Impact of nuclear matrix element calculations for current and future neutrinoless double beta decay searches
2023
Nuclear matrix elements (NME) are a crucial input for the interpretation of neutrinoless double beta decay data. We consider a representative set of recent NME calculations from different methods and investigate the impact on the present bound on the effective Majorana mass $m_{\beta\beta}$ by performing a combined analysis of the available data as well as on the sensitivity reach of future projects. A crucial role is played by the recently discovered short-range contribution to the NME, induced by light Majorana neutrino masses. Depending on the NME model and the relative sign of the long- and short-range contributions, the current $3\sigma$ bound can change between $m_{\beta\beta} < 40$ m…
Innagerende atferd og relasjonsetablering
2023
Formålet ved å gjennomføre denne studien var å rette et søkelys mot elever som viser en innagerende atferd, og hvordan lærere i skolen kan etablere en trygg og god relasjon til denne elevgruppen. Elever som viser en innagerende atferd har ofte vansker med å komme i relasjon til læreren (Drugli, 2012, s. 80-81). Denne elevgruppen vil derfor ha et ekstra behov for at læreren ser dem, og aktivt går inn for å etablere en relasjon. For å belyse hvordan læreren kan etablere en trygg og god relasjon til denne elevgruppen valgte vi følgende problemstilling: “Hvordan etablerer læreren en trygg og god relasjon til elever som viser en innagerende atferd?" I studiens teori og tidligere forskning ble re…
Kreativ resonnering i arbeidet med problemløsningsoppgaver
2023
Denne studien er en kvalitativ casestudie som omhandler kreativ resonnering i elevers arbeid med problemløsningsoppgaver. Formålet med studien er å finne ut hvilke uttrykksformer elevene bruker, og hvordan disse uttrykksformene bidrar og øker elevers muligheter til å kreativt resonnere. Jeg har valgt å koble kreativ resonnering til problemløsning, fordi elever gjennom møter med problemer er nødt til å tenke nytt, anvende nye strategier, og være kreative når de argumenterer for sine løsningsstrategier. Valget falt mer spesifikt på problemløsningsoppgaver innenfor tematikken romforståelse. I studien er det brukt deltakende observasjon som metode, med bruk av videoopptak. Datainnsamlingen fore…
Graffiti and Street Art Research : An Outsider Perspective
2023
In this paper we discuss our endeavours and experiences in the field of graffiti and street art research (GSAR) in the form of a dialogue. We reflect on planning and engaging with GSAR, contemplate our (field) work, analyse the methods we have developed, and shed light on the possibilities that arose during research processes. In particular, we focus on what it is like to do GSAR as outsiders, i.e. as those who are not writers or artists themselves, or who do research into a graffiti or street art scene that is foreign to them. peerReviewed

Tilrettelegging for lek og samspill for elever som viser innagerende atferd
2023
I denne masteroppgaven i profesjonsrettet spesialpedagogikk rettes søkelyset mot pedagogers forståelse og erfaringer knyttet til innagerende atferd, og om hvordan de tilrettelegger for elever som viser slik atferd skal delta mer i lek og samspill i skolen. Problemstillingen for studien er følgende: Hvordan forstår pedagoger innagerende atferd, og hvordan tilrettelegger de for at elever som viser slik atferd skal delta mer i lek og samspill i grunnskolen? For å belyse problemstillingen ble tre pedagoger intervjuet om hvordan de hadde tilrettelagt, og hvilke tiltak de hadde satt i gang for å hjelpe elever de hadde hatt inn i lek og samspill. Formålet med studien var å synliggjøre elever som v…
Supporting student teachers’ reflection through assessment : The case of reflective podcasts
2023
Reflection is a key learning objective of teacher education, yet little is known about the ways in which it could be supported through assessment. In this case study (N = 14), we examine the potential of a novel assessment task—reflective podcasting—in supporting first-year student teachers’ reflection. We analyzed student group podcasts and corresponding student reflections and found that the task engendered reflection. Three theory-driven dimensions were constructed to emphasize the unique nature of podcasts for student reflection: experientiality, authenticity, and communality. We encourage factoring these dimensions into assessment designs that seek to foster student reflection. peerRev…
Lost in translation : implementing personal assistance in an East Asian context
2023
Since 2012, Taiwanese citizens with disabilities have been entitled to personal assistance from local authorities. To explore current features of personal assistance and barriers to its implementation, and distinguish it from homecare services, 33 disabled people and 12 staff members representing 10 local authorities in Taiwan were interviewed. Findings indicate that disabled people prefer personal assistance to homecare and perceive that relationships with their families have improved since the availability of personal assistance. However, many users’ needs are unmet due to insufficient hours of service and costly co-payments. Results also show that development of personal assistance has b…
Innovative Approaches for Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells
2023
El uso de nuevos materiales, como las moléculas emisoras de luz o los polímeros transportadores de iones, tiene una importancia fundamental a la hora de mejorar la vida útil o de conseguir altos niveles de luminancia en dispositivos de tipo LEC. Al mismo tiempo, los avances más recientes han llevado a la tecnología LED y OLED a una nueva clase de dispositivos con propiedades atractivas, como la flexibilidad o la transparencia, desarrollo que se ha llevado a cabo de forma muy limitada en los LECs. Teniendo esto en cuenta, el trabajo de esta Tesis se centró en la implementación de nuevos materiales, en particular nuevos emisores iTMC y un polímero conductor iónico, y el diseño y fabricación d…

Computer-aided-diagnosis for ocular abnormalities from a single color fundus photography with deep learning
2023
Any damage to the retina can lead to severe consequences like blindness. This visual impairment is preventable by early detection of ocular abnormalities. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) for ocular abnormalities is built by analyzing retinal imaging modalities, for instance, Color Fundus Photography (CFP). The main objectives of this thesis are to build two CAD models, one to detect the microaneurysms (MAs), the first visible symptom of diabetic retinopathy, and the other for multi-label detection of 28 ocular abnormalities consisting of frequent and rare abnormalities from a single CFP by using deep learning-based approaches. Two methods were proposed for MAs detection: ensemble-based and c…
Bounds on the number of maximal subgroups of finite groups
2023
In this paper we obtain significant bounds for the number of maximal subgroups of a given index of a finite group. These results allow us to give new bounds for the number of random generators needed to generate a finite $d$-generated group with high probability.
Umberto Riva Designer malgrado sé stesso
2023
Perché alcuni ottimi progettisti come Vico Magistretti sono esaltati dalla critica e altri ottimi progettisti come Umberto Riva sono tralasciati nei libri di storia del Design? Forse perché l’opera è troppo complessa, densa, sfaccettata, variegata ... fra Architettura, Pittura, Grafica, e Design? Ed è impossibile separare i tavoli di via Paravia, Casa Frea, Casa De Paolini dagli ambienti che ne hanno decretato dimensioni, materiali, proporzioni e fattura? Come scindere gli stessi tavoli da quelli destinati alla produzione industriale? O forse perché, per quanto il numero delle aziende con cui collabora cresca di anno in anno, con nessuna di esse Riva stringe una relazione continuativa e pro…
Hvorfor, hvorfor, hvorfor? En kvalitativ studie av hvordan Statsforvalteren gjennom tilsyn bidrar til å ivareta elevenes lovfestede rett til spesialu…
2023
Retten til spesialundervisning er hjemlet i opplæringsloven § 5-1. Den gir elever som ikke har, eller kan få, tilfredsstillende utbytte av ordinær opplæring, rett til spesialundervisning. Denne rettigheten bygger på enhetsskoleprinsippet, og tanken om en likeverdig grunnskoleopplæring for alle (Innst. S. nr. 15 (1995-1996)). Til tross for at retten til spesialundervisning er lovfestet, viser offentlige utredninger og oppslag i media at disse rettighetene ikke alltid oppfylles (Barneombudet, 2017; Nordahl et al., 2018; NOU 2019: 23). Hensikten med oppgaven er å se nærmere på hvordan Statsforvalteren, gjennom tilsyn, bidrar til å ivareta elevenes lovfestede rett til spesialundervisning. Oppga…
Healing Grief: A Commentary on Seneca's Consolatio ad Marciam
2023
Both our view of Seneca’s philosophical thought and our approach to the ancient consolatory genre have radically changed since the latest commentary on the Consolatio ad Marciam was written in 1981. The aim of this work is to offer a new book-length commentary on the earliest of Seneca’s extant writings, along with a revision of the Latin text and a reassessment of Seneca’s intellectual program, strategies, and context. A crucial document to penetrate Seneca’s discourse on the self in its embryonic stages, the Ad Marciam is here taken seriously as an engaging attempt to direct the persuasive power of literary models and rhetorical devices toward the fundamentally moral project of healing Ma…
New Materialist Explorations into Language Education
2023
This open access book analyzes language education through a socio-material framework. The authors revisit their position as researchers by decentering themselves and humans in general from the main focus of research activities and giving way to the materialities that are agentive but often overlooked parts of our research contexts and processes. Through this critical posthumanist realism, they are able to engage in research that sees society as an ethical interrelationship between humans and the material world and explore the socio-materialities of language education from the perspectives of material agency, spatial and embodied materiality, and human and non-human assemblages. Each chapter…

Measuring Movie Script Similarity using Characters, Keywords, Locations, and Interactions
2023
Measuring similarity between multilayer networks is difficult, as it involves various layers and relationships that are challenging to capture using distance measures. Existing techniques have focused on comparing layers with the same number of nodes and ignoring interrelationships. In this research, we propose a new approach for measuring the similarity between multilayer networks while considering interrelationships and networks of various sizes. We apply this approach to multilayer movie networks composed of layers of different entities (character, keyword, and location) and interrelationships between them. The proposed method captures intra-layer and inter-layer relationships, providing…
Algebraisk tenkning blant norske grunnskolelærerstudenter
2023
Algebra har i flere tiår vært en betydelig årsak til nedgang i matematikkprestasjoner i norsk skole, og manglende kompetanse i emnet kan knyttes til frafall i yrkesutdanninger (Grønmo et al., 2010; NOKUT, 2008). Til tross for algebraens viktige betydning i samfunnet viser både lokale og globale undersøkelser at dette er et utfordrende område, både for elever og lærerstudenter (Grønmo & Onstad, 2012; NOKUT, 2023). Forskning viser videre at elevenes forståelse i matematikk i stor grad avhenger av lærernes kunnskap, noe som understreker viktigheten av å undersøke lærerstudenters ferdigheter i algebraisk tenkning. På bakgrunn av dette er formålet med denne kvalitative studien å undersøke algebr…
Wastewater treatment sludge composting
2023
In recent years, the amount of sewage sludge generated by wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) has increased due to worldwide population growth and to efficiency of biological treatment processes [1,2]. Sludge is an important source of secondary pollution to aquatic environments and a potential risk to human health; moreover, it represents one of the most important cost items in the functioning of water treatment plants [3–5]. About 60% of the operating costs of secondary wastewater treatment plants in Europe can be associated with the treatment and disposal of products [6]. For this reason, proper sludge management becomes increasingly important, at both national and international level, an…
Association of oral lichen planus with hepatic disorders and hepatocellular carcinoma:systematic review and meta-analysis
2023
Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a prevalent autoimmune chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. The importance of the association between hepatic disease and OLP lies in the fact that many of these disorders (HC, HB, cirrhosis, hepatic steatosis) behave as risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma. We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus for studies published before January 2022. We evaluated the quality of studies (Joanna Briggs Institute tool). We performed meta-analyses, investigated the heterogeneity between studies, and we also carried out subgroups, meta-regression, and small-study effects analyses. 146 studies (21,187 patients) were included in this study. Our stu…
Effects of Coach Turnovers on Intensity for Training and Matches in a Norwegian Football Club
2023
The aim of this study was to examine physical variables between four weeks before and eight weeks after two coach turnovers in a second division Norwegian football club for both training and matches. Individual physical data (n=1174 observations) was derived from the players using GPS-data in combination with the subjects employing wearable instruments from Catapult. The means for variables were divided into four study periods (training 2019, matches 2019, training 2021, and matches 2021) to analyze each variable for each of the four periods. The training period in 2019 revealed four variables having a significant negative effect, including total distance covered, sprint running distance, t…

La vida de las mujeres en el Occidente medieval
2023
En los años setenta del siglo XX cobraron relevancia los estudios sobre la historia de las mujeres, un modo de interpretar el pasado en el que ellas ya no eran concebidas como objetos pasivos, sino como sujetos conscientes y activos. Por tanto, había que reescribir su historia, elaborar un relato que entrara en diálogo e interacción con la Historia general para poder inscribirlas en esta de manera más completa y real. Se trata, pues, de una historia de las mujeres, pero que comprende y afecta también a los hombres, y a cómo las relaciones entre los sexos se han ido construyendo en los distintos momentos de la historia, tanto en los espacios sociales y políticos como en los privados. El libr…

Tertiary lymphoid structures in pulmonary metastases of microsatellite stable colorectal cancer
2023
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are ectopic lymphoid aggregates located at sites of chronic inflammation and recognized as prognosticators in several cancers. We aimed to analyse the prognostic effect of TLSs in colorectal cancer (CRC) pulmonary metastases and primary tumours, with a comparison to the CD3+ and CD8+ cell density-based immune cell score (ICS). For TLS density and TLS maximum diameter analysis, 67 pulmonary metastases and 63 primary tumours were stained with haematoxylin and eosin. For ICS scoring and analysis, CD3 and CD8 immunohistochemistry was performed. Excellent interobserver agreement was achieved in all TLS measurements. Of all patients, 36 patients had low TLS den…

In this work, novel machine learning-based trajectory design and resource allocation schemes are presented for a multi-UAV communications system. In the considered system, the UAVs act as aerial Base Stations (BSs) and provide ubiquitous coverage. In particular, with the objective to maximize the system utility over all served users, a joint user association, power allocation and trajectory desi…
A Digital Twin framework for multi-objective optimization
2023
This thesis represents the culmination of the Msc civil engineering course at the University of Agder. This thesis aims to attempt to define a framework for implementing digital twins in an investment cost/energy consumption optimization process. The methodology applied is a complex software hierarchy. The original dataset rests on randomly generated values of thermal transmittance, which are analysed in IDA ICE simulations, and compared to existing materials identified in the Norsk Prisbok for cost estimation. The results are optimized using a combination of Artificial Neural Networks and a multi-objective optimization algorithm, the elitist non-dominated sorting algorithm NSGA-II. The res…

Teacher Feedback to Writing of Secondary School Learners of English in the Polish Classroom Context
2023
Since 1960s, process-oriented methodology in teaching English as a foreign language (EFL) writing has been thoroughly studied, researched, and successfully incorporated into pedagogy due to its repeatedly proven effectiveness. One of the procedures associated with this methodology is the provision of teacher feedback that goes beyond the form and grammatical aspects of written work. Nevertheless, while several decades of research conducted on writing instruction and teacher feedback situated within the tenets of process theories emphasize its positive influence on the development of EFL students’ writing skills, it appears that in Polish secondary school education EFL writing is largely mar…
