, Green Building, BREEAM and LEED - A review of the methods with comprehensive comparison Problem: Today's environmental problems must be solved in order to spare future generations and the environment. Environmental certification is a part of the solution. So what is the point with environmental certification and what reasons a

The curtain is a decorative object with at lot of additional functions. We wanted to work with the curtain and our goal was to make people see it with new eyes. We decided to try to raise the value of the curtain by giving the user an excuse to interact with it; through storage. The starting point of the project was a theme we call forgotten rooms and rejected items. To us this talks about how we

Den ekonomiska aspekten är starkt styrande i dagens samhälle. Detta innefattar även byggbranschen, där entreprenörer kan förlora eller vinna ett projekt utifrån deras kostnadskalkyl. Detta medför att materialvalen är starkt knutna till vad som är billigast. Studien startade med frågan med hur materialval hanteras, samt nischades till varför det inte byggs mer med tegel? Utifrån detta intervjuades

Vertical axis wind turbines have vertical rotation axles, unlike traditional wind turbines, which rotate around horizontal axles. Vertical wind turbines convert energy from turbulent winds, pick up wind energy from all directions and are easy to serve. The noise from a vertical axis wind turbine is only one-tenth as strong as horizontal-axle wind turbines, which make it possible to place the verti
