This study investigates the impact of brick types and workmanship on water penetration in brick masonry veneer walls. Masonry specimens, built by two masons using solid and perforated bricks with two different laying methods, were subjected to an average water spray rate of 28 l/m²·h. Results indicate that, on average, the water penetration rate was approximately twice as high in solid bricks as i
In this study, we investigate integrating eye tracking with auditory attention decoding (AAD) using portable EEG devices, specifically a mobile EEG cap and cEEGrid, in a preliminary analysis with a single participant. A novel audiovisual dataset was collected using a mobile EEG system designed to simulate real-life listening environments. Our study has two main objectives: (1) to use eye tracking
Försörjningsberedskap är återigen centralt för Sverige och man inser att samhällsviktiga försörjningskedjor består av såväl olika slags myndigheter som privata, ofta globala, företag. För att höja beredskap, behövs ett mer gemensamt arbete med risker och kontinuitetshantering i försörjningskedjor. Det finnas dock stora samverkansutmaningar i detta privat-offentliga gränssnitt. Artikeln beskriver e
Introduction:The pulp and paper industry is a major global sector, with most mills focused on producing fibres and electricity. Converting these mills into lignocellulosic biorefineries can make them central to a circular bioeconomy. This involves optimizing wood use for fibres, biochemicals, biofuels, and advanced materials, while improving efficiency and reducing waste. This lecture explores mem
In this paper we propose a technique to enhance the performance of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID)-based control structure for Depth-of-Hypnosis control in total intravenous anesthesia when set-point changes are required during the maintenance phase. In particular, the PID controller, tuned for disturbance rejection, is integrated with a feedforward action based on Model Predictive Contro
The last couple of years’ child/youth-led climate cases like Juliana v. US, Sacchi et al. v. Argentina et al. and the Duarte Agostinho case at the European Court of Human Rights have sparked the beginnings of a new sub-field of socio-legal child rights studies. The present paper systematically and critically reviews this emerging body of literature on rights-based climate litigation with children
This paper presents an in-depth analysis of the stability and performance of control systems experiencing sensor timing misalignments, a common challenge in practical applications such as autonomous vehicles and aerospace systems. We model multichannel sensor delays as independent random variables, capturing the variability of real-world systems where different sensors exhibit distinct and non-con
Moving beyond both utopian optimism's market-based solutions and terminal marketing's pessimism, this work introduces a dystopian optimism to revitalise critical marketing. We advocate for degrowth as an optimistic path forward and outline how marketing scholars can use critical performativity to be part of the transition to a post-growth economy.
In recent years, research on European politics has increasingly examined a perceived turn toward nationalism, focusing largely on why this shift occurs and how it manifests. However, fewer studies address Swedish party politics and whether such nationalist tendencies can be identified in mainstream parties. Against this background, this thesis investigates whether nationalist ideas can be traced i
Lunds Tekniska Högskola har beretts tillfälle att inkomma med yttrande över remissen ovan och inkommer härmed med synpunkter. Yttrandet har utarbetats av Ingemar Bengtsson, avdelningsföreståndare och universitetslektor vid Fastighetsvetenskap, och Carl-William Palmqvist, docent och universitetslektor i järnvägsteknik vid Trafik och väg. Vi håller med om problembeskrivningen att Sverige står inför
This study explores the effectiveness of combining Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and Induced Polarization (IP) for identifying internal erosion processes in embankment dams. A small-scale test dam was built in Älvkarleby, Sweden, with deliberately embedded but undisclosed defects to test monitoring capabilities. Daily ERT and IP measurements were collected during 4.5-year years, and anal
