Money is central to capitalism and its sustainability crises. This article argues that it is not money itself, but its internal design and governance – how it is created, distributed, and governed – that drives inequality, ecological degradation, and unsustainable growth. Yet, money’s architecture is not fixed; it can be reimagined to foster fairer, greener economies.Approaching money as a socio-t
We show that algebraic proofs are hard to find: Given an unsatisfiable CNF formula F, it is NP-hard to find a refutation of F in the Nullstellensatz, Polynomial Calculus, or Sherali-Adams proof systems in time polynomial in the size of the shortest such refutation. Our work extends, and gives a simplified proof of, the recent breakthrough of Atserias and Müller (JACM 2020) that established an anal
A new and freely available model-based PID design tool for Matlab is introduced. It can be used to solve Maximal Integral Gain Optimization (MIGO) and (load) Integral Absolute Error (IAE) problems. Robustness is ensured through H-inf constraints on the closed-loop transfer functions. A Youla parameter (Q design) method for comparison with the optimal linear time-invariant (LTI) controller for the
Background: Familial confounding is confounding due to genetics or environmental exposures shared by family members. We aimed to study whether familial confounding explains the association between body mass index (BMI) and severe hip osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: We linked data from the Norwegian Arthroplasty Registry with the Norwegian Twin Registry on the National ID-number in 2014, generating a
The problem of estimating receiver or sender node positions from measured receiver-sender distances is a key issue in different applications such as microphone array calibration, radio antenna array calibration, mapping and positioning using UWB or using round-trip-time measurements between mobile phones and WiFi-units. In this paper we address the problem of optimally estimating a receiver positi
This paper evaluates an electric generator manufactured of cobalt-iron laminations used for a wave energy application. The properties of the two cobalt-iron designs are compared with a reference machine, which employs conventional electric steel laminations. Operation trajectories and machine losses, as well as the annual energy production and the losses are obtained through finite element analysi
This paper is based on a study where four go-along interviews with a total of sixteen participants were conducted in three Swedish cities. The purpose of this study was to find out how different aspects and qualities of the built environment affected different persons in terms of experiences of inclusion and exclusion and strategies used to deal with obstacles in the environment. The study highlig
A split sample study was performed on 109 bronchial brushings and washings and evaluated from conventional slides (CS) and CytoRich Red/Tripath preparations (CRR/Tripath). Unassessable bronchial washings were significantly more frequent in CS (5 vs. 0), but as all brushings were assessable with both methods, no overall diagnostic advantage was found. CS and CRR/Tripath gave discordant diagnoses in
In this study, LaBO3 (B = Co, Fe, Cu, Al) perovskite catalysts were introduced for Methanol Steam Reforming (MSR). Results showed that LaCoO3 displayed a 100 % methanol conversion efficiency and a notable hydrogen production rate of 7.86 mol/min/gcat, maintaining stability for more than 40 h at 600 °C. Theoretical computations indicate that the CH3O dehydrogenation to CH2O (a rate-determining proc
The Aviation industry is ultra-safe. Rules and procedures have been attributed as a contributory factor for attaining this high level of safety. The complexity of the aviation system has risen dramatically in the last few decades due to the development and introduction of modern aircraft and on-board technological innovations. Every day pilots encounter situations they did not expect. During those
In this letter we derive fundamental limitations on the levels of H {2} and H {\infty {}} performance that can be achieved when controlling lossless systems. The results are applied to the swing equation power system model, where it is shown that the fundamental limit on the H {2} norm scales with the inverse of the harmonic mean of the inertias in the system. This indicates that power systems may
We coordinate interconnected agents where the control input of eachagent is limited by the control input of others. In that sense, the sys-tems have to share a limited resource over a network. Such problems canarise in different areas and it is here motivated by a district heating ex-ample. When the shared resource is insufficient for the combined needof all systems, the resource will have to be s
