- 2032
-
Ingår i: Craniomaxillofacial research & Innovation. ; 8:1-6
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Present a case of a young patient with bilateral bony ankylosis of the TMJ with zero mouth opening treated with TMJ prosthesis.MethodsThe ankylosis was studied in detail with computed tomography (CT) and we used virtual surgical planning in the pre-operative phase to provide splints and cutting guides. The patient was treated with bilateral custom-made alloplastic TMJ prosthesis.ResultsOptimal functional improvement at the 5.5 year follow up after total joint reconstruction without any adverse effects. Mouth opening was 35 mm and the patient was free from pain. CT-images showed no signs of pathology or increased remodeling and bone formation.ConclusionAnkylosis of the TMJ in young and adult population presents unique challenges given the need to account for growth of the mandible and anatomical variations. This report supports the use of total joint reconstruction for end-stage TMJ disease.

A Systematic Review of Parental Self-efficacy Among Parents of School-Age Children and Adolescents
- 2029
-
Ingår i: Adolescent Research Review. - : Springer. - 2363-8346 .- 2363-8354. ; 9:1, s. 75-91

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- What function does parental self-efficacy have for parenting behaviors and children's adjustment, and what explains individual variations in parents' self-efficacy? Parental self-efficacy involves parents' beliefs about their influence on their children and this systematic review presents results from 35 empirical studies published between 2003 and 2022 among parents of school-aged children and adolescents. First, the studies in this review show a bi-directional association between parental self-efficacy and positive parenting, and some empirical evidence that parental self-efficacy influences children indirectly, via parenting. The few longitudinal studies examining associations between parental self-efficacy and child behaviors suggest that self-efficacy might emerge as a reaction to children's behaviors. Second, many child, parent, and sociocultural factors were shown to predict parental self-efficacy (e.g., child gender and age, parents' psychological well-being, and socio-economic status), and results suggest that these associations are similar across multiple countries and age groups. Finally, studies reporting on parental self-efficacy at different time points or a correlation between self-efficacy and the child's age suggested that parental self-efficacy decreases over the school-age and adolescent period. This review shows the complex role of parental self-efficacy in associations with parent and child factors, and it also highlight questions to address for future research.

Deadline-constrained security-aware workflow scheduling in hybrid cloud architecture
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Future Generation Computer Systems. - : Elsevier B.V.. - 0167-739X .- 1872-7115. ; 162
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A hybrid cloud is an efficient solution to deal with the problem of insufficient resources of a private cloud when computing demands increase beyond its resource capacities. Cost-efficient workflow scheduling, considering security requirements and data dependency among tasks, is a prominent issue in the hybrid cloud. To address this problem, we propose a mathematical model that minimizes the monetary cost of executing a workflow and satisfies the security requirements of tasks under a deadline. The proposed model fulfills data dependency among tasks, and data transmission time is formulated with exact mathematical expressions. The derived model is a Mixed-integer linear programming problem. We evaluate the proposed model with real-world workflows over changes in the input variables of the model, such as the deadline and security requirements. This paper also presents a post-optimality analysis that investigates the stability of the assignment problem. The experimental results show that the proposed model minimizes the cost by decreasing inter-cloud communications for dependent tasks. However, the optimal solutions are affected by the limitations that are imposed by the problem constraints.

Reconstructing of the radiation condition and solution for a variable coefficient Helmholtz equation in a semi-infinite strip from Cauchy data on an interior segment
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications. - : ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE. - 0022-247X .- 1096-0813. ; 541:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We consider the Helmholtz equation with a variable coefficient in a semi-infinite strip. Homogeneous Neumann conditions are prescribed on a part of the boundary of the strip. Our aim is to find the unknown function in the Dirichlet boundary condition on the remaining part of the boundary from measurements taken on a segment inside the semi-infinite strip. We assume that the radiation condition at infinity is unknown and must be found also. The main difficulty here is the variable coefficient in the Helmholtz equation which does not allow to apply the method of separation of variable as was done in [2]. Such problems appear in acoustics to determine acoustical sources and surface vibrations from acoustic field measurements in non-uniform mediums. We split the problem in two parts. One consists of finding the radiation condition and this problem is well-posed. We derive the equation for finding the parameter of the radiation condition, that holds at infinity. The second one is to find the Dirichlet data and this problem is ill-posed. We present an operator equation with compact operator for finding the Dirichlet data. (c) 2024 The Author(s).

Childism, Intersectionality and the Rights of the Child : The myth of a happy childhood
- 2025
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book is the first to comprehensively develop the concept of childism to understand, study and analyse age-based discrimination against children.It presents a critical theory to help comprehend intersecting prejudice against children and to examine the weak implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), and in what ways violations against children can be analysed through the intersections of racist, sexist and ableist discrimination. The book further offers scholars a new perspective when studying structural forms of discrimination and oppression against children and provides professionals with a new vocabulary on prejudice targeting children when assessing theory, policy and praxis on ‘child-friendly’ and ‘child-centred’ initiatives that overlook the need to protect children against discrimination.This book will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of human rights, child and youth studies, education, prejudice studies, the United Nations and child law, and more broadly to sociology, social policy, psychology, and social work.

A classification of polyharmonic Maaß forms via quiver representations

Ingår i: Journal of Algebra. - 0021-8693 .- 1090-266X. ; 661, s. 713-756
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We give a classification of the Harish-Chandra modules generated by the pullback to SL2(R) of polyharmonic Maaß forms for congruence subgroups of SL2(Z) with exponential growth allowed at the cusps. This extends results of Bringmann–Kudla in the harmonic case. While in the harmonic setting there are nine cases, our classification comprises ten; A new case arises in weights k>1. To obtain the classification we introduce quiver representations into the topic and show that those associated with polyharmonic Maaß forms are cyclic, indecomposable representations of the two-cyclic or the Gelfand quiver. A classification of these transfers to a classification of polyharmonic weak Maaß forms. To realize all possible cases of Harish-Chandra modules we develop a theory of weight shifts for Taylor coefficients of vector-valued spectral families. We provide a comprehensive computer implementation of this theory, which allows us to provide explicit examples.

Corporate Criminal Liability : Two Nordic Solutions
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Corporate Criminal Liability and Sanctions. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 9781032349961 ; , s. 51-61
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this chapter, the systems of Corporate Criminal Liability in four Nordic jurisdictions are examined, as interesting examples of the challenges - and possibilities - of Corporate Criminal Liability. It is argued that a credible model of attributing action to the company must be established, if a criminal sanction against a company is to be understood as a punishment in the sense that it attributes blame. In that regard, attribution can be based either on identification or on a concept of corporate negligence. Identification, where the actions of a representative of a company are attributed directly to the company, does not offer any considerable normative challenges. When corporate negligence is considered, however, the Nordic countries differ in an interesting way. Denmark and Norway share a system of primary corporate criminal liability, where the actions of several individuals can be cumulated and attributed to the company in a way where the company appears to be a genuine actor. Once cumulated, there is very limited room for the company to argue that it has not acted negligently. Sweden and Finland, on the other hand, in principle understand Corporate Criminal Liability as accessory to the crimes of individuals. In order to attribute such crimes, a test of corporate negligence is then employed, where it is determined whether the company has negligently failed to prevent the crimes of the individuals. While the accessory solution in Sweden and Finland appears to be an unnecessary limitation, the negligence test employed in those jurisdictions appears as an interesting model for understanding what it might mean to attribute blame to a company in the Criminal Law, and, in a deeper sense, for a concept of corporate guilt.

Securing Industry 4.0: Assessing Cybersecurity Challenges and Proposing Strategies for Manufacturing Management
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Cyber Security and Applications. - 2772-9184. ; 3
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Industry 4.0 represents the foundation of the fourth industrial revolution, characterised by the integration of innovative technology into the manufacturing process. This integration enhances automation, diagnostics, data analysis, and autonomous decision-making through the networking of equipment and machinery. However, the increased reliance on technology raises concerns about the implementation and maintenance of cybersecurity. This paper aims to address cybersecurity challenges in the manufacturing industry and suggest strategies to reduce risks. In particular, it examines the level of awareness and understanding of cybersecurity issues among manufacturing employees, establishes accountability for cyberattacks, and evaluates the effectiveness of existing industry practices. The current cybersecurity landscape in the manufacturing industry was thoroughly analysed. Data were gathered through surveys, interviews, and case studies to measure awareness, identify knowledge gaps, and assess existing practices. The research findings indicate a significant knowledge gap regarding cybersecurity among manufacturing employees. This vulnerability can be attributed to the lack of funding and training, especially compared to the resources provided to information technology departments and corporate employees. The study emphasises the importance of redirecting cybersecurity resources and protocols towards the manufacturing industry. This paper puts forward a series of recommendations to mitigate risks and safeguard the manufacturing industry.

Evaluating edge joint preparation impact on penetration depth in laser-arc hybrid welding
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Optics and Laser Technology. - : Elsevier Ltd. - 0030-3992 .- 1879-2545. ; 181:part A
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Nowadays, conventional welding technologies such as submerged arc welding (SAW) are still used in most heavy-steel industries. This type of traditional technology means that welding takes up a large part of the productive time. As a solution to this problem, there are welding methods, such as Laser-Arc Hybrid Welding (LAHW), that have the potential to reduce the cost of manufacturing large steel structures. This is possible due to the reduced number of weld passes required to join thicker steel sections, as large thicknesses can be welded in one or a few passes.A problem with LAHW is achieving satisfactory quality. For this reason, it is essential to study the starting conditions, e.g. edge joint preparation. The target of this research work is to find out the relationship between the penetration value of the weld bead obtained and the edge joint preparation. The evolution of the molten pool and the behavior of the molten material in the joint is discussed for the different edge joint preparation configurations. The effect of the roughness is that it affects the wetting of the molten material in the joint, which would affect the penetration result, together with the gap and air volume gap used in the joint. Cut-wire is also used in the research, in samples that presented a larger air volume gap. The behavior of the molten metal inside the joint in this case is also discussed. In addition, the quality of the weld beads has also been determined by making macrographs, microstructural analysis, X-ray, microhardness profiles, tensile test and Charpy test. Some pores and cracks have been found, although destructive tests show adequate behavior of the weld bead. It is possible to elucidate from the findings that as the roughness, gap and/or air volume gap of the edge joint increases, the penetration value obtained increases. Cut-wire samples obtained full penetration.

Flipped non-associative polynomial rings and the Cayley-Dickson construction
- 2025
-

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We introduce and study flipped non-associative polynomial rings. In particular, we show that all Cayley–Dickson algebras naturally appear as quotients of a certain type of such rings; this extends the classical construction of the complex numbers (and quaternions) as a quotient of a (skew) polynomial ring to the octonions, and beyond. We also extend some classical results on algebraic properties of Cayley–Dickson algebras by McCrimmon to a class of flipped non-associative polynomial rings.

Response surface methodology to optimize membrane cleaning in nanofiltration of kraft black liquor
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Separation and Purification Technology. - 1383-5866. ; 354
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Better understanding of membrane fouling and cleaning can help implementation of membrane filtration processes in the pulp and paper industry. The aim of this study was to optimize membrane cleaning in the nanofiltration of kraft black liquor ultrafiltered permeate for the recovery of lignin. This work wants to assess whether the cleaning process removes the main foulants; as well as the economic viability of the optimized cleaning compared to a standard cleaning in a nanofiltration membrane plant on industrial scale. The optimization of membrane cleaning was investigated using the response surface methodology. The factors studied were time, temperature, and cleaning agent (Ultrasil 110) concentration, and flux recovery was used to evaluate the success of cleaning. Experiments were performed on laboratory scale where flat-sheet polymeric membranes were fouled with kraft black liquor ultrafiltered permeate and cleaned using various combinations of the three factors. The model developed predicted a flux recovery of 88 % when cleaning was performed for 60 min with a solution of 0.8 wt% Ultrasil 110 at 40 °C. The flux recovery measured experimentally with these cleaning parameters was 80 %. Scanning electron microscopy combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis confirmed that the optimized cleaning removed the main foulants from the membrane surface. Moreover, increasing the cleaning agent concentration or the cleaning temperature did not always lead to a higher flux recovery. The techno-economic evaluation revealed that 16 % of the cleaning costs could be saved by optimizing the cleaning process.

The Multifaceted Seafarer: An Explorative Discourse Analysis of Seafarers’ Portrayals in Swedish Maritime Magazines
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Ocean and Society. - : Cogitatio Press. ; 2
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Seafaring is a highly male‐dominated occupation. Within the industry, there is an ambition to increase the proportion of women working in maritime professions. In this endeavor, it is relevant to examine how seafarers are portrayed in various contexts. This study aimed to explore the image of seafarers as presented in Swedish maritime magazines: How are seafarers described, and can these descriptions be seen as performative in shaping a professional identity? To meet this aim, a discourse analysis was performed, based on 20 texts from two maritime magazines, representing both rating and officer seafarers. Overall, six subject positions inhabited by seafarers were identified, with several overlapping characteristics. For example, traits of the traditional seafarer were also found in the masculine seafarer and the flexible seafarer. Furthermore, it is argued that several of the subject positions are difficult to combine with what is referred to as the gender‐equal seafarer, mainly due to challenges in balancing family life with extended periods at sea. The study shows that today’s seafarers, according to how they are depicted in Swedish maritime magazines, have considerable agency in shaping their own professional identity without being forced to conform to a hegemonic masculinity. Finally, it is suggested that the term “seafarer” be used instead of “seaman” in both print and everyday conversations, for increased inclusiveness and representation.

Effects of electrical and percussive stunning on neural, ventilatory and cardiac responses of rainbow trout
- 2025
-
Ingår i: AQUACULTURE. - 0044-8486 .- 1873-5622. ; 594
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From an ethical standpoint, it is imperative that rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are humanely slaughtered, which entails that they are rendered unconscious immediately by a stunning method and remain so until death. The efficacy of electrical stunning following dewatering (i.e., in-air electrical stunning at intensities of 50 to 920 mA and durations of 5 to 30 s) and percussive stunning, both advocated as humane stunning and/or killing methods, are evaluated here for this species via the presence or absence of visually evoked responses (VERs). In addition, ventilatory and cardiac responses were evaluated to elucidate the physiological basis for the lethality of both methods. While the present study was unable to determine the capability of in-air electrical stunning to induce immediate unconsciousness, our findings revealed that irreversible stuns were induced by both in-air electrical stunning (i.e., similar to 25 to 70% of individuals did not recover VERs across the various combinations of stunning intensities and/or durations) and percussive stunning (i.e., similar to 100% of individuals did not recover VERs). The efficacy of in-air electrical stunning for permanently abolishing VERs was marginally, but significantly, impacted by stun intensity (i.e., explained 8% of the variation). Furthermore, due to substantial inter-specific variability and a limited sample size, significant impacts of stun intensity and/or duration on the recovery of VERs in reversibly stunned individuals were not detected in the present study (i.e., VERs recovered between <0.5 to 28.8 min). Further investigation is therefore necessary before in-air electrical stunning can be endorsed as a standalone humane slaughter method for rainbow trout. This includes determining its capacity to induce immediate unconsciousness, as well as to identify additional factors that could be modified or enhanced to improve its efficacy. Furthermore, since death following in-air electrical stunning likely entails a prolonged process involving ventilatory failure, hypoxemia, and subsequent vital organ malfunction, rather than immediate cardiac arrest or central nervous system failure, the sequential use of methods such as percussive stunning is recommended to safeguard the welfare of rainbow trout during slaughter.

Creating Empowering Environments for People with Dementia : Addressing Inclusive Design from Homes to Cities
- 2025
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- This edited volume addresses the environments that exacerbate, exclude, and stigmatise those living with dementia to explore designs and processes that can optimise well-being and independence.Featuring the voices and opinions of people with dementia, the chapters showcase individual homes, special dementia facilities, different forms of care homes, and public spaces, from landscape to urbanism, as examples of how to meet the needs and preferences for those living with dementia now. As a response to a recent Cochrane meta-analysis (2022) which highlighted the problems associated with using traditional, medically orientated evaluative methods for environmental design, this book demonstrates a range of research methods that can be used to inform and investigate good co-design of dementia-enabling environments. Furthermore, the book addresses cultural differences in people’s needs and illustrates past, ongoing, and novel initiatives worldwide.Ultimately, this timely volume focuses on person-centred design that enables empowerment, quality of life, health, and citizenship in people living with dementia. It will be of value to researchers, scholars, and postgraduate students studying gerontology, dementia specifically, and those involved with architecture and the built environment for societal benefit more broadly.

Differential laser-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy for dual-gas CO2/CH4 detection
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Measurement. - : Elsevier BV. - 0263-2241 .- 1873-412X. ; 240
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A novel differential laser-induced thermoelastic spectroscopy (D-LITES) was demonstrated. In D-LITES, one probe and one control laser beam with different modulation phases were combined to generate two quartz tuning fork (QTF) mechanical oscillations, which are pi out of phase. The powers of the two lasers were adjusted to balance out the background noise. The differential signal was acquired by demodulating the QTF piezoelectric signal. The D-LITES sensor had a compact and cost-effective one-path configuration and was able to realize dualgas detection. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) were chosen as target gases to verify the D-LITES sensor performance. With the D-LITES technique, the background noise was greatly suppressed. The minimum detection limit (MDL) was improved by 9 times from 260 ppm to 29 ppm and 7.13 times from 0.385 ppm to 0.054 ppm for CO2 and CH4 detection, respectively.

Resource orchestration, socioemotional wealth, and radical innovation in family firms: Do multifamily ownership and generational involvement matter?
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Research Policy. - : Elsevier. - 0048-7333 .- 1873-7625. ; 54:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We draw from resource orchestration and socioemotional wealth (SEW) arguments to examine radical innovation in multifamily firms. We theorize that the weak coordination mechanism associated with multifamily ownership has a negative effect on the positive SEW-radical innovation relationship. Additionally, we argue that low generational involvement – the number of family generations involved simultaneously in the family firm's top management team – mitigates the negative moderating effect of multifamily ownership. Low generational involvement is a mobilizing mechanism that ensures that the family firm uses its SEW to produce radical innovation. We use a sample of Spanish firms to test our expectations. Our results show that firms realize the positive effect of SEW on radical innovation in concert with the leadership governance mechanism of multifamily ownership and low generational involvement. These results are important in that evidence suggests that radical innovation plays a strong role in family firms' long-term survival, success, and renewal. We conclude our paper with a discussion of the study's theoretical contributions and opportunities for future research.

AVT and agency : Revoicing to give a voice to minoritized language communities
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Journal of Audiovisual Translation. - 2617-9148.
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- At the 10th Media for All conference, the meagre representation of minoritized languages (including sign language) in audiovisual media on streaming platforms was tackled. In this way, the very ideal of media for all was challenged. Global streaming platforms tend to adopt a ‘one size fits all’ approach in limiting their language settings to a minimum. While the users of minoritized languages often are proficient in the dominant language of their country, it is absolutely crucial that content is available in their smaller — and often endangered — languages as well. Some streaming platforms of local public service broadcasters try to accommodate this need. Still, the questions remain: to what extent do not only minoritized languages users, but also the speakers of the majority languages encounter these minoritized languages in audiovisual content, how linguistically diverse and inclusive is this content, but also: what role can audiovisual translation play here? In this article, the importance of audiovisual translation in and out of minoritized languages, with a special focus on revoicing, is discussed. The children’s content broadcast by Swedish public service broadcaster in the national minority languages and sign language is used as a case study.

Minority/minoritized language audiovisual translation for younger audiences
- 2025
-
Ingår i: The Routledge handbook of translation and children’s literature and media. - London : Routledge.
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Revoicing has historically been used to translate children’s audiovisual content. Of the various audiovisual translation (AVT) modes, lip-sync dubbing completely replaces the original dialogue track with a recording of the translated dialogue lines in the target language. Off-screen narration is also used to guide children through a programme, usually in the form of voice-over that does not include traces of the source language. In addition to animated children’s programmes, live-action content targeting older children that used to be subtitled in so-called ‘subtitling countries’ is likewise often dubbed nowadays. Other than dubbing, different AVT modes can be combined within the same programme to make children’s content accessible to audiences with special needs or specific linguistic preferences. Furthermore, besides professional AVT, efforts by laypersons and language activists to provide content in minority languages are also important. In this chapter, AVT in and out of minority/minoritized languages is discussed, including aspects such as the role of language planning and the language acquisition impact on younger audiences.

Analysis of a competitive respiratory disease system with quarantine : Epidemic thresholds and cross-immunity effects
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Applied Mathematics and Computation. - : Elsevier. - 0096-3003 .- 1873-5649. ; 485
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Our study investigates the dynamics of disease interaction and persistence within populations, exploring various epidemic scenarios, including backward bifurcation and cross-immunity effects. We establish conditions under which the disease-free equilibrium of the model demonstrates local or global asymptotic stability, contingent on the efficacy of quarantine measures. Notably, we find that a strain with a quarantine reproduction number greater than 1 will out-compete a strain with a quarantine reproduction number less than 1, leading to its extinction under complete immunity conditions. Additionally, we identify scenarios where diseases persist in a sub-critical coexistence endemic equilibrium, despite one control reproduction number being below one. Our exploration of backward bifurcation reveals the model's capacity to accommodate the coexistence of the disease-free equilibrium with up to four endemic equilibria. Moreover, we demonstrate that the existence of cross-immunity enhances the coexistence of two strains. However, co-infections and imperfect quarantine measures pose significant challenges in containing outbreaks, sustaining the outbreak potential even with successful control of individual virus strains. Conversely, controlling outbreaks becomes more manageable in the absence of co-infections, especially with perfect quarantine measures. We conclude by advocating for public health strategies that address the complexities posed by co-infections, emphasizing the importance of simultaneously tackling multiple pathogens.

- Freshwater lakes globally are witnessing an escalation in the frequency and intensity of cyanobacterial harmful blooms. However, underlying factors influencing the succession or coexistence of cyanobacteria, especially filamentous ones, remain poorly understood. Lake Honghu, a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance with degrading aquatic ecological quality, served as a case study to elucidate the intricate relationship between environmental changes and cyanobacterial dynamics. Our analysis revealed a significant increase in the dominance of filamentous cyanobacteria, marked by high spatiotemporal variability in community structure. This dominance of filamentous diazotrophic cyanobacteria is attributed to a decrease in the ratio of dissolved inorganic nitrogen to total phosphorus and their capacity to utilize organic phosphorus in phosphorus-deficient conditions. Species-specific density variations were linked to diverse environmental factors, with total nitrogen or total phosphorus concentration remaining as a crucial factor influencing dominant cyanobacterial density fluctuations. The dominance of low-temperature-tolerant Aphanizomenon and Pseudanabaena was evident in spring and winter, whereas Dolichospermum and Cylindrospermopsis, which prefer higher temperatures, thrived in summer and autumn. Additionally, non-algal turbidity and heterogeneity can potentially alter the competitive outcome among filamentous cyanobacteria or foster coexistence under conditions of elevated temperatures and nutrient limitation. This study predicts that filamentous cyanobacteria may spread and persist in lakes spanning a wide trophic range. Current findings enhance our comprehension of the dynamic responses exhibited by filamentous bloom-forming cyanobacteria in the face of environmental changes within shallow eutrophic lakes and provide valuable insights for lake managers involved in the remediation of degraded shallow lakes.

- We show that a unital ring is generated by its commutators as an ideal if and only if there exists a natural number N such that every element is a sum of N products of pairs of commutators. We show that one can take N < 2 for matrix rings, and that one may choose N < 3 for rings that contain a direct sum of matrix rings - this in particular applies to C*-algebras that are properly infinite or have real rank zero. For Jiang-Su-stable C*-algebras, we show that N < 6 can be arranged. For arbitrary rings, we show that every element in the commutator ideal admits a power that is a sum of products of commutators. Using that a C*-algebra cannot be a radical extension over a proper ideal, we deduce that a C*-algebra is generated by its commutators as a not necessarily closed ideal if and only if every element is a finite sum of products of pairs of commutators.

The Purposes of Internationalisation – Future Teachers’ Perspectives
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Journal of Education for Teaching. - 0260-7476 .- 1360-0540. ; 51:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This research investigates the purposes of internationalisation from the perspective of a group of international prospective teachers studying at a Swedish university. The results show that the prospective teachers’ understanding of internationalisation corresponds to three ideologies of internationalisation – idealism, instrumentalism, and educationalism – but there is also evidence of a more complex and multifaceted understanding of internationalisation. We propose that a new internationalisation ideology may be emerging that corresponds to ideas about ‘responsible internationalisation’ and is connected to the Covid-19 pandemic and changing geopolitics. The importance of taking future teachers’ viewpoints into account, as well as a considering changes to global and local educational contexts, is emphasised when formulating internationalisation strategies in teacher education.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper explores the sociocultural dynamics of off-piste skiers' engagement with digital tools for information-seeking, sharing, and risk management. The study uses autoethnographic narratives and qualitative interview data to understand the digital interactions of off-piste skiers and their influence on decision-making and safety. The findings underscore the extensive use of digital tools, particularly FATMAP, to provide real-time information crucial for navigating the unpredictable terrain and enhancing decision-making processes. This research underscores the significant role of digital representation of the mountain in shaping off-piste skiing practices, cultivating community, and, ultimately, experiences. The findings provide unique insights that help us understand digital tools’ informational use in extreme environments, specifically in the context of off-piste skiing.

Gerascophobia or Excessive Fear of Aging Scale (GEFAS) : Development, validation, and exploration of psychometric properties of a brief instrument using classical testing theory and item response theory
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Archives of gerontology and geriatrics (Print). - : Elsevier. - 0167-4943 .- 1872-6976. ; 128
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Gerascophobia, or excessive fear of aging, is thought to be caused by a mixture of cognitive, experiential, and physiological factors acting on a person at particular time points. Measurement tools for evaluating geraschophobia remain insufficiently developed, despite this commonplace fear's distress.Objective: The objective of the current study was to develop and validate the Gerascophobia or Excessive Fear of Aging Scale (GEFAS) and analyze its psychometric properties.Methods: Three successive investigations were carried out with a total of 1594 participants. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to evaluate the construct validity of the GEFAS. Convergent and discriminant validity was assessed by examining relationships with measures of depression, anxiety, stress, death anxiety, psychosocial illness, and life satisfaction. Multiple linear regression was used to investigate factors that predict fear of aging.Results: The GEFAS demonstrated high reliability (Cronbach alpha >0.8). Factor analysis supported a single-factor solution for the scale (fitness indices CFI, TLI, NNFI, NFI, RFI, and MFI all > 0.95; RMSEA=0.06. Significant positive correlations were found between fear of aging and depression (r = 0.270; p < 0.01), anxiety (r = 0.311; p < 0.01), stress (r = 0.285; p < 0.01), death anxiety (r = 0.600; p < 0.01), and psychosocial illness (r = 0.243; p < 0.01). A significant inverse correlation was observed with life satisfaction. Gender differences were also noted, with women exhibiting greater fear of aging than men (p < 0.01; d = 0.488).Conclusion: The GEFAS fills a significant gap in the psychological/psychiatric literature as a useful tool for evaluating the fear of aging. The study concludes that the excessive fear of aging contributes to poor mental health.

Framing : The Social Art of Influence
- 2025
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- From back cover: "A smart, incisive toolkit for understanding how the framing of information influences the way we see the world.In today's chaotic media landscape, working out who and what to believe is a daunting task. Lies and misinformation are only part of the problem - often the way a story is presented has just as much effect on us as what the story is.In Framing, sociologist Mikael Klintman offers a cutting-edge toolkit for exposing and analysing the rhetoric that saturates our everyday lives. Combining insights from the social sciences, economics and evolutionary biology, he lays out a four-part approach to understanding how information is 'framed' for us, built around the key elements of texture, temperature, position and size.Demonstrating this approach through an array of real-world examples, from climate change denial to the subtle messaging of caviar ads, Klintman reveals how canny communicators mislead us without relying on overt deception. At the same time, he probes the deeper evolutionary and cultural roots of our susceptibility to frames."

Developing a machine learning model for heat pipes considering different input features
- 2025

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Using heat pipes (HPs) is an effective method for heat dissipation to overcome the challenge about the rising power density of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Using machine learning models to evaluate the performance of HPs has attracted much attention. There are many key input features that can affect the performance of machine learning models, which impacts, whereas, have not been understood, and how to select such features still remains unclear. In this work, the impact of thirteen key input features is investigated by using the Shapely value. Results showed that, when only predicting the effective thermal conductivity (Keff), heat flux (Q), ratio of HP length to diameter (F), ratio of evaporator length to HP length (e), ratio of condenser length to HP length (c), ratio of HP length to cross area (I), effective length of HP (Leff), inclination angle (B), and Nusselt number (Nu) should be considered when using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. Based on such input features, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and coefficient of determination (R2) are 5.68 % and 0.9580, respectively. When predicting critical heat flux (Qcr) and (Keff), the model accuracy is lower, with 6.81 % of MAPE and 0.9377 of R2. The identified key input features can also provide insights on how to improve the HP design and how to renovate the development of physical models.

- As feminist comics circulate globally, understanding their transfer from local to international contexts is crucial. Original comics’ local feminism risks erasure in the translation process, favouring elements suiting the target culture. This study examines how Pénélope Bagieu’s comics work is reinscribed in the Swedish comics landscape. Selection and reception instances are analysed drawing on translation and cultural transfer studies. The study traces the selection instance by publishing houses and the reception of Bagieu and French feminist comics in Francophone and Swedish comics scenes. Results show increased recognition of French and Francophone female and feminist comics artists in Sweden after 2010. Incoming female comics artists often get niched in children’s literature, despite potential within the feminist comics landscape. Sweden shows unawareness of the gap between locally promoted feminist comics and the reception of imported equivalents. Selection and reception orchestration crucially impact how a work is received in the target culture. Awareness of incoming feminist comics artists’ works and their connections to works in the target culture can offer nuanced perspectives on cross-border development in the field.

Integrated optimisation of multi-pass cutting parameters and tool path with hierarchical reinforcement learning towards green manufacturing
- 2025

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Five-axis machining, especially flank milling, is popular in machining thin-walled freeform surface parts with high energy consumption. Reducing the machining energy consumption is paramount for advancing green manufacturing. Therefore, this paper proposes an energy-efficient integration optimisation of cutting parameters and tool path with hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL). Firstly, a novel multi-pass machining energy consumption model is developed with cutting and path parameters, based on which the integrated optimisation problem is modelled considering a dynamic workpiece deformation constraint. Secondly, HRL with a Soft Actor Critic agent (HSAC) decouples the model into two Markov Decision Processes at different timescales. The higherlayer plans cutting parameters for each pass on a macro timescale, while the micro-timescale lower-layer performs multiple tool path expansions with the planned cutting parameters, and provides feedback to the higher layer. By hierarchical optimisation and non-hierarchical interaction, the model is efficiently solved. Moreover, curriculum transfer learning is applied to expedite task completion of the lower layer, enhancing interaction efficiency between the two layers. Experiments show that, compared with two benchmarks, the proposed method improves machining energy consumption by 35.02 % and 30.92 %, and reduces machining time by 38.57 % and 27.17 %, providing a promising paradigm of green practices for thin-walled freeform parts and the broader manufacturing industry.

What Is the Spectral Theory of Random Fields?
- 2025
-
Ingår i: austrian journal of statistics. - Vienna. - 1026-597X. ; 54, s. 17-32

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We review the current state of the spectral theory of random functions of several variables created by Professor M. I. Yadrenko at the end of 1950s. It turns out that the spectral expansions of multi-dimensional homogeneous and isotropic random fields are governed by a pair of convex compacts and are especially simple when these compacts are simplexes. Our new result gives necessary and sufficient conditions for such a situation in terms of the group representation that defines the field.

“Who Killed Swedish Teacher Education?” : Historicizing current debates on teaching and teaching methods in Sweden
- 2025
-
Ingår i: Teacher Education and Its Discontents. - : Taylor & Francis. ; , s. 26-45
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This chapter examines the historical context and evolution of teaching methods in Swedish teacher education. In doing so, it historicizes the ongoing debates about the quality of teacher education in Sweden and the perceived lack of instruction in teaching methods. Drawing on analysis of guidelines, government reports, recommendations, and curricula spanning from 1842 to the early 21st century, the chapter highlights changes in political reasoning about teaching, learning, and the organization of teacher education. The analysis reveals that teaching has been conceptualized in various ways throughout history. Early approaches viewed teaching as a technique for organizing and monitoring student progress. Later, teaching came to be seen as an art requiring not only good knowledge of the subject matter but also creativity and talent. With the subsequent "scientifi?ation" of teacher training and its gradual incorporation into higher education in the late 1960s, the course on teaching methodology came to be perceived as normative, emphasizing reproducible skills and best practices. As a result, by the end of the 20th century, it was replaced by the course in Didaktik, which, instead of providing teacher students with ready-made methods, focuses on critical evaluation of teaching based on relevant research. This does not mean that the question of teaching methods has disappeared from Swedish teacher education programs. However, in the highly differentiated educational system, it is handled differently by different institutions.
