    Sammanfattning : Against a backdrop of feminist and social scientific research on sex, female embodiment, and normality this thesis aims to discern how young women, who in adolescence have learned that their bodies are developing in ways considered ‘atypical’ for the female sex, make sense of their bodies and their situation. In focus are the ways in which the women make sense of and negotiate female embodiment; how they, particularly in stories about their interactions with others, position their embodied selves; and how norms and beliefs about sexed embodiment, heterosexual practice, and in/fertility are strengthened and challenged in the interviewees’ sense-making.

  3. 2. Systems Dependability Engineering for Wind Power Applications : Challenges, Concepts, and System-Level Methodologies

    Författare :Idriss El-Thalji; Anders Karlsson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :System Dependability; Systems Engineering; Terotechnology; Terotechnology; Systemekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : Complexity and uncertainty have impacted wind power systems and their applications.Commercial wind power asset exhibits complex system behaviour due tostochastic loading characteristics of its installation context. However, differentstakeholders’ practices in whole life cycle processes try to treat multi-disciplinarycomplexity issues. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Tillblivelsens pedagogik : Om att utmana det förgivettagna. En postkvalitativ studie av det ännu-icke-seddas pedagogiska möjligheter

    Författare :Lotta Johansson; Pedagogik; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; the not-yet-seen; education of becoming; Deleuze Guattari; post qualitative; youths;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the educational and methodological opportunities of the ‘not-yet-seen’. Departure is taken in the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari, and in pivotal concepts that challenge the image of the stabile subject, chronological time and established dichotomies in general. The aim of the thesis is three folded. LÄS MER

  5. 4. HIV and Infant Feeding : Operational Challenges of Achieving Safe Infant Feeding Practices

  7. 5. Integrating Management and Engineering Processes in Software Product Development

    Författare :Daniel Karlström; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Process Improvement; Software Engineering; Agile Methodologies; Software Product Development; Computer science; kontroll; system; Datalogi; numerisk analys; control; numerical analysis; systems;

    Sammanfattning : The intangible nature of software means that traditional processes for managing product development are not sufficiently effective. This, in combination with the increasing share of software in technical products, has had the effect of making it difficult to identify improvement proposals for engineering processes in many cases.
