Biomass is often viewed as a primitive source of energy that needs to be modernized. However, itis unlikely that preferred modern energy sources will displace traditional biomass-based energyin the near term, especially in rural Africa and southeast Asia (FAO 2017). Demand for sustainablysourced biomass is likely to increase as the world moves away from fossil fuel dependence andtransitions to sus
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattningIntroduktionI dagens digitala era har sociala medier och internet blivit centrala plattformar för nyhetsförmedling och offentlig debatt. Denna utveckling har främjat snabbare informationsspridning och ökat engagemang i samhällsfrågor. Samtidigt har det också medfört en ökning av negativa påtryckningar i form av trakasserier, hat och allmänt ogillande, särskilt rikIntegrating socio-legal analysis and working life science, this compilation thesis aims to enhance the understanding of how the evolving digital landscape—particularly the rise of online harassment—influences journalism and its potential to foster healthy public discourse. Additionally, the thesis seeks to advance the field of socio-legal studies by examining the interplay between digital transfor
E-scooter sharing has been commonly used to integrate public transport systems in many cities worldwide. Accurately modeling integration between shared e-scooters and public transport is important for multi-modal urban transportation development and management. However, the effects of catchment size are scarcely considered while modeling their integration by widely adopting the method based on the
Amid growing concerns about hardware security, comprehensive security testing has become essential for chip certification. This paper proposes a deep-testing method for identifying Trojans of particular concern to middle-to-high-end users, with a focus on illegal instructions. A hidden instruction Trojan can employ a low-probability sequence of normal instructions as a boot sequence, which is foll
Ethnographic insights into people’s working lives can help us envision social policy to build dignified workspaces. This article explores the interlinkages between work and social protection, by drawing attention to two dimensions of pheriwale’s everyday working lives: first, how they relate to their work, and second, how they are situated within the Indian welfare context. Pheriwale are a group o
Introduction Severe osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a debilitating disease with no cure or sufficiently effective treatment. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have good safety profile, show promising effects and can form bone. The Boost Brittle Bones Before Birth (BOOSTB4) trial evaluates administration of allogeneic expanded human first trimester fetal liver MSCs (BOOST cells) for OI type 3 or severe
Semiconductor technology constantly advances, enabling integrated circuits (ICs) with increasingly numerous, faster, and smaller transistors. While this progress offers many benefits, it also presents new challenges, such as tighter margins, wear-outs, and process variations. To effectively tackle these challenges, the conventional approach of using external test instruments during manufacturing t
Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors (TFETs) offer more energy efficient alternative to CMOS for design of low power circuits. In spite of this potential, circuits based on TFETs have not been experimentally demonstrated so far. In this letter, we explore TFET fabrication and basic functionality of n-TFET based circuits in the following configurations: a current mirror, a diode-connected inverter, and
It is irrefutable that the material value chains of the modern economy need to become more circular to mitigate not only climate change but also biodiversity loss and pollution associated with increasing use of natural resources. Contributions to these impacts, known as the triple planetary crisis, occur at all stages of product value chains, from primary production to use stages and ineffective e
The introduction of autonomous machines (AMs) in human domains has raised challenging questions about the attribution of responsibility; referred to as the responsibility gap. In this paper, we address the gap by arguing that entities should not be granted the freedom of action unless they can also recognise the same right for others—and be subject to blame or punishment in cases of undermining th
In this paper, we study scalar mediator induced nonstandard interactions (SNSIs) in the context of the ESSnuSB experiment. In particular, we study the capability of ESSnuSB to put bounds on the SNSI parameters and also study the impact of SNSIs in the measurement of the leptonic CP phase δCP. Existence of SNSIs modifies the neutrino mass matrix and this modification can be expressed in terms of th
We explore the potential of nanocrystals (a term used equivalently to nanoparticles) as building blocks for nanomaterials, and the current advances and open challenges for fundamental science developments and applications. Nanocrystal assemblies are inherently multiscale, and the generation of revolutionary material properties requires a precise understanding of the relationship between structure
