The free and open source software tool ADAPT (A Diversely Applicable Parameter Identification Tool) for the inverse parameter identification of constitutive material models is presented and applied in combination with Finite Element (FE) simulations. Different types of input data, namely integral data such as forces and field data such as displacement and strain fields, are considered within a mul
We provide the theoretical foundation for the recent tests of equal forecast accuracy and encompassing by Pitarakis (2023) and Pitarakis (2025), when the competing forecast specification is that of a factor-augmented regression model. This should be of interest to practitioners, as there is no theory justifying the use of these simple and powerful tests in such a context. In pursuit of this, we em
This chapter analyses floating charges in the Nordic countries, focusing on Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. Nordic property laws are known for their functional approach, and while property law rules in the Nordic countries are generally fragmentary, Nordic security rights laws are more codified. The four Nordic countries all have floating charges (or equivalent security rights). The chapter d
Each of the Editors and the Chairperson of the Global Working Group (GWG) on Salutogenesis were given space to individually express their opinion on the Future Challenges for Salutogenesis.
Alternative organizations must continuously address conflicts that emerge regarding diverging prioritizations and interpretations of autonomy, solidarity, and responsibility. We explore how tensions around alternative moral principles can be navigated through relational processes that attune to others' needs, emotions, and concerns. Building on an organizational ethnography of a cooperative campai
Background: Serological response is an important aspect of COVID-19, especially for evaluation of vaccine effect and risk of severe infection. The gold standard to assess this is analysis of neutralization capacity, but such assays are not widely available, with antibody levels often used as an approximation of the neutralizing ability. Avidity index is a measure of antibody function and avidity m
Årets vårexkursion gick till Kullaberg i Skåne den 25–27 april under ledning av Ulf Arup och Lars Salomon. Hela helgen ägnades åt de två stora naturreservat Västra och Östra Kullaberg som Ulf inventerat på mark- och stenlavar under flera års tid och där Lars inventerat epifytiska lavar. Med så många skarpa ögon på plats blev det naturligtvis även en del nya arter för området.
We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Podarcis erhardii (Erhard's wall lizard; Chordata; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Lacertidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,495.98 megabases and 1,477.75 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.28%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffol
På uppdrag av Höganäs kommun och Länsstyrelsen i Skåne har Västra och Östra Kullabergs naturreservat, Brunnby socken i Höganäs kommun i Skåne, inventerats på mark- och stenlavar. Projektet har utförts i etapper mellan 2016 och 2023 där ett delområde inventerats per år. Totalt har således åtta delområden undersökts, fyra i Västra och fyra i Östra Kullaberg. Varje delområde har inventerats genom fri
Efficient management of on-demand delivery systems is essential for modern urban logistics, especially in densely populated cities with complex spatial layouts. This study introduces a novel, computer-supported cooperative framework that utilizes Infomap-based hierarchical community detection to analyze spatial multilevel clustering patterns. The experiment was conducted to large scale on-demand d
Cubosomes are self-assembled lipid nanoparticles with a unique structure that hold significant promise for drug delivery. Cubosomes can encapsulate and transport a wide range of pharmaceuticals and imaging agents, potentially enhancing targeted therapies and medical imaging applications. Although there is growing interest in using cubosomes as drug delivery vehicles, their interactions with biolog
Background: A wrist-worn wearable device for acquiring limb and chest ECG leads (wECG) may constitute a promising approach to detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it remains to be demonstrated whether the information conveyed by the wECG is sufficient for AMI detection. Objective: To explore explainable machine learning models for detecting AMI using the wECG. Methods: Two type
Background and Aim: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is characterized by abdominal pain and altered bowel habits. Overweight and poor nutrient intake has been described in these patients. The aim of the study was to estimate nutrient intake in IBS, and to relate symptoms with nutrient intake and weight. Methods: Patients with IBS diagnosed according to Rome IV, without other severe diseases, complet
Diamond X-Ray Beam Position Monitors (XBPM®) can be used at beamlines of Synchrotron Light Sources for the measurement of the beam position and beam intensity. The accurate calculation of the beam position and intensity relies on the precise and fast readout systems for the current signals of an XBPM®. XANDY, the X-Ray Beam Position Monitoring System by CIVIDEC, measures the beam position and inte
Violent offenders are a heterogeneous group where criminogenic needs often are substantial and violent behaviors persistent. Risk, Need, and Responsivity (RNR)-based treatment has shown effect on reducing the risk for recidivism in violent crime, but the development of novel treatments is crucial in making the change process more effective. Virtual Reality (VR) technology may be a tool to improve
For circular retail models to successfully replace linear consumption in the future, retailers must understand the lived reality of second-hand customer journeys. However, existing customer journey mapping methods often fail to capture the non-linear, phygital, and multi-retailer nature of such journeys. This article introduces ‘messy customer journey self-mapping’, a novel qualitative method desi
