  1. 1. Continuity or Change? : Improved Understanding of Attitudes Towards Female Genital Cutting after Migration from Somalia to Sweden

    Author : Anna Wahlberg; Birgitta Essén; Sara Johnsdotter; Katarina Ekholm Selling; Bettina Shell-Duncan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; female genital cutting; circumcision; pricking; migration; gender; sexual and reproductive health and rights; Somalia; Sweden; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Do people’s attitudes towards female genital cutting (FGC) change after they migrate from a country where the practice is common, to one where it is not? Alongside increased levels of migration, this question is increasingly being raised. This thesis aimed to expand the understanding about attitudes towards FGC held by Somali men and women in Sweden, and thereby to identify potential factors that impede or facilitate the cessation of FGC.

    Abstract : Shells are commonly used in many branches of engineering, and have therefore beeninvestigated for a number of different types of shells. A shell is considered to be curved aplate with small thickness compared both to the other geometrical dimensions as well asto the wavelengths of importance. READ MORE

  5. 5. Geometry linking the art of building and the Universe: Geometric patterns on shells and grid shells

    Author : Emil Adiels; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Form finding; Differential Geometry; Conceptual design; Geometry; Shell; Engineering; Masonry; Craftsmanship; Grid shell; Architecture; Structural design;

    Abstract : Geometry links the art of building and the physics of space-time. Mathematical breakthroughs in geometry have led to new ways of designing our structures and our ability to visualise and describe the world, phenomena in nature and the universe. READ MORE
