I dagens globala, digitala och postnationella samhälle verkar svenskämnet under andra villkor än tidigare. I artikeln beskrivs och diskuteras resultat från en litteraturdidaktisk studie som fokuserar på vad dessa förändrade villkor innebär för svenskämnets litteraturundervisning. Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur gymnasieelever samtalar om berättelser för att diskutera hur litteraturundervisning

Electric power grids have a limited capacity for safe and reliable transfer of power. Due to the ongoing large-scale expansion of variable renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, there is a growing need for rapid gridcapacity increase.This thesis explores methods for improving and expanding grid capacity through control of converter-interfaced energy resources, including wind and solar p

Care of older persons in community and primary care differs substantially between European countries, but most countries pursue the concept of “ageing in place”, meaning that most older people do not live in institutions. More and more older people are living alone. Relatives still play an important role in the care of older people, but it differs substantially within Europe, and will probably rem

Already in the 16th century, archbishop Mogens Madsen described the area around the castle on the steep escarpment overlooking the narrowest strait in Öresund, as a vanished Troy. The historian Ludvig Magnus Bååth, who wrote the first academic work on the history of Helsingborg, promoted this narrative of an original urban settlement on the top of the escarpment. The paramount argument for an urba

Universities have an important role in moving society towards a more sustainable future. However, this will require us to repurpose universities, reorienting and refocusing the different university domains (education, research, campus, and outreach) towards sustainability. The governance structures and processes used to embed sustainability into the activities and operations of the institution are

This article addresses the obstacle avoidance problem for setpoint stabilization tasks in complex dynamic 2-D environments that go beyond conventional scenes with isolated convex obstacles. A combined motion planner and controller is proposed that integrates the favorable convergence characteristics of closed-form motion planning techniques with the intuitive representation of system constraints t

We present calculations on the formation of 258Rf in the reaction 50Ti+208Pb within the Langevin framework. The initital stage after contact of the colliding nuclei is dominated by a drift in the center-of-mass direction, while the subsequent process of forming a compound nucleus is diffusion dominated. The probability for the composite system to diffuse over the inner saddle is obtained by perfor

Published in 1892, St. George Jackson Mivart’s remarkably original article ‘Happiness in Hell’ was placed on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum almost immediately. In his article, Mivart proposed a solution to the problem of hell whose core contention is that hell is horrible only from a heavenly point of view. From a this-worldly point of view, by contrast, hell is a place of breathtaking felicity.

Few issues in the field of labour and employment law are more controversial than the right to strike. Although the limits of the right are often the subject of heated debate, one thing is clear: the right to strike is not without limits.This anthology offers a comprehensive overview of restrictions on the right to strike at international and national levels and provides an insight into the differe

Assertions are one of the most useful automated techniques for checking program’s behaviour and hence have been used for different verification and validation tasks. We provide an overview of the last two decades of research involving “assertions” in software testing. Based on a term-based search, we filtered the inclusion of relevant papers and synthesised them with respect to the problem address

Statistics from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency show a sharp increase in the number of sick leave cases with the diagnoses Concussion, S06.0, and Postconcussional syndrome, F07.2, between the years 2010 and 2022. The reason for the increase has not been established and needs further investigation. One possible reason is that the acute phase treatment recommendations of individuals with mild tr

The aim of the study reported in this paper is to investigate how students understand continuity and differentiability during and after a calculus course. The students’ choices of representations, both claimed and acted, were also studied. The study is part of a larger study of four student groups taking a calculus course. 207 students answered a questionnaire during the course and of them, 11were

Since 1988, China's influence in Myanmar, both on a political and financial scale, has been relevant. Following the democratic bend that occurred in former Burma in 2011 and the ensuing opening to global markets, Beijing has partially lost its long-held privileges in the country. In order to maintain a solid geo-economic supremacy in Naypyitaw's internal affairs, since 2006, China has embarked upo

This chapter defines poverty, differentiates between absolute and relative poverty, and analyzes the criticisms of these concepts. Furthermore, the chapter analyzes the effects of poverty on child development according to developmental systems theory, listing direct, moderated, mediated, transactional, and community effects. Statistics on poverty for industrialized and developing countries are pro

To plan, design and build with diversity in mind is a complex process. While goals such as inclusion, participation and social sustainability may be present in the vision for a future product, service or environment, studies show that the initial vision isn’t always realized in the end result. There are still far too many products, services and environments that are hard to access or use for parts
