Land use allocation (LUA) is of prime importance for the development of urban sustainability and resilience. Since the process of planning and managing land use requires balancing different conflicting social, economic, and environmental factors, it has become a complex and significant issue in urban planning worldwide. LUA is usually regarded as a spatial multi-objective optimization (MOO) proble
Non-smooth convex optimization problems occur in all fields of engineering. A common approach to solving this class of problems is proximal algorithms, or splitting methods. These first-order optimization algorithms are often simple, well suited to solve large-scale problems and have a low computational cost per iteration. Essentially, they encode the solution to an optimization problem as a fixe
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) as conventionally defined is a chronic condition (typically >3 months duration) incorporating reproducible symptoms of orthostatic intolerance (including dizziness/lightheadedness, and near-syncope) in the absence of orthostatic hypotension (i.e., absence of a sustained systolic blood pressure drop >20mmHg with upright posture). 1-10 More recently
Mali and Somalia have both suffered determined Islamist-inspired insurgencies, and in both African Union-led peace operations have been a central pillar in political and security stabilization efforts. Despite challenges in transferring lessons between unique situations, the AMISOM experience can offer some useful lessons for Mali. We have identified several themes that helped to drive success for
Small area childhood stunting risk estimations remain a critical tool for shaping the surveillance policies of such a public health concern. With classical statistical methods, stunting risk metrics are mainly reported at a national level, which inhibits fine-scale insights at a more localized level. To this end, we implemented a novel multilevel small area estimation (SAE) approach for effectivel
Solar energy is an important source of clean energy to combat climate change issues that motivate the establishment of solar farms. Establishing solar farms has been considered a proper alternative for energy production in countries like Mozambique, which need reliable and clean sources of energy for sustainable development. However, selecting proper sites for creating solar farms is a function of
Environmental changes over time and across different regions profoundly affect agriculture, forestry, water management, public health, and ecosystems. Therefore, monitoring these fluctuations is crucial for informing decision-making and developing strategies for long-term sustainability. While ground-based methods provide valuable insights into environmental dynamics, they are inherently limited i
The judgments of the European Court of Human Rights manifest a mixture of factual and legal causation, when the Court reasons whether omissions should be the basis for breach of positive obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights. However, considerations that can be generally framed as normative govern the reasoning, which implies domination of legal causation. Yet, the Court still
In North and East Syria—also known as Rojava—the convergence of war, politics, and environmental challenges presents a complex and pressing reality. This blog is dedicated to exploring these interlinked issues, highlighting how conflict and ecological degradation are deeply connected, and how these dynamics affect communities in varied and unequal ways.
Approaches integrating interdisciplinary perspectives are necessary to address current and future health and environmental challenges. Many policy initiatives have embraced more holistic approaches to tackle these challenges, e.g., the One Health concept, the Farm to Fork (F2F), Biodiversity and Chemical strategies within the European Green Deal and the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Navigating conflicting interests in regards to land usage is an essential task in the field of urban planning. When the planner's task changes however to become a job of identifying the best available central location for new large scale infrastructure, the navigating instead turns into a question of who is to be displaced. This study examines a case study in Lund, Sweden, where a new generati
This thesis examines communal living as a vision for future living. It covers historical communal living and its translation into modern-day practices. It explores our needs within communal living spaces along with the challenges they bring and investigates how design can balance private and communal spaces to support our evolving needs. The project outcome is a privacy sofa designed to support f

Nordigården & Rehme LTU 2014 LTHs 8:e Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens, 17 december 2014 Sammanfattning—Syftet med detta papper är att visa på lärdomar och fallgropar vid utvecklingen av casebeskrivningar utifrån examensarbeten. Att utveckla casebeskrivningar ger för läraren en god insikt hur ett case kan användas i utbildningssammanhang men är resurskrävande. För att på en kontinuerlig bas kunna
