Urban transportation is becoming increasingly challenging in the face of growing cities, urban sprawl and a rising trend in car use. Beyond the direct impacts of motorized transports, the development of extensive car infrastructure exacerbates social differences, especially in urban areas. The social dimension of transport is however marginalized in the current model of transport planning and sign
Aftermath of the Tsunami disaster in 2004 and current COVID-19 pandemic, developing nations have faced serious economic disparities. Sri Lanka, an island nation in South Asia, has faced the same economic hardships that many economies face globally. The hardest-hit segment of this economic incongruences has been the marginal communities. Post-Tsunami disaster development scenarios have revealed fem
Denna studie undersöker hur det generativa AI-verktyget Gemini kan användas i gymnasieskolans engelskundervisning för att stödja elevers muntliga språkutveckling. Studien bygger på kvalitativ metod, med diskursanalys av samtal mellan elever och Gemini samt tematisk analys av semistrukturerade intervjuer. Resultaten visar att de flesta elever upplevde samtalen som positiva och att flera språkliga d
The information on Galactic assembly time is imprinted on the chemodynamics of globular clusters. This makes them important probes that help us to understand the formation and evolution of the Milky Way. Discerning between in-situ and ex-situ origin of these objects is difficult when we study the Galactic bulge, which is the most complex and mixed component of the Milky Way. To investigate the ear
A new breed of prophets-intermediaries and pastoral bros of an AI industry with metaphysical aspirations-has surfaced on the global stage during troubled times. They make great promises, offer predictions and warnings, and stake out directions for humanity. This article argues that they do so by invoking the implicit collective memory of the apocalyptic imaginary known from ancient Jewish apocalyp
En intervjustudie om hur företag implementerar och använder artificiell intelligens (AI)
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
A reduced finite element model for determining the maximum principal stress of a glass pane subjected to dynamic impact load is developed and compared to a full dynamic finite element model. The reduced model is based on the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The Ritz vectors used are determined by simple static load-cases. The model is applicable to centrically and eccentrically applied impact and to glass of
This article draws on a longitudinal and qualitative study of students in a master’s program in engineering. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to analyze annual, semi-structured interviews with ten students, from the first semester until one year after graduation. The program enjoys a high status and has a reputation of being highly demanding. The results show how the students cate
This thesis studies the complicated relationship between postwar social governance and neoliberalism. It looks at urban planning in particular because this is a key field of postwar social regulation as well as a strategic site of neoliberal reforms. The thesis examines urban planning paperwork from the Swedish city Malmö dating from the mid-1980s until 2015 with a particular focus on Folkets park
The dating of terrestrial impact craters and impact glasses that exhibit high degrees of mineralogical complexity can be problematic. However, if the maximum potential of the terrestrial impact crater record is to be realized, accurate and precise ages for crater-forming events are critical. Here we report a high-precision 40Ar/39Ar age for the Dellen impact structure, Sweden. Previous radio-isoto
Homelessness in South Africa is a multi-faceted issue with enormous dimensions; an issue which is deeply interrelated with questions of power, human dignity and social justice. In South Africa, women have been frequently neglected and marginalized with regard to contemporary housing policy and practice. In seeking to understand the nature of this marginalization, this paper focuses on structural d
