Large-scale long-term passive-acoustic monitoring reveals spatio-temporal activity patterns of boreal bats
2023
The distribution ranges and spatio-temporal patterns in the occurrence and activity of boreal bats are yet largely unknown due to their cryptic lifestyle and lack of suitable and efficient study methods. We approached the issue by establishing a permanent passive-acoustic sampling setup spanning the area of Finland to gain an understanding on how latitude affects bat species composition and activity patterns in northern Europe. The recorded bat calls were semi-automatically identified for three target taxa; Myotis spp., Eptesicus nilssonii or Pipistrellus nathusii and the seasonal activity patterns were modeled for each taxa across the seven sampling years (2015–2021). We found an increase …
Propolis as a Cariostatic Agent in Lozenges and Impact of Storage Conditions on the Stability of Propolis
2023
Propolis is known as a source of compounds with strong antibacterial activity. Due to the antibacterial effect against streptococci of the oral cavity, it seems to be a useful agent in decreasing the accumulation of dental plaque. It is rich in polyphenols which are responsible for a beneficial impact on the oral microbiota and antibacterial effect. The aim of the study was to evaluate the antibacterial effect of Polish propolis against cariogenic bacteria. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were determined on cariogenic streptococci related to the occurrence of dental caries. Lozenges based on xylitol, glycerin, gelatin, water, and ethan…

Convergence of inertial prox-penalization and inertial forward-backward algorithms for solving bilevel monotone equilibrium problems
2023
The main focus of this paper is on bilevel optimization on Hilbert spaces involving two monotone equilibrium bifunctions. We present a new achievement consisting on the introduction of inertial methods for solving this type of problems. Indeed, two several inertial type methods are suggested: a proximal algorithm and a forwardbackward one. Under suitable conditions and without any restrictive assumption on the trajectories, the weak and strong convergence of the sequence generated by the both iterative methods are established. Two particular cases illustrating the proposed methods are thereafter discussed with respect to hierarchical minimization problems and equilibrium problems under a sa…

Success Factors for Crisis Management of Major Municipalities
2023
The number of crises is increasing and being prepared for one is crucial. The aim of the study was to find critical success factors for municipalities in dealing with crises. The inspiration for writing this thesis is taken from one of the more recent global unpredictable events, COVID-19. Given its significant consequences, an interest arose in exploring ways to enhance crisis preparedness to limit potential damages. Due to the limited research on bigger organizations during times of crises, the choice became to focus on major municipalities. Coombs' three-stage model of crisis management is used as the theoretical foundation for the study. With a qualitative case study, the thesis attempt…

Proton irradiation-induced reliability degradation of SiC power MOSFET
2023
The effect of 53 MeV proton irradiation on the reliability of silicon carbide power MOSFETs was investigated. Post-irradiation gate voltage stress was applied and early failures in time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) test were observed for irradiated devices. The applied drain voltage during irradiation affects the degradation probability observed by TDDB tests. Proton-induced single event burnouts (SEB) were observed for devices which were biased close to their maximum rated voltage. The secondary particle production as a result of primary proton interaction with the device material was simulated with the Geant4-based toolkit. peerReviewed

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…
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…

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…

The findings of our systematic literature review (SLR) identifies obstacles and already ex…
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…
Sosiaalisen median käyttö muokkaa nuorten aivoja

Når det ikke er naturlig for de, så får de kanskje ikke rom for det heller.
2023
Mennesker diagnostisert med autismespekterforstyrrelser (ASF) har hatt en gradvis økning de siste årene (Martinsen et al., 2016). På bakgrunn av utfordringer med sosial kommunikasjon og sosiale ferdigheter, er det en risiko for at barn med ASF havner utenfor det sosiale fellesskapet i barnehagen (Germani et al., 2017, Löfdal, 2014; Ruud, 2012; Sjursen, 2021, s. 121). Samtidig har behovet for spesialpedagogisk hjelp i barnehagen har hatt en liten økning (Utdanningsdirektoratet, 2023). Til tross for at tidligere forskning viser at barn med autismespekterforstyrrelser ofte uteblir fra sosiale samspill i barnehagen (Jahr et al., 2007), kan en gjennom tilrettelegging øke barnas mulighet til å væ…
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…
