Sleep is a universal and complex state and it is widely agreed that this state is present in every animal species. However, the evolutionary origins of sleep remain ignored or misunderstood, which has led researchers to study, in various species, this common behaviour of all living organisms. Sleep is commonly studied at various levels under laboratory conditions, using tethered devices which reco
Aquifer classification plays a pivotal role in understanding groundwater dynamics and informing sustainable water resource management, especially in regions under significant stress from over-extraction. This study presents a novel remote sensing-based methodology for classifying aquifers represented by monitoring wells within the study area. The approach integrates stress-strain analysis, incorpo
The study is devoted to the development of the 2DCAM hardware and software complex for the physical modeling of the two-coordinate positioning system of the additional video camera of the UAV using the Simulink environment. DYNAMIXEL actuator systems were used to create a complex prototype. They combine DC motor, reduction gearhead, controller, driver and network components.The AH-12A actuator is
Idag lever allt fler människor under förhållanden som definieras som prekära. Även i avancerade välfärdssamhällen lyckas inte de traditionella trygghetssystemen erkänna och hantera de nya sociala risker som dessa grupper inom ”prekariatet” ställs inför. Bland dessa grupper finner vi migrantkvinnor med osäker rättslig ställning. Denna forskning undersöker hur aktörer i akademin och i civilsamhälletIn advanced welfare societies, traditional welfare programs are failing to recognize and respond to new social risks faced by groups in precarious life situations, including migrant women. This research explore how actors in academic and civil society settings recognize and frame the struggles of migrant women with precarious legal status, particularly in terms of gender-based violence (GBV) and a
De senaste 20 åren har humanioraintegrering i professionsutbildning varit på frammarsch i Sverige, både som forskningsfält och högskolepedagogisk praktik. Detta syns bland annat på bildandet av ett antal tvärvetenskapliga centra och program med sådan integrering i fokus. Den akademiska litteraturen om humanioraintegration i professionsutbildning visar att utvecklingen i Sverige är en del av en int
This study presents a digital solution for inducing visually-induced motion sickness (VIMS) using a head-mounted display (HMD) in a virtual environment. By digitally replicating off vertical axis rotation by adopting the Epley Omniax Chair, we induce sensory conflicts between the visual and vestibular systems through rotational vection, alongside optokinetic stimulation inspired by the Optoki-neti
Interpretation of data from faint dwarf galaxies is made challenging by observations limited to only the brightest stars. We present a major improvement to tackle this challenge by undertaking zoomed cosmological simulations that resolve the evolution of all individual stars more massive than 0.5 M⊙, thereby explicitly tracking all observable stars for the Hubble time. For the first time, we predi
Studying the behavior of multiple participants using networked eye-tracking setups is of increasing interest to researchers. However, to conduct such studies, researchers have had to create complicated ad hoc solutions for streaming gaze over a local network. Here we present TittaLSL, a toolbox that enables creating networked multi-participant experiments using Tobii eye trackers with minimal prog
Developing accurate large-scale drought prediction models is challenging due to the complex temporal and spatial correlation patterns that govern drought dynamics, as well as the compounding effects of anthropogenic activities and global climate change. Although recent advances in deep learning have yielded effective drought prediction models, many struggle to fully capture the heterogeneous spati
Accurate quantification in emission tomography is essential for internal radiopharmaceutical therapy dosimetry. Mean activity concentration measurements in objects with diameters less than 10 times the full width at half maximum of the imaging system’s spatial resolution are significantly affected (>10%) by the partial-volume effect. This study develops a framework for PET and SPECT spatial resolu
A critical challenge in developing anion exchange membrane (AEM) water electrolysis is to design high-performance AEMs with chemical and mechanical stability under harsh alkaline environments. Herein, we report the rational design and synthesis of QP(T-3-Pip) featuring flexibly linked isomeric piperidinium cations via a Friedel-Crafts polyhydroxyalkylation between terphenyl and commercial 3-piperi
Background: The purpose of this analysis was to revisit the open US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspection list results from clinical trials and show the possibilities of evaluating inspection results between different world regions and explore what aspects of clinical trial deficiencies are most often reported.Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate inspection results from different re
In the challenge to reduce CO2, NOx and PM emissions, the application of natural gas or biogas in engines is a viable approach. In heavy duty and marine, either a conventional dual fuel (CDF), or a reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) approach is feasible on existing diesel engines. In both technologies a pilot diesel injection is used to ignite the premixed natural gas. However, the
BackgroundLiver metastases are a common consequence of colorectal cancer. When feasible, surgical resection is first-line treatment. Synchronous disease can be treated with different strategies. Traditionally, the primary tumour is resected first followed by resection of the liver metastases (bowel-first). The other option, which is increasing, is the liver-first strategy, where resection of the l
PMCA4 is a critical regulator of Ca2+ homeostasis in mammalian cells. While its biological and prognostic relevance in several cancer types has already been demonstrated, only preclinical investigations suggested a metastasis suppressor function in melanoma. Therefore, we studied the expression pattern of PMCA4 in human skin, nevus, as well as in primary and metastatic melanoma using immunohistoch
Housing expenses have the highest share in household budgets of low-income groups in Copenhagen leading to affordability problems. To provide affordable housing (AH) for low-income groups, the municipality developed a zoning plan in 2015 aimed to reserve up to 25% of land for new AH production. This qualitative case study compares the affordability of homes produced by private sector and nonprofit
Incumbent firms face growing pressure to transform their business towards sustainability. However, business models for sustainability (BMfS) and circularity are grounded in fundamentally different institutional logic which, for incumbents, creates tensions with existing business models, structures and routines. How organizations manage tensions from conflicting logics is explored comprehensively i
