Cardiovascular diseases, affecting the heart and blood vessels, are the most common cause of death globally. However, the risk of suffering from a cardiovascular disease could decrease significantly as research improve treatment and identification of symptoms. One way to increase our knowledge and improve education of the cardiovascular system is to develop mathematical simulation models. This the

This master thesis investigates the legal foundations for training of artificial intelligence (AI) models using personal data, with an emphasis on compliance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The core issue addressed is the lack of clear legal basis for AI training processes that involve the collection and use of personal data (gathered directly or indirectly thr

Adapting to climate change is a growing policy area and today more municipalities see a future need of protecting themselves against rising sea levels, floods and higher temperatures. In 2012 the city of Malmö took a significant step when adopting a strategy plan where actions where pointed out and prioritized. But the plan was three years later neither pursued nor prolonged. By using the advocacy

What constraints and conditions are conducive to the innovation of more advanced watercraft technology? This paper explores this question by modeling ancient voyages in the Channel Island region of southern California. The Chumash and Tongva cultures of this region invented an advanced form of boat, the sewn plank canoe, around 500 CE. This new technology led to a rapid increase in maritime travel

Based on repeated surveys of the vascular plant flora in 120 hectar plots in the province of Scania, southern-most Sweden, and analyses based on species-specific traits and ecological indicator values, it is concluded that significant changes have taken place 2018–2020 but that they probably mostly reflect the effects of the extremely dry and hot summer of 2018. Species richness has increased sign

Nanoindentation is a useful experimental method to characterize the micromechanical properties of materials. In this study molecular dynamics and peridynamics are used to simulate nanoindentation, with a spherical indenter targeting a thin single crystal Cu film, resting on an infinitely stiff substrate. The objective is to compare the results obtained from molecular dynamic simulations to those oNanoindentation is a useful experimental method to characterize the micromechanical properties of materials.
