In the light of (super) wicked problems, as climate change is, a deep transformation of energy and transport systems is needed. Among other technological innovations, liquid biofuels were adopted also in Romania as an innovation that could contribute to the transition towards a more sustainable transport. However, the biofuels sector is not well-developed in Romania, in spite of considerable poten
On March 1, 2020, the Swedish parliament proposed a travel ban in 31 a § (1990:52) The Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act (sv. LVU) to protect children at risk of being taken abroad for genital mutilation or mar- riage, or other marriage-like unions. Four years later, the provision has been expanded to capture a wider range of harmful and thus aiming to protect more children. Between 2
The European furniture industry is driven to change from linear to circular business models. Product-service systems (PSS) are considered to offer promising solutions that may enable the transition towards the circular economy. In the furniture industry, one example of a product-service system is the furnishing rental service. However, understanding of how such a service could be developed and imp
There is strong evidence that climate change has a direct impact on humans and extreme temperatures have been linked to negative health impacts and increasing mortality. The heat wave of 2018 caused up to 8.2% more deaths compared to the year before in Sweden, with higher impacts in other parts of the world. The fact that people spent almost 90% of their times indoors makes the indoor environment
In this thesis the inoperability I/O model has been used in a case study to evaluate if it is applicable to Swedish conditions and if it is a suitable approach of describing interdependencies. The inoperability I/O model can, given a perturbation from one or more sectors, estimate the ripple effects measured in terms of industry inoperability and economic losses. The model approximates physical in
BAKGRUND: Effektiv kommunikation och samarbete är en förutsättning för att kunna leverera en vård som är säker för patienten och misstag i kommunikationen mellan personer i vårdkedjan är en vanlig orsak till skador. Ett dilemma i dagens vård är operationsteam med olika yrkesgrupper med ibland otydliga arbetsuppgifter och ansvarsområden, som utgör en stor utmaning för kommunikationen. SYFTE: Att un
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with variable patient responses to therapy. Selinexor, an inhibitor of nuclear export, has shown promising clinical activity for AML. To identify the molecular context for monotherapy sensitivity as well as rational drug combinations, we profile selinexor signaling responses using phosphoproteomics in primary AML patient samples and cell line
Today, the majority of employees in the tourism industry work under contingent and fairly insecure working conditions, among them seasonal employees. In this industry, the business of amusement parks and resort hotels is one with a high quota of seasonally hired front-line employees. Research from Human Resource Manage¬ment pinpoints the underlying risks of low commitment among employees in an ind
Arbete kan vara en stor del av en individs liv och värderas ofta högt av samhället. Personer med psykisk ohälsa är en grupp som riskerar att hamna utanför arbetsmarknaden. Arbetsrehabilitering är ett sätt att minska utanförskap för denna grupp. Många som arbetar med arbetsrehabilitering för personer med psykisk ohälsa är arbetsterapeuter. Meningsfulla aktiviteter är ett koncept som genomsyrar all

In a recent paper we presented a procedure for optimal analyticalcontrol of several deformable mirrors based on only the measured guidestar wavefronts. The expected performance was evaluated for variousguide star configurations using up to three deformable mirrors. Forsimplicity the guide stars were assumed to be infinitely distant. Inthis paper we address the effect of using laser guide stars in
Thailand is facing with various extreme climate events from flood to drought. As a result of climate change, these events tend to increase in frequency and intensity. The existing water infrastructures and management is showing sign of fragility and incapable of dealing with these challenges. To increase adaptive capacity and tackle current water resource challenges, water management agencies in T
Demensvården har behov av att hitta alternativa behandlingsformer som kan bidra till ökad livskvalité för personer med demens. Denna interventionsstudie där kvantitativ metod användes, syftade till att se om bildskapande verksamhet hade någon påverkan på livskvalité, kognitiv och funktionell förmåga samt psykiska symtom. Totalt 19 personer med demens som var beroende av vård och omsorg valdes ut p
