Microfluidics is a field which has the potential to revolutionize medical diagnostics. The ability to sort and analyse cells by the use of portable handheld devices has the potential to enable sensitive devices for point-of-care diagnostics. This could play a major role in diagnosis of a wide range of diseases which are prevalent in remote areas in developing countries where a majority of the peop
The role of the fracture process region during fast fracture is discussed. Reviewed experiments on modern pressure vessel steels show that already at crack tip speeds of one or two hundred mls fracture processes are dominantly brittle. Modelling of the process region is discussed in the light of asymptotic elastic plastic fields and process region autonomy. It is suggested that a fraction of the cThe role of the fracture process region during fast fracture is discussed.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to develop a technique for automatic segmentation based on Fourier descriptors for separating smooth objects from the background in SPECT-images. The aim of the segmentation method was to be able to automatically outline kidneys in SPECT-images of patients undergoing radionuclide therapy with 177Lu-DOTATATE. The potential advantage of combining SPECT- an
Circular building design could significantly reduce the environmental impact of buildings and the pressure on natural resources. However, most buildings today are not designed according to the principles of the circular economy. Most literature has focused on either methods for quantifying the lifecycle analysis of buildings and materials, or on innovative circular building materials, but not much
The coronavirus was first detected in late 2019 in Wuhan, China and spread rapidly around the world. In 2020, the World Health Organization declared the disease a pandemic. This study examines the impact between the COVID-19 pandemic and Swedish citizens' trust in the state and government agencies. As a consequence of the corona pandemic, drastic measures were taken in order to reduce the spre
The aim of this study is to investigate how documents regulating municipal work related to housing provision are shaped, and how they utilize concepts of “need” and “demand”. Interviews with municipal planners are conducted to deepen the understanding of the municipal role in Swedish housing provision today. This understanding is crucial in discussions between public and private actors, which are
In this article we discuss how two types of popular romances – the desert romance and the governess romance – have blended into what we refer to as the desert-governess romance. In the world of romance, the governess and the sheikh may be an odd couple but they do make good bedfellows. Etymologically speaking, the governess (“A woman who holds or exercises authority” (OED)) is the perfect love matIn this article we discuss how two types of popular romances – the desert romance and the governess romance – have blended into what we refer to as the desert-governess romance.

High northern latitudes are of special importance for the global carbon budget as they store large amounts of organic matter in the soil and are expected to be the most strongly affected by climate change. Here we investigate carbon exchange in the subarctic mountain birch forest growing on the limit where tree growth is possible. The study sites are located close to the Abisko village in norther
Background and Aims The island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea had no contact with surrounding continental areas since the withdrawal of the Weichselian ice sheet at ca 17 ka BP. Plants present on Gotland must have arrived by long distance dispersal, so populations are expected to exhibit reduced levels of genetic diversity compared with surrounding mainlands. However, orchids have very small seeds, Background and AimsThe island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea has had no contact with surrounding continental areas since the withdrawal of the Weichselian ice sheet at approx. 17 ka BP.

This paper explores whether Ethiopia's rapid economic growth is transformative enough for the country to eventually catch up with high-income countries. It does so by exploring the change and continuity of four elements of social capability from 1950 to 2020: structural transformation, economic inclusion and the state's autonomy and accountability. It finds that Ethiopia's social capability modestThis paper explores whether Ethiopia's rapid economic growth is transformative enough for the country to eventually catch up with high-income countries.

In complex product development, effective integration between design and pro- duction is crucial to minimizing time and costs. This project focuses on SAAB Kockums (SK), a global player in submarine manufacturing, aiming to identify and propose improvements for the development opportunities related to the de- sign and production guidelines (KPA) for piping systems. The purpose is to explore the de
