Concrete has been frequently used as a buildning material in modern time and is today one of the most applied buildningmaterials. Since the demand of sustainability is getting bigger, more focus is put on the large carbon dioxide emissions that happens due to the cementmanufacturing. One way to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions is to replace a part of the Portlandcement with residues from other
Att föräldraskap ska kunna förenas med förvärvsarbete är en uttalad ambition både från den svenska lagstiftaren och från EU. I svensk rätt finns regler som syftar till att möjliggöra detta i diskrimineringslagen i form av regler om aktiva åtgärder, det vill säga arbetsgivarens förebyggande och främjande arbete, och i föräldraledighetslagen.

För att uppnå syftet kommer frågeställningar att besvara vilka rättsliga befogenheter arbetsgivaren har att genomföra kontrollåtgärder, hur GDPR begränsar genomförandet av kontrollåtgärder sam
I ljuset av samtida fynd inom evidensbaserad rekrytering och en uppdaterad polisprofil har Plikt- och prövningsverket reviderat urvalsprocessen till polisutbildningen. Till följd av revideringen är det okänt hur olika delar av urvalsprocessen bidrar till den samlade bedömningen av kandidaters lämplighet.

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att vidareutveckla en analysmodell inom deformationslokalisering för att få en bredare kunskap om det mekaniska beteendet hos ett geomaterial. Undersökning av lokala egenskaper hos ett jordprov kräver en fullfältsmätnin-gsteknik som i detta arbete är ultraljudstomografi. Anvädning av ultraljudtomografi inom ramarna av geomekanik har med tiden påvisat goda result

Bakgrund: Personer som vistas inom psykiatrisk slutenvård upplever ofta svårigheter att hantera sensoriska intryck, vilket kan leda till aktivitetsbegränsningar. Slutenvården präglas av metoder såsom tvångsvård och isolering, vilket medför ytterligare begränsningar kring delaktighet i aktivitet. Forskning visar dock att tvångsvården minskar vid användning av sensoriska interventioner och pati
