Malmö : Connecting the sharing economy to urban planning processes

A new neighbourhood in Malmö is emerging in Sege Park, an area with a rich history and exciting future. The existing parks and buildings provide the conditions for a good living environment. Sustainability, the sharing economy and urban agriculture are some key words for the building actors who are developing some 800 – 1,000 homes in Sege Park together with the municipality. The innovative aspect

Stockholm : Developing a citizen engagement laboratory for a local climate goal and the sharing economy

The uniqueness of the Stockholm test-bed is based on its close collaboration with a citizen initiative called Hammarby Sjöstad 2.0 around the mission to create a climate-neutral city district by 2027. The founder of Hammarby Sjöstad 2.0 is ElectriCITY, a (civic society NGO and) membership association which operates a number of energy initiatives in the area since 2012, primarily by targeting the n

Vibrotactile sense 5 years after carpal tunnel release in people with diabetes : A prospective study with matched controls

Aim: To compare vibrotactile sense, 5 years after carpal tunnel release in people with and without diabetes. Methods: Out of 35 people with diabetes and carpal tunnel syndrome, age- and gender-matched with 31 people without diabetes but with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome, 27 and 30 people, respectively, participated in this prolonged follow-up. Vibration perception threshold of the index and l

Domain-driven documentation : the case of landscape

It is becoming increasingly evident that the field of language documentation and the docu¬mentary multimedia resources it produces rely on expanding their relevance and usability to disciplines beyond linguistics in order to increase their chances of being sustainable in the long term. This paper argues that more attention should be paid to the needs and interests of such disciplines in language d

Bioartificial lungs based on de- and recelluarisation approaches: a historical perspective.

For patients with end-stage respiratory diseases, such as COPD, interstitial lung diseases and cystic fibrosis, lung transplantation remains the only treatable option. However, due to increasing demand and limited availability of donor lungs, risk of complications such as acute and chronic rejection, and adverse effects of immunosuppressive treatments, this is not an alternative for the majority o

Compressive Sensing for Dynamic XRF Scanning

X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) scanning is a widespread technique of high importance and impact since it provides chemical composition maps crucial for several scientific investigations. There are continuous requirements for larger, faster and highly resolved acquisitions in order to study complex structures. Among the scientific applications that benefit from it, some of them, such as wide scale brain

Microcalorimetry as a tool for the detection of complement-dependent cytotoxicity

Microcalorimetry using a 4-channel static ampoule microcalorimeter of thermopile type has been evaluated as a tool for the detection of complement-dependent cytotoxicity against the surface antigens of living cells. Cytotoxic reactions mediated by a rabbit antiserum against human white blood cells and by 2 different monoclonal antibodies recognizing a melanoma-associated antigen on a human melanom

Signatures of odd-frequency pairing in the Josephson junction current noise

Odd-frequency (odd−ω) electron pair correlations naturally appear at the interface between BCS superconductors and other materials. The detection of odd−ω pairs, which are necessarily nonlocal in time, is still an open problem. The main reason is that they do not contribute to static measurements described by time-local correlation functions. Therefore, dynamical measurements, which depend on nonl
