The weaving together of fragments under the heading of a “weak” theme has a long tradition in research. The strategy has, however, not been so popular after the 19th century, even though advocates of a more modern fragmentology can be found, e.g. in Walter Benjamin. For Benjamin, the artefacts truly showed themselves only when the context had disappeared or been forgotten. In this article we would
In this paper we argue that the Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD), instead of the spectrogram, should be used as basic input into convolutional neural network (CNN) based classification schemes. The WVD has superior resolution and localization as compared to other time-frequency representations. We present a method where a large-size kernel may be learned from the data, to enhance features important
A novel feature extraction method for lowdimensional signal representation is presented. The features are useful for classification of non-stationary multi-component signals with stochastic variation in amplitudes and time-frequency locations. Using a penalty function to suppress the Wigner-Ville ambiguity function auto-terms, the proposed feature set is based on the cross-term doppler- and lag pr
The grounding objection to presentism rests on two premises: (i) every true proposition P has a truthmaker T, and (ii) some claims about the future and past are obviously true. However, if the future and past do not exist, there can be no truthmakers for future and past tensed expressions. Presentists tend not to challenge the premises of the objection. Instead they argue that the present contains
This article will present and discuss the process of digital co-production and audiences' responses to the full-scale interactive, gestural, visual and musical experience of a Virtual Reality arts play. This was inspired by cist-slab images from the Kivik Grave, which is Sweden's most famous Bronze Age grave. The aim of the VR arts play was to use digital technology to engage users as time-travell
A new approach to characterise the evolution and coupling of deformation and fluid flow in geomaterials is presented. The method exploits some key features of neutrons, namely penetration of dense materials used for triaxial pressure cells, sensitivity to hydrogen and the possibility to distinguish hydrogen from its isotope deuterium (in normal water, H2O, and heavy water, D2O, respectively). Illu
Multiconfigurational methods are applied to study electronic properties and structural changes in the highly flexible metal-organic framework MIL53(Cr). Via calculated bending potentials of angles, that change the most during phase transition, it is verified that the high flexibility of this material is not a question about special electronic properties in the coordination chemistry, but about ove
The Arctic tundra plays an important role in the carbon cycle as it stores 50% of global soil organic carbon reservoirs. The processes (fluxes) regulating these stocks are predicted to change due to direct and indirect effects of climate change. Understanding the current and future carbon balance calls for a summary of the level of knowledge regarding chamber-derived carbon dioxide (CO2) flux stud
A recombinant Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase, BVMO4 from Dietzia sp. D5 has been previously reported. The enzyme exhibited good thermostability and was active with a wide range of cyclic ketone substrates but catalysed poorly the conversion of cyclohexanone to caprolactone. The present work focuses on protein engineering of BVMO4 to improve the conversion of cyclohexanone. Thus, a structural model
Purpose: The objective was to assess the reliability level of mini-plate fixation used in fracture mandibles in order to evaluate the structure stability in both convalescence and healing periods. Methods: In the convalescence period, the failure scenario is measured by the relative displacement between two fracture surfaces which should not exceed an acceptable value in order to obtain a good sta
The present numerical study aims to assess the performance of an Eulerian Stochastic Field (ESF) model in simulating spray flames produced by three fuel injectors with different nozzle diameters of 100 μm, 180 μm and 363 μm. A comparison to the measurements shows that although the simulated ignition delay times are consistently overestimated, the relative differences remain below 28%. Furthermore,
Deoxyadenosine kinase from Dictyostelium discoideum (DddAK) phosphorylates its natural substrate (2’-deoxyadenosine, dAdo) as well as the arabinosyladenine analogues vidarabine (araA) and fludarabine (F-araA) to their corresponding 5’-monophosphates. DddAK has been here immobilized by ionic interaction on an aminated epoxy-functionalized support (SepabeadsTM EC-EP), and cross-linked with oxidized
In this work, a carbon felt electrode (CFE) was modified with a multiwalled carbon nanotube-gold-platinum (MWCNT-Au-Pt) hybrid nanomaterial and integrated with an osmium redox polymer (OsRP, [Os(2, 2’-bipyridine)2(poly-vinylimidazole)10Cl]Cl) and Gluconobacter oxydans DSM 2343 (G. oxydans) cells. The developed electrode was used as the bioanode in a 5.0 mM K3Fe(CN)6mediator containing phosphate bu
Hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen are common unintentional impurities of Al(x)Ga(1−x)N crystals. This impurity structure and its interplay with Mg impurities in Al(x)Ga(1−x)N semiconductors are relevant to develop the p-type nitride crystals for various devices (e.g, LEDs, transistors, gas sensors) but are still unclear. Here we have investigated Mg-doped Al0.5Ga0.5N before and after postgrowth anneali
IntroductionThis contribution presents recent research results on segmental andsuprasegmental cues to word-internal and sentence-level structure. InSwedish, prosody is tightly connected to morphological and syntacticstructure. For example, every word stem is pronounced with either a low or ahigh tone. The stem tone depends on what follows the stem. Thus, if asingular suffix is connected to the wor
In this thesis, acoustofluidics has been used to process blood samples as a sample preparation step prior to biomarker detection. This is often required as the large amount of blood cells otherwise can interfere with the detection method. Acoustofluidics means moving particles or cells with acoustic forces within microfluidic channels. Ultrasound is used to create a standing wave between the chan
Över 30 år av forskning inom tungjonsfysik, Quantum ChromoDymanics (QCD) och kosmologi har etablerat vår nuvarande syn på universums tidigare stadie: kort efter Big Bang var universum fyllt av ett mycket hett och kompakt medium bestående av fria kvarkar och gluoner, den så kallade Kvarkgluon plasman (Quark--Gluon Plasma, QGP). Detta medium expanderade snabbt, och kyldes ner tills beståndsdelarnas This study reports on identified hadron production as a function of event multiplicity (dNch/dη) and transverse spherocity (SO) in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 and 13 TeV measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The particle spectra and their ratios measured in high-multiplicity events show signatures of an expanding medium. Integrated particle yields as a function of multiplicity measur
