ENVRI-FAIR D5.7: ENVRI-Hub design study

The ENVRI-Hub design study contains the analysis of the technical preconditions for the successful implementation of the design ENVRI-Hub as a centralised access interface to environmental data and services building upon the increase of FAIRness achieved in the ENVRI-FAIR project; it will be based on the validation results from WP7 and Task T5.4, and the achievements in the subdomain implementatio

ENVRI-FAIR D6.3: Training for FAIR services and data – outcomes and experiences

This is the final deliverable of WP6, the training and capacity building work package of ENVRI-FAIR. The objectives of WP6 were to provide training to ENVRIs and key ENVRI stakeholder groups about the FAIR principles, how to implement these in practice in RI services and data management activities at data centre level, how to evaluate the degree of implementation using FAIR metrics, as well as rel

Lingvistik, dialogism, hermeneutik : Om språkvetenskapens kunskapsobjekt

En stor del av språkvetenskapen vilar sedan länge på en snäv idé om sitt kunskapsobjekt. Inställningen är nomotetisk och logocentrisk. Med språk avses ett regelbundet system. Fastän denna inställning mött mycket motstånd, har den väl i praktiken aldrig skakats i grunden. Denna undersökning försöker därför ännu en gång att presentera ett alternativt språkbegrepp. Teorin är dialogisk och hermeneutis

Molekylärt verktyg för materialbyggare

MARK RAMBARAN visar hur en molekyl som innehåller övergångsmetallen niob kan användas som byggsten för att designa material för exempelvis energilagring.

Baa Baa Black Sheep : Treatment of Words for Animal Sounds in Two Online English Dictionaries

The paper examines the entries of 36 words for common animal sounds in two online English dictionaries, Cambridge Dictionaries and The Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, to see what information is provided in the entries. Previous work on English dictionaries has focused on meaning explanations of referential, arbitrary words. With the examination of onomatopoeic words for animal sounds, this paper e

Are cryptocurrencies homogeneous?

This article investigates if cryptocurrencies returns' are similarly affected by a selection of demand- and supply-side determinants. Homogeneity among cryptocurrencies is tested via a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model where determinants of Bitcoin returns are applied to a sample of 12 cryptocurrencies. The analysis goes beyond existing research by simultaneously coveri

Covid-19: What Determines Policy Responses Across Europe?

This chapter analyses responses of European policymakers to the Covid-19 pandemic’s first and second waves. It is based on an empirical analysis where patterns are sought between contextual factors and policy responses. The results shows that that macroeconomic conditions and policy interactions appear to matter more than countries’ number of Covid-19 cases. The level of government indebtedness ca

Analysis of the Tamil Parallax Procedures in Le Gentil's Report of 1776

The Tamil procedures for computing the circumstances of eclipses were reported by the French astronomer Guillaume Le Gentil from his visit to India in the 1760's. This paper investigates these Tamil procedures for a solar eclipse, focusing on the procedures for finding the eclipse parallax which are needed to describe the local appearance of an eclipse. These procedures constitute the essential di

Targeting Toll-like receptor-driven systemic inflammation by engineering an innate structural fold into drugs

There is a clinical need for conceptually new treatments that target the excessive activation of inflammatory pathways during systemic infection. Thrombin-derived C-terminal peptides (TCPs) are endogenous anti-infective immunomodulators interfering with CD14-mediated TLR-dependent immune responses. Here we describe the development of a peptide-based compound for systemic use, sHVF18, expressing th

Utilization of Methods for Pain Treatment and Management Among Older Adults with Chronic Pain

BackgroundOlder adults have a high prevalence of chronic pain, which can have a substantial effect on their health and quality of life. Patients’ use of effective pain relief methods is a central part of the treatment and management of chronic pain. The utilization of pain relief methods and their perceived effectiveness are important knowledge for treating and managing chronic pain for clinicians

Serial dependence in facial identity perception and visual working memory

Serial dependence (SD) refers to the effect in which a person’s current perceptual judgment is attracted toward recent stimulus history. Perceptual and memory processes, as well as response and decisional biases, are thought to contribute to SD effects. The current study examined the processing stages of SD facial identity effects in the context of task-related decision processes and how such effe

Neurofilament light chain on intensive care admission is an independent predictor of mortality in COVID-19 : a prospective multicenter study

BACKGROUND: Neurofilament light chain (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and total-tau protein (tau) are novel blood biomarkers of neurological injury, and may be used to predict outcomes in critical COVID-19.METHODS: A prospective multicentre cohort study of 117 consecutive and critically ill COVID-19 patients in six intensive care units (ICUs) in southern Sweden between May and Novem

Membrane concepts : From drinking water preparation to wastewater treatment

Membrane processes are widely used for desalination and wastewater treatment worldwide. In this presentation we will review some interesting membrane concepts which are either currently used or are under development. The initial focus will be on drinking water preparation from lake and river water and desalination of brackish water which are well established in Sweden. Furthermore, new will be pre

Membrane fouling and cleaning in lignocellulosic biorefineries

IntroductionThe pulp and paper sector is a key global industry. Presently, pulp mills prioritize the production of pulp, fibers, and electricity. By transforming traditional pulp mills into lignocellulosic biorefineries, they can become a key element of a future, circular bioeconomy. To accomplish this, pulp mills need to close their loops and optimize the use of the lignocellulosic feedstock, not
