Thermal energy storage is likely to be integral to a sustainable, secure and affordable energy system facing ever greater challenges in matching supply and demand. Techno-economic studies have explored the potential for thermal storage deployment, but transitions in the energy system are also influenced by the activities and decisions of an array of actors. We gathered new empirical evidence from
We study attitudes toward offering monetary payments for vaccination. We develop the Policy Lab, an experimental paradigm to characterize policy preferences in which participants decide whether to implement actual interventions to influence others' real-world behavior. In two studies with representative samples of the Swedish population (N=2,010) and one with Swedish policymakers (N=2,008), partic
BackgroundAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and a growing healthcare challenge. Amyloid-targeting therapies (ATT) may slow progression, but implementation is limited by logistical and economic barriers. As primary care is the first contact for most patients with cognitive concerns, quantifying treatment eligibility in this setting is essential. The purpose of this study
Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS) is a systemic autoimmune disease most commonly diagnosed in middle-aged women. Although the disease can occur at all ages, it is diagnosed between 30 and 60 years of age in two-thirds of patients. In more than 20% of cases, the people are older than 65 years. In this review, we focus on the therapeutic management of primary SjS in older patients, following the rece
Monte Carlo (MC) modelling techniques have been used extensively in Nuclear Medicine (NM). The theoretical energy resolution relationship (∝1/E−−√), does not accurately predict the gamma camera detector response across all energies. This study aimed to validate the accuracy of an energy resolution model for the SIMIND MC simulation code emulating the Siemens Symbia T16 dual-head gamma camera.
Organised on the 16 November 2020, the roundtable on “Sharing Cities – Shaping Tomorrow” focused on sharing insights and ideas on the future of sharing in our cities and communities. The roundtable gathered over 40 people from around world and formed part of the Smart City Live Conference. This report pulls together the conversations at the roundtable and distils the key findings.

CO2 Catalysis has been studied with Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) in combination with a mass spectrometer for a small, 23 cubic centimeters, cube shaped flow reactor. Both catalysis processes with one and with two catalysts inside the reactor have been carried out and analysed. Some results have been visualised by images showing concentration, given by the PLIF signal, of CO2 inside the
En av barnhälsovårdsjuksköterskans uppgifter är att stödja ammande mammor. Studier har visat att mammor som inte känner att de får stöd, har en större benägenhet att sluta amma i förtid. Syftet var att beskriva barnhälsovårdssjuksköterskans upplevelse av att ge stöd som stärker föräldrars, i synnerhet mammors, amningsbenägenhet och upprätthållande av amningen. En kvalitativ studie genomfördes med
In the recent decades, one of the most phenomenal changes in many universities in Western countries is the dramatically increase of students from China. Subsequently, the thesis author mentioned that general view concerning educational tourism associates educational tourists with the international students’ mobility. This has emerged as an important part of the university students’tourism market.
The aggregation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) into amyloid fibrils and plaques is one culprit to Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis. Once a small concentration of amyloid fibrils has formed through primary nucleation, a fibril-catalysed secondary nucleation takes over, leading to a close to exponential growth. Here, we have investigated the effect of five (J46, I48, J44, I68 and J7) out of twelve previo
Assimulo is a Python-based workbench for solving differential equations with the goal of making a multitude of solver meth- ods available through a higher-level interface. By generalizing the problem description, a user is able to apply any solver of their choice without having to redefine the original problem. Fol- lowing these guidelines, a set of wrappers have been developed to extend Assimulo
Utvecklingen inom förvaltningsbranschen gällande BIM och dess fördelar har lett till ett ökat intresse av ämnet hos fastighetsförvaltare. Detta då de insett möjligheterna med att kunna ställa krav och påverka de BIM-modeller som skapas under projektering för att göra de användbara i förvaltningen av byggnaden. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att effektivisera flödet av ytinformation från nybygg
Geofysiska mätmetoder kan tids- och kostnadseffektivt skapa tvådimensionella (2D) och tredimensionella (3D) modeller som avspeglar geologin och som kan användas som ett verktyg för kartläggning av grundvattentillgångar. I denna studie har fyra profiler belägna i den s.k. Vombsänkan i sydöstra Skåne undersökts med galvanisk resistivitetsmätning (ERT) och Transient Elektronmagnetisk Sondering (TEM)Geophysical methods can create 2D- and 3D-models that reflects the geology. These models can be used as a tool for mapping groundwater resources. Four profiles, located in Vombsänkan in southeastern Skåne, have been investigated with Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and ground-based Transient Electromagnetic Soundings (TEM) as a study of the two methods. The resistivity profiles from the g
Kvinnomisshandel är ett vanligt förekommande problem. I svenska studier har man funnit att 46 % av de tillfrågade kvinnorna har utsatts för våld efter sin 15- årsdag. De kvinnor som misshandlas söker ofta sjukvård och de är då i ett sårbart tillstånd med stort behov av ett respektfullt och stödjande omhändertagande. Denna litteraturstudie behandlar sjuksköterskans möte med kvinnor som utsatts för
Question: How does reproductive timing in annual social insects evolve under intraspecific exploitation competition and in response to a changing environment? The latter includes shifts in resource abundance, mortality, season length, and resource peak timing, factors often associated with climate change. Background: Climate and land use are changing. Evolutionary ecology must learn to predict how
