En stad är ett mångfasetterat och svårbestämt begrepp och på samma vis blir därför speglingarna av staden mångfasetterade. Som om stadens invånare vid samma tillfälle såg inte en, utan flera städer samtidigt, och där speglingarna utgör samtidens motsägelsefulla bilder av en och samma stad. Många– författare, journalister, forskare, musiker och filmare – har visat sitt intresse för Malmö. Ändå finn
Transparency has emerged as a fundamental component of ethical AI guidelines around the world. In the European Union (EU), it is recognised as one of the core principles for fostering Trustworthy AI, and serves as a cornerstone in building an ecosystem of trust within the AI governance framework.However, to support these ambitious policy objectives, the concept of transparency must be translated i
Topology optimization is a mathematical tool for the computational design of structures,particularly valuable in the early stages of the design process. Gradient-basedoptimization methods, combined with finite element analysis, form the foundation ofan iterative procedure where the design is continuously updated and evaluated. To expandthe applicability of topology optimization, this thesis explor
Denna avhandling är en sammanläggningsavhandling som består av tre enskilda forskningsartiklar som undersöker om och hur de inflytelserika åren, negativa händelser och kollektiva kriser påverkar social tillit – tron att dom flesta människor går att lita på. Trots det omfattande vetenskapliga intresset för social tillit, baseras större delen av tidigare forskning om hur social tillit formas över liThis dissertation is a compilation thesis comprised of three individual research articles that explore whether and how the impressionable years, detrimental events and collective crises predict social trust – the belief that most people can be trusted. Despite the widespread scholarly interest in social trust, most previous research in the formation of social trust over the life-course is based on
Having a child with a disability undoubtedly affects parents in many ways, including their well-being. However, the specific mental health trajectories of parents, differentiated by the severity of impairments and parental roles, remain under-explored. We investigate the mental-health effects of having a child with a disability. Using individual-level register data from Sweden, we exploit the epid
In this chapter, we evaluate how the concept of the entrepreneurial ecosystem - a systemic approach to regional economic development that is receiving increased attention from both policymakers and academics - can assist in analysing and understanding the informal economy. We argue that despite the focus of entrepreneurial ecosystems on high-growth entrepreneurship, the ‘systemic’ perspective of t
J. S. Wilson proved in 1971 an isomorphism between the structural lattice associated to a group belonging to his second class of groups with every proper quotient finite and the Boolean algebra of clopen subsets of Cantor’s ternary set. In this paper we generalize this isomorphism to the class of branch groups. Moreover, we show that for every faithful branch action of a group G on a spherically h
Being the most common of the upper extremity fractures, the distal radius fracture rightfully earns its attraction. In a global population rapidly growing older, the number of patients with a distal radius fracture will increase. Innovative devices have been developed in the last few decades to restore the anatomy. The well-trained surgeon has all the options to fix the majority of fractures in an
Esophageal lesions are common findings in disorders of the digestive tract in patients living with HIV, the most typical symptoms being odynophagia and/or dysphagia. This article provides a narrative review of the spectrum of esophagitis in patients living with HIV, focusing on fungal, viral, bacterial and non-infectious etiologies, as well as co-infections with viral hepatitis viruses. The articl
Introduction: The healthcare sector is globally experiencing increasing demands and workplace interventions on an organisational level is sought to create healthy workplaces. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of Nordic research on the work environment and health of healthcare professionals, with a focus on identifying organisational-level risk and health-promoting factors. Methods:
In electric passenger vehicles with modest performance the drivetrain usually consists of one inverter, one electrical machine and a single-speed transmission. The inverter is typically a two-level inverter using either Si IGBT transistors with an anti-parallel Si diode, or a SiC MOSFET transistor with or without an anti-parallel diode. The benefits of selecting SiC MOSFET as semiconductor technol
This thesis comprises three self-contained chapters that explore how individual behavior, incentives, and institutional frameworks shape the allocation of scarce resources, with particular emphasis on healthcare markets. The first chapter examines the impact of intrinsic truth-telling preferences on consumer welfare within a priority pricing mechanism, in which individuals can gain faster access t
With the growth of e-commerce, understanding the nuances of packaging performance and consumer expectations has become essential to enhancing the customer experience. In e-commerce, packaging is a key component of the overall consumer experience, directly influencing perceptions and expectations. Despite its importance, packaging often remains overlooked and is significantly understudied. This exp
Introduction: Discordant results between cystatin C and creatinine in estimating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are an important medical issue. However, the equation that should be used when GFR estimates are discordant remains unclear. Methods: This cross-sectional analysis included 15,485 participants with GFR measured by the clearance of an exogenous marker, serum creatinine, and cystatin C.
The AI Act marks a new chapter in AI governance, affecting companies around the world seeking to offer their services within the European Union. This study focuses on the comprehensive AI Act requirements set out for high-risk AI systems. We explored the perceived compliance challenge for the AI Act's high-risk requirements and associated contributing factors; the AI Act's impact on industry in te
