A kinematic hardening plasticity model valid for finite strains is presented. The model is based on the well-known multiplicative split of the deformation gradient into an elastic and a plastic part. The basic ingredient in the formulation is the introduction of locally defined configurations - center configurations- which are associated with deformation gradients that are used to characterize the

In recent years, the ability to make available, locate and access copyright protected content over the Internet has increased considerably. Some business models are directly aimed at linking or locating content already made available by other services. Such business models may create value for end users by making it easier to locate and find content on the Internet, but at the same time, they may

The entry tells the history of Shakespeare in the Scandinavian countries from the late 18th century to 2014.

In this paper we describe field investigations of leachate recirculation at a bioreactor landfill using geoelectrical imagining technique (i.e., electrical resistivity) combined with a tracer test. The use of geoelectrical imagining techniques is an established practice for environmental investigations and monitoring of various landfill processes and in recent years also the bioreactor landfill co

The TRE3 research project focuses on the development of a new and innovative timber frame wall modulus for emergency housing facilities. The wall modulus, in this paper referred to as Hybrid Timber Frame (HTF) wall system, is an evolution of the traditional Light-Frame Timber (LFT) structural systems and combines the advantages and some peculiar aspects of lightweight structures to the potentialit

This paper discusses which freehand drawing skills a designer needs in the 21st century and why not more people are using sketching as a creative tool. Are design schools teaching the adequate skills needed today? In the past 5-10 years focus has shifted from product design to experience design and the skills needed to make high end drawings might not be needed to the same extent. 3D computational

This paper reports a detailed study of techniques for identifying boosted, hadronically decaying W bosons using 20.3 fb (Formula presented.) of proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy (Formula presented.). A range of techniques for optimising the signal jet mass resolution are combined with various jet substructure variables. The results o

Patterned arrays of self-assisted GaP nanowires (NWs) were grown on a Si substrate by gas source molecular beam epitaxy using various V/III flux ratios from 1-6, and various pitches from 360-1000 nm. As the V/III flux ratio was increased from 1-6, the NWs showed a change in morphology from outward tapering to straight, and eventually to inward tapering. The morphologies of the self-assisted GaP NW

The purpose of this study is to examine how well different financial ratios can predict bankruptcy across industries and time. The study also examine whether including industry differences in a prediction model can increase its accuracy. Bankruptcy prediction models were estimated using logistic regression for each year between 2006 and 2011, with and without interaction terms accounting for indu

Forskning inom elektromagnetiska fenomen kan betraktas som en av de viktigaste vetenskapliga fälten, då en betydande del av modern teknologi och infrastruktur bygger på principer som har utvecklats från detta område. Att förstå det fysikaliska ursprunget av magnetiska effekter och deras tillämpningar är av stort intresse inom fasta tillståndets fysik. På senare år har teoretisk forskning förutspAltermagnetism is an emerging field within condensed matter physics. This new magnetic phase was first theoretically considered and later experimentally observed. The physical properties of altermagnets are speculated to make them appealing candidates for applications within fields such as spintronics and superconductivity. To determine which materials exhibit altermagnetism, numerical considerati

Kokvattenreaktorerna Barsebäck 1 och 2 togs i drift 1975 respektive 1977 och är sedan 1999 och 2005 avstängda. Nu är kärnkraftverket under avveckling och nedmontering, som innebär att alla byggnader som hör till Barsebäcksverket ska tömmas och rivas, vilket är en omfattande process. Det radioaktiva avfallet, så som använt kärnbränsle, ska förvaras i det svenska slutförvaret när det står färdigt, m

This study investigates deep learning approaches for automated land use classification from high-resolution remote sensing imagery, comparing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Vision Transformer (ViT) architectures. Eight semantic segmentation models were evaluated on the HRSCD dataset containing 291 aerial image pairs (0.5m resolution) with four land use classes: building, agricultural, fore

This thesis employs deep reinforcement learning, a branch of machine learning, to carry out robotic tasks. The objective centers around teaching an agent controlling a seven-axis robot arm with a gripper tool, to complete an object isolation task. For this task, a robot manipulates a cluttered environment in such a way that a predetermined target object becomes isolated. Sub-tasks were developed t

Cancer cell detection by particle sorting systems is a very challenging field which could help to discover cancers at an earlier stage. Acoustophoresis used as a particle sorting system is based on the difference between the acoustic properties of particles and the medium. Using a standing acoustic wave, the particles with the equivalent acoustic properties are focused at the same point in the cha

The purpose of this study is to gain an understanding of how Skanör-Falsterbo’s urban medieval landscape can show what importance they held as market towns and what is left of it in the landscape today. This has been done using a phenomenological theory together with social structuralism and spatial theory. I have conducted this study using antiquities, historical maps and written sources, tog

I Sverige har ungefär vart tionde barn någon gång blivit utsatt för att bevittna våld mellan sina föräldrar. Våld i nära relationer och barns bevittnande av familjevåld utgör således ett samhällsproblem. Den 1 juli 2021 infördes en ny straffbestämmelse om barnfridsbrott i 4 kap. 3 § BrB. Barnfridsbrottet innebär att det numera är straffbart att utsätta ett barn för att bevittna våld eller andra övIn Sweden, approximately one in ten children has at some point been exposed to witnessing violence between their parents. Domestic violence and children´s witnessing of such can thus be said to constitute a social problem. On July 1, 2021, a new penalty provision of violation of a child´s integrity was introduced into Chapter 4. Section 3. Of the Swedish Criminal Code. The crime means that it is n

I dette studie har jeg anvendt logbogsnotationer og simple indspildninger til at analysere 20 øvetilfælde, hvor jeg har undersøgt og afprøvet forskellige øvestrategier for at overkomme udfordringerne ved simultan violinspil og sang (violinsang). Gennem analyse af logbog og interview med musikere som har erfaring på dette område, har jeg opnået en større forståelse for mine egne tekniske udford

Sniffing out friends and foes: Bark beetle larvae and fungal scents. A tiny but destructive force is threatening Eurasian forest habitats – the Eurasian spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus. The larvae of this beetle species develop under the bark of conifers and feed on tree tissue. This leads to tree death and thus widespread devastation in wooded landscapes. The beetles live in partnership wit

This study explores similarities and differences between three spy cases, the American cases Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen during the Cold War era and the recent Swedish case Peyman Kia. Based on a psychological theory that predicts espionage by three essential factors; a dysfunctional personality, a state of crisis and ease of opportunity, these factors are applied to the cases and explores the

Eco-social policy seeks to provision welfare by upholding ‘social floors’ while operating within ‘ecological ceilings’, de-centering economic growth as a narrative of development. Advocates explore the role of policies integrating ecological and social goals in providing sustainable welfare. By focusing on Sweden, this thesis aims to explore the role of taxation as a tool for fostering change by a
