Characterisation of Single CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanowire Devices with Ag Electrodes

Metal halide perovskites are widely researched for their optoelectronic properties and potential applications. They are made into devices by being contacted with different electrode materials. In particular, perovskite devices with silver (Ag) electrodes have been studied for their potential applications as memristors, taking advantage of Ag ion migration which can be controlled by the polarity of

Barnmorskors erfarenheter av tillmatning med formula på icke-medicinsk indikation på BB

Abstrakt Bakgrund: Antalet tillmatningar med formula på Sveriges BB avdelningar är höga, 20-40% med ett medeltal på 30% i landet. Att tillmata det ammande barnet med formula på icke-medicinska indikationer ska undvikas enligt de riktlinjer som finns, trots det tillmatas friska fullgångna barn på icke-medicinsk indikation på BB. Det finns evidens för att tillmatning med formula på sjukhuset har st

Practice lab project: a report from an autoethnographic assignment with students in higher music education

This presentation focuses on a project at an early stage of development. The aim of the practice lab project is twofold: (i) to strengthen the competence among students in higher music education with regards to the topic of practice, and (ii) contribute to research on musical practice and skill acquisition. The project is conducted at Malmö Academy of Music (Lund university). Students take part in

‘Transient immediate orthostatic hypotension’ is preferable to ‘initial’ orthostatic hypotension

A drop of systemic blood pressure (BP) occurring shortly after individuals move from supine or seated position to upright posture with subsequent prompt spontaneous resolution is a common physiological occurrence in humans. If the induced hypotension is severe, lightheadedness or postural instability leading to falls and injury may occur. By consensus, a transient systolic BP drop >40 mmHg within

Soil nitrous oxide emissions from global land ecosystems and their drivers within the LPJ-GUESS model (v4.1)

Nitrogen (N) transformation processes by soil microbes account for significant nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from natural ecosystems and cropland. However, understanding and quantifying global soil N2O emissions and their responses to changing environmental conditions remain challenging. Here, we implemented a soil nitrification–denitrification module into the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS to

Sensorimotor relationship and musical affordances

Recent years has seen a number of music researchers taking interest in the concept of affordances. Although interpretation of the concept varies, a common denominator is that affordances are opportunities for actions emerging between a subject and the environment. As such, it is an analytical perspective that highlights material and embodied dynamics of musical practice, dimensions central to musi

Petrography and field relationships of impact lithologies at the Gardnos impact structure, Norway

New mapping and laboratory studies of the impactites at the Gardnos impact structure (Norway) show a variety of impact-deformed rocks. Our mapping and petrographic analyses have subdivided these breccias into three distinct categories: (a) melt-bearing sueivitic breccias, melt-bearing polymict breccias; (b) melt-free, polymict lithic impact breccias; and (c) monomict lithic impact breccias. This i

Multiple Enrollments and Neural Back-End Modeling for Automatic Speaker Verification

Tänk dig en värld där din röst är nyckeln till allt – från att låsa upp dörrar till att logga in på ditt bankkonto. Denna teknik, kallad röstverifiering, används redan i stor skala för att identifiera personer genom unika egenskaper i deras röst. Men tekniken har sina begränsningar. Bullriga miljöer, korta inspelningar och språkliga skillnader kan göra systemen mindre pålitliga. Hur kan robustheteThis thesis explores advancements in Automatic Speaker Verification (ASV) by examining the impact of multiple speaker enrollments and introducing Adaptive Neural Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (Adaptive NPLDA). Modern ASV combines front-end feature extraction, using state-of-the-art methods based on Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), such as the ReDimNet architectures, with back-end modeling

Dynamic VR: Machine Learning, Color, and Comprehension

Det här arbetet undersöker användningen av realtidsgenererade miljöer i virtuell verklighet (VR) som ett sätt att förbättra förståelse och bibehållandet av kunskap hos användare. Genom en iterativ designprocess integrerades en tal-till-text-modell i VR tillsammans med en algoritm för att hämta ut nyckelord. Systemet testades först i pilotstudier som prototyper, förbättrades genom feedback och anväThis thesis investigates the use of real-time environment generation in virtual reality (VR) as a way to enhance learner comprehension and knowledge retention. Using an iterative design process, a speech-to-text (STT) model was integrated into VR with a keyword-extraction algorithm, first as a prototype in pilot tests, refined with feedback then finally used in a user study. The study compared thr

Evaluation of long-term carbon dynamics in a drained forested peatland using the ForSAFE-Peat model

Management of drained forested peatlands has important implications for carbon budgets, but contrasting views exist on its effects on climate. This study utilised the dynamic ecosystem model ForSAFE-Peat to simulate biogeochemical dynamics over two complete forest rotations (1951–2088) in a nutrient-rich drained peatland afforested with Norway spruce (Picea abies) in southwestern Sweden. Model sim

Mesenteric Venous Thrombosis

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis accounts for up to 20% of all patients with acute mesenteric ischemia in high-income countries and is a very difficult disease to diagnose on clinical grounds. However, owing to the increased availability and evolution of computed tomography in high-income countries, early diagnosis prior to the development of peritonitis is often possible. First-line therapy is

Three-dimensional aortic arch geometry and blood flow in neonates after surgical repair for aortic coarctation

Background: Recurrent coarctation of the aorta (re-CoA) is a well-known although not fully understood complication after surgical repair, typically occurring in 10%–20% of cases within months after discharge. Objectives: To (1) characterize geometry of the aortic arch and blood flow from pre-discharge magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonates after CoA repair; and (2) compare these measures bet

The Creation and Withdrawal of Spaces for Participatory Governance : The Case of Village Development Committees in West Bengal, India

This article examines how more democratic forms of state-citizen engagement can be engineered under less than favorable political conditions, through the case of the Village Development Committees under the Left Front government in West Bengal, India. Our research shows that these Committees embodied empowered participatory governance ideals and made meaningful contributions to citizens' participa

Water management of proton exchange membrane fuel cells : two-phase flow simulation in gas diffusion layers and channels

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells are a promising green energy conversion technology for clean and sustainable power generation. However, effective water management remains a critical challenge. Water produced by electrochemical reactions can accumulate within porous electrodes and flow channels, leading to flooding that impedes the reverse transport of reactant gases to the reaction zone, there

Pink Hair as a Cyberfeminist Symbol : Online Gender-Based Violence and the “PinkUp” Movement in China

This paper investigates online gender-based violence (OGBV) in China using the perspectives of queer feminism and cyberfeminism. As a case study, it examines the cyberviolence against the “Pink Hair Girl” on Xiaohongshu (a popular Chinese social media platform) and the subsequent resistance by women. The study focuses on the following questions: How does the symbolic use of pink hair represent que

The effect of introducing waste heat from electrolyzers to a power plant in-between two district heating condensers

The work studied the concept of introducing electrolyzer waste heat in between the district heating condensers to study the effects. This was done through IPSEpro where a model of a small-scale Swedish CHP-station was built. Two different cases were analyzed, where one CHP-station was analyzed as an existing (i.e., a fixed geometry) station and the other as a future potential station with external
