Occupant load is one of many important factors when designing a building in regard to its fire safety, as it is a key component in
Tidigare forskning har visat att patienter inom vuxenpsykiatrisk vård utsätts för kränkningar av vårdpersonal, där dehumanisering och stigmatisering av psykisk sjukdom ses som bidragande faktorer. Denna studie ämnade undersöka om det fanns skillnader mellan anmälningar till Inspektionen för vård och omsorg (IVO) rörande kränkande bemötande jämfört med anmälningar rörande andra bemötandebrister, utPrevious research has shown that patients in adult psychiatric care are subject to abuse by healthcare staff, where dehumanization and stigmatization of mental illness are seen as contributing factors. This study aimed to investigate whether there were differences between reports to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO) concerning abusive treatment compared to reports concerning other trea
As the threat from the climate crisis becomes ever more apparent and shows few signs of stopping alternative development models become interesting. Driven by an interest of examining such alternative solutions, this paper studies degrowth due to it being a challenging alternative to currently applied growth-based models of development that see progress as linked to economic growth. This paper exam
Denna uppsats behandlar ämnet uteslutning av advokater ur advokatsamfundet. Det som jag har intresserat mig för är gränsdragningen mellan påföljderna varning och uteslutning. I och med detta har uppsatsen ett tydligt fokus på rättsfall från Högsta domstolen och avgöranden i advokatsamfundets disciplinnämnd. Jag har även valt att analysera disciplinnämndens arbete kritiskt ur ett rättssäkerhetspersThis essay examines the subject of the exclusion of lawyers from the Swedish bar association. In particular I have shown interest in the delimitation between the penalties exclusion and warning in disciplinary matters. Therefore the essay has a clear focus on cases from the Supreme court and decisions from the disciplinary board in the Swedish bar association. I have also analyzed the disciplinary
It is of importance for manufacturing companies to get an overview of costs associated with production. This thesis handles this subject with an emphasis on chosen cutting data as well as chosen tools since this has a large impact of the tooling cost. By modelling on cutting data available from tool manufacturers, cutting data can be implemented to test different cases in the production. This also
Tvångsomhändertagande av unga har på grund av dess ingripande karaktär länge varit föremål för samhällsdebatt. Lagen med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga stadgar de materiella förutsättningarna för staten att tvångsvis vårda den unge. Med tanke på att ett tvångsomhändertagande in-nebär ett allvarligt ingrepp i den personliga integriteten är det ur ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv av avgörande beCompulsory treatment of young persons has, due to its intrusive charachter, been the subject of debate for a long time. The Care of Young Person Act states the prerequisites for the state to coercive care young in need. Considering that compulsory treatment is to be seen as a serious interference with the personal integrity, it is from a legal certainty perspective of crucial importance that the c
This master's thesis investigates both custom lossless compression and high-quality lossy compression of microscopy images of white blood cells produced by CellaVision's blood analysis systems. A number of different compression strategies have been developed and evaluated, all of which are taking advantage of the specific color filter array used in the sensor in the cameras in the analysis
Inom svensk straffrätt är uppsåt det huvudsakliga skuldkravet för straffrättsligt ansvar. Oaktsamhetsansvar är ett outtalat undantag som fångar upp handlingar vilka, trots att de inte genomförts med flit, anses så klandervärda att de motiverar ett straff. I takt med att samhällsvärderingar utvecklas uppkommer frågan vilka skyddsintressen som värderas tillräckligt högt för att skyddas med alla medeIn Swedish criminal law intent is seen as the main culpability form and negligence is punishable only if it is specifically stated. Regarding some crimes this construction is a problem since the law give room for blameworthy but not criminalized actions. The crime rape is regulated in 6 chapter 1 § in the Swedish Penal Code. To be sentenced for rape with todays legislation, it must have been comm
This research focus origins from an international welcomed preschool cartoon Peppa Pig and try to fill in some blank areas of the Chinese Peppa Pig studies. Through the usage of two qualitative methods to explore Chinese audiences’ reception studies of British cartoon Peppa Pig. Qualitative content analysis has been used for understanding audiences’ Peppa Pig reception. After categorizing and codi
While research has been focusing on the human side of mergers and acquisitions (M&A’s), research on trust specifically is still an emerging field. Conducting M&A’s and integrating companies introduces major changes for the acquired employees, making trust a critical factor to consider and to conduct research upon. In order to gain an in-depth understanding of the phenomena of trust, we stu
This thesis work has has been done at Sensative in Lund and the goal has been to build a prototype of a product which the company then may build further upon. The product aims to combine IoT with social responsibility by preventing drowning accidents with the data that is generated and sent via the product. Based of an initial description of the product provided by Sensative, the work then was div
In 2014 during an organisational restructuring of Sony Electronics in Lund, an ongoing inhouse project to develop a resource management software was rushed to completion. The software had at the time been in active development by a team of software engineers for over a year but was quickly brought to completion to meet the new directives. Without clear product ownership and review, the softwa
Research question: "How do young women construct and perform aspirational identities through the Clean Girl aesthetic on digital platforms?" Purpose: The purpose of this study is to expand the understanding of how trendy aesthetics on digital platforms like TikTok shape users’ identity construction and self-performance. Theoretical perspective: Two main theoretical fields, aspirational
The Council on Legislation (Lagrådet) is a key institution in the Swedish democratic process whose role is to examine proposed legislation. This thesis seeks to combine legal and political literature in order to explain under what conditions governments chose to adhere to, or not adhere to, their critique. The study was conducted as a quantitative analysis of significantly criticized bills pro
This thesis explores the topic of interpellation and subjugation in fantasy computer role-playing games (CRPGs). Using an assemblage-based framework, I argue that CRPG players are hailed and manipulated by the interplay of several texts and dynamics—mainly prose, code, numerical values, rule sets, and mechanics. My research focuses on games with extensive textual narratives that match—or exceed—th
The cognitive components of subjective well-being can be measured with the Satisfaction with life scale (SWLS) and the Harmony in life scale (HILS), which both comprise five items each. The aim of this article is to abbreviate these scales and examine their psychometric properties and validity. Three datasets including test-retest data are used (N = 787; N = 860; N = 343). The two first datasets w
The Van (forest) Gujjars, surviving as forest pastoralists in the central part of the Indian Himalaya, are a people who, due to their nomadic lifestyle, have since colonial rule found themselves at the margin of Indian society. This paper will look at the relationship between the Van Gujjars and their forest base in a historical perspective from colonial rule to 'conservation of nature' and the 'r
The toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems have been attracting attention due to their role in regulating stress responses in prokaryotes and their biotechnological potential. Much recognition has been given to type II TA system of mesophiles, while thermophiles have received merely limited attention. Here, we are presenting the putative type II TA families encoded on the genomes of four Geobacillus strains
We report on the study of six similar buildings built in an area of Gothenburg, Sweden,in 1971, which are now in urgent need of renovation. However, the owner of thebuildings - a municipal housing company did not achieve a financially viablerenovation of the pilot project. This meant that renovation on a similar basis for theremaining five buildings would not be possible. For this reason the housi
Pretrained language models are integral part of AI applications, but their high computational cost for training limits accessibility. Initiatives such as Bloom and StarCoder aim to democratize access to pretrained models for collaborative community development. Despite these efforts, such models encounter challenges such as limited multilingual capabilities, risks of catastrophic forgetting during
