Enzymatically Produced Liquid Crystalline Phases for Encapsulation and Extended Release of Ibuprofen and Aspartame

In order to design and investigate the effects of vegetable oil based enzymatically produced liquid crystalline phases (LCPs), oat oil with 15% and 50% polar lipids contents (PL15, PL40) and with different storage conditions were incubated with Lipozyme TL and CalB. PL40 based LCPs were further investigated incorporating 1-10% aspartame (ASP) or ibuprofen (IBU) and all of the LCPs samples were ana

Case study : is there a space for TRIZ in the era of ChatGPT?

This study investigates the integration of Large Language Models with the TRIZ to improve problem solving and innovation in industrial product development. By combining the structured problem-solving framework of TRIZ with LLMs to process large amounts of data and generate ideas, this hybrid approach seeks to overcome the limitations of traditional TRIZ and optimize solution generation. In a case

Behavioral Traces and Player Typologies in Gamified VR : Insights for Adaptive and Inclusive Design

Gamified virtual reality (VR) environments are increasingly used to enhance engagement and learning, yet most designs still adopt a one-size-fits-all approach that overlooks motivational diversity. The HEXAD framework, which classifies users into six player types, provides a promising lens for addressing this gap, but its predictive validity in immersive VR remains contested. This study investigat

Capital and Coercion : Slavery after the 1807 Import Ban in the Cape Colony

The 1807 Slave Trade Act banned slave imports across the British Empire, triggering a sharp supply shock. Using newly digitised tax censuses from the Cape Colony, this article examines how households in Stellenbosch and Graaff-Reinet adjusted. Despite stark ecological and institutional differences, both districts show similar post-abolition trajectories. This challenges models linking coercion to

Measuring the causal economic effects of scientific research : evidence from the staggered foundation of the SENAI innovation institutes in Brazil

How to estimate the economic returns of public science is a longstanding but equally challenging topic in quantitative science studies. In this paper, we exploit the staggered foundation of the SENAI Innovation Institutes (ISI) in Brazil since 2012 to estimate their effects on GDP using a difference-in-differences (DiD) approach. Building on historical and institutional insights from interviews on

This exhibition does not necessarily aim to narrate what has happened, nor to begin from scratch. The intention is rather to begin in the middle, in medias res. Or, “Half-way through the journey of our lives I found myself in a dark forest”, etc.The show has a lot to do with questioning being in midcareer. What does the shadow of ourselves that we have constructed over the years enable and frustra

Development of Fagus-dominated forest in Söderåsen National Park, southern Sweden, in response to land-use changes over the past 600 years as reflected by macrofossil, pollen and dendrochronological data

Plant macrofossil and pollen records from the partially varved sediments of Lake Odensjön in southernmost Sweden provide detailed information on local forest development and land-use history within Söderåsen National Park during the past 600 years. A relatively dense forest dominated by Fagus (European beech) covered the steep talus-dominated slopes surrounding the lake during at least a century p

Search for Light Long-Lived Particles in Formula Presented Collisions at Formula Presented Using Displaced Vertices in the ATLAS Inner Detector

A search for long-lived particles (LLPs) using Formula Presented of Formula Presented collision data with Formula Presented recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC is presented. The search targets LLPs with masses between 5 and 55 GeV that decay hadronically in the ATLAS inner detector. Benchmark models with LLP pair production from exotic decays of the Higgs boson and models featuring long-li

Contested Streets. Demonstrations in Stockholm, 1887–1920

This article examines changes in the repertoire of contention in Sweden during the crucial years of democratisation. Based on a dataset of applications to organise public marches in Stockholm 1887-1920, the study looks at the overall trends in the political use of demonstrations: which organisations applied to stage demonstrations and which organisations obtained permission from the authorities. T

Speciation of Zn in WtE fly ash residues after wet treatment

Waste-to-energy fly ash can be repurposed if treated to limit the leaching of potentially toxic elements such as Zn. Ashes with lime additives can be stabilised via gypsum formation, while those without additives are better suited for acid-leaching treatment (and material recovery). In this study, ashes from grate-fired boilers – three without lime addition and one ash with lime addition – were tr

Sowing Seeds of Change : Feminist collective action for agroecological transformation in Zimbabwe

Avhandlingen undersöker hur kvinnor i Zimbabwes jordbrukssektor tillämpar kollektivt handlande för att främja agroekologisk omvandling och utmana könsrelaterade ojämlikheter. Trots att kvinnor utgör minst 70% av arbetskraften i Zimbabwes jordbrukssektor, marginaliseras de genom ojämlik tillgång till mark, utestängning från strategiska beslut och devalvering av beprövad erfarenhet. Studien bygger pThis thesis examines how women in agricultural communities in Zimbabwe leverage collective action to advance agroecological transformation while challenging systemic gender inequities. It responds to the persistent marginalization of women in Zimbabwean agriculture by investigating how collective action reclaims agency and reshapes agroecological systems. Despite constituting at least 70 % of the

Individually fitting but collectively unfitting blame

People that produce bad outcomes can thereby become the fitting targets of blame, the fitting intensity of which is determined by the badness of the outcomes. In the following paper, I suggest that the amount of blame instances that people are fitting targets of is also determined by the weight of the badness of the outcomes. I use the example of online blame as a paradigmatic case where the amoun

Size matters : effect of screen setup on muscle activity and posture in computer work

AbstractThis research aims to investigate and compare how computers work on five different workstation setups of multiple or large screens and viewing distances (27-inch and 49-inch at 70 or 90 cm viewing distance) affect muscular load in neck/shoulders, working postures, and perceived exertions of non-presbyopic participants.

Abstract in French: Une restauratrice japonaise installée à Vientiane a lancé l’alerte après avoir vu en ligne des hommes se vanter d’avoir acheté des rapports sexuels avec des enfants. Son action a conduit Tokyo à publier un avertissement diplomatique aussi rare que direct. Derrière cet épisode, c’est tout un système d’exploitation sexuelle transnationale qui refait surface, révélant les liens pe

Is eyestrain associated with musculoskeletal strain and visual symptoms?

AbstractEyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision. The aim of this paper is to investigate the association between eyestrain and musculoskeletal strain, as well as the association between eyestrain and visual symptoms. Two regression analyses were conducted on subjective ratings Eyestrain is a common issue when performing visually demanding work, often accompanied by neck and shoulder strain, as well as visual problems such as dim vision.

Bouchra Khalili : Solo exhibition. Louisiana Museum of Modern Art

The exhibition presents a selection of works by Moroccan-French artist Bouchra Khalili (b. 1975), whose multidisciplinary practice develops collaborative strategies of storytelling with members of communities excluded from citizen membership.Combining the traditions of post-independence avant-gardes and conceptual practices, Khalili’s work suggests poetical hypotheses for newer imaginations of com

WEAVE First Light Observations: Origin and Dynamics of the Shock Front in Stephan's Quintet

We present a detailed study of the large-scale shock front in Stephan’s Quintet, a by-product of past and ongoing interactions. Using integral-field spectroscopy from the new William Herschel Telescope Enhanced Area Velocity Explorer (WEAVE), recent 144 MHz observations from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey, and archival data from the Very Large Array and JWST, we obtain new measurements of key shoc
