Public Law in a Hybrid State presents a broad sociological analysis of legal developments in contemporary Uzbekistan, using this example to assess why states with some authoritarian features may promote legal reforms and why the modernization of legal institutions may generate benefits for governments. It examines how, alongside constitutional changes, reforms in administrative law play an importa
Introduction: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) may cause stress-induced transient acute cardiac dysfunction through myocardial stunning, in the form of exacerbation-triggered Takotsubo syndrome (referred to as Takotsubo stunning). Although prior studies suggest an association between AECOPD and transient cardiac dysfunction, existing evidence is limited to retro
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) with increasingly advanced battery technologies is reshaping electricity demand patterns. Yet existing studies often assume static behaviors, overlooking that real-world charging patterns are transient and evolve in response to technological change. This study applies a scenario-aware generative modeling framework to project weekly EV charging demand i
With growing interest in cobalt-based complexes for electrocatalytic applications, we synthesized four homoleptic facial-octahedral Co(iii) β-oxodithioester complexes (1–4) with the general composition [Co(L)3], where L represents 3-(methylthio)-1-(furan-2-yl)-3-thioxoprop-1-en-1-olate (L1), 3-(methylthio)-1-(thiophen-2-yl)-3-thioxoprop-1-en-1-olate (L2), 3-(methylthio)-1-(pyridin-3-yl)-3-thioxopr
Cross-linguistic research shows that languages differ in how they encode the basic semantic components of motion events (figure, motion, manner, path, and ground) in their grammars and lexicons. While manner and path encoding have received significant attention, one core component has been underestimated: ground, the object or surface relative to which motion occurs. In fact, the possibility of gr
We present MixtureVitae, an open-access pretraining corpus1 built to minimize legal risk while providing strong downstream performance. MixtureVitae follows a permissive-first, risk-mitigated sourcing strategy that combines public-domain and permissively licensed text (e.g., CC-BY/Apache) with carefully justified low-risk additions (e.g., government works and EU TDM-eligible sources). MixtureVitae
Objective: To describe the epidemiology of injuries and illnesses at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. Methods: Injuries and illnesses were recorded daily via a web-based injury and illness surveillance system and local organising committee medical facilities. Adjusted incidences (injuries/illnesses per 1000 athlete days; 95% CIs), injury prevalence (IP; %) and injury burden (days lost per 1000 ath
Myostatin negatively regulates skeletal muscle size in multiple species, and therefore, myostatin blockade has been therapeutically explored to promote muscle growth in humans, including to counter the muscle loss seen in obese humans using GLP1R agonists. In this study, we present results from a large multi-cohort genetic association analysis, using data from 1.1 million individuals to examine th
Previous experimental studies of pyrrole pyrolysis reported numerous hydrocarbon and nitrogen-containing products from HCN up to pyridine and dinitriles. To develop a consistent detailed kinetic mechanism for pyrrole, the rate constants of H atom abstraction from C4H5N by NH2, and CH2CN radicals have been calculated at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)-F12/cc-pVDZ-F12//M06–2X/def2-TZVP level of theory while H ato
Background and purpose: Claudin-5 plays a crucial role in maintaining blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity through endothelial tight junction formation. Alternative splicing of claudin-5 within the microvascular endothelium may modulate BBB structural and functional dynamics, thereby affecting neuronal damage and recovery after ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to investigate temporal and
This bachelor thesis examines how Sámi women and queer Sámi people's vulnerabilization is constructed through an indigenous feminist and western politics discourse in the report called Violence against Sámi women (Våld mot samiska kvinnor). By using critical discourse analysis and Fairclough’s three-dimensional model, the thesis shows that the report constructs Sámi women's vulnerabilizati
This thesis investigates the development of an object-oriented modular framework for PLC systems, intended for use at Etteplan, an international engineering consultancy. The thesis was motivated by recurring challenges in PLC projects, including unclear program flows, low code reusability, and limited scalability. These issues justify the need for a standardized framework grounded in the IEC 61131
Detta examensarbete tar fram ett förslag för en ny arena vid Norra Hovstallängen i Uppsala och undersöker hur en storskalig evenemangs- och idrottsbyggnad kan integreras i en av stadens mest centrala och strategiskt placerade platser, i nära anslutning till Uppsala centralstation. Platsens läge i staden väcker frågor kring hur en sådan framträdande yta bör användas, och vilket värde en storskalig
Denna studie undersöker hur människors välbefinnande i bostadsområden påverkas av utomhusmiljö och biofilisk design. Vi har valt särskilt fokus på Holma i Malmö, ett område som byggdes under miljonprogrammet. Syftet med studien är att analysera hur Holmas bostadsmiljö förhåller sig till biofilisk design både i nutid och i samband med renoveringar och framtida stadsomvandling. För att genomföra arbThis study examines how people’s well-being in residential areas is affected by the outdoor environments and biophilic design. We have chosen to focus specifically on Holma in Malmö, an area built during the million homes programme era. The aim of the study is to analyze how Holma’s residential environment relates to biophilic design, both in present time and in connection with renovations and pla
Den ökade efterfrågan och turismen i Stockholms skärgård har skapat en identitetsmässig konflikt, där bebyggelseutvecklingen främst drivs av kommersiella besöksnäringar och privata fritidshus. Skärgårdsmiljön balanserar idag mellan strikt skyddade naturområden och exklusiva, privatiserade strandtomter, vilket lämnar lite utrymme för ett levande permanentliv. För att skärgården ska förbli en fungerThe growing demand and tourism in the Stockholm archipelago have created a conflict of identity, where property development is primarily driven by commercial hospitality industries and private seasonal housing. Today, the archipelago environment balances between strictly protected natural areas and exclusive, privatized shorelines, leaving little room for a vibrant, year-round community. For the a
Climate change policies have stimulated a shift towards renewable energy sources such as biomass. The economic crisis of 2008 has also increased the practice of household biomass burning as it is often cheaper than using oil, gas or electricity for heating. As a result, household biomass combustion is becoming an important source of air pollutants in the European Union.This position paper discusse
With the growth of e-commerce, understanding the nuances of packaging performance and consumer expectations has become essential to enhancing the customer experience. In e-commerce, packaging is a key component of the overall consumer experience, directly influencing perceptions and expectations. Despite its importance, packaging often remains overlooked and is significantly understudied. This exp
The theory of optimal control on positive cones has recently identified several new problem classes where the Bellman equation can be solved explicitly, in analogy with classical linear quadratic control. In this paper, the idea is extended to minimax adaptive control, yielding exact solutions to instances of the Bellman equation for dual control. In particular, this allows for optimization of the
In this paper, we introduce a generalized dynamical unbalanced optimal transport framework by incorporating limited control input and mass dissipation, addressing limitations in conventional optimal transport for control applications. We derive a convex dual of the problem using dual optimal control techniques developed before and during the 1990s, transforming the non-convex optimization into a m
