This diploma thesis focuses on an analysis, a model creation and simulations of a car boot door mechanism. The problem was analyzed on the basis of real measurements made on three different vehicles. Based on the measurements, computational models describing the real system at different levels of complexity were created. Matlab/Simulink was used to create and calculate the models. The output of the thesis is the simulator of a car boot door which also includes simplified model of a control unit. The simulator should provide an approximation of current and kinematic quantities of these mechanisms. The model is implemented on dSPACE platform that allows real-time simulations. The simulator can be modified in terms of changing the parameters of the mechanism and modifying some of its results.

Ebenso werden die Fliegende Fähre, der Gondelhafen und die Gondeln nach 1918 behandelt. Die sogenannte Tritonengondel oder Rote Schaluppe kann noch heute im Schlosspark Pillnitz besichtigt werden.

This thesis deals with the issue of preparation of final exams at the Faculty of Information Technology of Brno University of Technology. It describes the process of design and implementation of a web application that allows teachers to create and manage room schemes and terms of individual exams. An important part of the application is also the automatic placement of students in the rooms and the generation of individual exam assignments for printing based on the given template and the method of placement. The application provides students with a clear view of individual exam terms and details about them. The work will result in a functional and usable web application written in Java using the Spring and Angular frameworks.

The relationship between speech articulation therapy dose (frequency, intensity, duration) and treatment outcomes are poorly understood. Identifying optimal therapy doses for specific articulation disorders is essential to providing efficient clinical care. Recent research indicates that intensive speech therapy doses-known as boot camps-may promote rapid improvement and generalization for certain speech disorders. Therefore the present investigation examined the effects of a boot camp speech therapy approach to remediate interdental /s/ production in an 8-year-old male. The boot camp included two days of speech therapy involving visual, tactile, and auditory feedback approaches. Therapy was administered 5.5 hours per day across morning and afternoon sessions. Treatment outcomes were evaluated using auditory-perceptual ratings of pre- and post-treatment word pairs. The results indicated that /s/ production improved significantly immediately following the boot camp and improvements were sustained at one week post-treatment (p < 0.05). Medial and final /s/ productions improved more so than the initial /s/ productions. These findings suggest that the speech therapy boot camp approach may be effective for certain individuals with speech sound disorders. Future research should explore dose-response relationships among speech articulation therapy dose in other children with speech sound disorders.

Betong är idag ett av de material som vi använder mest i byggbranschen och det har sinaföljder. Mer än 50 % av energiutsläppen från byggplatsen kommer från cementtillverkningen.Voided biaxial slab eller VBS är en revolutionerande teknik där man gjuter in plastbollar ibetongen tillsammans med armeringen. Arbetstiden samt torktiden kortas ned samtidigt somvi bevarar hållfastheten och dess funktionalitet. I den här rapporten kommer vi titta närmarepå VBS teknik och jämföra det med konventionell betongplatta och se om tekniken är lämpligför att implementeras i Sverige.Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod i form av källanalys från internet och tryckta källor.Även en komparativ metod i de fallen vi har hittat information från mer än en källa.Rapporten kommer enbart fokusera på betongplattor och våningsavskiljande bjälklag. VBSanvänds i horisontella plan endast. Tak och väggar är därför uteslutna. Tekniken kommerpresenteras i form av viktiga aspekter för dess överlevnad i den svenska marknaden såsomekonomi, strukturella fördelar och hållbarhet.Resultatet visar att VBS rent ekonomiskt nästan bara är positivt jämfört med denkonventionella betongplattan som endast består av armerad betong. Konstruktionsmässigt ärVBS ett konkurrenskraftigt alternativ till armerad betong. Böjhållfastheten är detsamma somarmerad betong. Andra bra positiva aspekter är miljövänligheten, arbetsmiljömässigt,energikonsumtion och värmeisolering.De mindre bra egenskaperna är sämre prestanda i skjuvmotstånd, brandmotstånd ochljudisolering.VBS kan implementeras i Sverige men för att plast ska introduceras i en så pass stor skala såbehövs en infrastruktur. Den bör tillgodose hållbart produktion av Bubbledeck och separeramaterialen vid rivning. Tekniken medför stora fördelar men trots det kan företagen få svårt attmotivera sig till att bygga med VBS när betong är så lättillgängligt och varit med så länge. / Concrete is today one of the materials we use most in the construction industry and it has itsconsequences. More than 50% of the energy emissions from the construction site come fromcement production. Voided biaxial slab or VBS is a revolutionary technique in which plasticballs are cast into the concrete together with the reinforcement. The working time and thedrying time are reduced while maintaining the strength and its functionality. In this report, wewill take a closer look at VBS technology and compare it with conventional concrete slab andsee if the technology is suitable for implementation in Sweden.We have used a qualitative method in the form of source analysis from the Internet andprinted sources. Also a comparative method in cases where we have found information frommore than one source.The report will focus solely on concrete slabs and floor separating flooring. VBS is used inhorizontal planes only. Roofs and walls are therefore excluded. The technology will bepresented in the form of important aspects for its survival in the Swedish market such aseconomy, structural benefits and sustainability.The result shows that VBS is financially almost only positive compared to the conventionalconcrete slab, which consists only of reinforced concrete. In terms of design, VBS is acompetitive alternative to reinforced concrete. The flexural strength is the same as reinforcedconcrete. Other good positive aspects are environmental friendliness, work environment,energy consumption and heat insulation.The less good features are poor performance in shear resistance, fire resistance and soundinsulation.VBS can be implemented in Sweden but for plastic to be introduced on such a large scale, aninfrastructure is needed. It should meet the sustainable production of Bubbledeck and separatethe materials during demolition. The technology brings great benefits, but despite this,companies can find it difficult to motivate them to build with VBS when concrete is so easilyaccessible and has been around for so long.

Den här rapporten behandlar ett utvecklingsprojekt med mål att framställa ett designförslag på utformingen av ett måttdefinerat lastutrymme. Detta sker inom ramen av ett examensarbete, omfattande 22,5 hp, som en del i högskoleingenjörsprogrammet inom innovationsteknik och design på Karlstads universitet. Uppdragsgivare är Martin Larsson, vd på Precer Autotech, ett företag som utvecklar en ny typ av hybridfordon som drivs av fastbränslen. Detta fordon har dimensionerna av en normalstor personbil, men klassas som en motorcykel, eller fyrhjuling. I och med detta har fordonet i fråga speciella faktorer att förhålla sig till när det gäller bl.a. förhållandet mellan vikt och storlek. Utvecklingen av lastutrymmet är ett projekt som är med och utvecklar en grund för det framtida konceptfordon som utav Precer Autotech ska utvecklas. Den industriella designprocessen har genomsyrat projektet och metoder tillhörande denna process har betonats. Metoder såsom användningen av en fullskalig mock-up har gett detta projekt en särprägel. Från idégenereringar till konceptutvecklingar har projektet använt sig av metoder och tillvägagångssätt vilka betonats i projektansvariges universitetsutbildning. Resultatet från detta projekt har mynnat ut i ett helhetskoncept för utforming av det måttbestämda lastutrymmet, som visat sig uppfylla de krav som ställdes på den slutgiltiga konceptlösningen. Denna slutgiltiga konceptlösning har utarbetats i en fullskalig mock-up, vilket också har varit en del av projektets mål. / This report covers a development project which goal is to produce one or more layout concepts of a measure defined boot compartment. This project is conducted as Bachelor of Science thesis within the bachelor engineering program of innovation technics and design in Karlstad University, Sweden. The assignment was supplied by Martin Larsson, managing director at Precer Autotech, a company that is developing a new type of hybrid vehicle that runs on solid fuels. This vehicle owns the dimensions of an average sized car, though is technically defined as a larger sized quad or ATV. Because of this, the vehicle in question is subject to several special factors regarding, for example, the ratio between weight and size. The project is going to provide part of the foundation on which this concept vehicle will be developed. The process of industrial design has pervaded this project, with methods and techniques originated from said process riddling the entirety of the project. Methods such as the use of a full scale mock-up have nuanced this project. From sessions of brainstorming to the development of concepts, this project has been using techniques and ways which has been a defining part of the university studies. The project resulted in one concept for totality of the measure defined boot compartment, which has shown to fulfill the demands of the project. The final concept solution has also been implemented in a full scale mock-up, which was a part of the project’s goals. / Utveckling av lastutrymme för ett konceptfordon

From its inception in 2012, the Dissertation and Thesis Bootcamp at East Tennessee State University (ETSU) has included a library component. Unfortunately, librarians were used more as computer technicians, assisting students with technological access issues and occasional citation help, than as information specialists. In Spring 2015, the new Graduate Librarian and the Distance Education Librarian proposed significantly expanding the librarian's role in the program by adding targeted workshops to address physical and virtual workspace organization and research strategies. In the exit surveys for Boot camp, students have expressed high ratings and appreciation for these formal library instruction opportunities. Familiarity with the embedded librarians greatly increased the interaction between students and librarians, allowing for timely, point of need interventions during boot camp, as well as continued personal consulatations afterwards. This infographic-based poster will use graphed data, linear progression and photographs to showcase the different function performed by the librarians embedded in bootcamp. It will clearly and systematically demonstrate visually how what began as a teaching research and data management skills improved student ability and confidence and progressed to one-on-one and group sessions. This case study will provide inspiration and guidelines to help others reproduce our success. Links to the content of our workshops will also be available.
