Det övergripande temat i denna avhandling är hur normbrott (breaches) kan användas för att belysa blinda fläckar inom designfältet, samt hantera och förvalta den potentiella friktionen som uppstår på ett konstruktivt sätt. Forskningsprojektet som presenteras här består av två delar: Bling?-studierna, som redovisas i licentiatavhandlingen, bifogad i sin helhet i Appendix 2 och Breach!-studierna.I BThe overall theme of this thesis is norm deviations, i.e. breaches, as an approach to illuminating blindspots in the design field in order to handle potential friction that arises constructively. The research presented consisted of two parts: the Bling? studies, which are part of the licentiate thesis, attached in Appendix 2, and the Breach! studies.The Bling? studies present how planned provocati

Policy-makers, the medical industry and researchers are demonstrating a keen interest in the potential of large registries of patient data, both nationally and internationally. The registries offer promising ways to measure and develop operational quality within health and medical care services. As a result of certain favourable patient data regula- tions and government funding, the development of

Conventional wastewater treatment plants are designed for treating manmade wastewater (e.g., from households and industries) and to protect the environment (e.g., receiving water bodies) and humans from adverse effects.The objective of this work was to investigate the feasibility of treating municipal wastewater without a biological treatment step by applying different separation processes, such a

Stormwater management is essential for preventing urban flooding and protecting water quality in receiving bodies. Traditionally viewed as a nuisance, stormwater is now being re-evaluated as an alternative resource for non-potable uses such as toilet flushing and irrigation through rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS). Within the European Union's Horizon 2020 project REWAISE, pilot studies with cer

As globalisation of economy is developing, the value of “human capital” was discovered as one of the solid basics for sustainable entrepreneurship in a knowledge-based society. Accordingly, the relevance of Participation and Empowerment (P&E) among management approaches has increased significantly. In this anthology, 26 authors from six European countries, networking in the “International Soci

A shipyards' right of retention is somewhat of a phenomenon, enabling the shipyard to retain property and secure credit accordingly. The right of retention has a character that is similar to a so-called legal lien. The current regulation in the MC governing retention has its roots in the 1967 Convention on Maritime Liens and Mortgages. There are several kinds of retention rights. The one prima

I media såväl som i mer forskningsbaserade sammanhang förs en debatt om huruvida barnen i Sverige mår sämre psykiskt idag. Denna studie närmade sig frågan utifrån aspekten självkänsla och utgick ifrån hypotesen att barns och ungdomars självkänsla hade försämrats år 2010 jämfört med år 1981-83. I studien deltog 235 pojkar och flickor från årskurs tre, fem och sju genom att fylla i självskattningsf

Vindkraft är en förnyelsebar energikälla som ligger i tiden och är den energikälla som idag växer snabbast i världen. Eftersom Sverige har stor utbredning och långa kustpartier finns det goda möjligheter att utnyttja vind som energikälla. Sveriges riksdag har därför satt ett mål att ungefär tiodubbla energiutvinningen från vindkraft till år 2015. Den generella uppfattningen om vindkraft i Sverige
