Considerando que os dois autores ocupam lugar de destaque nas literaturas brasileira e italiana, respectivamente, e que ambos observaram e vivenciaram transforma??es marcantes em suas respectivas sociedades, o Brasil do per?odo imperial, e a It?lia p?s risorgimentale, verificaremos como os dois, a seu modo, comp?em uma arte liter?ria na qual ? poss?vel alcan?ar a consci?ncia social e moral de cada um. Procuramos alcan?ar, ainda, o sentimento de inquieta??o, de ansiedade, de medo, de d?vida, de interesse, de vaidade, de ambi??o, enfim, o desejo de ser das personagens, as quais representam o homem de final do s?culo XIX e in?cio do s?culo XX, com caracter?sticas que apontam para o sujeito de identidade fragmentada, em busca de um lugar no mundo, mesmo que para conseguir tal lugar renuncie sua ess?ncia e adote uma apar?ncia correspondente a todas as imagens que a sociedade lhe atribui. Os protagonistas Br?s Cubas e Vitangelo Moscarda nos conduzir?o pelas trilhas da consci?ncia de cada um, as quais demarcam a fronteira da ess?ncia em desarmonia com a apar?ncia. Cr?ticos como Roberto Schwarz, Alfredo Bosi, Leone de Castris, entre outros, nos deram o amparo te?rico necess?rio para um estudo comparado entre dois autores que, como poucos, souberam expressar, por meio de suas personagens, a dif?cil rela??o do homem consigo mesmo e com o universo que o circunda. / This thesis proposes to identify possible similarities and differences between the novels Mem?rias P?stumas de Br?s Cubas (1981), by the Brazilian writer Machado de Assis, and Uno, Nessuno and Centomila (1926), by the Italian writer Luigi Pirandello. The two authors have prominent respective places in Brazilian and Italian literature, and both observed and experienced remarkable changes in their societies Brazil's imperial period, and Italy?s post-risorgimentale period. We will verify how each author composes a piece o literary art in which it is possible to achieve the authors?social and moral conscience. We will also attempt to achieve thefeelings of restlessness, anxiety, fear, doubt, interest, vanity, ambition: in summary, the desire of the characters to exist, which represents man at the end of the nineteenth century and commencement of thetwentieth century. The characters? features point to fragmented identity, in search of a place in the world, even if he needs to renounce his essence and to adopt a corresponding appearance to all images that society assigns to him in order to achieve such a place. The protagonists, Br?s Cubas and Vitangelo Moscarda, will lead us along the paths of consciousness of each, which demarcate the border between essence and appearance. Critics such as Roberto Schwarz, Alfredo Bosi, Leone Castris, among others, will give us the theoretical support necessary for a comparative study between the two authors, whom, like few others, knew how to express, through their characters, the difficult relationship of man with himself and with the universe at large.

L’ESS porte en elle des promesses de développement et d'émancipation citoyenne à l'échelle des territoires et des sociétés (Eynaud 2015 ; Laville, 2016 ; Laville, Young et Eynaud, 2015 ; Valéau, 2016). L'objectif général de cette thèse est de tenter de mieux comprendre ce qui permet le changement d'échelle de l'économie sociale et solidaire (ESS), c'est-à-dire l'institutionnalisation de logiques économiques, sociales et solidaires pérennes portée par les acteurs agissant en réseau. Suivant une démarche qualitative de type théorisation ancrée, sur la base de l'approche établie par Desjeux (2004), nous avons procédé à une analyse chronologique du cas de La Réunion de 2000 à 2016. L'analyse des articulations entre lesniveaux macro, micro et méso socioéconomiques nous a permis de mettre en évidence les changements dans les relations entre ces échelles et le caractère contingent des possibilités d'action institutionnelle en réseau. / SSE bears the promise of socioeconomic development and citizen emancipation at the territorial and societal level (Eynaud 2015; Laville, 2016; Laville, Young & Eynaud, 2015; Valéau, 2016). The overall objective of this dissertation is to better understand the factors that allow SSE to operate on a larger scale, i.e. institutionalizing sustainable social and solidarity rationality promoted by actors gathering in networks. Based on qualitative grounded theory, drawing on Dejeux’s (2004) method, we provide a chronological analysis of the case of Reunion from 2000 to 2016. The examination of the articulation between macro, micro and meso socioeconomic levels highlights the changes in in the relationships between them and the contingent nature of the possibility for networks to take institutional action.

Introduktion: En viktig del i vårdprocessen är kommunikation. Därför är det viktigt att den fungerar tillfredställande. En mycket bra och beprövad kommunikationsmodell är SBAR. Ambulanssjuksköterskan ska kunna överrapportera på ett adekvat och patientsäkert sätt. Triage används för att få ett bra flöde på akutmottagningen och patientsäker vård. Syfte: Att kartlägga hur ambulanspersonalen överrapporterar patienten till akutens personal. Samt hur ambulanspersonalens triage används av akutens personal. Metod: En observationsstudie med kvantitativ design samt kompletterande enkät av kvalitativ karaktär där personalen med fritext kunde beskriva vad som var positivt samt negativt med överrapporteringen den hade en kvalitativ karaktär. Resultat: i resultatet framkom det i samtliga observationerna att det finns en klar och tydligfältdiagnos samt att bakgrund finns med. Vitalparametrar som rapporteras varierar från inga alls till korrekt rapporterat. Att ge en rekommendation till mottagande enhet sker sällan. När det gäller ESS så rapporterades det i mindre än hälften av fallen. Arbetets betydelse: Det finns en ganska stor förbättringspotential när det gäller överrapportering från ambulanspersonal vad gällande SBAR och hur den ska användas. Samtidigt en förbättringspotential från akutens personal gällande att vara intresserad av vad ambulanspersonalen överrapporterar.

In this study we researched varying aspects of using flashcards to increase vocabulary, these aspects include method variations, as well as variations to the flashcards themselves. Through this text it is conveyed that vocabulary is important for communication. The aim of this research is to reflect upon the various flashcards variances and understand their effects upon vocabulary teaching. To research both writers searched for relevant articles together, these articles were agreed upon together. Each researcher read and summerized half of the articles each. Afterwards, the other researcher read the same article and inspected the written summaries. The results of the various research papers generally agreed with theories of learning. Multiple different learning theories were used as basis for this research, and the findings of the research articles are overall in agreement with these theories. The different drill methods, altering the flashcards themselves and the introduction of digital flashcards were found to be in agreement with the relevant learning theories. The different flashcard alternatives were found to have positive results, however these positive results were in different aspects. Some results found the students had larger vocabulary, some other results found the students had longer retention of the vocabulary learnt, and some had increased motivation.

I en värld präglad av eskalerande miljöutmaningar, såsom klimatförändringar och förlusten av biologisk mångfald, är det av väsentlig betydelse att förstå kopplingen mellan upplevd politisk delaktighet och individens ansvar för miljön. Trots dessa påtagliga utmaningar finns det en brist på svensk kvantitativ forskning på temat. Forskningsområdet har tidigare undersökts kvalitativt eller genom kvantitativ metod med fokus på länder i Europa eller i världen i stort. Studien bidrar till att fylla en kunskapslucka genom att kvantitativ undersöka ett representativt urval av svenska individer, för att avgöra om upplevd politisk delaktighet har en effekt på individens ansvarskänsla för miljön på individnivå i en svensk kontext. Datamaterialet som används i studien är ESS omgång 8 från år 2016 där det angivna året hade kärnämnen som välfärdsattityder, klimatförändringar och energiförbrukning. För att få en djupare förståelse för fenomenet kontrollerades även effekten av kön, oro för klimatet, ålder, antal utbildningsår samt politisk tillhörighet på svenskars ansvarskänsla för miljön. Studien resulterade i ett positivt samband mellan upplevd delaktighet och ansvarskänsla för miljön, oro för klimatet uppvisade en positiv effekt på ansvarskänslan för miljön, och kvinnor kände ett högre ansvar för miljön jämfört med män. Teorin deliberativ demokrati indikerar vikten av att inkludera medborgarna i politiska processer för att främja ett ökat miljöengagemang på individnivå och Foucaults begrepp biomakt är ett användbart verktyg för att förstå internaliserade beteenden som staten diskret formar.

Previous studies about the welfare state and fear of crime have suggested that a generous welfare state safeguard against fear of crime and that this is especially true for victims of crime. This study delves further into these ideas but assesses the role of welfare attitudes and victimisation on fear of crime. The aim is to investigate whether welfare attitudes, including support for government responsibility toward welfare services and income redistribution, are associated with fear of crime across Europe. Additionally, it aims to investigate whether there are differences in fear of crime between victims and non-victims at different levels of support for the welfare state. A multilevel ordered logistic model is used to assess this, with ESS data on the individual level and data from different official sources on the country level. The study found no or only slight evidence of a correlation between welfare attitudes and fear of crime. Support for welfare services was not associated with fear of crime. However, support for income redistribution increases fear of crime slightly. In terms of victimisation, prior victimisation increased the probability of fear of crime, which was consistent in the level of support for welfare services but differed in the level of support for income redistribution. Among victims, there was a higher probability of fear of crime at higher levels of support for income redistribution, and a lower probability of fear of crime at lower levels of support.

During the Cold War, the largest threat against the countries of Europe was an enemy attack or invasion. After the end of the Cold War, the strategic environment changed drastically. The impending threat of a large-scale war was gone and the countries of Europe approached each other in the hope of cooperation with mutual benefits. As the old threat faded away, new threats which were significantly more dynamic and complex emerged. Threats such as terrorism, proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, organised crime over the boarders and state failure became more apparent, both, in Europe and in its proximity. Irregular conflicts as in Kosovo and Afghanistan showed an assortment of the various threats. This complexity poses as a big challenge for the officers of today and tomorrow. It is of vital importance that both current and future military commanders are well educated in the complexities of their line of work. The first step to achieve this is ensuring that adequate education in the subject is given. In this thesis, the author researches to what extent the Swedish National Defence College and the Theresan Military Academy choose to educate their officer cadets regarding the new threats. The purpose of researching more than one country is to enable a discussion on eventual areas of improvement in the two countries’ curricula, within the context of the common threats. The author chose Austria because of its many similarities to Sweden. The methodological approach of the thesis is mainly of a quantitative nature. The author researches whether the different threats are found in both national and military strategies as well as in the curricula of the two academies’ Basic Officer Education. The study shows that more education is needed regarding certain threats. More training is needed regarding cyber security as a result of the growing dependence on IT systems and digital information. In addition, an international collaboration could yield potential benefits for both officer cadets’ problem solving skills and their knowledge of the ESS. / Under det kalla kriget var det största hotet mot länderna i Europa ett fientligt angrepp eller invasion. Efter det kalla krigets slut förändrades den säkerhetspolitiska miljön avsevärt. Det överhängande hotet om storskaligt krig var borta och Europas länder närmade sig varandra i hopp om samarbete med ömsesidig nytta. I takt med att det gamla hotet bleknade så växte det fram andra hot som var betydligt mer dynamiska och komplexa. Hot som terrorism, spridning av massförstörelsevapen, organiserad brottslighet över gränserna och nedbrytning av svaga stater blev allt mer påtagliga, både i Europa och i dess närområde. Irreguljära konflikter som i Kosovo och i Afghanistan uppvisade en blandning av de olika hoten. Denna komplexitet innebär stora utmaningar för både dagens och morgondagens officerare. Det är av yttersta vikt att både nutida och framtida militära chefer och beslutsfattare är väl insatta i hur komplexa uppgifterna faktiskt kan komma att vara i deras yrkesutövning. Det första steget för att nå detta är att adekvat utbildning i ämnet ges. I detta arbete undersöker författaren i vilken utsträckning Försvarshögskolan i Sverige och Theresianische Militärakademie i Österrike utbildar sina officersaspiranter gällande de nya hoten. Syftet med att undersöka mer än ett land är för att kunna diskutera eventuella förbättringsmöjligheter i de två ländernas utbildningar, kopplat till de EU- gemensamma hoten. Författaren valde Österrike för dess många likheter med Sverige. Arbetets tillvägagångssätt är främst genom en kvantitativ metod. Författaren undersöker huruvida de olika hoten återfinns i såväl nationella som militära strategier och i kursinnehållen för de båda ländernas grundläggande officersutbildning. Studien visar att mer utbildning behövs avseende vissa hot, bland annat gällande cybersäkerhet som ett resultat av det växande beroendet av IT-system och digital information. Dessutom hade ett internationellt samarbete inneburit potentiella fördelar gällande både kadetters förmåga till problemlösning samt deras kunskap om ESS. / <p>Erasmus</p>

The ESSnuSB will produce a high intensity neutrino super beam based on the 3 ms long proton pulses at 14 Hz from the ESS linac. With the use of a conventional normal-conducting van der Meer horn, to collect pions from the neutrino target, these 3 ms pulses will have to be compressed to of the order of 1 microsecond in order to avoid overheating of the magnet current conductors. Since this pulse compression requires costly extensions to the accelerator complex a prototype design of an alternative normal-conducting hadron collector scheme that could be operated in DC mode has been studied. The magnet has been implemented in the simulation software FLUKA and extensive research has been made to analyse and maximise the flux of charged pions inside and downsteam of the magnet. Further simulations have been made to asses the flux of on-target neutrinos from the alternative collector scheme in comparison to the corresponding flux of a van der Meer horn. Simulation results from the comparison show that the alternative magnet greatly improved the neutrino flux of a bare source but not to the extent necessary to replace the magnetic horn. A conclusion is presented on the future possibilities of an optimized design that can improve the neutrino flux.

A microgrid is a subnetwork of power system that consists of a group of distributed energy sources and loads. It is designed to integrate distributed generation, loads, energy storage devices, converters, and monitoring and protection devices. Generally, a successful microgrid could run both in island mode (off-grid) and in grid-connected mode (on-grid), being able to convert between two modes at any time. With continuous development of the power system, distributed renewable generation unit accounts for an increasing proportion, since microgrid could effectively connect these generation units to the main grid, thereby improving the energy efficiency and the energy structure. Microgrid is increasingly playing an important role in the power system. This thesis focuses on reducing the cost of microgrids through economic operation, including both static and dynamic economic operations. Three cases are tested based on these two methods. Also, each case will include four situations including one without ESS and three situations with 2MWh ESS, 3MWh ESS, 4MWh ESS, respectively.

The objective of this thesis is to design and implement a rapid, reconfigurable and portable reader for wirelessly interrogating inductively coupled passive sensors. While the current method of impedance analyzer is sensitive and an accurate, the instruments used are bulky and slow, substantially hampering in-field testing and interrogation of sensors. Current methods cannot provide a quantifiable measure on minimum necessary read-speeds and instrument accuracy desirable for rapid sensing applications. This work summarizes the design and hardware implementation of two reader methods that address the aforementioned requirements. Both reader methods are based on a reflectometer approach: Swept-frequency Reflectometer Reader and Switched-frequency Interrogation Technique (SWIFT). The first method is a much faster alternative to in-lab and in-field testing for structural health monitoring, and is intended as an immediate replacement for the impedance analyzer method. Switched-frequency Interrogation is specifically designed to satisfy the need for rapid and accurate reading, potentially for in-motion sensing applications. This method provides a way of empirically relating minimum necessary read-time required for desired read-ranges. It also facilitates quantification of uncertainty in measurements, which is very critical in determining instrument accuracy in-field. The system design and implementation of both methods are described in detail and experimental results are presented to benchmark the performance of the readers. Issues of instrument reliability and practical limitations are also discussed, with potential solutions. Both methods are intended as universal techniques for wirelessly interrogating coupled passive sensors, not limited to their current form of implementation. / text
