Globally, transportation and manufacturing emit large amount of greenhouse gases that needs to be lowered for reaching agreed upon clim ate goals. In this context evidence of mitigation activities among eighty-five companies and their forty-five parent companies in these two polluting sectors were traced focusing on a country that has committed itself to leading the implementation of ambitious cli

OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether surveillance of pulmonary nodules detected with low-dose CT (LDCT) impacted health-related quality of life and psychosocial consequences in the Swedish population-based study, Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS).DESIGN: A prospective cross-sectional study.SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS: This multicentre (five sites) observational study, which included a co

This thesis deals with the general problem of controlling rigid-body systems through space, with a special focus on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Several promising UAV control algorithms have been developed over the past decades, enabling truly astounding feats of agility when combined with modern sensing technologies. However, these control algorithms typically come without global stability gu

The reuse and reappropriation of audiovisual content have been a recurring topic of research in the humanities, not least in studies of remix cultures. An open question that remains, however, is how artificial intelligence and machine learning may help scholars study the reuse of audiovisual heritage.

This deliverable reports on Risk Assessment for Wetland Sediment Applications on Agricultural Land. The main content is a thorough and critical evaluation (literature review) of the wetland coupled agriculture and the related concerns such as nutrients, sediments and contamination risks. This will also be supported by the two case studies. Constructed wetlands act as traps for substances carried w

For more than a century the research on the Antikythera Mechanism engaged scientists from a widerange of scientific disciplines searching for clues, in order to solve the mystery that this unique ar-chaeological find poses. The results so far have been spectacular enough to re-write the History ofTechnology providing new aspects on the degree of technological sophistication and scientific de-velop

The maintenance of protein homeostasis, also referred to as proteostasis, is essential for preserving the structural and functional stability of the proteome in living organisms. This involves the precise control of protein synthesis, folding, and degradation. As proteostasis disruption can cause growth and survival deficiencies in bacteria, the investigation of proteostasis has rapidly emerged as

Play is a quintessential human behaviour, underpinned by motor organisation and fundamental for learning and development. However, the motor patterns underlying play have not been computationally characterised in children with autism, despite known play pattern differences, including reduced social and pretend play.

The paper is based on an inventory of crofts and cottages that was made in the parish of Länghem in the southern part of the province of Västergötland, Sweden at the end of the 1950ies and the beginning of the 1960ies. The parish of Länghem has both manors (the medieval Torpa and Hofsnäs and the 17th century Sällerås) and independent villages. The inventory was made quite traditionally. We tried t

AbstractThe uptake of different nitrogen forms by understory species was studied in field and laboratory. Species of the understory in deciduous forests have previously been thought to take up and assimilate only inorganic nitrogen sources. However, species also have the opportunity to assimilate amino acids, usually in low rates compared with ammonium, according to solution culture studies, but m

We study agents situated in partially observable environments, who do not have sufficient resources to create conformant (complete) plans. Instead, they create plans which are conditional and partial, execute or simulate them, and learn from experience to evaluate their quality. Our agents employ an incomplete symbolic deduction system based on Active Logic and Situation Calculus for reasoning abo

The decay of OH concentration following photolysis of room-temperature vapor-phase hydrogen peroxide is studied as a function of photolysis fluence at 266 nm in an open air environment. The rate of decay is found to increase with increasing photolysis fluence, i.e., with increasing number of photodissociated H2O2(g) molecules. Single-exponential functions approximate the OH concentration decay rat

Objective: To compare consultation rate for knee osteoarthritis (OA) after meniscus repair, arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM), and in general population, respectively. Method: We identified patients aged 16-45 years having had meniscus surgery due to traumatic meniscus tear in 1998-2010 in southern Sweden by a healthcare register. Patients were followed from surgery until a diagnosis of knee

Most proteins have evolved to function optimally in aqueous environments, and the interactions between protein and water therefore play a fundamental role in the stability, dynamics, and function of proteins. Although we understand many details of water, we understand much less about the protein-water interface. In this thesis we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to cast light on many struct

Recent years have proven the benefits of electrifying the road bound vehicle fleet. With new components entering, the general understanding as well as the components as such needs to be improved. Focus in the thesis is on the design of an electric machine based on specifications of requirements for a commercial heavy vehicle such as a truck or a bus. One strict requirement is that the machine has

Objectives: Medial meniscal body extrusion ≥ 3 mm on MRI is often considered “pathologic.” The aims of this study were to (1) assess the adequacy of 3 mm as cut-off for “pathological” extrusion and (2) find an optimal cut-off for meniscal extrusion cross-sectionally associated with radiographic knee osteoarthritis, bone marrow lesions (BMLs), and cartilage damage. Methods: Nine hundred fifty-eight

We have examined and compared the effects of mutating Y41 and H155 in the iron superoxide dismutase (SOD) from the archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (Ss). These two neighboring residues in the active site are known to have crucial functions in structurally related SODs from different sources. The metal analysis indicates a slightly lower iron content after either Y41F or H155Q replacement, without

In the course of his life’s work, Claudio Ciborra addressed many interesting and complex problem areas of information systems, from management of corporate information infrastructures to organizational learning. However, a unifying theme which permeated his work was an emphasis on recognizing ‘users’ as real human beings, not idealised types. He considered people, leading real, every-day lives; no
