The paper introduces the philosophy and current status of a benchmark for the evaluation of control strategies in wastewater treatment plants and also the forthcoming developments and future perspectives. The work has been carried out within the framework of two COST Actions (682 and 624) and in close collaboration with the IWA Task Group on Respirometry. The benchmark is a platform-independent si

We show that entrepreneurs are co-located within cities. One plausible source of such spatial clustering is local social interactions, where individuals' decisions to become entrepreneurs are influenced by entrepreneurial neighbors. Using geo-coded matched employer-employee data for Sweden, we find that sharing residential neighborhood with established entrepreneurs has a statistically significant

BACKGROUND: The increasing number of survivors after childhood cancer requires characterization of the late complications of these diseases and their treatment. We examined a large number of possible socio-economic late effects following treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in order to identify factors leading to a poor outcome. PROCEDURE: All individuals who had been diagnosed with AL

One organizational innovation introduced by the clean energy for all Europeans package (CEP) is that of the energy community (EC), including the renewable energy community (REC) and citizen energy community (CEC). The translation of related directives into national legislation is underway in Sweden, and the Swedish Energy Market Inspectorate (Ei) has proposed a new law on ECs, which has been sent One organizational innovation introduced by the clean energy for all Europeans package (CEP) is that of the energy community (EC), including the renewable energy community (REC) and citizen energy community (CEC).

In this work, we rationalize the chemical pathways and kinetics of the crystallization of methylammonium lead iodide hybrid perovskite. Our approach includes a combination of analysis of solvent coordination, the structure of intermediate solvate phases, and modeling evaporation rates of precursor solutions.

Background: The protein C anticoagulant system plays a key role in maintaining the hemostatic balance. Although several studies have identified thrombomodulin gene (THBD) variants among venous thromboembolism (VTE) patients, the role of THBD in relation to VTE in humans remains to be clarified. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the thrombotic risk of rare and common THBD variants in a larg

Aims: Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a progressive condition caused by deposition of transthyretin amyloid fibrils in the heart and is associated with poor quality of life and a shortened lifespan. This study aimed to describe the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and mortality of patients with ATTR-CM, using multiple national health registers in Denmark, Finland, Norway, an

This unique collection gathers together important instruments dealing with the relationship between business and a range of topics such as labour rights, security issues, environmental protection, anti-corruption, good governance, poverty alleviation and development, which all have important human rights dimensions. The premise for the collection is that business has both the responsibility and th

Which images are made manifest across an artist’s practice and which are the ones that disappear? How do objects—whether seen or unseen—and the knowledge they possess traverse across place and time to avow their resistance? These are amongst the questions asked by artist Nour Bishouty in her artist’s book 1—130, a project that draws upon her ongoing research into the works of her father, Ghassan B

För att svensk järnvägsinfrastruktur skall kunna vara konkurrenskraftig i jämförelse med mindre miljövänliga alternativ krävs kapacitetsutbyggnad och hastighetsökning av det svenska järnvägsnätet. Vid hastigheter över 200 km/h finns krav på att dynamiska analyser behöver utföras. För vissa brotyper, exempelvis samverkansbroar med ändskärmar, är det svårt att påvisa acceptabel vertikal accelerationFor Swedish railway infrastructure to be competitive compared to less environmentally friendly alternatives, capacity expansion and speed increase of the Swedish rail network are required. At speeds above 200 km/h, dynamic analyses are required by code. For some bridge types, such as composite bridges with end screens, there are difficulties in meeting the requirements for vertical acceleration in

A knife is a tool which is used for both in- and outdoor purposes. Although wearing a knife in public areas is criminalized by Swedish law, the regulation includes several reservations about dispensations of judgement if the wearing is considered to be legitimated. The purpose of this study is to investigate and discuss the potential difficulties with the legal practice of the prohibition of knife

This thesis uses an evaluative approach to analyse the European Union’s Eel Regulation Framework (ERF). By using theories on both legitimacy and posthumanism, the aim of the study is to answer the question of in which ways the ERF can be considered legitimate with both human and non-human stakeholders in mind. As environmental issues and biodiversity loss become increasingly severe, there is an ur

Contest-based crowdsourcing is a popular method for companies to gather ideas or information in a creative way, and the contestants’ motivations to participate in such competitions are not the same. Different factors influence the willingness of contestants to participate in contests. Yet these motives are not applicable to all types of crowdsourcing. This paper investigates the motivations and fi

The genes that enable using a new host plant Insects and their host plants constitute a large share of biodiversity. This suggests that their interactions promote adaptation, leading to diversification. The development of sequencing techniques has now enabled us to address what changes in the genome enable such adaptation. In this project, I investigated the genomic basis of fly Tephritis conura

A water jet is a propulsion system for vessels. The principle of water jet is to admit water into the hull, then add head to the water via the impeller and then let the water go through a guide vane package and then discharge it at the stern. The reaction force will bring the vessel into motion.
KaMeWa Group, a Vickers company who manufactures water jet propulsion systems, initiated the work.

The main part of this work consists of the developing of software support. The lack of such support is the main problem with micro computers, independent of the hardware realization. The cross assembler developed, having a PDP 11 as host computer and KMV-version 2 as target computer, will be a great help when writing assembler programs, while the macro assembler raises the language to a higher lev
