Awarded competition proposal for Lerum (Sweden), published in AV Proyectos 036 within a curated international selection of projects. The proposal explores housing, infrastructure and landscape through a psychogeographic approach to urban development, combining residential diversity, public space and adaptive urban growth strategies. The publication includes drawings, diagrams and project material
Heatwaves increasingly challenge urban electricity networks by intensifying and reshaping cooling demand over extended periods. This study investigates how weather-informed Adaptive Reinforcement Learning for Energy Management (ARLEM), a decentralized model-free control framework, redistributes cooling demand and manages systems stress during sustained heatwaves, focusing on the roles of forecast
BACKGROUND/AIM: Determining the causation of an injury in living individuals is a key task for forensic pathologists. However, little is known about sex-based differences in injury characteristics. The study aims to examine sex-based differences in single stab injuries to the trunk among assault survivors, to potentially identify injury patterns that could aid forensic assessment and help in the m
This thesis investigates subspaces of the Hardy space, especially ones defined via analytic continuation, and their applications to operator theory. The main function theoretic properties investigated are the distribution of zeros and extremal functions. The operator theory investigations are centered around the concept of invariant subspaces and cyclic vectors.
In this chapter, we use the notion of social resilience as a heuristic device to explore the shifting boundaries between legality and illegality in the context of migration to a hybrid political regime. Our case study focuses on the creative and multifaceted ways Uzbek migrants navigate the Russian legal landscape. Drawing on the life histories of two Uzbek migrants who relocated to Moscow, we sho
BACKGROUND: Our aim was to explore the reasoning and experiences of women when offered a self-sampling HPV test.METHODS: This study implemented a qualitative study design and content analysis using an inductive approach. Data consisted of written narratives collected through open-ended questions from a total of 173 women. Women were included if they had been offered a self-sampling device since Se
The capacity for birds to adjust their breeding time to variation in spring temperature via plasticity is crucial for insectivorous passerines in temperate areas, particularly in a context of climate disruptions. Recent studies suggested that phenological plasticity varies in response to environmental change via urbanization. We investigated the effects of urbanization on laying date, its phenotyp
We investigate how differences in the stellar feedback produce disks with different morphologies in Milky Way-like progenitors over 1 ≤ z ≤ 5, using eight state-of-the-art cosmological hydrodynamics simulation codes in the AGORA project. In three of the participating codes, a distinct, rotation-dominated inner core emerges with a formation timescale of ≲300 Myr, largely driven by a major merger ev
Background Multimorbidity, the co-occurrence of two or more non-communicable diseases (NCDs), is common and has been linked to venous thromboembolism (VTE). Whether multimorbidity diagnosed in primary-care is associated with incident VTE remains unclear. We aimed to examine this association. Methods Multimorbidity was defined using Swedish primary-care data. Individuals without prior VTE were incl
PURPOSE: The systolic blood pressure (SBP) response to exercise reflects cardiovascular health, with both exaggerated and blunted responses linked to adverse outcomes. Prior studies relied typically on peak SBP or two-point slopes for evaluation. We aimed to identify distinct SBP responses from full times-series recorded during maximal, graded exercise and assess their clinical determinants and pr
Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can be easily sampled from healthy individuals and patients. Density gradient isolation from human blood or leukocyte concentrates yields a mononuclear cell population of mainly lymphocytes, monocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells. PBMCs are vital circulating cells of the immune system and rely on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) for their energy
A relationship between seismic wave velocities and the stress state of a material have been largely investigated in small scale lab experiments but never on a large field scale. For investigation of this relationship on a larger scale a 3-D seismic array have been built into a full-size railroad embankment model. Using the three component geophones with vertical and horizontal sledgehammer strikes
The escalating energy consumption of existing artificial intelligence hardware has become a serious global issue that demands immediate action. Neuromorphic computing offers promises to drastically reduce this footprint. Here, we introduce multicomponent p-type Hf(Sr,Ti)O2 thin films for energy-efficient, resistive switching–based neuromorphic devices. We demonstrate interfacial memristors with ul
Emerging evidence suggests that bidirectional lung–kidney crosstalk may influence outcomes, but this has not been systematically evaluated in unselected emergency department populations. We therefore examined the association between peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and 30‑day mortality, and tested whether the prognostic association of oxygenation wi
