For the experimental assessment of concrete material properties, estimating compressive strength is crucial for the calculation of structural safety and optimising testing campaigns. However, the optimal number of tests required to comply with a target reliability while balancing effort has rarely been analysed in the past. This work introduces an approach combining statistical modelling and uncer
This article examines how grassroots and community-led initiatives engage in prefigurative politics, understood as building alternative futures in the present, in response to the global plastic crisis. Engaging with work on sustainable materialism and alternative organising, we introduce the concept of prefigurative plastic politics to capture how initiatives rework material and economic relations
Much of the hype about AI exploits the fact that human cognition, language, and categorization rely on imaginative scaffolding. Some degree of metaphor and conceptual borrowing should not be seen as a methodological failure. Law does not meet AI as a blank slate. It reaches for metaphors and other imaginative patterns that make the unfamiliar legible, channeling attention toward certain features a
The shift towards remote and hybrid work enables people to pursue individual lifestyles, further away from their place of work. However, remote areas typically face challenges related to service provision and social activities. Using a qualitative case study approach, the paper investigates how circular business model innovation (CBMI) unfolds in a collaborative ecosystem of small enterprises loca
Plastic pollution has rapidly escalated into a global environmental challenge. This study aims to map the intellectual structure of highly influential plastic pollution research and examine the integration of social dimensions research into its networks. We use a systematic bibliometric analysis of high-impact plastic pollution research to map the field’s intellectual structure. From an initial co
The adoption of smart firefighting in tunnels – intended here as fire modelling coupled with sensor data - requires a broad discussion into the suitability of different tools and approaches for decision support in case of emergency. In particular, Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have shown great potential to support real-time emergency management, given their ability to simulate and predict theThe adoption of smart firefighting in tunnels – intended here as fire modelling coupled with sensor data - requires a broad discussion into the suitability of different tools and approaches for decision support in case of emergency.

The third medium contact method utilizes a fictitious “third” medium to implicitly model contact interactions. When contact occurs, the fictitious medium is severely deformed which necessitates numerical regularization to ensure numerical stability. Ultimately, this regularization should promote good element quality but otherwise not interfere with the modeling of the contact mechanics. One approa
Migrant workers have long played a central role in the global food system, yet they often remain marginal in food sovereignty discourse and practice. In this paper, we discuss why and how migrant labour is overlooked and explore ways to more effectively integrate migrant workers into food sovereignty frameworks, including debates, discourse, mobilisations, and practices. Increasing numbers of ‘wor
Lifestyle interventions tend to reduce disordered eating short-term in children, but little is known about long-term changes. This study aimed to investigate changes in appetitive traits and episodes of overeating and binge-eating up to three years after a 10-week multicomponent lifestyle camp in 7–14-year-olds. Participants were referred to the lifestyle camp due to overweight/obesity, and/or psy
Street space transformations are increasingly being used to reduce car traffic in cities. In these processes, conflict is seen to emerge unpredictably and manifest in various, sometimes unexpected ways. We aim to contribute to the understanding of these conflicts by providing a context-specific framework for analysis, based on the assumption that conflicts over street space are potentially productStreet space transformations are increasingly being used to reduce car traffic in cities.

This article investigates how social workers enact ethical judgement in digitalised welfare organisations. Drawing on the concept of ethics work, it examines how engagements with digital systems involve ongoing processes of identifying, interpreting and responding to ethically salient aspects of practice. The study is based on an organisational ethnography in Swedish social services, combining 45

Artificial intelligence (AI) shows promise in identifying psychopathology through language, but replicability in AI models remains challenging. We develop an AI-based language assessment of posttraumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD) severity and introduce the sequential evaluation with model preregistration to rigorously evaluate its validity and replicability. This design includes two phases: developme
INTRODUCTION: Improving access to genetic testing has increased the number of individuals identified with cancer genetic predisposition. Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) and Lynch syndrome (LS) are key examples of high-risk hereditary cancer syndromes. Ensuring that carriers of germline pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants (GPVs) receive evidence-based risk counseling, surveillance and
