This paper presents a general level set framework for modelling diffusive solid-state phase transformation processes in binary systems comprising several grains and phases. Notably, it is demonstrated how the Voronoi implicit interface method (VIIM) can be used to simulate microstructure evolution in polycrystals driven by diffusion. The key advantage of VIIM is that a single level set function ca

This thesis investigates morality from a computational perspective by examining how machines can be developed with capacities for moral reasoning and action. It addresses how to overcome interdisciplinary boundaries between moral philosophy and computer science (Paper I), proposes a virtue-theoretic framework for artificial moral cognition (Papers II and III), and highlights issues of using normat

Can AI ‘solve’ politics? In this paper, I explore optipolitics, i.e., the idea that politics along with other complex social issues can be framed as mathematical optimization problems and solved as such. I begin by describing politics, optimization, and some reasons for applying the latter to the former. I then present a liberal democratic version of optipolitics and try to defend it against eight

Dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) is the most common MRI method in clinical environments for assessment of perfusion-related parameters. In this study, special emphasis was placed on the shape of the tissue residue function under different physiological conditions. DSC-MRI-based parameters assumed to reflect arterial delay and cerebral oxygen extraction were obta

The accurate representation of mixed-phase monsoon clouds and their phase distribution is of great importance for numerical models used to predict monsoon rainfall. Therefore, it is essential for these models to correctly capture the phase fraction of clouds, which includes the proportions of liquid and ice. Ice particle formation in clouds occurs through primary ice production and secondary ice p

This article conducts a multi-scalar analysis of the dynamics between secularism and religion in contemporary Sweden and highlights a growing divide between them, in the wake of neoliberal reconfigurations of the welfare state and a stronger religious pluralism in public space. Through an analysis of the public debate around conversion attempts and state funding for religious organizations, we exp

Based on a conceptualization of heteroactivism as a transnational phenomenon manifesting in local contexts to spread and express resistance to gender and sexual rights, this article aims to illuminate new dimensions of heteroactivism beyond a sole focus on gender and sexuality by bringing its specificities in the Swedish context to the fore. Drawing on digital ethnography with members of the neo-c

Acquiring and distributing essential information for understanding global biogeochemical interactions between the atmosphere and ecosystems, and how climate-ecosystem feedback loops may change atmospheric composition in the future is a fundamental pre-requisite for societal resilience in view of climate change. Particularly, the detection of trends and periodicity in the presence of greenhouse ga

The Environmental Research Infrastructure (ENVRI) community is a cluster of European research infrastructures focused on the environment and Earth system science. The ENVRI-FAIR project aims to advance the FAIRness of their data and services with emphasis on interoperability and connect the ENVRI community to the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). In this article, we present a proposal for a scie

European Environmental Research Infrastructures (ENVRIs) on the ESFRI level are core facilities for providing data, research products and services from the four subdomains of Earth system science – Atmosphere, Marine, Solid Earth, and Biodiversity/Terrestrial Ecosystems. The ENVRI Cluster represents the core component of the European environmental research infrastructure landscape, with the ENVRI

This work considers multi-material topology optimization of compliant mechanisms under transient thermal and quasi-static mechanical conditions wherein thermally actuated devices are optimized for different operating conditions. The materials are modeled using finite strain thermo-hyperelasticity and a two way coupling between the energy balance and equilibrium equations is investigated. The desig

As science and technology evolve, interdisciplinary targets are anything but static, introducing additional levels of complexity and challenging further the initiatives to break the barriers to interdisciplinary research. For over a decade the community of the Environmental Research Infrastructures, forming the ENVRI cluster, has been building strong foundations to overcome these challenges and be

In the ENVRI-FAIR project brief on implementation of Open Science and EOSC targets the current achievements and planned activities in ENVRI-FAIR are summarised with regard to a) Integration with the EOSC infrastructure b) FAIR principles implementation and repositories c) Technical, semantic, legal and organisational interoperability d) Stewardship of data and e) Cross-cluster collaboration activi
