The recent development of metal additive manufacturing has opened up new opportunities for component design, enabling the production of more complex structures than previously possible. This newfound freedom can be exploited to reduce mass, improve structural performance and adapt the geometry to specific requirements. Topology optimization is an effective tool for utilizing this design freedom, a
In the natural sciences, there are many processes involving the loss of tension in a stretched membrane. Thus, one can ask what would happen to a stretched membrane from which certain parts have been removed. One would see that overlapping parts result in some region of the membrane losing tension. Then, if one considers any part that loses tension to also be removed from the membrane, this newly
This thesis examines how international legal discourse within the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) constructs and distributes legality, legitimacy, and responsibility in debates concerning Israel-Palestine. The study argues that legal exceptionalism does not primarily operate through the formal suspension of international law, but through the discursive pre-structuring of actors as different
Companies continuously seek to improve both operational efficiency and financial performance. To support operations and enable investments, capital is required. An important consideration is capital binding, which refers to the amount of capital tied up within the business and the duration for which it remains tied up. While capital binding is often associated with inventory levels, it emerges thr
Falsterbonäset är ett låglänt kustområde med hög sårbarhet för översvämning vid stigande havsnivåer och framtida stormhändelser. Som skydd mot detta anläggs ett 21 kilometer långt översvämningsskydd bestående av skyddsvallar och murar med en krönnivå på +3,0 m i RH2000. Föreliggande studie analyserar skyddsvallens sårbarhet genom att kombinera beräkningar av vågöverspolning med experimentell utvär
Denna artikel granskar kritiskt Svenska kyrkans förhållningssätt till migranters integration utifrån kontextuell teologi och pedagogisk teori. Med utgångspunkt i tre års etnografiskt fältarbete med en bibelstudiegrupp bestående av ensamkommande afghanska ungdomar, kontrasteras två pedagogiska modeller: en monologisk, assimilationsinriktad modell och en dialogisk, deltagarbaserad modell inspirerad
In today’s largely market-based global economy, financial markets such as stock and bond markets play an increasingly important role. As a result, an understanding of the workings of the modern market economy almost certainly requires knowledge of the basic functions of financial markets.Finance – Markets, Instruments & Investments provides a comprehensive yet relatively short and non-technica
This article examines how privacy allowed agents to explore unsanctioned or controversial kinds of knowledge, as exemplified by August of Saxony’s handwritten book of healing charms (1585). By looking at how Elector August of Saxony (1526–86) selected and eliminated elements of charms for all kinds of afflictions, this article analyzes how popular knowledge could be transformed in private to fit t
Few academic subjects have come under as much pressure as languages other than English (LOTEs) over the past decades. This study examines how foreign language education in 39 subjects within Swedish Higher Education (HE) has evolved since the implementation of the Bologna reform in 2007/2008. Particular attention is given to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. The results show a long-term declin
Classrooms are becoming increasingly digital. One novel digital technology that might enter classrooms soon is eye tracking. This is a method to estimate a person’s gaze direction and infer the point of visual attention. This technology has already provided insights into how students process computer-based instructional material. Moreover, it has been used to enhance pre-recorded video instruction
Experience tells us that results from discrete analyses in many cases may produce alternative interpretations. The choice of means of interpretation may in turn be crucial when explaining the archaeological model. Most often an adequate material for comparison is missing, which if available would have given a priority to a realistic alternative interpretation i.e. true to real life. Only through t
