This art short film examines clichéd images of vulnerable urban places in Sweden by juxtaposing stereotypes of marginalization, safety, commerce, and everyday life. The research aim is to use kitsch art and playful elements to intervene in the conventional thinking of these places as problems in the margins of society.The medium of the short film enables us to bring to life the empirical material
The research aim in this paper is to unfold the concept of the art city by examining how it emerges in local processes and sites. In particular, we are interested in how city brand narratives are artified to legitimise, authenticate and spatially organize an urban place as an art attraction for consumption and spectatorship. The paper introduces the concept of artification as a novel way of unders
This thematic session addresses the theme of the conference on “Rethinking tourism for a sustainable future” by examining the paradoxes, challenges, and possibilities of sustainable tourism as modes promotion and consumption. The session invites conceptual and empirical research papers that critically intervene in ongoing discussions on tourism as a cultural and spatial phenomenon in the intersect
This paper presents a novel approach to the modelling of failureof finger-joints in glued-laminated beams. A nonlinear strain-softening modelwith stochastic material parameters was used to characterise the failure zoneof the finger-joint. Monte Carlo simulations of the behaviour of finger-jointedlaminations and of laminated beams were performed using the finite elementmethod. Various lamination th
The bird fibulae were used for a relatively short period in the seventh century in the southern Scandinavian Late Iron Age, the Vendel Period. A close visual and contextual analysis of the bird fibulae propose that their form and decoration indicate a falconry association. Their outline and ornamentation are suggestive of raptors and the tethering of these birds in falconry practice. Their archaeo
The population is growing, and an increasing proportion of the population live in urban areas. As a consequence, human exposure to noise and vibrations is increasing. Larger and denser cities lead to a higher amount of traffic close to where people work and live. Land close to railways and heavily trafficked roads, previously left unexploited, are now being used for dwellings and offices. Vibratio
In order to increase the competitiveness of timber as a building material in outdoor applications, durability and dimensional stability must be ensured. Acetylation enables an environmentally friendly way to increase both durability and dimensional stability of wood, without introducing harmful substances to the environment. The focus of the present research is to examine the possibility of adding
A structural design process may include various load cases for which a sufficient load-bearing capacity must be demonstrated. In addition to static load cases, a verification of dynamic loads, e.g. accidental loads such as blast and impact loading, may be required. To this end, the response may be estimated using a computational model representing an idealized structure. Particularly in the concep
Inlägget diskuterar skärningspunkten mellan media och forskning med fokus på rapporteringen om explosionsvåld i Sverige och Nederländerna. Jag understryker vikten av vetenskaplig validering av data.The post discusses the intersection of media and research focusing on the reporting of explosive violence in Sweden and the Netherlands. I emphasize on the importance of scientific validation of data.

The polarization switching dynamics for Hf 1-x Zr x O 2 (HZO) integrated on InAs is studied as a function of pulse width and amplitude. Due to a mixed ferroelectric/antiferroelectric phase at x=0.8, a more gradual total polarization update is shown compared to a fully ferroelectric Hf 0.5 Zr 0.5 O 2 stack. A lowered operating voltage is achieved in Hf 0.2 Zr 0.8 O 2 by activating an inner ferroele
BACKGROUND: Patients with critical COVID-19 have a high risk of thromboembolism, but intensified thromboprophylaxis has not been proven beneficial. The activity of low-molecular-weight heparins can be monitored by measuring anti-Factor Xa. We aimed to study the association between anti-Factor Xa values and death, thromboembolism, and bleeding in patients with critical COVID-19.METHOD: This retrosp
Aim: Non-medical use of prescription opioids, such as tramadol, is a major health concern globally. in sweden, non-medical tramadol use among young people is widely recognized. this study explores the central components that characterize drug use trajectories among young people with experiences of problematic tramadol use. Methods: 24 qualitative interviews were conducted with 13 young people (age
Despite the importance of SMEs for innovation activity, questions remain concerning the determinants of their innovative performance and the role of different types of collaboration and partners. The present paper empirically analyzes the role played by different types of R&D collaborations in the persistence of SME innovative performance. We used a longitudinal database to identify all the Sw
Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) have been hailed as a game changer for the evolving climate crisis. This book provides an in-depth analysis of China’s carbon ETS, including its legal and policy frameworks, carbon market mechanisms, and international and comparative implications.With nine cutting-edge topics divided into three thematic parts, this comprehensive book probes the essential concepts, c
PURPOSE: Assessment of frailty is a key method to identify older people in need of holistic care. However, agreement between different frailty instrument varies. Thus, groups classified as frail by different instruments are not completely overlapping. This study evaluated differences in sociodemographic factors, cognition, functional status, and quality of life between older persons with multimorb
