Children's time allocation and the socioeconomic gap in human capital

Children's time investments in various activities may be important for reducing socioeconomic status (SES) gaps in educational and mental health outcomes. Using detailed time use diaries of Australian children aged 4–14, we observe that children from low SES backgrounds spend more time on digital media and less time on out-of-school enrichment activities, organised or for leisure. We explain the S

Assessing the Combined Risk of Fire and Flood on a National Scale for Sweden

Floods and wildfires are two critical hazards that impose substantial direct and indirect costs to society, including the resource needs of rescue services. Their occurrence is strongly linked to meteorological conditions, playing a fundamental role in hazard development and assessment. These hazards are notably distinguishable due to opposing weather requirements, wet conditions for floods and dr

Large‐scale elasto‐plastic topology optimization

This work presents large-scale elasto-plastic topology optimization for design of structures with maximized energy absorption and tailored mechanical response. The implementation uses parallel computations to address multi million element three-dimensional problems. Design updates are generated using the gradient-based method of moving asymptotes and the material is modeled using small strain, non

Handling social considerations and the needs of different groups in public transport planning: a review of definitions, methods, and knowledge gaps

This paper analyses the integration of social considerations into public transport planning. It addresses the challenge of balancing social benefits against objectives such as efficiency and cost minimization. Through a literature review, this paper examines methods for assessing public transport accessibility for potentially disadvantaged groups and identifies knowledge gaps in existing research.

Lifelong Learning and Higher Education: New (and Old) Perspectives : Proceedings from the 2022 Lund University Conference on Teaching and Learning

This is the proceedings volume from the 8th biannual teaching and learning conference at Lund University, LUTL-22. The conference theme, Lifelong Learning and Higher Education: New (and Old) Perspectives, gave rise to a rich spread of presentations and discussions. The volume in your hand holds 13 contributions based on keynote addresses, papers, panels, and roundtable discussions from the confere

Now you’ve got it how are you going to use it: Innovative approaches for wheelchair training : Plenary 5, 9.00-11.00, June 21

According to the World Health Organization Wheelchair Provision Guidelines (2023) wheelchair training is a critical component of the wheelchair provision process. In fact, the guidelines ‘strongly recommend’ that training for power and manual wheelchairs needs to be provided to enable maximum use and prevent abandonment and secondary injuries. Moreover, task-specific training is particularly encouAccording to the World Health Organization Wheelchair Provision Guidelines (2023) wheelchair training is a critical component of the wheelchair provision process.

Before time powered mobility - development in typically developing infants

Background: Infants and toddlers with disabilities follows the same developmental paths as typically developing children, but build individual patterns of achievements in their own pace. Aim: To illustrate development in infants who got opportunities to experience locomotion before the age when they developed the physical abilities to move by rolling, crawling, creeping or walking. Method: Re-anal

Memetic Social Resilience? : Analysing Memes about Political Violence in Present-Day Belfast, Northern Ireland

This study is concerned with how contemporary Belfast riots are represented in digital culture, with a specific focus on how social resilience is discursively cultivated (or hindered) through memes about said political violence.While a substantial amount has already been written about everyday practices in post-conflict Belfast, less is known about how digital narratives represent and make sense o

Variability of antioxidant compounds and capacities in four wild fruits collected in different years and locations in Mozambique

This study investigated the variability of antioxidant compounds and capacity of four wild edible fruits from Mozambique: Adansonia digitata (AD), Dialium schlechteri (DS), Garcinia livingstonei (GL), and Syzygium cordatum (SC), collected over three consecutive years from seven locations. Antioxidant compounds including total polyphenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and vitamin C

Genetic and environmental influences on the stability of political attitudes

It has been established across several contexts that political attitudes are informed by heritable factors. However, it remains unclear how much of the stability we observe in political attitudes can be ascribed to environmental factors and how much of the stability is due to genetics. In this paper we show, using a unique three-wave panel dataset of twins (N = 2471) spanning ten years, that both

Insights into mechanisms of MALT1 allostery from NMR and AlphaFold dynamic analyses

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma-translocation protein 1 (MALT1) is an attractive target for the development of modulatory compounds in the treatment of lymphoma and other cancers. While the three-dimensional structure of MALT1 has been previously determined through X-ray analysis, its dynamic behaviour in solution has remained unexplored. We present here dynamic analyses of the apo MALT

Undulators for a seeded HGHG-FEL test bench at MAX-lab

Within the European FEL Design Study a seeded HGHG-FEL test bench will be set up at MAX-lab. In the modulator the 3rd harmonic of a Ti:Sapphire laser (267nm) interacts with the electron beam. In the following dispersive section the energy modulation is converted into a spatial modulation. The radiator emits at the third harmonic (89nm). The electron beam height at MAX-lab of 400mm requires a speci

Status of the MAX-II storage ring

The MAX-II storage ring is a third generation synchrotron light source recently commissioned in Lund, Sweden. A description of the ring is presented along with an evaluation of the performance during commissioning. The status and most recent results of the early stages of operation are also presented.
