I dagsläget utförs fullskaliga kapacitetsprov på sprinkleranläggningar med syfte att undersöka om erforderligt tryck och flöde kan erhållas i händelse av brand. Fullskaliga kapacitetsprov är däremot relaterade till risker som lågt tryck i vattenledningsnät, blödning på gjutjärnsrör, översvämning av lågt belägna områden och tryckslag i rör. I detta arbete undersöks om reducerade kapacitetsprov sammTo this date, full-scale capacity tests are performed in sprinkler facilities in order to investigate if sufficient pressure and flow can be achieved in case of fire. Full-scale capacity tests may, however, cause problems such as low pressure in pipes, scaling of pipe walls, flooding of low topography areas, and water hammer. This report intends to research whether reduced capacity tests together

The aim of this thesis is motivated by three parallel discussions; the popular Lutheran rhetoric in placing law against grace, the discussion in contemporary moral philosophy where a neutral perspective on ethical assessments is assumed, and a recent Swedish case and public debate in which a minority group's need for bodily integrity was breached with reference to universal principles. These d

Kön och könsskillnader har kanske aldrig varit så omdebatterade som nu. Det finns dock ett ställe där könet inte ska få spela någon roll. Vid rättstillämpningen i våra domstolar. Där gäller istället principen om allas likhet inför lagen. Syftet med denna uppsats är att applicera den principen på tillämpningen av 3 § lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU) och specifikt rekviGender is a heavily discussed topic in today’s debate. However, there is one place where it should not be given importance, in our courts, due to the principle of equality before the law. The purpose of this essay is to apply that principle on the Swedish courts’ application of the 3 § of the care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act, (LVU). 3 § LVU mentions three grounds for when a young per

Enligt den senaste statistiken sitter cirka 4 100 personer i svenska fängelser. Kriminalvården är en förvaltningsmyndighet med förhållandevis omfattande utrymme att fatta egna beslut om hur övervakningen av intagna i fängelse ska utformas. Detta innebär att Kriminalvården får fatta och vidta flera olika beslut respektive åtgärder. Kraven på rättssäkerhet är dock olika högt ställda inom olika delarThere are approximately 4 100 people incarcerated in Swedish prisons. They are in the custody of The Swedish Prison and Probation Service (SPPS). SPPS is the authority in charge of the correctional institutional treatment of offenders. The SPPS’ measures and decisions taken within the prisons can be sorted into three main categories: to maintain order and security within the prisons, to prepare in

Idag kopplas allt fler enheter upp på Internet, vilket effektiviserar såväl enhetshantering som kommunikation mellan enheter. I hemmiljöer kan användare styra enheter genom att förse dem med beskrivande namn, som till exempel "högtalare vardagsrum". Så länge antalet enheter är begränsat är en sådan lösning ofta tillräcklig. I ett fall med ett stort antal enheter måste användaren dock hålToday, an increasing amount of physical devices are obtaining Internet connectivity for more efficient management and device communication. In home environments, users may manage devices by providing them descriptive names such as "living room speaker". For a limited set of devices such a solution is often sufficient. However, in a case where one wants to individually manage a very high

Loneliness as a social issue has been gaining extensive interest in recent years, but the subject has lacked results stemming from qualitative research and the link between loneliness and low income has been understudied. This thesis is one minor part in covering these both gaps. I have aimed at using previous quantitative findings on loneliness among low income earners in order to expand on the l

This study is a critical analysis about the meaning of labor within a Swedish consultant company. The aim of this study is to showcase, describe and evaluate employees attitudes towards their profession as a sales consultant. Therefore the study focus on identifying and analyzing the structures of meaning at the workplace, and the relationship between the employees and the organizational culture.

Although landscape representations in the US-European culture have traditionally been acknowledged as a peaceful ordering of the world or the tool of imperialism, nationalism and private property (sometimes all simultaneously), a new shift in the landscape scopic regime seems to be happening. Produced by the current rise of concerns around climate change and environmental crisis, this shift seems

De senaste tio åren har antalet sökta bygglov för småhus med träregelstomme mer än fördubblats. I dagsläget finns inget allmänt krav att säkerställa horisontalkapacitet för småhus men är något som beställaren kan efterfråga och som många konstruktörer någon gång upplevt problematiskt. Projekteringsfasen kan bli tidskrävande där lösningar för att fastställa kapacitet mot vindlast blir dyra och kompIn the last ten years, the number of building permits applied for houses with timber frame structure has more than doubled. Today, there is no general requirement to establish horizontal capacity, but is something that can be demanded and that many structural engineers have occasionally experienced as problematic. The design phase can then be time-consuming, where solutions for determining capacit

In this thesis I use a feminist poststructuralist framework to analyse a policy document within the program Communities That Care, implemented in Malmö, Sweden. This urban security initiative makes the socialization of children and youth its object, and problematizes the social and built organisation of local areas as a root cause of urban insecurity. It creates spaces for intervention (CTC-areas)

Artificiell intelligens blir allt vanligare inom det kreativa området. AI uppvisar på olika sätt kreativitet genom att producera nya självständiga konstnärliga och litterära verk. För att AI ska kunna producera ett resultat måste ofta stora mängder data samlas in och analyseras i en process som kallas för datautvinning. Innan data kan användas i datautvinningsprocessen behöver den ofta förbehandlaArtificial intelligence is becoming more common in the creative sphere. AI is displaying creative abilities by producing new independent artistic and literary works. In order for AI to produce an output it requires vast amounts of data to be collected and analyzed in a process called data mining. Before the data can be used for data mining it often has to be altered and treated in a preprocess. If

Bridging the gap between understanding work-as-imagined and work-as-done in the perioperative work context represents an important aim of cognitive systems engineering research. Researching this context using a joint cognitive systems theoretical approach can reveal patterns of adaptation that have important implications for system design. Traditional research approaches by non-domain investigator

Humanitära interventioner, alltså militära ingripanden i en stat utan dess samtycke för att skydda befolkningens mänskliga rättigheter, har under de senaste årtiondena varit omdiskuterade. Interventionernas förespråkare menar att vi alla har en moralisk skyldighet att hjälpa människor i nöd. De som är kritiska till interventionerna menar att dessa innebär en kränkning av en av folkrättens hörnstenHumanitarian interventions, that is to say military interventions in a state, without its permission, to protect the population’s human rights, have during the past decades been controversial. The advocates of the interventions regard it as everyone’s duty to help humans in need. The interventions’ critics argue that the interventions are a violation of one cornerstone of the international law, th

In 2017, the Right of the Child UN convention will be legislated by Swedish authority; meaning that children’s rights will be statuary and a primary consideration at all civil levels. However, the universal definition of children’s rights opens for interesting questions regarding how a children’s standpoint is explained and expressed in different settings. The thesis hence seeks to place the inter

I franchiseutredningen inför införandet av lag (2006:484) om franchisegivares informationsplikt uttalas uttryckligen att i ett franchisesamarbete är en franchisetagare typiskt sett att betrakta som den svagare avtalsparten. I fråga om avtalstvister kan underlägsen ställning ha en väsentlig betydelse eftersom det finns lagregler som särskilt tar sikte på att skydda en underlägsen avtalspart, inte bFranchising is not a partnership which is expressly regulated by law in Sweden outside of the Franchise Disclosure Act of 2006. Some other partnerships on the other hand have dedicated regulations in legislation, for instance the Commercial Agents Act /Lag (1991:351) om handelsagentur and the Commissions Act / Kommissionslagen (2009:865) The current legislation is a disclosure law which obligates

CITIES SHOULD BE OPEN AND INCLUSIVE, say municipality officials in Sweden. So why are they not? One answer is norms. Invisible norms are constantly present in our daily lives and affect us by limiting possibilities and narrowing our perspectives and views of each other in ways that can lead to exclusion and discrimination. The norm-critical approach has become a commonly used method to make norms

In efforts to form resilience-building strategies and guide action across the globe, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (2015) outlined four priorities, the first of which is Understanding Disaster Risk. The purpose of this research is to delve into the concept of disaster risk and see how it is understood by the duty-bearing entity tasked with reducing disaster risk (the government)

The aim with this study has been to examine and to analyze the discourse of Rosengård in Swedish media. With the concept of discourse is meant here specific ways to speak about and to understand the world, or a part of it. In order to reach increased understanding regarding media presentations and constructions of Rosengård, I have done a study about how Rosengård has been presented in the Swedish

This study presents a spatial analysis of two regions in southern Iberia (Western Sierra Morena and Lands of Antequera) as a means to deepen our understanding of the Romanisation of the province Ulterior Baetica. Its theoretical foundations rely on the belief that human communities modify and adapt to their surroundings according to their changing needs (functional and symbolic, amongst many other
