This paper studies the relation between persuasive argumentation and the speaker’s epistemic attitude. Dung-style abstract argumentation and dynamic epistemic logic provide the necessary tools to characterize the notion of persuasion. Within abstract argumentation, persuasive argumentation has been previously studied from a game-theoretic perspective. These approaches are blind to the fact that, i
Objective To understand and report on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the everyday lives of frail older persons living in nursing homes by exploring their experiences of how the pandemic-related restrictions had influenced them and in what way. Design Empirical qualitative interview study. Setting A publicly run nursing home in an urban area in Sweden in June 2020. The nursing home had visi
This contribution outlines an XML format for representation of differential-algebraic equations (DAE) models obtained from continuous time Modelica models and possibly also from other equation-based modeling languages. The purpose is to offer a standardized model exchange format which is based on the DAE formalism and which is neutral with respect to model usage. Many usages of models go beyond wh
This study aims to understand the circumstances needed for diffusion of the innovation Basta. By doing a case study of the establishing of FUNK in Gothenburg, I wanted to find explanations for successes and failures in the diffusion process, and see what role the goal of empowerment played in this process. I found that the innovation Basta has a high degree of relative advantage and compatibility
Schools and libraries in Sweden strive to be inclusive of all groups in society, particularly people with disabilities. Both actors are responsible for making knowledge available to all, as knowledge is a necessary precondition for a democratic society that is both inclusive and well-functional. This study was carried out on behalf of the Svane and Hedda schools in Lund, which will be co-located
In life-threatening conditions in the vessels of the brain, neurointervention can be the treatment that saves lives. With only one incision in the vessel of the groin, a catheter can be navigated to the affected vessel and treatment can be performed using tools inserted through the catheter. In this report, a training model for neurointervention consisting of interconnected vascular models has be
In this master thesis work, the effect of polarization, at the Base Station (BS) side, on the performance of multi-user Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) systems is studied. This study was performed using synchronous multi-link measurements that took place at the campus of the faculty of Engineering, LTH, Lund University, Lund, Sweden, where two different BS setups were studied. In the first setup, on
Denna examensuppsats behandlar djurskydd ur ett rättsutvecklingsperspektiv från tiden innan vår tidräkning och fram till idag. Jag redogör för de ideologiska och filosofiska strömningar som lett fram till de olika förändringar som skett under århundradena. Människor har redan innan vår tidräkning haft filosofiska resonemang kring förhållandet mellan djur och människor. I uppsatsen analyseras hur lThis thesis investigates animal protection from a legislation development perspective from 400 B.C. to today. I describe the ideological and philosophical trends that have influenced the changes that have occurred throughout the centuries. People have for thousands of years had thoughtful discussions about the relationship between humans and animals. The thesis analyzes how the legislation has bee
This study is based on interviews with people who have been in contact with psychiatric care and are, or have been in recovery from mental illness. The aim was to investigate how the interviewees describe their recovery and which factors that matter in recovery. The previous research this study builds upon show that a key aspect of recovery comes from reclaiming power of self and finding or, refin
In this work we study how the information provision should be organised in a new smaller size Swedish university college in a town without previous academic traditions. Specifically, our aim is to propose a possible model for information provision in Campus Helsingborg which is currently under construction. The study consists of two parts: literature review and empirical investigation. In the lite
This thesis deals with the application of the so-called Essential Facilities Doctrine in Community law against the background of the special characteristics and needs of the biotechnology industry. The Essential Facilities Doctrine obliges under competition law the dominant owner of an essential facility to grant access to third parties on non-discriminatory terms. When obliged to grant access the
The actualization of affordances can often be accomplished in numerous, equifinal ways. For instance, an individual could discard an item in a rubbish bin by walking over and dropping it, or by throwing it from a distance. The aim of the current study was to investigate the behavioral dynamics associated with such metastability using a ball-to-bin transportation task. Using time-interval between s
This state-of-the-art handbook, the first in a series that provides medical physicists with a comprehensive overview into the field of nuclear medicine, is dedicated to instrumentation and imaging procedures in nuclear medicine. It provides a thorough treatment on the cutting-edge technologies being used within the field, in addition to touching upon the history of their use, their development, an
Combining neo-institutionalism, actor network theory, and Gabriel Tarde’s sociology, Czarniawska considers the key driver of organizational change to be imitation but an imitation that rests on translation. Organizations emulate one another by translating fashionable ideas according to their understanding, traditions, needs, and means. As translation in this tradition always entails a transformati
Most students of politics are familiar with Carl Schmitt’s definition of politics as a friend-enemy distinction. Yet, only few know of alternative conceptions of politics in interwar Germany that emphasize cooperation and legality over confrontation and decisionism. To unlock such views, this article examines the work of Hermann Heller, a social-democratic constitutional theorist, and takes a clos
The current status of and motivation for the 4MOST survey strategy, as developed by the Consortium science team, are presented here. Key elements of the strategy are described, such as sky coverage, number of visits and total exposure times in different parts of the sky, and how to deal with different observing conditions. The task of organising the strategy is not simple, with many different sur
Aims: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a slowly progressive disease, often transmitted among people who inject drugs (PWID). Mortality in PWID is high, with an overrepresentation of drug-related causes. This study investigated the risk of death in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with or without illicit substance use disorder (ISUD). Methods: Patients with HCV were identified usin
