Optimal mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering technique to obtain nanocrystallinity, minimal contamination and enhanced oxidation behaviour in AlCoCrFeNi high entropy alloys

The effect of the phase constitution of BCC/B2, FCC, Cr7C3 and their microstructural attributes are conspicuous on the hardness properties of AlCoCrFeNi HEAs [1]. The correlation of unsolicited C and O contaminant with process parameters (milling duration/rpm) and process control agent (PCA) categorically established that contamination increases with duration of mechanical alloying (MA) [2] . It i

Design Space Exploration and PPA Evaluation of ARM NI-700 Interconnect as a Replacement for NIC-400 in ASIC Architectures

With the rapid evolution of semiconductor technology and the growing demand for high-performance, low-power System-on-Chip solutions, the design of efficient and scalable on-chip interconnect architectures has become a critical challenge in modern ASIC development. This thesis focuses on design space exploration of replacing multiple ARM CoreLink NIC-400 crossbar-based interconnects with a unified

Evaluation of Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling on Digital Pre-distortion

Power amplifiers play a crucial role in wireless communication systems. However, they can achieve high efficiency only when operating in the nonlinear region. To maintain linear output while operating in this region, several techniques have been developed, among which digital pre-distortion (DPD) is one of the most widely used. In this thesis, we designed and analyzed a digital predistortion (DPD)

Loess provenance in the westernmost part of the lower Danube Basin, Serbia : Geochemical insights from the Velika Vrbica fluvial–eolian section

Our study examined the chemical composition of fluvial and eolian sediments at the Velika Vrbica multisection, located on the bank of the Danube River in eastern Serbia, within the westernmost part of the lower Danube (Dacian) Basin. The multisection comprises two discrete sections: an older 2.7 m thick fluvial section, and a younger 11.2 m thick loess-paleosol sequence (LPS). These are exposed al

Modeling cutting edge honing process in wet abrasive jet machining

Cutting edge preparation is crucial in metal cutting as the edge geometry significantly influences both the material removal process and tool life. However, an analytical model that can physically describe the cutting edge preparation process has not yet been established. Taking the wet abrasive jet machining (WAJM) method as an example, the following questions always remain: Why does WAJM always

Expanding the landscape of lysine acetylation stoichiometry and clinical impact

Lysine acetylation, once viewed primarily as a histone mark, is now recognized as a widespread regulator of protein function. Recent breakthroughs in chemical labeling, isotopic tagging workflows, and data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry enable precise, site-specific quantification of acetylation stoichiometry. This quantitative “acetylomics” approach reveals a “rheostat” model, where mo

Multi-electron donation promotes the photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to methane in a covalent bonded metal-complex/quantum dots hybrid catalyst

Multi-electron donation remains a challenge for CO2 photocatalytic conversion to multi-electron products due to the efficient Auger recombination or annihilation at multiple excitation conditions for conventional molecules or semiconductor photocatalysts. In this paper, we demonstrated possible multi-electron donation within a quantum dot (QD)/metal complex hybrid photocatalyst system when multipl

Using sentinel-2 data to quantify the impacts of drought on crop yields at local and regional scales in Sweden

A causal inference framework was developed to investigate crop responses to agricultural drought by integrating meteorological data, Sentinel-2-derived data, and soil property maps. To account for crop rotation, soil, and topographical variables, propensity score matching was employed to estimate drought-induced yield losses at the field level for selected periods. The Plant Phenology Index (PPI)

Buddhism och barn

This is a contribution written for aspiring teachers of religionskundskap. It depicts what it means to grow up as a Buddhist, including reflections on childhood in Buddhist early sources and the childhood of the historical Buddha. It starts out with looking at children growing up among Buddhists and includes, in the end, South Asian Buddhist child monks as well as American and European perspective

Disentangling intra-annual Pinus sylvestris growth responses to hydro-climatic conditions : Insights from quantitative wood anatomy in peatlands

Peatlands are vital ecosystems that regulate global carbon storage and hydrology, driven by waterlogged conditions that foster organic matter accumulation. However, disentangling the interactions between climate, hydrology, and tree growth in peatlands remains challenging. To investigate these relationships, we developed a 117-year ring width (RW) chronology (1902–2019) and complementary intra-ann

War, Memorialisation, and Digitality : Mnemonic Practices of Ukrainian Virtual Museums in the Russian War against Ukraine

This interdisciplinary thesis examines the nexus of memory, war, and digitality inthe context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Since 2014, the unfolding Russianwar against Ukraine has epitomised how rapid technological developments haveprofoundly altered the ways in which warfare is depicted, perceived, and waged intoday’s world. These transformations have enabled new forms of engagement withwa

Urban pollution impact assessment in six lithuanian cities with a focus on road traffic emissions - integrated framework for environmental health studies

An integrated framework is introduced and applied to assess the health impact of airborne pollution with greater physiological relevance, moving beyond conventional exposure metrics. Measured particle number size distribution data was integrated with a regional respiratory tract deposition fractions to estimate total and alveolar deposited particle surface area concentrations. Land use regression

Humanist Translation and the Parisian Tradition : Jacques Lefèvre d'Étaples's ps.-Dionysius the Areopagite

Responding to recent studies on the reception of Church Fathers, this paper contributes a study of how Jacques Lefèvre d'Étaples edited the writings of ps.-Dionysius the Areopagite in Latin. Focusing on how Lefèvre revised the Latin translation by Ambrogio Traversari (1386-1439), I argue that Lefèvre adapted Traversari's text to a new context by aligning the translation with earlier Latin renderin
