Permanent deformation is the primary failure mode for the asphalt concrete (AC) pavement in urban environment. It is mainly caused by a combination of heavy traffic load, low vehicle speed and channelised traffic. A rut prediction model would therefore be a valuable tool for planning maintenance scheduling and selecting an appropriate asphalt material. This study uses the PEDRO (Permanent deformat

This article introduces the Framework for Integrating Rights and Equality (FIRE): a transdisciplinary framework that builds synergies between human rights-based (HRBA) and gender equality approaches to disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA). It describes how FIRE has been developed, tested and refined over the course of a five-year regional learning and technical coopera

There have been significant advances in the field of nanofluidics, and novel technologies such as single-cell analysis have been demonstrated. Despite the evident advantages of nanofluidics, fluid control in nanochannels for complicated analyses is extremely difficult because the fluids are currently manipulated by maintaining the balance of driving pressure. To address this issue, the use of valv

Aim: The use of pulmonary vasodilator therapy in children born preterm is largely unknown. Our aim was to map prescription patterns in children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia in Sweden. Methods: This was a descriptive national registry-based study of children <7 years who had been prescribed a pulmonary vasodilator during 2007–2017, were born preterm and classified as having bronchopulmonary dysp

Objectives:This thesis aims to provide an overview of the epidemiology of AAV in southern Sweden, to evaluate different classification criteria in AAV. In addition we study if infection is a risk factor for later development of AAV comparing patients with AAV with a matched population cohort and to examine the occurrence of severe infections as an outcome in AAV. Methods:All adult patients diagnos

Future global temperature change will have significant effects on society and ecosystems. Earth system models (ESM) are the primary tools to explore future climate change. However, ESMs have great uncertainty and often run at a coarse spatial resolution (usually about 2°). Accurate high-spatial-resolution temperature dataset are needed to improve our understanding of temperature variations and for

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common chronic neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, overactivity, and/or impulsiveness. The prevalence of ADHD varies in different settings and there have been voices raised to call for more objective measures in order to avoid over- and underdiagnosing of ADHD. Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is a method where

Self-assembled nanolines are attractive to build the technological devices of next generation, but characterizing their electronic properties is often difficult to achieve. In this work we employ angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory to clarify the electronic structure exhibited by self-assembled Bi nanolines grown on the InAs(100) surface. A surface resonance ass

Vilket utrymme är jag beredd att ge åt trosföreställningar och traditioner som inte är mina egna? Vad betyder mötet med människor av en annan tro för min egen tro? I ett alltmer mångreligiöst samhälle uppstår en mängd frågor i mötet med andra religioner – både teologiska och praktiska. Är exempelvis alla religioner likvärdiga vägar till Gud, och är det okej att delta i andra religioners ceremonier

Vertical graphene (VG) is a remarkable electrode material for supercapacitors due to its large specific area, open channel structures, and numerous exposed edges with high electrochemical activity. However, flexible supercapacitors with high rate performance based on VG have yet to be investigated. Here, we report flexible supercapacitors based on VG, carbon fabric (CF) current collector, and H2SO

I För världens skull – En festskrift till ärkebiskop Ante Jackelén reflekterar 20 forskare och författare över tro och teologi, gudstjänstglädje och pandemi, ledarskap och näthat, migration och religionsmöten. I dialog med Antje Jackeléns ärkebiskopsgärning utforskar de ämnen av avgörande betydelse för samhället och beskriver kyrkans uppdrag i en värld i behov av försoning. Boken inleds med en ski
