In Nordic countries, demand response (DR) programs are critical for enhancing energy flexibility and reducing peak electricity consumption in buildings and industry. Accurate short-term demand forecasting is essential to support these programs, especially in the context of cities with varying levels of data availability. This paper compares three different forecasting approaches for hourly electri
The Galactic center and inner disk of the Milky Way contain complex stellar populations obscured by heavy dust extinction. To study their chemical composition, high-resolution near-infrared (near-IR) spectroscopy is necessary. Expanding the set of elements measurable in the near-IR, especially neutron-capture elements, improves our ability to trace nucleosynthesis and Galactic chemical evolution.
Work and working conditions are fundamental social determinants of health. Climate change poses an urgent and growing threat to workers' health, through both direct exposure to environmental hazards and indirect exacerbation of social and health inequalities. Occupational health, which focusses on the promotion of mental and physical health and well-being of workers, is a key but often overlooked
In humans, a well-developed serotonin system is localized to the pancreatic islets while being absent in exocrine pancreas. Assessment of pancreatic serotonin biosynthesis could therefore be used to estimate the human endocrine pancreas. Proof of concept was tested in a prospective clinical trial by comparisons of type 1 diabetic (T1D) patients, with extensive reduction of β-cells, with healthy vo
Jorunn Joiner and Mari Komnæs also employ digital tools, albeit other ones, to shed light on the interaction between narratives of exceptionalism, travel, and place. In ‘Mapping Nordic Exceptionalism with GIS: The Odin Migration Theory and the Search for a Northern Heritage’, they use digital mapping tools to visualise the journeys of two travellers from different centuries in their search for a N
The question of the legal permissibility of heritable gene editing techniques is unsettled. The international consensus opposes clinical research and applications involving germline modifications. Building on previous work, this paper examines how international human rights law, particularly human right to science standards, can inform the regulation of this controversial advancement. We present t
Robotic systems often face execution failures due to unexpected obstacles, sensor errors, or environmental changes. Traditional failure recovery methods rely on predefined strategies or human intervention, making them less adaptable. This paper presents a unified failure recovery framework that combines Vision-Language Models (VLMs), a reactive planner, and Behavior Trees (BTs) to enable real-time

The electrification of long-haul freight transport is essential for reducing emissions and achieving sustainable mobility. However, battery-electric trucks (BETs) face significant barriers, including limited range, high battery weight, and prolonged charging times, which hinder their widespread adoption for long-distance travel. Electric Road Systems (ERS) offer a compelling solution by providing
Purpose: The Workplace Dialogue is a digitalized method directed at managers. The purpose of this study was to explore managers’ experiences of using the digital Workplace Dialogue in cases of employee ill-health. Design/methodology/approach: The Workplace Dialogue provides an easy and accessible method for managers, including text, short films, client examples and concrete guides that provides su
Modeling of real-world fuels and fuel mixtures in combustion engines, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), calls for the development of compact and computationally efficient chemical kinetic mechanisms. To improve the modeling capabilities of multicomponent fuels it is necessary to transition from the single-component descriptions of fuels and move toward more complex, accurate multicomponent
Indigenous archaeology and archaeology of Indigeneity are paramount in the contemporary world. We certainly need more of it across the archaeological scale and across the archaeological globe. Archaeology’s unhealthy attachment to colonialism, colonial administration and imperialism keeps on affecting our discipline on all levels. It is therefore encouraging to read Felix Acuto’s call for an engag
As we become increasingly conscious of the entangled nature of human existence, we need to become more attuned to the needs of other species, and things on this planet we are bound to. This presents us with an opportunity to rethink in whose interest we approach architectural design, and to bring vital voices into the process that have – until now – been unable to make themselves heard. We conduct
BACKGROUND: Limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE) clinically mimics and often co-occurs with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Expert consensus criteria have been proposed for the LATE clinical diagnosis, integrating clinical and radiological features, and AD biomarkers. Here, we applied the newly proposed criteria in a tertiary memory clinic population. METHOD: We included participa
There is little consensus on the optimal components of gambling psychological treatments. This study aimed to identify clinical consensus statements regarding the perceived effectiveness of gambling intervention content (change techniques, participant/recruitment characteristics, delivery characteristics, and evaluation characteristics) from a panel of researchers with psychological gambling treat
Decarbonising the built environment is essential to mitigating the climate crisis, as buildings significantly contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. Adaptive reuse presents a sustainable alternative to demolition and new construction. This study evaluated the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of an adapted building through renovation and operation across three scenarios, compared to a reference scen
Digital trace data can be used to capture organizational practices in granular detail and enable the automation of a wide range of managerial tasks. One example is Digital Productivity Assistants (DPA) that harness digital trace data about knowledge workers’ performance and make targeted suggestions for how to improve and optimize their work patterns. Previous research shows that despite benevolen
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), particularly Nickel-Cobalt-Aluminum (NCA) variants, are widely recognized as essential for applications such as electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and portable electronics. The superior energy density, extended lifespan, and thermal stability of NCA batteries make them a preferred choice for demanding applications, including electric marine propulsion. In th
