The following paper is a compilation of the ongoing Swedish PhD-project “Multifunctional streets in the city - towards a more attractive city for all users and stakeholders”. In focus are arterial streets, i.e. highly multifunctional traffic environments characterized of conflicting functions, with an extensive mix of traffic modes, activities and interests. The aim of the project is to clarify an

Deterministic lateral displacement provides a novel and efficient technique for sorting micrometer-sized particles based on particle size. It is grounded on the principle that the paths associated with particles of different diameters, entrained in flow streaming through a periodic lattice of obstacles, are characterized by different deflection angles with respect to the average direction of the c

Den här guiden ger lokala politiker och tjänstemän ett processorienterat verktyg för att stärka förankringen (integrationen) av klimatanpassning i relevanta sektorer av kommunal verksamhet, med syftet att främja en hållbar stadsutveckling. Den kan därför ses som ett instrument för att vägleda en integrationsprocess. Guiden presenterar systematiskt de nivåer och områden där förankring av klimatanpaThis guideline offers local government officers and local politicians process-oriented assistance for integrating climate change adaptation within relevant sectors of municipal administration with the aim of fostering sustainable urban development. It is thus an instrument to support leadership of this integration process. The levels and areas where integration of climate change adaptation is rele

The combustion and melt dripping of poly(ethylene-co-butyl acrylate) (EBA), EBA blended with polypropylene (EBAePP) and poly (ethylene-co-methacrylic acid) (EMAA), each blended with calcium carbonate and polydimethylsiloxane, were studied. In situ measurement of the temperature gradient in the cone calorimeter were combined with infrared spectroscopy measurements on specimens withdrawn and quenche

In this study the aim was, through interviews, to disclose 13 nurses' personal knowledge about the patients, themselves, and care provision, using a phenomenological-hermeneutic analysing method. Caring for people with severe dementia meant an intertwined life world emanating from making and doing together and the delicate interpretative work that the care provision required. The intertwined life

Hur används koldioxidbudgetar för att hushålla med kommunernas kvarstående utsläpp? Det finns endast en begränsad mängd koldioxid kvar att släppa ut om världen ska ha en trolig chans att hålla sig inom Parisavtalets målsättning om en global temperaturökning på 1,5 – 2 °C. Denna mängd finns beräknad av IPCC och benämns i deras rapporter som ”den kvarstående koldioxidbudgeten”. På senare år har detIn recent years it has become increasingly common for Swedish municipalities to calculate local carbon budgets (LCB) that reflects their fair share of the remaining common global carbon budget. The actions can be viewed as an attempt to make a fair contribution in compliance with the Paris Agreement. However, little is known about how Swedish municipalities uses their LCB:s in their daily work and

Innovation implementation is the process in between the decision to adopt an innovation until its full routinization in the organization. Based on literature gaps found on the correlation between leadership and innovation implementation, but also between leadership and radical innovation (Denti & Hemlin, 2012), the authors aim to understand “How does leadership play a role in radical innovatio

Post-heroic perspectives on leadership, which approach leadership as process, practice and a relational phenomenon, have shifted the theoretical understanding from individual characteristics to significant so-called moments of leadership, where direction emerges, and actions are re-oriented and organized. However, despite considerable theoretical development, research struggles to explore these pr

Herein we present our results on the investigation of the influence of external magnetic fields on the anisotropic collective dynamics of core/shell colloidal cubes having a hematite core and silica shell. Owing to the hematite cores, these micrometer-sized particles possess permanent dipole moments, which are at an angle with respect to the long diagonal of the cubes. As a result, they self-assem

In an era of European crises over political legitimacy, economic austerity, and collapse of confidence in the EU the topic of European integration has be-come a very emotional subject. The anger which protestors demonstrate against economic austerity, the hate which nationalist far-right parties express for the EU and fellow Europeans, and the passion with which supporters of the EU argue for grea

Evacuation drills are frequently required components of health and safety processes, but they are often documented poorly (if at all), and thus might generate very little useful or actionable information. Given how much drills cost (in terms of potential risk to participants, financial overhead of downtime and restart time, etc.) it is perhaps surprising that even large organizations often lack a

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka användandet av artificiell intelligens i rekrytering i Sverige samt att öka förståelsen för hur svenska rekryterare upplever implementeringen av artificiell intelligens i sitt dagliga arbete. Studien genomfördes som en kvalitativ intervjustudie med semistrukturerade intervjuer med nio rekryterare som, före datainsamlingen, hade implementerat artificiell inThe purpose of this study was to examine the usage of Artificial Intelligence in Swedish recruitment as well as gaining a greater understanding of how Swedish recruiters perceive and experience the implementation of Artificial Intelligence in their daily work. The study was conducted as a qualitative interview study using semistructured interviews with nine recruiters that, prior to the data colle

Denna uppsats undersöker rationaliteten i att åldersgränserna för straffbarhet och sexuell självbestämmanderätt skiljer sig åt eller sammanfaller. Sedan lång tid tillbaka har en 15-årsgräns enligt svensk rätt gällt för både straffbarhet och sexuell självbestämmanderätt. Nu föreslås däremot genom slutbetänkandet Straffbarhetsåldern (SOU 2025:11) att straffbarhetsåldern ska sänkas till 14 år för broThis essay examines the rationality of how the age limits for criminal liability and sexual self-determination coincide or differ. For a long time, Swedish law has set the age of 15 for both criminal liability and sexual self-determination. However, the final report Straffbarhetsåldern (SOU 2025:11) now proposes that the age of criminal responsibility be lowered to 14 for crimes that carry a minim

Recent advancements in integrated chemical microsystems have significantly enhanced the efficiency and precision of chemical synthesis. However, limitations in current materials and fabrication technologies pose challenges to developing robust flow regulation essential for system operation and scalability. This study presents a cleanroom-free, surface-modification-free bonding method for fabricati

Media coverage of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict does not necessarily enhance one’s knowledge or understanding of the Palestinians; on the contrary they are often reduced to either victims or perpetrators. Similarly, while many academic studies devote considerable effort to analyzing the political situation in the occupied territories, there have been few sophisticated case studies of Palestinia

This contribution presents a novel process analytical technology (PAT) software interface for online monitoring and control of commercial high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems. The developed interface is an add-on to chromatography control software and uses industry-standard bidirectional communication protocols to link sensor technologies with the individual HPLC system components in
