We present a constructive approach to bounded l2-gain adaptive control with noisy measurements for linear time-invariant scalar systems with uncertain parameters belonging to a finite set. The gain bound refers to the closed-loop system, including the learning procedure. The approach is based on forward dynamic programming to construct a finite-dimensional information state consisting of H-infinit

This study acknowledges that home is a central and valenced place for most people, and therefore it is assumed that (a) the content in people’s general category for home issues can be activated easily, particularly by various home-related stimuli, and that (b) the affective charge of such content can have a valence-congruent impact on evaluations of home-related stimuli. These assumptions were the

This article analyzes two planned cities—Belo Horizonte (Brazil) and Bloemfontein (South Africa)—to investigate connectivities across geographies and temporalities and reveal the role of urban planning in racial capitalism. Early works in urban sociology underscore the color line in producing differentiation in capitalist development. But color-blind analyses of capitalism have undermined the role

Incumbent firms face growing pressure to transform their business towards sustainability. However, business models for sustainability (BMfS) and circularity are grounded in fundamentally different institutional logic which, for incumbents, creates tensions with existing business models, structures and routines. How organizations manage tensions from conflicting logics is explored comprehensively i

Sambandet mellan fysisk aktivitet och hälsa är starkt, och det känner de flesta till. Men den allmänna kunskapen om fysisk träning är ofta diffus eller svag, och att ge goda råd för att hjälpa andra att nå sina träningsmål kan vara svårt. I denna bok finns kunskap och redskap som kan användas för att förebygga och behandla ohälsa från ett praktiskt håll baserat på den senaste vetenskapen.I Träning

Expectations on collaboration between public authorities and civil society organizations (CSOs) have increased in Sweden the past decades, partly due to changes in the organization of welfare services. This article investigates a collaborative project within the migrant integration policy area. It is a collaboration between the employment offices in a region of Sweden and local CSOs with the commo

Ocean Water Quality (OWQ) monitoring provides insights into the quality of water in marine and near-shore environments. OWQ measurements can contain the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of oceanic waters, where low OWQ values indicate an unhealthy ecosystem. Many parameters of water can be estimated from Remote Sensing (RS) data. Thus, RS offers significant opportunities for moni

Precipitation, as an important component of the Earth’s water cycle, plays a determinant role in various socio-economic practices. Consequently, having access to high-quality and reliable precipitation datasets is highly demanded. Although Gridded Precipitation Products (GPPs) have been widely employed in different applications, the lack of quantitative assessment of GPPs is a critical concern tha

Rapporten undersöker hur de olika utbildningstraditionerna i Sverige och USApåverkar undervisning och lärande. Rapporten lyfter fram svenska akademikers erfarenheter av att undervisa vid amerikanska universitet inom ramen för STINT Teaching Sabbatical-programmet och syftar till att ge en utgångspunkt för framtida diskussioner.

Background and aim: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease causing irreparable scarring of lung tissue, with most patients succumbing rapidly after diagnosis. The mevalonate pathway, which is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, survival, and motility, is targeted by the bisphosphonate zoledronic acid (ZA). The aim of this study was to assess the antifibroti
