Mobile bodies, travelling theories - Öresund / Gibraltar A webinar series on borderland formation at Europe’s antipodes 14 September, at 14.30 to 16.00 Territories beyond compare? An exploratory roundtable on the Öresund and Gibraltar borderlands Geovisualisations of borderland formation are hard to come by in both the Öresund and Gibraltar contexts. In this introductory roundtable, we ask: What e

The Sjölunda wastewater treatment plant faces the challenge of tougher demands for the quality of the water leaving the plant and entering the Öresund strait between Denmark and Sweden. At the same time, the population of Malmö with neighbourhood is growing rapidly, which means an increase in the loading on the plant. The residence time for the active microbes, the “sludge”, in the first biologicaAlthough 100 years old, the activated sludge system remains inevitable for modern wastewater treatment. Advancements within the development of mainstream nitrogen removal techniques based on anaerobic ammonium-oxidising bacteria have renewed the interest in traditional, high-loaded activated sludge systems for COD removal only. In order for activated sludge plants to be efficient in terms of energ

Sweden has during the past decades experienced increasing challenges in suburban, segregated areas: the inhabitants have different cultural and socio-economic backgrounds but despite that, face similar problems. Many inhabitants lack relevant networks as well as other opportunities to become a part of the society. These inhabitants claim they don´t have the “keys” to understand their society and i

Popular Abstract in English What is a photographic camera flash good for? The easy answer is “to illuminate”. There is more to it though: the duration of a camera flash is usually much shorter than the shutter speed of the camera. This allows us to take sharp pictures of fast objects with an inexpensive camera. Ultrafast science is based on a similar principle: no shutter is capable of opening andUltrafast science refers to physical events that happen on the femtosecond (1 fs=10^-15 s) and attosecond (1 as=10^-18 s) timescales. Generation of attosecond pulses is usually achieved by interacting high-intensity femtosecond pulses with matter (typically gases), in a process called high-order harmonic generation (HHG). Under the correct conditions, this process leads to the creation of sub-fs p

Cities are the pinnacle of human change to the environment, creating unique types of ecosystems which present many challenges to local organisms: habitat fragmentation, introduced species, and various pollutants. Being crucibles of anthropogenic effects, urban ecosystems offer opportunities to understand how humans impact nature. Moreover, since a majority of the world’s population resides in citiCities are the pinnacle of human change to the environment, creating unique types of ecosystems which present many challenges to local organisms: habitat fragmentation, introduced species, and various pollutants.

Summary This thesis is a study which primary objective is to examine the court´s risk assessment in legal custody, and contact disputes when a child is at risk of being harmed. My thesis also includes an interdisciplinary perspective to give a more detailed understanding of the process – of which consequences it entails if authorities and courts don´t make reliable risk assessments. Physical, psyc

Popular Abstract in English Bracings are structural components that assure the stability of the load bearing structures is maintained so as a desired level of load-carrying capacity of them is achieved. The present study as a whole involves investigations of either the temporary or permanent bracings that are often required during the construction phase of steel bridges. Current knowledge concerniA number of steel bridges have suffered lateral-torsional failure during their construction due to their lacking adequate lateral and/or rotational stiffness. In most cases, slight bracing can be of great benefit to the main girders involved through their controlling out-of-plane deformations and enabling the resistance that is needed to be achieved. The present research concerned the performance

The regional level in Sweden has traditionally been characterized as extremely weak in comparison to the more powerful national and local levels. Some scholars even go so far as to say that the regional level in Sweden is merely a tool of the government. When the law on structural funding partnerships was established it hence seemed as if something new had been established on the Swedish political

Detecting and forecasting riverine floods is of paramount importance for adequate disaster risk management and humanitarian response. However, this is challenging in data-scarce and ungauged river basins in developing countries. Satellite remote sensing data offers a cost-effective, low-maintenance alternative to the limited in-situ data when training, parametrizing and operating flood models.

Traditional broadcasting of sport events, such as football or icehockey games, require continuos attention of a camera operator in order to capture the area which is of interest to a viewer. In many cases, however, this is not a practical solution, due to e.g. costs, and an automated solution is preferable. The first step of such an automated algorithm is to determine what part of the scene, calle

    Welcome to the 9th Öresund Workshop on Radiotherapy, October 5-6, 2022 The annual Öresund Workshop on Radiotherapy is open for professionals and researchers at the radiotherapy-related departments in Gothenburg, Lund, Rigshospitalet and Herlev. The concept of the meeting is based on many presentations from the participants, as well as interactive sessions. It is an excellent opportunity to kee

14 april 2026 08:15 till 09:30 | Seminarium Biodiversity is being depleted. When species disappear, it affects much more than nature itself – our food supply, our livelihoods, vital ecosystem services, future medical breakthroughs and places for recreation are all at stake. The loss of biodiversity is driven by several interacting forces. Habitats are being destroyed by changes in land use, climat

This article researches what body descriptions are present within Swedish biohacking, what roots they have, and what overlaps they create between biohacking and other philosophical, political, and scientific discourses. As biohacking has become an increasingly popular subcultural influence incontemporary culture, not least when it comes to individual responsibility for ones health, the aim of the

Polyamide 6 (PA6) is known to absorb water from its environment due to its chemical structure. The water absorption leads to changes in the mechanical properties as well as an increase in volume (swelling) of the polyamide. In this work, the sorption and diffusion of water vapor are investigated through gravimetric experiments and numerical simulations. The mixture theory framework is adopted to d
