A novel family of symmetric squaramide-based LMWGs has been synthesised, functionalized with both dansyl moieties and alkyl chain spacers of different lengths (n = 3 and n = 4 named L1 and L2, respectively). L1 and L2 are able to form hydrogels in the DMSO : H2O mixture in different ratios and concentrations. The gels obtained were characterized by means of rheology, TEM and small angle X-ray scat

We study the Coulomb chain where particles are restricted to one dimension and experience three-dimensional Coulomb interactions with their nearest and next-to-nearest neighbours. The distances between consecutive particles are treated as random variables. It is shown that the correlation between clusters of consecutive variables decay exponentially with the number of variables separating them. Th

In today’s volatile and changing environment employment, innovation, and economic growth are basic characteristics of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to investigate the challenges and enablers of digitalization in SMEs. Expert responses provide numerical weights to 6 barriers and 5 alternatives using Super Decisions v3.2 software. The results sho

This study focuses on developing a consumer-centric Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) evaluation scale for the aviation industry, highlighting the growing importance of corporate sustainability actions from a consumer perspective. With the aviation sector being significantly impacted by sustainability challenges, the need for a strategic approach to leverage ESG management for competitive ad

In this introductory chapter we chart colonial aspirations and projects of early modern Scandinavian kingdoms and discuss political and economic thinking that fuelled and justified these projects. We situate Danish and Swedish colonial venture, ideology and economic concerns that stood behind the global expansion in the context of contemporary European thinking and politics.

Collaboration is expected to play a central role in the transition to abioeconomy—a central pillar of a green economy. Such collaboration is supposed to connect traditional biomass processing firms with diverse actors infields where biomass ought to substitute existing or create novel productsand processes. This study analyzes the network of technology collaborationsamong innovating firms in Swede

Alternating shear rotations, also known as tacking, can effectively alter viscosity, the jamming point, and dissipation per strain for dense suspensions. For a given packing fraction, viscosity decreases with increasing cruising (tacking) angle, while dissipation shows a complex dependence on both packing fraction and cruising angle. Generally, the cruising angle required to reduce overall dissipa

In this evaluation of the international legal standing of the right to reparation and its practical implementation at the national level, Christine Evans outlines State responsibility and examines the jurisprudence of the International Court of Justice, the Articles on State Responsibility of the International Law Commission and the convergence of norms in different branches of international law,

This study develops a strategic framework to guide the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies across various business sectors. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combines an extensive literature review with empirical investigations, including case studies and surveys with industry practitioners. The framework integrates advanced digital technologies, such as artificial intelligence and im

The maker movement has reached the optics labs, empowering researchers to create and modify microscope designs and imaging accessories. 3D printing has a disruptive impact on the field, improving accessibility to fabrication technologies in additive manufacturing. This approach is particularly useful for rapid, low-cost prototyping, allowing unprecedented levels of productivity and accessibility.

We explore whether SAM2, a vision foundation model, can be used for accurate localization of eye image features that are used in lab-based eye tracking: corneal reflections (CRs), the pupil, and the iris. We prompted SAM2 via a typical hand annotation process that consisted of clicking on the pupil, CR, iris and sclera for only one image per participant. SAM2 was found to support better spatial pr

This book provides a highly accessible and user-friendly overview of the essential concepts and terms related to the current global endeavour to implement the Sustainable Development Goals.With the first decade of the 15-year timespan of the 2030 Agenda now past, the SDGs show limited progress and several goals are even regressing. It is imperative that SDG implementation is accelerated until 2030

Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymer microspheres using precipitation polymerization was first reported in 1999 in Lund. The synthetic approach attracted great interest for molecular imprinters worldwide due to its simplicity. Following the initial demonstration of feasibility for material synthesis, imprinted polymer microspheres were found to exhibit good colloidal stability qualifying for
