The relation of law and art is conventionally understood through a disciplinary divide that presents art as an instrument of legal practice and scholarship or, alternatively, presents law as potential context for artistic engagement. Moving beyond disciplinary definitions, in this article we explore how art and law, as modes of ordering and action in the world, often overlap in their respective de

ABSTRACT: Baz-Valle, E, Fontes-Villalba, M, and Santos-Concejero, J. Total number of sets as a training volume quantification method for muscle hypertrophy: A systematic review. J Strength Cond Res 35(3): 870-878, 2021-This review aimed to determine whether assessing the total number of sets is a valid method to quantify training volume in the context of hypertrophy training. A literature search o

How do we explain change in political transnationalism over time? In what way does this change affect diasporic identities? And how does this change alter the relationship and power of diasporic actors towards their homeland states? This paper addresses these questions in relation to Iraqi Shi’a political transnationalism between London and Iraq pre and post-2003. I argue that the confluence of po

Loneliness in advanced age has become one of the societal concerns considering its detrimental effects on physical and mental health of older people. Information and communication technologies show the potential to prevent or tackle loneliness and social isolation among older people. Given a percentage of the older population feeling lonely, loneliness in older age has been increasingly recognized

Artistic research—research carried out by artists, through artistic practice—displays the markers of a burgeoning academic discipline. Dominant perspectives on research cultures would therefore predict that practitioners’ boundary work would play a decisive role in the development of this field. But when binary understandings come up against multiplex meanings, when and how do binaries matter? Foc

Phosphor thermometry for surface temperature measurements has become an established remote thermometry technique. However, measuring at temperatures above 1700 K is still challenging because of the weak phosphorescence and intense background from black-body radiation, leading to low signal-to-noise ratios. Therefore, lifetime-based phosphor thermometry with YAG:Tm;Li and YAG:Dy for high-tempe

Accurately predicting the macroscopic behaviour of heterogeneous materials, particularly in thermo-electrically coupled systems, remains a challenging problem in materials science and engineering. Against this background, this study presents a comprehensive framework for the homogenisation of electrical conductors subject to strongly coupled thermo-electrical processes in (quasi-)stationary settin

As the impact of climate change intensifies, there is an urge to adapt Swedish residential buildings with a special focus on improving their energy efficiency and resilience. In this study, adaptive strategies through Artificial Intelligence and Reinforcement Learning will be provided for the energy management of different Swedish residential buildings. The aim will be the optimization of energy u

This paper combines density-based topology optimization (TO) with a “contact aware” shape optimization (SO) which combines the design freedom of TO with the precise boundary representation of SO. Using gradient based optimization, the objective is to design structures in frictionless contact, including the shape of the contacting surfaces. SO is performed on each contacting structure which defines

Acute postoperative pain remains common despite advances in surgical techniques and enhanced recovery protocols, suggesting that patient-specific factors and individualised approaches may be key to improving outcomes. Real-time intraoperative nociceptive monitoring has emerged as a potential tool to guide analgesia and predict postoperative pain bur their role in an individualised anaesthesia fram

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore and understand the complexity of ageing in relation to factors of importance for extending working life. Method: Discourse analysis of documents was used in an integrative review including 128 articles. Result: Four different conceptualisation of ageing are shown to affect older workers’ ability to extend their working life: (a) biological ageing people’s

In 1880 Serhiy A. Podolynsky (1850–1891) described the human economy as a metabolic flow of energy and was later praised for it by ecologist Vladimir Vernadsky, whereas his work encountered strong criticism by Friedrich Engels. However, the notes taken by Karl Marx were rather neutral in tone. In this article, we use primary sources in Ukrainian and Russian, including Vernadsky’s diaries and corre

Acute postoperative pain remains a major clinical challenge, affecting both recovery and resource utilisation. Beyond nociceptive input, pain is shaped by cognitive and emotional factors, including patient expectations. This narrative review examines the role of expectations in perioperative pain modulation, framed within predictive coding and Bayesian inference models. These models conceptualise
