In the history of the U.S.-Japan relations, Commodore Perry’s expedition can be considered both as a great destination for the U.S. westward expansion and a watershed for Japan’s modernization. The previous scholars on this historical event have built a basis for understanding its political intentions, historical significance, and influence on Japan’s social transformation. Considering the historiography of the U.S.-Japan relations in Commodore Perry’s expedition, this study will examine the encounter of the U.S. and Japan by focusing more on the complexity and diversity of the agencies from various people’s perspectives. In order to accomplish the goal, this study firstly demonstrates the chronological study of the U.S. encounters with Japan/the Ryukyu Kingdom (Okinawa). The second chapter will integrate several accounts of members in the expedition and Japanese officials/intellectuals/commoners to investigate a variety of experiences and perspectives in terms of the following three ideas: race, gender, and Christianization/Civilization. The final chapter will include the Ryukyuan and Japanese perspectives into the narrative of Commodore Perry’s expedition to include various viewpoints from all three, the Americans, Japanese and Ryukyuans.

The Utah War and its aftermath changed Utah and the Mormons forever. This change came because of the growing Gentile influence in the territory and was reflected most adequately in the current periodicals of the period. The Valley Tan and the Mountaineer are especially important because their opposition to one another brought many important issues to the forefront of discussion. These issues would be important to the Mormons learning to live and work with those not of their faith and to share in their Zion.These newspapers were successful in giving to its reader, both past and present, a glimpse into the troubles and pains of a very difficult time in Utah history.

In 1996 Primus launched their expedition stove Multifuel, the first stove that could run on liquified petroleum gas (LPG), white gas, kerosene and aviation fuel. The multi-fuel stoves are part of the Primus expedition range of equipment. The line was designed and built to perform in extreme conditions. The expedition stoves have been roughly the same since then. Therefore Primus wanted to investigate what the future looks like for these stoves. The expedition segment is very important to the company as it reflects their heritage. Primus had an internal goal of updating the expedition line within the next few years, which was the main reason why this master thesis project arose. The purpose of the project was to investigate the usability of expedition line stoves and understand the user needs to find a direction for the next generation of expedition stoves. The goal was to deliver product development guidelines that Primus can make use of in the continued work as well a well-motivated concept and recommendations for future development based on these guidelines. The work has been carried out applying an adapted lead user approach, meaning some chosen users have been involved throughout the whole development process. Extensive research was made including interviews and user studies. The qualitative data was analysed with inspiration from the Gioia framework and resulted in product development guidelines including insights from the analysis, a user-centered re-segmentation of Primus’ expedition stove line and identification of whitespace. It became evident that an expedition gas stove should be included in the segment as professional users show great will to use gas and the need for multi-fuel is low. Based on the guidelines and user involvement a validated product concept was brought forth. The Primus Altitude Ti is an expedition gas stove in titanium with a flame spreading laminar flow burner providing silent and fuel efficient cooking. The stove has a regulated valve at the burner and an ON/OFF valve at the canister allowing to run the stove in liquid feed mode which is beneficial in cold conditions. / År 1996 lanserade Primus sitt expeditionskök Multifuel, vilket var det första köket som kunde användas med gasol, kemiskt ren bensin, fotogen och flygbränsle. Multifuel och ytterligare två flerbränslekök är idag en del av företagets expeditionssegment, som designades för att prestera under extrema förhållanden. Expeditionsköken har inte förändrats avsevärt sedan de togs fram, vilket ledde till att Primus ville undersöka hur framtiden för dessa kök ser ut. Eftersom expeditionsköken symboliserar företagets arv är det ett viktigt segment för dem. Primus satte upp ett internt mål att uppdatera expeditionssegmentet inom de närmsta åren, vilket var huvudorsaken till att detta examensarbete utfördes. Syftet med projektet var att undersöka användarvänligheten hos expeditionsköken och förstå användarnas behov för att på så sätt besluta om en riktning för nästa generations expeditionskök. Målet med arbetet var att leverera både riktlinjer för kommande produktutveckling och ett välmotiverat produktkoncept som är baserat på de framtagna riktlinjerna. Under arbetets gång har en anpassad variant av lead user-metoden använts, vilket betyder att ett antal utvalda användare med värdefulla egenskaper har involverats genom arbetsprocessen. Omfattande undersökningar har gjorts genom bland annat intervjuer och användarstudier. Den kvalitativa datan analyserades med inspiration av Gioia-metodologin och resulterade i en överlämning med riktlinjer för produktutveckling. Detta innefattar insikter från analysen, en användarcentrerad omsegmentering av Primus expeditionssegment samt en identifiering av luckor på marknaden. Det blev tydligt att ett expeditionsgaskök borde inkluderas i segmentet eftersom professionella användare visade stor vilja att använda gas och behovet för flerbränslekök var litet. Baserat på riktlinjerna togs ett produktkoncept fram. Primus Altitude Ti är ett expeditionsgaskök mestadels bestående av titan med en bred brännare som använder sig av tekniken för ett laminärt flöde, vilket ger en tyst och bränsleeffektiv användning. Köket har en steglös ventil vid brännaren samt en ventil med två lägen, på och av, vid gasbehållaren som tillåter drift av köket med gasbehållaren uppochned vilket är fördelaktigt vid kalla förhållanden.
