Den här texten beskriver processen under vilken jag studerat mig själv som improvisationsmusiker i formatet solopiano. Jag undersöker hur jag skapar bästa möjliga förutsättningar för att känna mig både fri, inspirerad och motiverad, när jag inte får någon musikalisk information från andra medmusiker. Med hjälp av etablerandet av strikta ramar och begränsningar av olika karaktär har jag genomfört iThis paper describes the process during which I’ve studied myself as an improvisational musician in the format of solo piano. I examine in what way I can create the best possible conditions for myself to feel both free, inspired and motivated, when I’m not receiving any musical information from fellow musicians. With the help of different kinds of strict frames and limitations, I have performed im

Att uppskatta lövyteindex med satellitdata Vegetation har unika spektrala egenskaper som kan användas inom fjärranalys för att få information om viktiga ekologiska parametrar, som t.ex löyteindex (eng. leaf area index, LAI, lövyta per markenhet). LAI styr många ekologiska processer som fotosyntes och transpiration. Med hjälp av satellitbilder kan man uppskatta LAI i stor skala. Vegetation absorLeaf area index, LAI, is an important biophysical parameter in ecological modeling. It is the ratio of leaf area per unit ground area. To obtain LAI over large areas in a fast and convenient way the use of satellite data is important. Aim of the project was to determine if there is a relationship between LAI and red-, NIR reflectance and a couple of vegetation indices: Global Environment Monitorin

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate plasma levels of Heparin Binding Protein (HBP) in patients with induced hypothermia after cardiac arrest (CA) and study any correlation to severity of organ failure and neurological outcome. Methods: This study included 84 consecutive patients with CA of mixed origin treated with hypothermia. Plasma samples from 7 different time points during t

Purpose How BIM can provide added value in the early stages of a construction project Methodology: A case study has been conducted with qualitative, semi-structured interviews with relevant positions in Arkitektbyrån Design and Skanska. Theoretical perspectives: The Theory chapter starts by describing traditional planning. A description of BIM is presented. Next, an explanation of Open-BIM followe

Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka effekterna av användningen av Facebook för organisationer med fokus på ungdomar inom socialt arbete med fokus på vad organisationsrepresentanterna har för syn på professionalitet kopplat till Facebook och även hur detta påverkar deras roll som socialarbetare och relationen till ungdomarna. Vi utförde två kvalitativa metoder. En innehållsanalys över offici”We're also on Facebook!” Organizations, that work in the social field focusing on adolescents, view on professionalism on Facebook The aim of this paper was to examine the impact of the use of Facebook for organizations focusing on adolescents within the social work. More specifically was to find out what view the organizations representatives have on professionalism when using Facebook. Als

Syftet med denna studie är att identifiera verktyg för att arbeta med rytm inom gitarrundervisning. Min frågeställning är: Hur definieras och verbaliseras rytm och timing? Studiens syfte och dess huvudfråga har utmynnat i en underfråga som är: Vad påverkar utförandet av rytm i gitarrspel? Genom min frågeställning vill jag få kännedom om hur gitarrlärare och gitarrister arbetar med rytm på sitt insTitle: Guitar in time and rhythm. The purpose of this study is to identify tools for rhythm teaching in guitar education. My research question is: How is rhythm and timing defined and verbalized? The purpose of the study and the research question has resulted in a subquestion which is: What affects the practice of rhythm in guitar playing? Through my research question, I want to gain knowledge abo

Haldex Traction can with their Active Yaw Control prevent unwanted handling by applying an extra yaw torque with their all wheel drive system. To be able to calculate when or when not, yaw torque should be applied, it is important to accurate know the different state information about the vehicle. When driving on banked roads, vehicle dynamics and sensor measurements are changed compared to drivin

In this thesis the implementation of fundamental democratic values in municipal multi-party elected councils, Hamn- och gatunämnden and Barn- och utbildningsnämnden in Varberg, is discussed. A discussion about what implications expert knowledge can have in the decision-making process is also conducted. The thesis consists of two parts. In the first part an empirical analysis of ideas is conducted

Heat treatment of barley husks was performed to extract arabinoxylan with high yield and high weight-averaged molecular mass (M(W)). Microwave irradiation was employed for initial screening of suitable residence times (2-15min), temperatures (120-210 degrees C) and initial pH (3-13) of the reaction slurry. Microwave irradiation was shown to be a good method for predicting the effects of heat treat

Older adults living in rural and urban areas have shown to distinguish themselves in technology adoption; a clearer profile of their Internet use is important in order to provide better technological and health-care solutions. Older adults' Internet use was investigated across large to midsize cities and rural Sweden. The sample consisted of 7181 older adults ranging from 59 to 100 years old. Inte

Background: Risk factors for hip fracture are well studied because of the negative impact on patients and the community, with mortality in the first year being almost 30% in the elderly. Age, gender and fall risk-increasing drugs, identified by the National Board of Health and Welfare in Sweden, are well known risk factors for hip fracture, but how multimorbidity level affects the risk of hip frac

Cytopore is a bead-shaped, macroporous and easily compressible cellulose-based anion-exchange material intended for cultivation of anchor-dependent animal cells. Reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) is a strong, non-compressible, high voidage (97%) matrix material that can be cut to desired geometrical shapes. Cytopore and RVC were combined to cylindrical composites (25mm 10mm) fitted inside chromato

[Context] Coordinating a software project across distances is challenging. Even without geographical and time zone distances, other distances within a project can cause communication gaps. For example, organisational and cognitive distances between product owners and development-near roles such as developers and testers can lead to differences in understanding and interpretation of the business re

Measurements of the adiabatic laminar burning velocities of n-heptane, iso-octane, ethanol and their binary and tertiary mixtures are reported. Non-stretched flames were stabilized on a perforated plate burner at 1 atm. The Heat Flux method was used to determine burning velocities under conditions when the net heat loss from the flame to the burner is zero. Initial temperatures of the gas mixtures

Background: The aim of this study was to examine in elderly men a relationship between depressive symptoms, peripheral vascular disease and cerebral blood flow (CBF). Methods: Population-based cohort study started with an examination of 809 men at age 55, followed by the first (age 68ys) and second follow up (age 82ys). 128 survivors were examined at age 82 with Tc-99m-HMPAO-SPECT to estimate CBF,

This paper describes an analysis of the angular distribution of W -> e nu and W -> mu nu decays, using data from pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 35 pb(-1). Using the decay lepton transverse momentum and the missing transverse momentum, the W decay angular distribution projected onto the transver

Electrochemical oxidation is an effective method in removal of organic pollutant from high salinity waste-water (NaCl), by producing active chlorine at anode or hydrogen peroxide at cathode. To solve the existing problems including low efficiency, high cost and energy consumption, a Ti/SnO2-Sb anode (TSSA)-air diffusion cathode (TSSA-ADC) system was investigated for methyl orange (MO) removal from
