The Department of Automatic Control at Lund University gives a project course in Systems, Control and Learning (FRTN70) twice per year. The course is given at the advanced level (7.5 ECTS credits), and the students work in small teams to achieve a common goal. The projects typically involve a real-world estimation or control problem with relevance to industrial or other applications. In this cours

INTRODUCTION: This study examined trends in socioeconomic inequalities in obesity among Portuguese women and men using data from National Health Surveys (NHSs).METHODS: We analysed weighted data from adults aged 20-64 years from the 1998/1999 (n = 20,581), 2005/2006 (n = 13,088), 2014 (n = 7284), and 2019 (n = 5959) NHSs. Obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m 2, based on self-repor
Critical scholarship has increasingly questioned the effectiveness of external menstrual health interventions in the Global South, often highlighting their lack of cultural sensitivity and potential to reinforce menstrual stigma. These critiques raise concerns not only about individual well-being, but also about broader questions of gendered inequality. Although such initiatives frequently center
Mindfulness har under de senaste åren blivit allt mer populärt i Sverige. Från att främst ha använts inom psykologin för att hantera stress och ohälsa, har det idag spridit sig till arbetsplatser och blivit en del av olika institutioner. I den här uppsatsen undersöks mindfulness ur ett sociologiskt perspektiv: hur praktiken påverkar människors värderingar, identiteter och föreställningar om sig sjMindfulness has increasingly become a popularized phenomenon in Sweden. From being integrated at workplaces and used for therapeutic purposes in psychology, the phenomenon has been institutionalized. This study is a sociological inquiry on mindfulness-related practices and how it shapes values, identities, and beliefs. Using the lens of Pierre Bourdieu’s relational sociology and the methodology of
Denna kandidatuppsats undersöker ”avförtrollning som upplysningens program” utifrån Max Horkheimer och Theodor W. Adornos tes (1944), med fokus på hur detta kommer till uttryck i den ångermanländske prästen Jöns Hornæus Sannfärdig berättelse (1740/1771). Genom en kvalitativ diskursanalys, kompletterad med en enklare kvantitativ kartläggning, analyseras Hornæus framställningar av övernaturliga väseThis bachelor’s thesis examines “disenchantment as the program of Enlightenment” through Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno’s thesis (1944), focusing on how it appears in the Swedish (Ångermanland) priest Jöns Hornæus’ Sannfärdig berättelse (1740/1771). Using qualitative discourse analysis, supported by a simple quantitative survey, the study analyzes Hornæus’ depictions of supernatural beings a
Reconstruction of indoor surfaces with limited texture information or with repeated textures, a situation common in walls and ceilings, may be difficult with a monocular Structure from Motion system. We propose a Semantic Room Wireframe Detection task to predict a Semantic Wireframe from a single perspective image. Such predictions may be used with shape priors to estimate the Room Layout and aid
The link between the structural organization of the fibrillar components of lung extracellular matrix (ECM), local tissue stiffness and global viscoelastic behaviour is not known. Here we investigated the effect of injurious mechanical ventilation on the local lung tissue stiffness using 4D synchrotron phase-contrast micro-CT, in normal lung and 7 days after intratracheal bleomycin induced lung in
Kan proteiner visa vägen till bättre plaståtervinning och en renare värld? Vissa typer av proteiner(enzymer) har under de senaste åren visat prov på nedbrytning av plast och kan därför bli en ny och hållbar metod för plaståtervinning. Mest framgångsrikt är en typ av enzymer som kallas cutinas som kan effektivt bryta ner PET, som bland annat finns i PET-flaskor. Nu visar forskning på att användninPolyolefins make up the majority of all plastics produced and can be found in a range of applications. Simultaneously, 60% of all plastics are not being recycled, and consequently are accumulating in the environment where it poses serious threats to both the environment, human health, and economies. Current attempts to address the problem have had limited success. An emerging solution is biodegrad
Cyklometallering är en kemisk reaktion där en metall och en organisk molekyl (ligand) och tillsammans bildar en ringstruktur, vilket gör det möjligt att bryta annars tröga bindningar (som kol-väte-bindningar) och skapa stabila metallorganiska föreningar med en ny metall-kol-bindning. Dessa typer av reaktioner används inom flera områden såsom framställning av läkemedel och katalys av kemiska procesCyclometallation is an important reaction and is essential in organometallic chemistry for the synthesis of stable metal-ligand frameworks and in the development of functional catalytic compounds. Although extensively studied, challenges remain in achieving selective C-H bond activation without the formation of unwanted side products. In this study, a PCP pincer ligand and subsequent cyclopalladat
Introduction: Person-centred care is being implemented in healthcare to facilitate co-created care and patients' participation in their own care. This is a new practice, also among radiographers. The aim of the study was to explore radiographers' perceptions of the framework of person-centred care and its performance in radiography.Methods: Phenomenography was the study design. Focus group discuss
Ett välkänt problem med dagens suicidriskbedömningar är att de är så osäkra. Det finns tyvärr inget riskbedömningsverktyg som kan avgöra om patienter faktiskt kommer att avsluta sina liv om de inte får vård (Runesson et al, 2017). Ett annat problem, vilket inte uppmärksammats i suicidlitteraturen men som är i fokus i denna text, är att riskbedömningar missgynnar vissa grupper. Forskning om artific
En av orsakerna till att näringslivets olika parter har svårt att se sin egen relevans och styrka i det brottsförebyggande arbetet handlar inte bara om den specifika verktygslåda de har till sitt förfogande, utan om det sätt både de och vi har kommit att tänka på och förstå vad som definierar det brottsförebyggande. Med andra ord verkar en huvudorsak till att många företagare uppfattar sig som "pr
BACKGROUND: Accurate risk stratification in older adults presenting to the emergency department (ED) is essential but challenging due to atypical presentations and age-related physiological changes. While vital signs are central to triage, their predictive value for short-term mortality in this population remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between initial vital signs and
Abstract:Concomitant chronic widespread pain (CWP) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) continues to be a problem despite modern pharmacological treatment. The overall aim was to investigate factors involved in chronic widespread pain in rheumatoid arthritis.Study I, compared patients with early RA (duration ≤12 months), in a tight control cohort, with conventionally managed patients. The pa
