Supersonic combustion is a critical area of research for advancing high-speed flight technologies, particularly for the development of scramjet engines for hypersonic vehicles. This study employs Finite Rate Chemistry (FRC) Large Eddy Simulation (LES) together with different experimental techniques to study the supersonic flow and thermochemical processes in the Small Scale Flight Experiment (SSFE

Aims/hypothesis: An intronic variant (rs10830963) in MTNR1B (encoding the melatonin receptor type 2 [MT2]) has been shown to strongly associate with impaired glucose regulation and elevated type 2 diabetes prevalence. However, MTNR1B missense variants have shown conflicting results on type 2 diabetes. Thus, we aimed to gain further insights into the impact of MTNR1B coding variants on type 2 diabe

It is common for a system integrator to make use of third party intellectual property (IP) blocks from multiple vendors in the design of a circuit. These IPs may include test features, known as instruments, which are connected to a reconfigurable scan network, such as an IEEE Std. 1687 (IJTAG) network, for efficient on-chip integration and communication.Using third party instruments this way becom

In a recent article in TiCS, Lind and Jon-And [1] argued that the sequence memory of animals constitutes a cognitive bottleneck, the ‘sequence bottleneck’, and that mental simulations require faithful representation of sequential information. They therefore concluded that animals cannot perform mental simulations, and that behavioral and neurobiological studies suggesting otherwise are best interp

Semiconductors use on-chip components, referred to as instruments, for test, debugging, firmware programming, configuration and other important functions. The instruments are needed to ensure proper device operation, however, they may be exploited by an adversary in an attack. With many different actors involved in semiconductor development and manufacturing, it becomes important to restrict acces

Billions of animals undertake migratory journeys every year, with powerful consequences for ecosystem dynamics. Key behaviours that enable successful migration are often guided by the visual system. The amount and quality of information that animals can extract from visual scenes are directly related to structural eye size—larger eyes can house larger pupils, enhancing light-gathering capacity and

Extraordinary finds from the Store Frigård cremation cemetery on the Danish island of Bornholm suggest that the society that used the site played a key role in supra-regional contacts and in the distribution of goods and people across the Baltic Sea between the Continent and Southern Scandinavia during the Iron Age.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate bony fusion with Low Dose CT (LDCT) over time following posterior scoliosis surgery in an all screw construct in patients with AIS with special focus on whether the spinal fusion process continue to develop beyond 2 years after scoliosis surgery and to evaluate if LDCT is an adequate radiological method to assess fusion maturation. Methods: Twenty fiv

IMPORTANCE Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) has been associated with a lower incidence of cancer and reduced weight gain. These associations suggest a potential role for the MedDiet in lowering the risk of obesity-related cancers (ORCs). Obesity is a known risk factor for various cancers and shows an inverse association with MedDiet adherence. OBJECTIVE To examine the association betw

We hypothesize that auditory and motor entrainment evolved in early hominin fetuses in direct response to their mothers’ bipedal footsteps and, later, contributed to the evolution of music and language via two related processes. First, selection for bipedalism transformed feet from grasping into weight-bearing organs, which negatively affected infants’ ability to cling to their mothers, provoking

Importance: Alzheimer disease (AD) predominates in females at almost twice the rate relative to males. Mounting evidence in adults without AD indicates that females exhibit higher tau deposition than age-matched males, particularly in the setting of elevated β-amyloid (Aβ), but the evidence for sex differences in tau accumulation rates is inconclusive. Objective: To examine whether female sex is a

Purpose: Exercise-induced hypohydration exacerbates biomarkers of renal injury, but studies isolating the effects of hypohydration without exercise have produced mixed findings. This study investigated the effects of 24-h severe fluid restriction on biomarkers of renal injury and glucose tolerance. Methods: Fifteen males (age: 27 ± 5 y; BMI: 24.1 ± 3.8 kg/m2) completed two randomised trials, invol

Abstract in French:Le système éducatif suédois met, depuis des décennies, l’accent sur l’importance de l’évaluation critique de l’information. Néanmoins, les approches d’évaluation de l’information mises en œuvre demeurent insuffisamment développées d’un point de vue analytique. Cet article porte sur deux défis essentiels auxquels sont confrontés les établissements scolaires pour préparer les jeunTeachers are now encouraged to use generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools to complete various school-related administrative tasks, with the promise of saving considerable amounts of time and effort. Drawing on interviews from 57 teachers across eight schools in Sweden and Australia, this paper explores teachers’ experiences when working with GenAI. In particular, it focuses on the large

This article critically explores how the AI image model Stable Diffusion generates visual histories of Scandinavia in the 1930s. While the past has always been mediated, this study suggests that generative AI models constitute a black-boxed yet easily accessible tool for the narration of history. We draw on recent works in digital memory studies and use an explorative hands-on methodology to subje

With global food supply chains becoming more complex, the credibility of the food sector is under threat due to the loss of public trust with rising food fraud cases such as the horsemeat scandal, Chinese milk scandal, etc. Therefore, it has become essential to promote transparency and real-time visibility of the food supply chain from farm to fork to address the demand of all the stakeholders inv
