We present extensive density-functional theory (DFT) based calculations of the clean Rh(111) surface and of CO/Rh(111) overlayer systems. We study both ground-state structural properties and core-level shifts from differences in total energies at different coverages and adsorption sites. Most results are obtained using using norm-conserving or ultrasoft pseudopotentials. The overall reliability of

Purpose - To provide an integrated perspective to similarities and differences between approaches to automated classification in different research communities (machine learning, information retrieval and library science), and point to problems with the approaches and automated classification as such. Design/methodology/approach - A range of works dealing with automated classification of full-text

Popular Abstract in Swedish ”Behandlingen av trafikflöde vid trafiksäkerhetsanalyser - ett icke-parametriskt angreppssätt applicerat på oskyddade trafikanter” Det finns en lång tradition av att beakta trafikflöden inom trafiksäkerhetsområdet. Inverkan av flödet har dock ofta betraktats som så självklart att det använts utan eftertanke. I denna avhandling kan jag däremot visa att relationen mellaThe treatment of flow in the area of traffic safety has a long tradition. The influence flow has on the number of accidents is, however, often considered so obvious that it tends to be trivial. In this thesis I can show that the relation between flow and accidents holds interesting information. In order to compare countermeasures, or conduct other types of traffic safety comparisons where the flo

Hobbing is a common manufacturing method when producing helical, involute gears. In order to increase tool life and surface finish, an accurate method to determine chip geometry is needed. Although this accurateness may involve numeric solutions, the geometric description must, as far as possible, be analytic and give a description of the continuously changing chip geometry. In this report, the c

Despite increasing evidence suggesting the cerebellum works in concert with the cortex and basal ganglia, the nature of the reciprocal interactions between these three brain regions remains unclear. This consensus paper gathers diverse recent views on a variety of important roles played by the cerebellum within the cerebello-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical system across a range of motor and cogniti

In the ongoing joint venture between Ericsson and ST Microelectronics, EMP spend data needed to be extracted, consolidated and analyzed to support the ongoing joint venture. Provide an understanding what spend analysis is and how it can support the business and operations in the company. Purpose: The purpose with this master thesis was to create a foundation of spend analysis knowledge at the comp

In Lalati, understanding women's roles, in respect to their needs, strategies and contribution to their household food security is seldom the focus of any discussion. Undoubtedly fisherwomen and fishermen are different but the question remains, how different and to what extent is it different.This thesis is a case study which documents the fishing practices and the traditional ecological knowl

This paper aims at describing and explaining the bi-and multilateral negotiations that are, and have been, taking place between Sweden's chief negotiator Allan Larsson and European countries, and within the EU institutions in Brussels, in order to seek support for the Swedish offer to host the European Spallation Source, ESS. It applies a case study method using political science theories ? go

OBJECTIVES: To simplify the previously published Nottingham 12-year risk prediction model for knee osteoarthritis (OA) and examine whether it can be used to predict the 40-year risk of knee OA in young men.METHODS: We included 40 118 men aged 18 undergoing military conscription in Sweden 1969-70. Diagnostic OA codes were obtained from the Swedish National Patient Register 1987-2010. The original N

Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) are rare tumours and at least 30% are part of hereditary syndromes. Approximately 20% of hereditary PPGL are caused by pathogenic germ line variants in genes of the succinate dehydrogenase complex (SDHx), TMEM127 or MAX. Herein we present guidelines regarding genetic testing of family members and their surveillance based on a thorough literature review. Al

Sverige blev medlem i den Europeiska unionen 1995. En viktig del i samarbetet är upprättandet av den inre marknaden. EG-fördraget är garanten för att fri rörlighet för varor, tjänster, kapital och personer ska vara möjlig mellan medlemsstaterna. Några hinder för den fria rörligheten får inte förekomma på dessa områden. EG-domstolen ser till att EG-fördragets bestämmelser efterlevs av medlemsstater

BACKGROUND: The isolation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream can be used to detect and analyze somatic alterations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and multiple cfDNA-targeted sequencing panels are now commercially available for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved biomarker indications to guide treatment. More recently, cfDNA fragmentation patterns have emerged as a tool to inf

Purpose To evaluate retinal function and histopathology in rabbits treated orally with the antiepileptic drug topiramate. Methods Six rabbits were treated with a daily oral dose of topiramate during a period of eight months. Six rabbits receiving water served as controls. Blood samples were analyzed for determination of topiramate serum levels in order to ensure successful drug exposition. Standar
