Finland, an example country, used to be a peripheral country that has only in the past decades transformed into an economy where innovation, technology and education have gained important roles. Given this ec

Detta arbete handlar om barnets möjligheter att komma till tals i situationer som regleras av den civilrättsliga lagstiftningen genom föräldrabalkens sjätte kapitel och av den socialrättsliga lagstiftningen genom lagen (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga. Sverige har sedan ingåendet av barnkonventionen 1990 fått göra successiva förändringar av den rådande lagstiftningen då skyddskThis paper focuses on the opportunity of a child to be heard in matters regulated by the Parental Code chapter 6, and by the Care of the Young Law. Since the ratification of the UNCRC in 1990 Sweden has been forced to make continuous judicial changes in order to meet the requirements set forth by the convention. The last 23 years of alterations in Swedish regulations have had major positive impact
This report aims to produce a summarized overview of available knowledge about lightweight joists and their behavior when subjected to fire. It also aims to analyze the possible impact of lightweight joists on the fire departments ability to handle a residential fire. The report is based mostly on literature studies on both foreign and domestic sources but discussed and analyzed from a Swedish per
Sammanfattning Denna uppsats redogör för barnpornografibrottets barndefinitions utveckling från dess tillkomst och fram till 2010 års reform. Definitionen av barn och ett införande av en bestämd 18 års gräns har varit föremål för diskussion i tidigare förarbeten. Pornografin avkriminaliserades i Sverige i början av 1970 talet och tanken var att endast nödvändiga inskränkningar skulle få göras i Summary This paper describes the childpornographyoffense´s child definition and its development from its inception and until the reform 2010. The definition of children and the introduction of a fixed18-year limit have been discussed in earlier legislative history. Pornography was decriminalized in Sweden in the early 1970s, and the idea was that only necessary restrictions would have to be made
Earlier studies have shown that both gender and masculine or feminine traits affects judgement about a person's qualities. This study builds upon earlier research and investigates the relation between voice and appearance with respect to gender based stereotype judgement, by letting participants listen to and then rate two of totally eight different digital characters, four female and four mal
Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva den situation de ensamkommande asylsökande barnen befinner sig i då de anländer till Sverige och hur denna kan ses som en riskfaktor, med fokus på separationen från familj och/eller släkt. Vidare är avsikten att undersöka hur familjehemmet i Sverige kan vara en skyddande faktor genom att vara en källa till trygghet och socialt stöd. Bakgrunden till val av ä
After a fifty yearlong period of political hostility, Taiwan perceived the fall of Soviet Union as an opportunity to establish Russia as a prime trade partner. Given Russia’s relationship with China and its importance in promoting Taiwan’s international status, the road was paved with many obstacles. Scholars argue that Taiwan deploys its trade diplomacy in order to promote its national awareness
Problem/Bakgrund: Barn till psykiskt sjuka föräldrar är en grupp, som för några år sedan det sällan talades om. Föräldrar blev psykotiska, gjorde självmordsförsök, hämtades av polis, blev inskrivna och lika fort utskrivna. Barnen fanns där men märktes knappt, ingen frågade om deras egna upplevelser eller mående. Ingen berättade vad som hade hänt eller vad som skulle ske. Utvecklingen har gått fra
Inspired by the methodology of Galí and Gertler (1999) and Lindé (2005) and the seemingly fierce debate over the most appropriate econometric approach to study inflation dynamics, the new-Keynesian hybrid Phillips curve has been conducted with Swedish sample data and estimated with the general method of moment (GMM) and the full information maximum likelihood (FIML) estimators. GMM generated estim
The computational power of hand held devices have increased significantly during the last years. Today it is possible to run advanced finite element simulations on these devices. This opens up new possibilities for creating software for the early design stage and for educational purposes. Touch devices such as the iPad has become increasingly popular, and the number of users are growing every day.
This report is the result of a masters project conducted at the Division of Structural Mechanics at Lund University. The purpose of the project was to integrate a FEM mesh generator with the Python version of the code library CALFEM and improve the mesh visualisation capabilities of said library. This report describes how the mesher software Gmsh and the visualisation library visvis were integrate
In a European collaborative research project a timber-glass shear wall element has been developed. This consists of a 10×1200×2400 mm thick glass pane of standard float glass with an LVL-frame adhesively bonded to the glass along its perimeter .In previous research several laboratory tests of these types of shear walls were performed. The tests, performed for various modes of loading, indicated th
Denna studie fokuserar på hur symboliskt våld utövas mot och upplevs av personer med ett kriminellt förflutet. Syftet var att undersöka under vilka former symboliskt våld verkar och effekterna det har på dem som utsätts. Studien baseras på teoretiska verk av Bourdieu, Goffman, Heidegren och Žižek. För att samla in data använde vi oss av kvalitativ metod i form av intervjuer med sju individer som s
In this thesis we look at data where sedated patients have been pinpricked with a needle during an Auditory Brainstem Response recording. By looking at this data set with different statistical methods some butterfly pattern emerged and peaks appeared in the spectrum around the time where the needle pinpricking should have occurred. With this results a model was developed and evaluated. Future inve
The aim of this study was to describe how families with children, having cognitive disabilities, interacted with portable electronic assistive devices in their daily life. More specifically, its aim was to study the needs for families when they decided to use electronic assistive devices as assistance in their everyday lives, what everyday function they added value to and if they had the same mean
