Understanding the impact of various factors on train arrival delays is a prerequisite for effective railway traffic operating control and management. Existing studies model the train delay prediction problems using a single, generic equation, restricting their capability in accounting for heterogeneous impacts of spatiotemporal factors on arrival delays as the train travels along its route. The pa

With the aim to reach deeper insights into dynamics of resilience and resurgence in Sámi systems of knowledge, this article explores how Sámi worldviews and knowledges are enacted and passed on despite violent efforts of erasure by colonial state actors and settler colonialists. I analyze a variety of sources—interviews, a podcast, a documentary and a magazine—to highlight Sámi resilience and resu

This article employs a holistic understanding of environmental, social, and economic sustainability to explore the interaction between neoliberalism, climate crisis, digitalization, and academic work with a focus on its everyday aspects. Drawing our experience of organizing an online conference during the Covid-19 pandemic and our dialogue with conference participants, we first problematize the pr

Sea ice is strongly impacted by global warming, and its decline further alters the global climate. Climate models are important tools for examining those future sea ice changes and the interaction of sea ice with other Earth system components such as the atmosphere and the ocean. Typically, these components are simulated with separate codes. The interaction between these components is typically mo

I denna uppsats utförs en författarskapsanalys på tre böcker i Camilla Läckbergs Fjällbacka-serie. Mot bakgrund av tidigare anklagelser riktade mot Läckberg angående spökskrivning, ämnar uppsatsen att besvara ifall misstankarna är berättigade. Med utgångspunkt från forensisk lingvistik anammas en rättslingvistisk metod, och till följd analyseras tre språkliga drag som är bevisat betydelsefulla för

Title: Mr. Tweet – A qualitative study examining the leader-follower dynamic on social media Seminar date: 17th of January 2025 Course: FEKH49, Business Administration: Bachelor Degree Project in Organization Undergraduate Level, 15 credits Authors: Natalie Hellman, Albin Persson, Kajsa Ridström Supervisor: Nadja Sörgärde Key words: Leadership, social media, X, supporters, and Elon Musk Purpose:

This study reports on the impact of rainfall patterns and land surface changes on flood dynamics in the Meijiang River Basin, located in the upper reaches of the Ganjiang River. We formulated a range of rainfall patterns and spatial distribution scenarios and employed the MIKE SHE model to evaluate variations in flood volume, flood peak, and the timing of flood peaks. We found that under comparabl

In literature (e.g. Meulenbroek & van den Bogaard, 2013; Romer, 1993) a correlation between high class attendance and higher study results are historically shown for first-cycle engineering education. However, a tendency towards significantly lower student attendance at learning activities has been experienced by the teaching staff during the latest ten years and particularly among introductorIn literature (e.g. Meulenbroek & van den Bogaard, 2013; Romer, 1993) a correlation between high class attendance and higher study results are historically shown for first-cycle engineering education.

Cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), syndecans and glypicans, play crucial roles in the functional properties of cancer cells, such as proliferation, adhesion, migration and invasion. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)/PDGF receptor (PDGF-R) mediated signaling, on the other hand, is highly associated with cancer progression. Specifically, PDGF-Rα and PDGF-Rβ expressions documente

BACKGROUND: Telomere length (TL) and mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) variations are linked to age-related diseases and are associated with environmental exposure and nutritional status. Limited data, however, exist on the associations with mercury exposure, particularly early in life.OBJECTIVE: We examined the association between prenatal mercury (Hg) exposure and TL and mtDNAcn in 1,145 S

Bakgrund: Hos vuxna personer med autism kan den sociala delaktigheten vara bristfällig. Många söker sig inte till vidareutbildning och har ofta svårt att skaffa eller behålla ett arbete. Detta skapar en risk att hamna i socialt utanförskap. Syfte: att undersöka vilka aktivitetsbaserade interventioner som finns och dess påverkan på aktivitetsengagemang och social delaktighet hos vuxna med autism. MBackground: Social participation is often deficient for adults with autism. Many do not seek further education and often find it difficult to get or keep a job. This creates a risk of social exclusion. Aim: to investigate which occupation-based interventions exist and their impact on occupational engagement and social participation in adults with autism. Method: A general literature study includin

Energy management in urban areas is challenging due to diverse energy users, dynamics environmental conditions, and the added complexity and instability of extreme weather events. We incorporate adaptive reinforcement learning (ARL) into energy management (EM) and introduce a novel approach, called ARLEM. An online, value-based, model-free ARL engine is designed that updates its policy periodicall

Achieving sustainable water resource utilization requires a holistic management approach that recognizes the knowledge and values of different stakeholders through a comprehensive participation approach. This study evaluates the indigenous knowledge and technologies employed in watershed management by analyzing qualitative and quantitative data from six villages in the Mara River Basin area. Data

The Loess Plateau is one of the most severely affected regions in China by soil erosion, where vegetation restoration is the principal strategy for soil and water conservation. Runoff and sediment reduction benefits (RRB and SRB) are key indicators used to evaluate the effectiveness of vegetation measures. While numerous observational and experimental studies have explored the effects of different

This thesis examines the norms, boundaries, and perceptions surrounding homosexuality in Swedish gay press between 1969 and 1973. The aim is to analyse how normative systems influenced the formation of identity, self-image, and sense of community among homosexual individuals. The aim is also to analyse how heteronormativity and the transgression of norms affected their relationship with society an

Bakgrund: I Sverige lever 7950 barn och ungdomar med T1D, vilket är den näst vanligaste kroniska sjukdomen bland barn och ungdomar. T1D är en autoimmun sjukdom där bukspottkörteln inte producerar insulin. Under tonåren sker en psykologisk förändring som kan sammanfattas med identitetsutveckling och autonomi. Att leva med T1D innebär utmaningar som påverkar både vardagsliv och sociala relationer, v
