Bakgrund: I Sverige ökar psykisk ohälsa, vilket leder till större antal sjukskrivningar på grund av psykiska besvär. Psykisk ohälsa kan orsaka funktionsnedsättningar som försvårar möjligheter till aktivitetsutförandet. Därför finns det behov av effektiva rehabiliteringsmetoder som främjar aktivitetsutförandet för målgruppen. Trots att Socialstyrelsen nämner peer support som en positiv behandli

Denna uppsats avser undersöka didaktiska innehåll och perspektiv som finns i de moderna utvalda barnböckerna på dagens bokmarknad samt hur de presenteras i böckerna och marknadsföringen. Tillvägagångssättet för detta är genom en kvalitativ metod som består av en djupgående undersökning av paratexter och innehåll av de tre bästsäljande barnböckerna: Handbok för superhjältar (2017), Godnattsagor för

Reaching the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement not only requires ambitious goals from national governments, but also the active participation of local municipalities. It is in cities where climate actions need to be implemented to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reach the international and national climate goals. While the importance of cities and their participation in networks has been wel

The persistence and growth of the informal economy in South America is considered one of the most relevant problems in the region. However, studying informality across countries can be a complicated task due to the lack of homogeneous concepts and measurements. In this study, a database is constructed and harmonized with household survey data from 9 South American countries for 2019. This research

Vattenkraft är en omfattande nationell industri som förser Sverige med ungefär 45 % av dess energiproduktion (Molin 2016). Ett problem branschen brottas med är rödfärgade utfällningar som sätter igen mätinstrument och dränageledningar vid dammarna, så kallat. rödslam. Rödslammet produceras av järnoxiderande bakterier, FeOB, som oxiderar Fe(II) till Fe(III) (Hamrén 2013). Det partikulära järnet aHydropower is an extensive national industry which supplies Sweden with about 45 % of its total energy produced (Molin 2016). A problem which the industry is currently fighting is the presence of ochre-colored precipitations that clog vital measuring tools and drainage pipes at the dams, commonly called red mud. The red mud is produced by iron-oxidizing bacteria, FeOB, which oxidize Fe(II) to F

Ekosociala åtgärder i befintlig utemiljö - En studie som kartlägger Lunds kommuns samverkan med fastighetsägare Kommuner har fått ett allt större ansvar och större uppdrag när det kommer till hållbarhet. Kommuners hållbarhetsarbete och uppsatta mål är ofta sammankopplat med både nationella och globala avtal vilket kräver samverkan då kommuner ensamma inte besitter egen rådighet eller har råd Previous research indicate that social and ecological sustainability dimensions are handled separately within the work of goal fulfilment. Important key actors are having a hard time finding synergies between them which leads to a slower green and healthy transformation of cities. On the local level, this problem is connected to the decentralization of municipalities due to their growing assig

This study examines how norms about sexuality and gender are expressed in policies for housing supply in eight municipalities in the Swedish county Uppsala. Special attention is drawn to assumptions about cohabitation that are expressed in the policies. For this study, policy analysis is made of the municipalities' guidelines for housing supply based on Bacchi's (2009) WPR-method. The resu

Robust optimization plays a vital role in proton therapy treatment planning. A monoenergetic beam of protons has a finite range and delivers most of its dose at some specific depth in the patient. This allows the design of treatments that mainly damage the tumor and not any surrounding tissue. However, this property also makes proton therapy sensitive to uncertainties in the patient model used for

Industry 4.0 can be described as the next generation-factories that is characterised by putting a high demand for automation and flexible production lines. The proposed way to achieve this goal is through a large number of Industrial IoT devices(IIoT) in the factory, some having high availability- and low-latency requirements. This demands for a software that can monitor and manage the application

Playing games with reinforcement learning has for years been a target for research and has seen incredible breakthroughs in recent years. Reinforcement learning is a type of machine learning, which can be combined with the concept of deep learning, resulting in what is called deep reinforcement learning. The promise of deep reinforcement learning attracts businesses that aim to get an edge over tr

How dams affect invertebrates Getting your electricity from naturally produced energy sounds good, but this has its consequences too. To produce electricity from water, dams must be constructed, and these form a barrier between upstream and downstream areas. This stops our migrating species such as salmons, trout's, and eels and a decline in these economically valuable fish. Not only do salmo

This study looks at factors contributing to LA-MRSA prevalence in Danish pig farms. LA-MRSA is a pathogenic bacteria that are resistant to methicillin (penicillin) and tetracycline antibiotics found in livestock such as pigs, poultry and cattle. By using logistic regression analysis, this study investigates which factors that might have increased the likelihood of having a positive LA-MRSA result

Till följd av en ökad aktivitet inom internationella nätverk för städer har miljö- och klimatfrågor alltmer kommit att betraktas som karaktäristisk lokala i sin skala. Städer har i sin tur alltmer kommit att betraktas som betydande platser där innovativa lösningar på dessa frågor uppstår. Matfrågor, som tidigare har hanterats som landsbygds- och nationella frågor, har också funnit sin väg till denWith the rescaling of environmental issues through international city networks, cities are increasingly viewed as key sites where innovative solutions are formed. The issues concerning food, which predominantly has been viewed as rural and national issues, have also found its way onto the urban agenda. To provide further understanding of the rescaling process and the role which the city plays in t
