Background: Spending time in natural environments is beneficial for human health, but many older adults have limited or no access to natural environments. Virtual reality technology may be a means to facilitate nature experiences, and so, there is a need for knowledge on how to design virtual restorative natural environments for older adults. Objective: The aim of this study was to identify, imple
This article examines how university students assess the coordination of the courses their programmes contain and how course coordination affects how content they are with their studies. The study is based on survey data from more than 5700 students, collected through Lund University’s Student Barometer. The survey examines the students’ views on course coordination based on content, workload, adm
In social work, practitioners are often faced with situations in which they have to choose an intervention. A fundamental ethical principle of social work practice is to minimize the risk of adverse effects caused by social services. To adhere to this principle, practitioners must be aware of the possible positive and negative effects of potential services. There are hundreds of interventions curr
Craniopharyngiomas (CPs) are rare primary brain epithelial tumors arising in the suprasellar region from remnants of Rathke's pouch. About 50% originate at the level of the third ventricle floor, including the hypothalamus (HT). CPs are characterized by a low proliferation rate and symptoms due to mass effect and local infiltration and are managed primarily with surgery and radiotherapy. Gross tot
Children with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) are often described by their parents or teachers as "little adults, " in part because of the seemingly adult-like themes that populate their child's worries; for example, the health of family members or family finances and concerns about performance. Younger children may experience more vague worries of "something" bad happening to themselves, famil
There is a serious imbalance between parking demand and capacity in cities due to limitations in their parking facilities. It is important for drivers to know about parking vacancies before their trips. Meanwhile, administrators need information about parking capacity and demand before a week begins to improve parking management. A method is proposed here for predicting parking demand and capacity
In this paper, numerical simulations were carried out to identify the mode of ignition and ignition delay time of pulverized biomass particles in hot flue gas produced by a methane/air flame. In the experiments, it was observed that for most biomass residues the dominant combustion mode was the staged gas-phase ignition in the surrounding gas followed by surface ignition at the char surface. There
This work focuses on the optimization of the Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) technique to determine the content of lithium and fluorine in geological materials. Measuring low concentration of these isotopes is of great relevance in many fields such as geological, astrophysical, biological and material sciences. Light elements as lithium and fluorine are considered as geochemical tracers in various

This study reports the synthesis and characterization of heterogeneous acid catalysts derived from rice husk biochar, modified by sulfonation and Ce(NO3)3·6H2O (cerium (III) nitrate hexahydrate) impregnation, for fatty acid esterification using methyl acetate as a glycerol-free reaction route. The research aims to valorize agricultural residues as renewable and sustainable precursors for solid aci
Effective control over the alignment of 2D nanomaterials in solution is critical for optimizing their macroscopic properties. However, the fundamental factors governing this alignment remain poorly understood. This study addresses this gap by investigating the disorder-to-order transition states of Ti3C2Tx MXene sheets. We specifically examine the interplay among sheet sizes, concentrations, and s
