To complete a new Swedish railway line in a much shorter timeframe than today, alter natives to the traditional methods need to be explored. One option is the use of prefabricated concrete slabs elevated on piers, analogous to the concept used in China for building new railways in record time (He et al., 2017). The method has the advantage of directly tackling the barrier effects exhibited by trad

This paper focuses on how one can relate management thinking/practices to entrepreneurial processes in the context of formal organization. In order to do this we develop a number of related 'spatial concepts' providing us with the possibility of describing entrepreneurship as a 'creation and use of space for play/innovation'. Using concepts of space, the managerial and the entrepreneurial dimensio

Accident models and analysis methods affect what accident investigators look for, which contributory factors are found, and which recommendations are issued. This paper contrasts the Sequentially Timed Events Plotting (STEP) method and the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) for accident analysis and modelling. The main issue addressed in this paper is the comparison of the established mul

Public Procurement for Innovation (PPI) requires multiple roles from the public administration according to the problem-solution space, delineated by the level of consensus around the definition of the needs of the contracting authority and the potential solutions to address them. Each role involves a distinct mix of capabilities, which we categorize as ordinary (i.e. doing things right), dynamic

A growing body of observations has revealed rapid changes in both the total inventory and the distribution of marine oxygen over the latter half of the 20th century, leading to increased interest in extending oxygenation records into the past. The use of paleo-oxygen proxies has the potential to extend the spatial and temporal range of current records, constrain pre-anthropogenic baselines, provid

The European Spallation Source (ESS) is a research facility under construction aiming to be the world’s most powerful pulsed neutron source. It is powered by a complex particle accelerator designed to provide a 2.86 ms long proton pulse at 2 GeV with a repetition rate of 14 Hz. Protons are accelerated via cavity fields through various accelerating structures that are powered by Radio-Frequency (RF

Solid dispersions are promising drug delivery forms which offer the possibility to disperse a hydrophobic drug in a hydrophilic matrix and thereby improve the dissolution behavior and the bioavailability of the drug. One important aspect and a prerequisite in understanding the drug dissolution mechanism from solid dispersions is a better analytical monitoring of the solid dispersion surface proper

Quantum technologies and experiments often require preparing systems in low-temperature states. Here we investigate cooling schemes using feedback protocols modeled with a quantum Fokker-Planck master equation (QFPME) recently derived by Annby-Andersson et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 050401 (2022)0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.129.050401]. This equation describes systems under continuous weak measure

Mitochondrial replacement therapy has been developed in order to prevent the transmission of mitochondrial mutations, yet it raises ethical concerns, particularly regarding the involvement of third-party DNA and the risks associated with donor procedures. This paper explores an alternative approach using synthetic DNA (synDNA) to construct mitochondrial organelles, thereby bypassing the need for d

J. S. Wilson proved in 1971 an isomorphism between the structural lattice associated to a group belonging to his second class of groups with every proper quotient finite and the Boolean algebra of clopen subsets of Cantor’s ternary set. In this paper we generalize this isomorphism to the class of branch groups. Moreover, we show that for every faithful branch action of a group G on a spherically h

Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that offers near real-world experiences in various fields. With the widespread use of virtual environments designed to provide VR experiences, the amount of data collected from these environments has increased rapidly. However, as the volume of data grows, there is a need to develop analysis processes and advance the data-driven development model. In this study

The emergence of cyber mistreatment among frontline workers in their digital interactions with customers, clients and patients represents a significant but relatively new work environment risk within the service sector. Human resource management has a key role in digital transformation, which includes securing safe and healthy workplaces and fostering sustainable practices for handling cyber mistr

This Perspective suggests six conceptual propositions to advance care-centric planning and governance in support of SDG 11. By prioritizing relationships, responsiveness, and collective well-being, while also integrating empowerment, environmental stewardship, and cultural diversity, a care-centric approach fosters more inclusive and sustainable cities. Drawing on selected practice-based examples,

Viral hepatitis remains a global health concern, with growing recognition of the impact of hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis E virus (HEV), and herpesvirus-associated hepatitis, particularly in vulnerable groups. This narrative review from the ESCMID Study Group for Viral Hepatitis (ESGVH) summarizes recent advances and expert perspectives. For HAV, insights into viral evolution, epidemiology, an

This study presents a modular approach for the synthesis of multifunctional affinity sorbents, facilitating molecular separation via magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers. A magnetic propranolol-imprinted polymer (MIP) nanocomposite with superparamagnetic characteristics was synthesized through precipitation polymerization process coupled with coprecipitation methods. Initially, the propranolol-

OBJECTIVES: Implementation of the Stroke Action Plan for Europe (2018-2030) (SAP-E) was initiated in 2019. It is now updated at mid-term to reflect and respond to challenges for stroke care in Europe in 2025. METHODS: The SAP-E covers the entire chain of stroke care. The sections (state of the art, current status and targets) were developed by working groups and finalised based on inputs from the

BACKGROUND: Despite decades of initiatives promoting individual behavior change, obesity rates remain high and continue to rise globally, indicating that what is commonly labelled as “obesity prevention” is not, in practice, preventing obesity. While health promotion strategies and policy interventions have demonstrated improvements in environments, health behaviors, and industry practices, their
