Many governmental actors have an operative responsibility in times of emergency. For this task they are becoming more and more dependent on IT systems. First interviews with some emergency managers show that traditional emergency management and risk analysis not always manages to capture this critical dependency. The exact dependence on IT systems in a crisis is often hard to predict, and
Three different biological extremes of irradiation of living organisms, both human and animal, have been investigated and are presented in this thesis. Central to the thesis is the concept of bystander effects of ionizing radiation, i.e. biological responses in a cell that are not caused by that cell receiving a direct hit by ionizing radiation but by the fact that a neighbouring cell has been hit
This dissertation aims to investigate the social situation at school for students that have migrated to Sweden during their last four years at compulsory school or during upper secondary school. The study investigates the social interaction between students with a special focus on the possibilities and hindrances for inclusion of the newcomer immigrant students in different groupings at school, an
In this presentation I discuss modern psychiatry, esp. neuropsychiatry, from the perspectives of philosophy and sociology of science. It is argued that there exist a number of tensions and ‘incommensurabilities’ in the field that are hard to overcome, thus giving rise to controversies. I separate four types of tensions, belonging to different ‘boxes.’ The first is called cognitive/internal, compri
In this paper, we approach a multiobjective Hp prob lem with several Hp constraints from the Banach duality point of view. The problem is reduced to an abstract norm minimization problem, and the dual problem is derived using the classical Banach re sult. It completes the primaldual pair which can be used to solve the problem numerically by nite dimensional approximations. While the approxima
