In recent years whistleblowing has increased. At the same time, the hybrid media culture has allowed whistleblowers to further participate in, and influence narratives. Previous research demonstrates both the increased impact of whistleblowers and the relevance of the two-step flow model in the hybrid media landscape. What is not investigated, however, is the relationship between whistleblowers
This thesis investigates how public archives in Sweden engage with ecological sustainability, with the purpose to provide an opportunity for reflection and discussion on the topic. My point in question is the disambiguation of the Swedish word “hållbarhet”. This is used both in reference to sustainability, meaning actions for improving environmental conditions, and to durability, which in the arch
The influence of environmental policy has been known to move beyond the country or regional contexts in which they have been implemented. Examples in literature include the “California effect” and the “Brussels effect”, showing how the policies adopted in the EU and California influence other jurisdictions. In this paper we study the following: To what extent are companies operating in the United

As part of the programme “Borrow a researcher” ("Låna en forskare)" within the frame of “Forskar fredag”, our very own associate professor and educational developer in the lab Maria Graziano, had the opportunity to talk with curios young students both h

This study investigated how preschool children processed and understood critical information in Magical Garden, a teachable agent-based play-&-learn game targeting early math. We analyzed 36 children’s (ages 4–6 years) real-time behavior during game-use to explore whether children: (i) processed the information meant to support number sense development; (ii) showed an understanding of the teac
The fatigue deterioration modeling for welded steel structures subjected to high cycle fatigue is presented in the current document. The aim of this paper is to formulate approaches based on actual research results for the phases fatigue crack initiation, fatigue propagation and fatigue failure. The physical characteristics of the approaches are discussed in combination with the associated uncerta
A reliability-based approach to inspection planning for welded steel structures subjected to high cycle fatigue is presented in the current document. Inspections are an effective means to control the progress of fatigue deterioration and the presented approach allows to determine the minimum required inspection effort so that the considered structure complies with the given risk acceptance criteri
Most state-of-the-art satisfiability algorithms today are variants of the DPLL procedure augmented with clause learning. The main bottleneck for such algorithms, other than the obvious one of time, is the amount of memory used, fn the field of proof complexity, the resources of time and memory correspond to the length and space of resolution proofs. There has been a long line of research trying to
This paper is intended to present the results of an experimental investigation upon the possibility of clay core replacement with fiber (polypropylene) reinforced concrete core in rock‐fill dams. Within the rock‐fill dams, usually clayey soil is used as the main core material of the whole structure. Due to the fact that this kind of soil, being used; would have caused many problems such as; a huge
Many studies focusing on design activities use the interview technique as part of their investigation. Nevertheless, methodological discussions about the interview setting as the locus of a social interaction between the interviewer and the respondent and its implications for the interpretation of the data obtained are rarely found in publications within our design community. Part I of this public
In 2010 the Mozilla Foundation established the Digital Open Badges concept as a virtual incarnation of physical counterparts such as a paper certificate or a youth organisation merit badge. Digital Open Badges offer embedded, verifiable, metadata containing information such as the issuer and award criteria. Open Badges can be used to reward learning, participation or achievement. They can be store
We focus on the task of estimating a physically plausi-ble articulated human motion from monocular video. Ex-isting approaches that do not consider physics often pro-duce temporally inconsistent output with motion artifacts, while state-of-the-art physics-based approaches have either been shown to work only in controlled laboratory conditions or consider simplified body-ground contact limited to f
A large share of health-related information is today sought and communicated via the internet, including in social media. Questions have been raised about how this may affect health perceptions and behaviors, not least by enabling the communication of claims that contradict information from established medical authorities. As an example, knowledge claims about systemic side effects of the contrace
Participation in clinical work is important for medical students’ professional development. However, students often report that they experience a passive observer role, and further research on contextual factors that influence student participation is needed. The theory of practice architectures contributes a new perspective to this challenge by elucidating how cultural-discursive, material-econom
We consider geometric problems on planar n2-point sets in the congested clique model. Initially, each node in the n-clique network holds a batch of n distinct points in the Euclidean plane given by Ο(log n)-bit coordinates. Ineach round, each node can send a distinct Ο(log n)-bit message to each other node in the clique and perform unlimited local computations. We show that the convex hull of the
Cross-border multi-modal and railway transportation often faces different risks and problems creating delays, sometimes driven by technical or administrative discontents between countries. For cold supply chains, the risks of such delays get even more important to understand and handle, due to the perishable characteristics of the goods. While some previous research has dealt with risk assessment
