The fourth issue of the yearbook History of Intellectual Culture (HIC) features a thematic section on the production of knowledge related to the Holocaust. The contributions focus on the circulation of knowledge via letters and other forms of written communication within and among survivor historical commissions after the Second World War with an emphasis on the interplay of gender and other diffe
Developing a robust decision analysis framework for selecting appropriate building envelope assemblies is essential to ensure moisture safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability. Recently, Bayat Pour et al. introduced the inutility decision analysis (IDA) method, which integrates moisture safety criteria with sustainability considerations, including economic and environmental aspects. This stud
Software analytics (SA) is often proposed as a tool to support software engineering (SE) tasks. Several secondary studies on SA have been published, some published within the same calendar year. This presents an opportunity to take a meta-perspective and examine how the field of SA has been conceptualized and synthesized so far. By analyzing how SA is defined, which topics are emphasized, what sea
This work presents an alternative cetane rating method using a production compression ignition (CI) engine, offering an accessible approach for preliminary fuel evaluation without the need for specialized equipment. As part of this work, an empirical correlation was developed linking ignition delay (ID) to both the cetane number (CN) and intake oxygen concentration. The test method follows the pri
The detection and classification of adversarial techniques from cyber threat intelligence (CTI) text is a critical task in threat analysis and mitigation. While recent transformer-based models have shown promise, their general-purpose nature often limits effectiveness on complex, domain-specific datasets. In this paper, we present a novel model designed to address the challenges of technique class
Purpose: The sugar industry is always pressured to be suitable and enhance its operational effectiveness. Digital Twin (DT) has the potential to transform this industry. However, the lack of industry-specific Key Performance Indicator (KPI) frameworks makes it challenging to implement them. This study provides a hierarchical KPI model for DT adoption in the sugar sector, interconnecting the United
Nearly 40 % of individuals will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, translating to an estimated 20 million new cases annually. Despite remarkable therapeutic advances, only 15–20 % of patients achieve durable responses to immunotherapy, and the high cost of treatment (illustrated by immune checkpoint inhibitors like pembrolizumab and nivolumab, totaling roughly $191,000 per year) remains a
Flame spread through ventilation cavities in timber facades is a serious fire safety concern in tall buildings. In this study, flame behaviour inside a particleboard cavity, resembling the ventilation cavity in a façade system, was investigated. Experiments were conducted with particleboard on one side and an inert panel on the other, across six cavity widths ranging from 10 cm to 25 cm. Variation
Background: Psychological resilience refers to a person's positive adaptation when faced with adversities, such as a breast cancer (BC) diagnosis. Highly resilient patients are more likely to regain stability and be protected from health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder. We aimed to identify epigenetic markers that distinguish high- and low-resilient patien
PURPOSE: Given the paucity of data regarding workplace risk of COVID-19, particularly from countries with limited lockdowns, we aimed to quantify the occupational risks of COVID-19-related hospital admission among workers in Sweden.METHODS: We identified 607,179 employed individuals, 20-69 years of age, in Skåne, Sweden. From December 31st, 2019-December 31st 2021, 2,633 incident COVID-19-related
Over the last two decades, the social identity of the jihadist has become a central part of street culture. Depictions of jihadists can be found in popular music, movies and media reports. Propaganda celebrating or condemning jihadism circulates online, and a significant number of individuals with a background in street crime have flirted with or converted to jihadism. Drawing on ethnographic fiel
This brief anthology begins with a basic outline of the interdisciplinary course Smart City Governance – AI Ethics in a Spatial Context, given at LTH, Lund University. Three selected student essays from the class of 2024/2025 then follow. These demonstrate the topics possible to analyse when combining engineering students from programmes on data, ICT, architecture, and land surveying with students
Wall-bounded turbulent flows are central to a wide range of engineering applications, where surface roughness can significantly influence both frictional drag and convective heat transfer. While the momentum effects of roughness have been significantly advanced in the literature, the thermal counter parts remain insufficiently understood. This study addresses the critical gap in understanding roug
Article 12 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities requires states parties to take appropriate measures to ensure that persons with disabilities have access to the support they may need in exercising their legal capacity. However, this obligation remains ambiguous. What exactly is decision-making support meant to accomplish? Until this fundamental issue has been clarified,
The purpose of this paper is to explore context adaptation of change processes in the setting of public administration. This is done by adopting a contingency approach. Thus, the research question guiding this study is: How is context adaptation enacted in change processes and what are the behavioural implications? Drawing on empirical findings from the Swedish Transport Administration, the study
This study investigates how the seven core resilience principles are integrated into assessments of forest system resilience to natural or human-induced disturbances across engineering, ecological, and social-ecological resilience concepts. Following PRISMA guidelines, a literature search in the Web of Science database using the keywords “resilience”, “forest” and “ecosystem services” yielded 1828
Background and study aims Surgical resection is standard treatment of T2 rectal cancer due to risk of concomitant lymph node metastases (LNM). Local resection could potentially be an alternative to surgical treatment in a subgroup of patients with low risk of LNM. The aim of this study was to identify clinical and histopathological risk factors of LNM in T2 rectal cancer. Patients and methods This
Field relationships and petrology of a mid Proterozoic (1624 ±6 Ma) hornblendite from southwestern Sweden demonstrate that it originated as a mafic-ultramafic hydrous melt. Lobes and veins of hornblendite penetrate the surrounding gneiss and small gneiss xenoliths lie in the main body of the hornblendite, evidence that it intruded with relatively low viscosity. The hornblendite has a composition c
Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is commonly used in the conservation of wooden artifacts, but its presence adversely affects the accuracy of radiocarbon dating. It is therefore critical to have robust methods for the removal of PEG from heritage materials. This paper presents the results of an experiment designed to test a protocol for the removal of low molecular-weight PEG-400 from conserved wood. We
