Processability Theory (PT) is a well-established theoretical framework within the field of Second Language Acquisition, which describes the development of acquiring language as a process of acquiring procedural skills. The procedural skills are necessary for the learner being able to process different grammatical structures of the target language, and these are obtained by the learner through avai
As online shopping continues to increase in popularity, more and more pressure is put on businesses to reevaluate which of their services that can be sold from a web- site. While the telecom market for businesses still only use expert salespersons to describe and put a price on their services, innovative companies such as Telavox are looking into new ways of exposing more of their information onli
The main purpose of this thesis is to explore how to deal with an industrial heritage in both urban and more detailed, architectural scale. The project location indicates another significant key issue - waterfront identity, which is essential for the city of Amsterdam. This thesis proposes a complex masterplan for the area, which provides diverse housing options, varied public spaces of different
Jamaica has struggled to curb the number of road crash fatalities, having had on average 25 fatalities per month between 2010 and 2014, while many more persons have been injured. The causes of crashes are multidimensional, however this study focused on understanding one aspect of reducing crashes - safe road design. The aim of this study was to determine the relationships between road design chara
In this thesis methods for finding state space representation parameters for low inductance DC-motors are found and evaluated. Theory previously tested in simulations is verified experimentally and improved upon for both linear behaviour when the motor is controlled with a DC-source as well as nonlinear behaviour when controlled with pulse width modulation (PWM). For the linear behaviour a linear
Ohälsosamma matvanor har visat sig påverka skolprestationer och bidra till läs- och skrivsvå- righeter hos barn och ungdomar. Det bidrar också till en rad olika folksjukdomar som visas först i vuxen ålder. Med hjälp av sin kompetens i folkhälsa kan skolsköterskan ge elever kun- skaper om levnadsvanor och faktorer som främjar en god hälsa. Syftet med studien var att be- skriva skolsköterskans arbet
Socialstyrelsen har tagit fram kvalitetsindikatorer som belyser viktiga delar av den palliativa vården. Syftet med studien var att undersöka kvaliteten på den palliativa vården utifrån Socialstyrelsens kvalitetsindikatorer för god palliativ vård för äldre personer i särskilt boende och hemsjukvård i Skåne 2016, samt undersöka om det finns skillnader av kvaliteten på särskilt boende jämfört med per
The situation of unaccompanied asylum-seeking children is nowadays a global issue affecting an important number of children all over the world. Nevertheless, the special needs and vulnerabilities of this group of children have not yet been effectively assessed. In fact, unaccompanied minors constitute the most vulnerable group among all asylum seekers and face human rights’ violations continuously
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka sjuksköterskornas erfarenhet av ensamhet hos äldre inom primärvården (vårdcentral). Studien är en empirisk studie där en kvalitativ innehållsanalys har tillämpats. Elva registrerade sjuksköterskor / distriktssköterskor rekryterades och intervjuades. Resultaten visar att sjuksköterskorna identifierade ensamhet genom subjektiva och intuitiva tolkningar. Sjuk
Abstrakt Bakgrund: Sedan i juni 2016 har distriktssköterskor och barnsjuksköterskor som arbetar inom barnhälsovården behörighet att självständigt ordinera kompletterande vaccinationer som ingår i det allmänna vaccinationsprogrammet. Syfte: Att belysa BVC-sjuksköterskors perspektiv av utmaningar gällande vaccinationer av barn från olika kulturer inom barnhälsovården. Metod: En kvalitativ design me
Rendering and simulating an ocean as realistic as possible is a desirable effect to many outdoor scenes of movies and video games. The difficulties with simulating a plausible ocean arise from the complex behavior and scaling of the ocean waves. The length of the waves may vary from being just a few millimeters up to several kilo meters long and the waves can for instance break and line up with th
Det finns åtta dämmen och tre aktiva vattenkraftverk i Kävlingeån, som är ett av Skånes största samt fiskrikaste vattendrag. Då dämmena segmenterar ån skapar detta miljöproblem; organismer förhindras migration för bland annat fortplantning och födosök. Arter såsom öring och den akut hotade ålen lever i Kävlingeån och är beroende av framkomliga vandringsvägar samt lekplatser. Syftet med denna studi
Författare: Sanna Andersson Titel: Det mänskliga arvet - En undersökning av det kulturella och symboliska kapitalets påverkan på individer inom högskola och universitet Kandidatuppsats: SOCK04, 15 hp Handledare: Axel Fredholm Sociologiska institutionen, höstterminen 2016 I tidigare forskning om klass och klassresor framkommer det att personer utan tillträde inom det akademiska fältet i stor utsträ
Zebrafish larvae action sequences were analysed in order to compare and profile several different drugs for therapeutic purposes in neurological diseases. Healthy and neurological disease induced larvae were treated with different drugs and drug dosages and their movement recorded into action sequences. Action sequences were categorized into eight different turn types and organised in swim bouts.
Usually, high acquisition premia are considered to be a proxy for aggressive management style, extremely risk-taking behavior and poor managerial decision making and ultimately failure. In the case of China, it is questionable if this assumption can hold true. In general, cross border M&A failure rate is high and did not vary significantly over time. A study by KPMG found that only 17% of cros
The aim of this study is to examine the interrelationship between contemporary French luxury fashion and political struggles by examining the garments with explicit political statements from the ready-to-wear spring/summer 2015 Chanel runway, the ready-to-wear spring/summer 2017 Dior runway and the menswear fall/winter 2017 Balenciaga runway analysis as to discern the possible reasons and effects
Mangroveskogens ekosystem är ett tropiskt kustsamhälle bebott av organismer anpassade till den stressfulla miljön i tidvattenszonen. Mangroveskogen har på senare år blivit erkänd för de viktiga ekosystemtjänsterna den erbjuder. Trotts detta hotas den av mänskliga aktiviteter, och en tredjedel av världens naturliga mangroveskog uppskattas redan ha gått förlorad. Ansträngningar har gjorts för att beThe mangrove ecosystem is a tropical coastal community inhabited by organisms adapted to the stressful environment of the tidal zone. Mangrove ecosystems has in recent years been noted for the important ecosystem services they offer. Still, they are threatened by anthropogenic activities and it has been estimated that a third of the world’s natural mangrove cover has already been lost. Efforts hav
Topology optimization answers the question "How to place the material within a prescribed design domain in order to obtain the best structural performance? " and the design obtained is usually complex. Additive manufacturing comes with a well known design freedom and the design provided by topology optimization can be manufactured without as many constraints as conventional manufacturing
