Among ten percent of today's independent schools in Sweden have a denominational emphasis. This approach has caused great debate in media. To get an understanding of the media debate the ambition of this essay is to find out what rules denominational schools are governed by, and also which discretion this schools have. To find answers to these questions I will use a kind of idea centered analy

Kommunikatörsyrket är sedan en tid tillbaka i en förändringsfas. Allt fler kommunikatörer upplever att utvecklingen går från en mer renodlad producentroll, till en roll som strateg. Denna uppsats undersöker hur en sådan förändring av internkommunikatörsrollen genomförts i en större organisation. Studien genomfördes ur ett tolkande perspektiv med kvalitativ metod på Universitetssjukhuset Malmö Allm

This study examines art therapy for children living in an exposed life situation. This study is to examine if therapy is a working method in work with children living in exposure. For example children who are having a parent with addiction to alcohol, children having a parent with a psychological disorder, children with a serious disease and children with psychological disorders. A qualitative met

Human beings have a universal human dignity. To realize it, they have to use the human rights that come with it. After the acknowledgement of their own dignity, they can respect human beings as bearers of the universal dignity. To respect the dignity is both to treat every human being as a subject, a goal itself, trough collaboration, and to create and maintain the conditions that need to exist fo

A new type of expanded bed matrix with a heavy core of stainless steel covered with an agarose layer was prepared. Two bead size fractions, the smaller one (32–75 μm ∅) having a single particle core and the larger (75–180 μm ∅) with an agglomerate of stainless steel particles constituting the core, were chosen for further characterisation. The dispersion behaviour was determined both in packed bed

AbstractIntroductionConservative treatment of acute appendicitis is gaining popularity, and identifying patients with a higher risk of recurrence is becoming increasingly important. Previous studies have suggested that older age, male sex, diabetes, appendicolith and abscess formation may be contributing factors, however, results from the adult population are inconsistent.AimThis study aims to ide

In the context of natural hazard risk quantification and modeling of hazard interactions, some literature separates “Level I” (or occurrence) interactions from “Level II” (or consequence) interactions. The Level I interactions occur inherently due to the nature of the hazards, independently of the presence of physical assets. In such cases, one hazard event triggers or modifies the occurrence of a

As it is the case in many European countries, psychosocial disabil-ities have become an important concern in Sweden. Persons withpsychosocial disabilities’ experiences of various societal domainssuch as school, work, family life, leisure activities and contactwith welfare agencies need a complex analysis which takes intoaccount both personal and contextual factors. This article draws on15 intervie

COVID-19 disease models have aided policymakers in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) with many critical decisions. Many challenges remain surrounding their use, from inappropriate model selection and adoption, inadequate and untimely reporting of evidence, to the lack of iterative stakeholder engagement in policy formulation and deliberation. These issues can contribute to the misuse of mode

With increased autonomy in marine vessels, autonomous surface vessels (ASVs) and conventionally manned vessels need to coexist at sea. Any relocation needs to include collision avoidance according to the traffic rules at sea, COLREGs. Here, a local collision-avoidance planner for an archipelago environment is presented. The optimization-based local planner presented considers a predefined nominal

Low-carbon behaviour changes are essential for achieving the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5° Celsius. Increasingly, it is recognised that such behaviour changes cause further effects in individuals' lifestyles, which are important to understand for the success of such low-carbon behaviour changes. Rebound effects can occur that undermine the carbon savings, and individual well-bein

We address the challenges in estimating 3D human poses from multiple views under occlusion and with limited overlapping views. We approach multi-view, single-person 3D human pose reconstruction as a regression problem and propose a novel encoder-decoder Transformer architecture to estimate 3D poses from multi-view 2D pose sequences. The encoder refines 2D skeleton joints detected across different

Recently, many forms of audio industrial applications, such as sound monitoring and source localization, have begun exploiting smart multi-modal devices equipped with a microphone array. Regrettably, model-based methods are often difficult to employ for such devices due to their high computational complexity, as well as the difficulty of appropriately selecting the user-determined parameters. As a

The composition-dependent spin exchange interaction in a perovskite-structured Pb(Fe0.5−xNix)Nb1/2O3 system has been studied to understand its multiferroicity at room-temperature. Special emphasis was paid to the magnetic behavior in terms of magnetic moment, interatomic distance, and atomic ordering because they play a key role in the modulation of magnetic multiferroic behavior. We observed that

Hyperbolic paraboloids, “hypars,” are special types of ruled surfaces. Their geometric properties provide them with loadbearing and stabilizing capacities, as well as distinct esthetic qualities. These attributes become evident in numerous applications in buildings, in many of which concrete or timber is used for the construction of the hypars. Hypars could also be relevant in the context of circu

We study the realizability and strong satisfiability problems for SAFETY LTL, a syntactic fragment of Linear Temporal Logic ([Formula presented]) capturing safe formulas. While it is well-known that realizability for this fragment lies in [Formula presented], the best-known lower bound is [Formula presented]-hardness. Surprisingly, closing this gap has proven an elusive task. Previous works have c

We extend and strengthen a theorem of Bates that says that row-finite graphs that are strong shift equivalent have Morita equivalent graph C*-algebras. This allows us to ask whether our stronger notion of Morita equivalence does in fact characterise strong shift equivalence. We believe this will be relevant for future research on infinite graphs and their C*-algebras. We also study in-splits and o
