Öresundsregionen är idag en region i förändring. De senaste åren har danska och svenska medborgare börjat arbeta, bo eller på annat sätt vistas på andra sidan sundet i allt högre grad. Tillväxten är hög och Malmö och Köpenhamn integreras på ett sätt som är ovanligt för städer lokaliserade i olika länder. År 2004 bosatte sig fyra gånger så många danskar i Skåne som under 1998 vilket innebär en ökni
This research explores the development and use of waste to energy (WTE) technologies in Europe and in the Province of Ontario, Canada. As the quantity of waste generated has continued to increase in industrialized countries, the need for alternative waste management methods to reduce the dependency on landfill and to recover the resource in the waste has also increased. Many European countries, in
This research paper focuses on historical, arithmetic equity market risk premium in emerging and frontier markets. Equity market risk premium, as we know it today, has been easily estimated in developed markets; whereas, emerging and frontier markets often require different approaches to determine an appropriate equity market risk premium. I make use of a variety of methods, including volatility a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Streptococcus pyogenes Människan är ständigt koloniserad av en mängd olika mikroorganismer. De flesta bakterier är ofarliga och en del av dem är faktiskt nödvändiga för oss, t.ex. de tarmbakterier som hjälper oss att producera vitaminer. Grupp A streptokocker (GAS) eller Streptococcus pyogenes, är en av de vanligaste sjukdomsframkallande bakterierna hos människan. De kaWe have found that a set of group A streptococcal strains, primarily associated with skin infections, express surface-associated M proteins that bind plasminogen and plasmin with high affinity. The binding is mediated by a common 13 amino acid internal repeated sequence located in the NH2-terminal surface-exposed portion of these M proteins. It could be demonstrated that plasminogen, absorbed by t
This thesis investigates the implementation of the digital euro, focusing on university students' trust and awareness in the Benelux region. The study addresses a gap in the existing literature by exploring perceptions among students in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Through a quantitative survey of 390 respondents, the research examines if awareness of the digital euro predicts tru
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur en gruppinsats för unga flickor med högfungerande autism fungerade och upplevdes av deltagarna och deras vårdnadshavare. Gruppinsatsen bestod av en integrering av metoder hämtade ur Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassionfokuserad terapi (CFT), dans och yoga och avsåg att förebygga psykisk ohälsa hos deltagarna. Studien genomfördes genom ob
This study shows that the framework used to construct the successful Euro Area Leading Indicator (ALI), developed by de Bondt and Hahn on behalf of the European Central Bank, can successfully be applied to the Swedish business cycle. The ALI type indicator constructed in this study is a weighted index of nine macroeconomic series and accurately predicts the Swedish business cycle by three months (
Microhabitat conditions determine the magnitude and speed of microbial processes but have been challenging to investigate. In this study we used microfluidic devices to determine the effect of the spatial distortion of a pore space on fungal and bacterial growth, interactions, and substrate degradation. The devices contained channels differing in bending angles and order. Sharper angles reduced fu
There is a long history of avian studies investigating the impacts of urbanization. While differences in several life-history traits have been documented, either between urban and rural populations or across generalized urbanization gradients, a detailed understanding of which specific environmental variables cause these phenotypic differences is still lacking. Here, we quantified several local en
Sedan antiken har humanismen försökt definiera den mänskliga naturens väsen samtidigt som den placerar människan i universums centrum som ”alla tings mått”. I ett försök att omvärdera människans betydelse har det talats om ett slags transhumanistisk intersubjektivitet. Jag utgår från fysikern och feministen Karen Barads begrepp intraaktion (samspel mellan integrerade delar). Barad myntar begreppet
In an explorative manner this article uses a data driven digital history set-up to focus on broad cultural heritage issues in Sweden during the second half of the 20th century. By distant reading and topic modeling a dataset of 3100 Swedish Government Official Reports (SOU) between 1945–89, the article gives a new perspective of how the Swedish state examined and discussed national cultural herita
In this work we introduce the concept of natural ageing via precipitation arising from eutectic cell structure (PEC-ageing). Natural age-strengthening in grey cast iron at room temperature is long recognised yet still poorly understood, despite its beneficial effect on tensile strength and machinability. We investigate its underlying mechanisms by comparing fresh and naturally aged industrial grey
BACKGROUND: Spinal cord injury (SCI) may, and often does, profoundly reshape daily life, altering physical abilities, social roles, and personal identities. While assistive technologies, including assistive robotics, are often framed as solutions to re-establish independence, their adoption is shaped by practical, emotional, and social considerations as well as functional qualities. Individuals wi
The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is connected to the rest of the brain through two main networks: the anterior-temporal (AT) and the posterior-medial (PM) systems. Given the crucial role of the MTL and networks in the physiopathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the present study aimed at (1) investigating whether MTL atrophy propagates specifically within the AT and PM networks, and (2) evaluating
Low-dimensional topological states have transformed our understanding of charge transportation through quantum materials. Many relevant observations have been connected to bismuth (Bi) containing materials or ultrathin Bi films. Here, we studied sub-monolayer amounts of Bi deposition on the In-terminated InSb(111)A surface using various complementary surface science techniques. Bi deposition at el
With the shift toward de-escalating surgery in breast cancer, prediction models incorporating imaging can reassess the need for surgical axillary staging. This study employed advancements in deep learning to comprehensively evaluate routine mammograms for preoperative lymph node metastasis prediction. Mammograms and clinicopathological data from 1265 cN0 T1-T2 breast cancer patients (primary surge
Investigating metal-semiconductor interfaces is crucial for enabling ultra-thin film growth and tuning the electronic properties. Here we have studied the atomic mechanism of Bi incorporation into the surface of InSb, the III-V semiconductor with the largest spin-orbit coupling, using surface science techniques and theoretical modeling. Bi deposition onto Sb-terminated InSb(111) surfaces at elevat
The reliability of a critical industrial component is decided by the durability of the weakest joint or spot. For applications involving high-temperature operational conditions especially coupled with corrosive environments like fuel cell interconnections, molten metal baths, etc., the joints are the most vulnerable regions for catastrophic failure due to localized material degradation by selectiv
