Flera stora byggprojekt pågår och planeras i Sverige, varav flera är skattefinansierade. Det ligger därför i både samhällets och byggbranschens parters intresse att utveckla kunskapen kring hur stora byggprojekt organiseras och leds, aktat de många samhällsförändringar som Sverige genomgått de senaste decennierna. Denna studie har följaktligen studerat hur olika samhällsförändringar påverkat förut
for clarinet, bassoon, horn and trumpetImpossible colors is not a hypothesis, but rather more hyperbole. In this musical piece "impossible colors" refer to illusions of timbre in sound, not vision. Impossible colors are colors that we do not normally see; that some fictional colors are beyond the functional perceptual space of humans. Some theories looking at forbidden colors, borrowed from color
Motivated by the need for realistic, dynamically self-consistent, evolving galaxy models that avoid the complexity of full, and zoom-in, cosmological simulations, we have developed Nexus, an integral framework to create and evolve synthetic galaxies made of collisionless and gaseous components. Nexus leverages the power of publicly available, tried-and-tested packages: the stellar-dynamics, action
The world is suffering from increasing weather extremes caused by climate change of which the building sector is a major contributor. There is however a large reduction potential in the sector and circular economy has received increased attention both within research and practice. This study explores circular futures within the building sector through the futures studies method of backcasting. Two
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: To assess the benefits and harms of infant positioning, nesting, and swaddling for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants.
The discussion of the digital divide and digital inclusion has extended to older adults. Although knowledge on the digital divide and digital inclusion among native older adults has increased substantially, little is known about the situations of older immigrants in relation to the digital divide. This paper employed the scoping review approach to map the situations and research methods of the dig
This article provides a new argument and a new value-theoretical ground for person-centered care and shared decision making that ascribes to it the role of enabling rational choice in situations involving clinical choice. Rather than referring to good health outcomes and/or ethical grounds such as patient autonomy, it argues that a plausible justification and ground for person-centered care and sh
Blood biomarkers have emerged as accessible, cost-effective, and highly promising tools for advancing the diagnostics of Alzheimer's disease. However, transitioning from cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers to blood biomarkers—eg, to verify amyloid β pathology—requires careful consideration. This Series paper highlights the main challenges in the implementation of blood biomarkers for Alzheimer's diseas
Background & objectives: Endoscopy is the current gold standard for evaluation of disease activity in ulcerative colitis. The Mayo Endoscopic Subscore (MES) is commonly used for quantifying disease activity, but it has several weaknesses. Numerous new endoscopic indices have been developed but none of these have been widely implemented, likely due to limited feasibility. The primary objective
The development of immersive visuoauditory media brings to the fore several design challenges concerning cognitive human factors, such as visual perception, embodied interaction, and emotional engagement. With a focus on visual perception, our research emphasises a systematic study of embodied multimodal interaction in immersive settings and provides a cognitive model of visuospatial complexity th
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of multisensory stimulation compared to any single sensory intervention or standard care for physical and neurological development in preterm infants.
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To evaluate the benefits and harms of olfactory stimulation with different odorants in the NICU for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants.
Human–robot collaboration (HRC) in manufacturing environments requires that physical safety can be guaranteed. Control methods that implicitly regulate the interaction forces between a controlled robot and its environment, such as impedance control, are often used for safety in HRC. However, these methods could be complemented by restricting the robot operational space for additional safety guaran
At a large tunnel project in Southern Sweden a number of geoelectrical and IP imaging were carried out. The tunnel is drilled through a horst with a complex geology which includes fractures, high water content and weathered zones. The measurements where carried out to compile a geologic model to use in the further planning of the project. The resistivity and IP complements each other very well sin
The direct and inverse scattering problems for a plane-stratified viscoelastic medium excited by a transient plane wave of SH or P-SV type are treated. The viscoelastic medium is characterized by two time and space dependent memory functions and a spatially dependent density. The direct and inverse problems are solved by a time-domain wave propagator method that is related to the Green functions t
Lund University, Sweden, is developing a video analysis system for making long-term behavioural studies, primarily in complex urban environments. Road users are detected using the KLT (Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi) interest point tracker. Trajectories are estimated using foreground–background segmentation, whereas speed is estimated using the shape analysis of interest points. The extracted trajectories ar
