The aim of this qualitative study is to investigate of why Swedish social workers migrates from public employments to outsourced private employers in the same environment. We also looked into how the outsourced social workers perceives their new employment and how they plan their future carrier. Our findings shows us some main theme of social workers being pushed away from bad working environment
Suicide among young people are a serious problem worlwide as well in Sweden. The main purpose with this study was to examine and understand how suicide can be explained- to identify possible causes to suicide behaviour among young people. Through a qualitative approach, I interviewed six people who are working with young people in different ways. The main- result from this study shows that suicid
The purpose of this study is to see how gender stereotypes are being mediated to children through books. The aim is to study how children are raised into their gender role. To do this, the content of two books has been analyzed by discourse analysis to be able to find underlying messages for the children reading the books. Main focus in this study is to study how the child’s emotions are being dea
The purpose and goals of this essay is to investigate and explain the Late Mesolithic site at Norrjevägen in Kämpinge from a technological perspective. The foundation of the essay is two private collections of surface finds, found and gathered by Leif Brost, who owns and run the Amber Museum in Kämpinge, and Paul Matsson, amateur archaeologist from Trelleborg. The collections consist of 5331 surfa
The purpose of this paper is to develop a model and control algorithm for the slab temperature control problem, which is the control of a number of steel blocks (slabs) passing through a furnace burner zone. The slab temperature is controlled by varying the zone temperatrure. First a model for a single slab passing through the furnace is developed and the parameters are estimated. Data from the re
The initial formation stages of surfactant-templated silica thin films which grow at the air-water interface were studied using combined spin-echo modulated small-angle neutron scattering (SEMSANS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The films are formed from either a cationic surfactant or nonionic surfactant (C16EO8) in a dilute acidic solution by the addition of tetramethoxysilane. Previ
C4b-binding protein (C4BP) regulates the classical pathway C3-convertase of the complement system. Human C4BP is composed of seven identical subunits (alpha-chains) and one unique one (beta-chain). Both types of chains contain homologous repeats called complement control proteins (CCPs); the alpha-chain contains eight CCPs and the beta-chain three. Each alpha-chain contains a binding site for C4b
BACKGROUND: After completing university education, biomedical laboratory scientists work in clinical laboratories, in biomedical research laboratories, in biotech, and in pharmaceutical companies. Laboratory diagnostics have undergone rapid development over the recent years, with the pace showing no signs of abatement. This rapid development challenges the competence of the staff and will most cer
Firekite is a synchronous stream cipher using a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) whose security is conjectured to rely on the hardness of the Learning Parity with Noise (LPN) problem. It is one of a few LPN-based symmetric encryption schemes, and it can be very efficiently implemented on a low-end SoC FPGA. The designers, Bogos, Korolija, Locher and Vaudenay, demonstrated appealing properties
Monolithic heterogeneous integration of III-V semiconductors with the contemporary Si Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology has instigated a wide range of possibilities and functionalities in the semiconductor industry, in the field of digital circuits, optical sensors, light emitters, and high-frequency communication devices. However, the integration of III-V semiconductors is
Hydrogen (H2) and methanol (MeOH) are promising fuels for sustainable transport, owing to their ideal properties for use in internal combustion engines: CO2 neutral (when produced renewably), ultralow emissions, and high efficiencies. The dual-fuel (DF) technology where diesel is used as a pilot to ignite port fuel injected H2 or MeOH is of particular interest for retrofitting existing diesel engi
The climate crisis calls for a new generation of social policy compatible with planetary limits and economic postgrowth circumstances. This article analyses how some of the pillars of such a new generation of social policy may be conceptualized by highlighting commonalities between the most recent IPCC report and the sustainable welfare literature. Methodologically triangulating content analysis o
In this paper we analyze how the spatiality of interactions influences trust creation in multi-site corporate innovation projects. By drawing on insights from the discussion on initial and gradual trust in combination with contributions from the field of economic geography, we examine factors influencing the creation of trust and their dependence on face-to-face interaction. We develop a conceptua
The importance of rare earth elements in modern technological industry grows, and as a result the interest for developing separation processes increases. This work is a part of developing chromatography as a rare earth element processing method. Process optimization is an important step in process development, and there are several competing objectives that need to be considered in a chromatograph
Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) is an interesting option for ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials. To meet desired overall yields during ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials, it is important to use both hexoses and pentoses. This can be achieved by co-fermentation of sugars in SSF, so called SSCF (simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation), us
