Mathematical optimization is becoming increasingly important for engineering in general and control in particular. This thesis deals with numerical methods, primarily direct collocation, and symbolic methods, primarily block-triangular ordering and tearing, for numerical solution of general dynamic optimization problems involving dynamical systems modeled by large-scale differential-algebraic equa
Svensk strafflagstiftning särbehandlar unga lagöverträdare mellan 15 och 21 år vid både straffmätning och i val av påföljd. I uppsatsen beskrivs hur dagens ordning har vuxit fram sedan införandet av strafflagen 1864: dels genom att redovisa förändringarna i den positiva rätten, dels genom att analysera de straffteoretiska motiven bakom förändringarna. Den historiska utvecklingen ligger sedan till Young offenders between the ages of 15 and 21 are treated differently compared to adults in the Swedish penal system.

COVID-19 was declared a world-wide pandemic in 2020, consequently affecting societies all around the globe. This thesis investigates one of these effects, namely how the pandemic affected occupant loads in office buildings and its subsequent effect on fire evacuation. Occupant load is one of many important factors when designing a building in regard to its fire safety, as it is a key component in
The aim of this paper was to from a social constructivistic perspective highlight the representations of homeless people and homelessness given in Swedish daily/evening papers. The questions it aimed to answer were: how are homelessness and homeless people represented in daily/evening papers? Do the daily and evening paper’s representations correspond with what researches and the National Swedish
Denna uppsats är ett examensarbete i juris kandidatprogrammet. Uppsatsen är skriven inom området familjerätt och är en komparation av svensk och norsk lagstiftning gällande vårdnad, barnets boende och bestämmanderätt. Detta är också uppsatsens syfte. I Sverige har frågan om att inkorporera barnkonventionen varit ett återkommande ämne för debatt. Det är därför intressant att jämföra med ett land soThis thesis is written in the area of family law and is a comparative study of Swedish and Norwegian legislation regarding custody, the child's residence and authority. In Sweden, the issue of incorporating the UNCRC has been a recurring topic of debate. It is therefore interesting to compare with a country that has chosen to incorporate the UNCRC as Norway has. Are countries different even wi
This study aims to examine the online afterlife of the slasher film Sleepaway Camp (1983, Robert Hiltzik) and how this afterlife relates to the queer elements in the film and its role as a cult film. By combining analytical perspectives and tools deriving from film studies and media studies, through applying film analysis as a method and using a netnographic approach, the fields complement each ot
In this article, some of the possibilities and obstacles involved in attaining stable peace in the Baltic Sea region are analysed. By stable peace is understood a relationship in which military conflict resolution has become unthinkable regardless of how serious a prospective conflict may become. It is argued that stable peace does not presently exist in the region as a whole, but that instead the
Studien är en del i det ordinarie kvalitetsarbetet på en psykiatrisk öppenvårdsenhet. Syftet var att undersöka huruvida den behandling som erbjuds individer med emotionellt instabilt personlighetssyndrom (EIPS), Mentaliseringsbaserad terapi (MBT), har någon inverkan på patienternas psykiska hälsa/ohälsa. För att göra detta användes Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measures (CORE-O
The purpose of this paper is to present some reflections on the relationship between the production of contemporary art and the function of national identities in our Scandinavian and Baltic countries. The main assumption of the paper is a non-essentialist one: the author assumes that national identity, like art and the context(s) of the art-world(s), is something which is produced and socially co
The thesis contributes to the debate of an emerging European strategic culture on the use of force. This is highly relevant in order to understand the future development of the military operations within the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). In order to be able to analyse the motivations of the following operations: Concordia, EUFOR DR Congo and Atalanta, the research builds on the constr
The present work is an interdisciplinary and theoretical study on the topic of identity and the development of collective consciousness; an investigation of the ways in which people feel about and operate with their identities today. Identities are seen as a process circumscribed by the continuous struggle between the individual need for self-fulfillment and the demands of social structure and col
This work shows a contribution to a long-term study of lead in smelter workers where the objectives were to assess the historical lead (Pb) exposure and to study the relationships between lead concentrations in finger bone (Bone-Pb), whole blood (B-Pb), plasma (P-Pb), urine (U-Pb) and the duration of employment in workers at a secondary lead smelter. Moreover, results were compared with previous s
