Arson in school buildings is a big problem in Sweden. The most severe and costly fires start on the outside of the building. In one-storey building the fire can easily spread to the attic space through ventilation openings in the eaves. In this paper, research conducted in regard to detection of external fires in school buildings is presented. A maximum temperature linear detector, a differential
A spectral analysis of the acceleration wave problem in general elasto-plastic materials is carried out, whereby explicit expressions for the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are obtained. In case of nonassociated plasticity, all eigenvectors become nonorthogonal and one eigenvalue always remains unchanged and equal to the shear modulus. For a very broad class of nonassociated plasticity models, it is
The conclusions in this paper are drawn from the results of four empirical studies. It has been important to take an empirical approach in the investigation, concerned with internationalization of higher education, since even though plentiful of studies over the last decades have been concerned with internationalization in/of higher education, it has not been from the perspectives from the teacher
Highly excited P and D states in 87 Rb were examined using a two-step excitation procedure. A conventional rf lamp and a CW dye laser were used for the first and second step, respectively. The following results for the magnetic dipole interaction constant a , the electric quadrupole interaction constant b , the Landé g J factor, and the tensor polarizability α 2 were obtained in level-crossing an
The 19th century rise of history as an academic discipline set new standards for acceptable methods of writing history. This greatly influenced the opinions historians held of older historical works, such as the Historia de omnibus Gothorum Sueonumque regibus (History of all the Kings of the Goths and the Swedes) by the Swedish archbishop Johannes Magnus (1488-1544). The work has been criticised f
Popular Abstract in Swedish Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) bildade regering i Bolivia 2006 med Evo Morales på presidentposten, framburna av folkliga protester mot tidigare, nyliberala regimer. Morales beskrivs ofta som landets första president med bakgrund i ursprungsbefolkningen. Hans regering utlovade en radikal omställning av den nationella politiken och tillkännagav att Bolivia nu är en "pluriEvo Morales and the Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) took office in Bolivia in 2006, riding on the wave of fierce popular protests against previous, neoliberal regimes. Morales was depicted as the country’s first indigenous president. His government promised a radical transformation of national politics and rebranded Bolivia as a “plurinational state”. Under MAS, indigenous subjectivity has moved fr
Keynote paper The point of departure for this lecture lies in the insight that tourism research is uniquely positioned at the juncture of applied and scholarly research. Drawing upon work I have conducted in the realms tourism and leisure study, the lecture strives to problematize the practice of ethnography as a method and raise questions concerning the opportunity research in the fields of tour
