Linear quadratic (LQ) control optimizes a quadratic cost function while following a linear model. It is commercially available in the process industry but often not labeled as such and infrequently used. Froth flotation is a process in the minerals industry that extracts precious metals from a slurry of finely ground rock in consecutive tanks called cells. Flotation cells are often arranged in two

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are integral to critical infrastructure, but their interconnected nature exposes them to sophisticated cyber threats. Traditional security mechanisms primarily focus on detecting direct manipulations of control signals or sensor data, leaving them vulnerable to more subtle attack vectors. This paper introduces a novel optimisation framework for modelling and executing Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are integral to critical infrastructure, but their interconnected nature exposes them to sophisticated cyber threats.

INTRODUCTION: Exercise training is recommended as a complementary treatment in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) according to international guidelines. However, less is known regarding how exercise training could successfully be implemented in clinical practice in patients with POTS. Thus, in the current study, we aim to assess the effect of a 16-week tailored exercise training prog

Background Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a group of rare, autoimmune diseases causing inflammation in the vessel wall. Many organs can be affected, and kidney involvement is a common and serious manifestation. Complement activation is important in disease development and has also been detected in patients in remission. The reason for increased complemen

BACKGROUND: The transition to undertaking rehabilitation in the home or local neighbourhood calls for an extensive understanding of which aspects of the built environment are important for people with stroke.OBJECTIVE: This qualitative study aims to explore how home and local neighbourhood environments support or hinder rehabilitation for people who have had a stroke from the perspectives of vario

OBJECTIVE: Despite recent advances, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV) remain incompletely understood, and comparative proteomic analyses of AAV subtypes are lacking. This study aimed to identify key molecular signaling pathways activated in AAV and to elucidate molecular distinctions between AAV with proteinase 3

Studien ”Digitala praktiker ur ett performativt perspektiv hos tre kvinnliga opinionsskapande influerare” är skriven av Annika Dacke, Nivine Fahmy Bermalm och Ben Scheding inom området Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap vid Institutionen för kommunikation och medier på Lunds universitet. Syftet med arbetet är att med ett performativt synsätt undersöka hur tre kvinnliga opinionsbildare arbetar för

”Hwart hjerta andas krig”: an analysis of the depiction of war in Skillingtryck 1770–1830. Even though modern Swedish history has been distinctively peaceful, with the country not having been at war since 1814, the Swedish prime minister Ulf Kristersson stated in January 2025 that Sweden, while not at war, is not at peace. Since conceptualizations of war have varied throughout history, this thesis

”As a thanks for the freedom we can now call ours”: the Swedish Youth Brigade (Švedska udarna brigada) in Yugoslavia in 1947. This paper examines the Swedish Youth Labour Brigade’s participation in the reconstruction work of post-war Yugoslavia in 1947, particularly their involvement on the Bosnian ”Youth Railway” (Omladinska pruga), linking Šamac with Sarajevo. With a microhistorical approach, th

OBJECTIVES: It remains unclear whether antenatal SARS-CoV-2 exposure affects subsequent infant neurodevelopment. We aimed to investigate the association between antenatal maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection and neurodevelopment in four-month-old infants.METHODS: Data was collected within the prospective multicenter COVID-19 during pregnancy and early childhood study, COPE (NCT04433364). Infants exposed

Det här examensarbetet handlar om hur man kan närma sig en plats som man har starka band till. Det utforskar jag genom att undersöka min familjs sommarstuga som ligger i Åhus på den skånska östkusten. Där har jag spenderat min barndoms somrar och det är en plats som jag har starka känslor kring. Hur gör jag när jag som arkitektstudent ställs inför att förändra en sådan plats? I det här projektet

This project is about developing and testing a method of how old places can be given new purpose and use through architectural transformation. There are plenty of abandoned factories spread around the country, often in small towns and villages in the countryside. Finding a way to reuse old industrial buildings is a key to further sustainable development. The history and identity of existing build

Abstract in German: Aus der Sicht der byzantinischen Quellen scheint ein religiöser Konfrontationsansatz mit dem Islam oft zu fehlen; dort werden die Muslime als “Araber”, “Sarazenen”, “Ismaeliten” oder “Hagarener” genannt, wie man die vorislamischen Araber auch bezeichnet hatte. Es ist damit nicht ganz klar, wie die universalistische Ansprüche des frühen Islam von Byzanz aus zu verstehen sind. EsByzantine sources often seem to ignore the religious cause of controversy with Islam: they refer to Muslims as “Arabs”, “Saracens”, “Ismaelites” or “Hagarenes”, names which had already been used to denote the pre-Islamic Arabs. The Byzantine point of observation on the universalist claims of Early Islam is, thus, not quite clear. There are, however, several clues to the assumption that the early C

Early and accurate classification of skin diseases plays a crucial role in improving diagnostic efficiency and patient outcomes. This thesis introduces HybridCNNViT, a deep learning algorithm that combines a setup of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Vision Transformers (ViTs) to capture both local texture and global structure from skin lesion images. To address the common issue of class im

BACKGROUND: Despite the significant personal and societal burden of tic disorders (TDs), treatment outcomes remain modest, necessitating a deeper understanding of their etiology. Family history is the biggest known risk factor, and identifying risk genes could accelerate progress in the field.METHODS: Expanding upon previous sample size limitations, we added 4800 new TD cases and 971,560 controls
