The nature of the surfaces of particles of pharmaceutical ingredients, food powders, and polymers is a determining factor for their performance in for example tableting, powder handling, or mixing. Changes on the surface structure of the material will impact the flow properties, dissolution rate, and tabletability of the powder blend. For crystalline materials, surface amorphization is a phenomeno

This study investigated the influence of shell microstructure on oil migration and fat bloom development in chocolate model systems. The microstructure of the model shells was varied by means of tempering or seeding cocoa butter and the addition of non-fat particles. Further, the impact of different storage conditions was studied. By using a set of novel analytical techniques the migration rate co

The capacity to assemble, store, and make available information in databases is ever growing. This development has accelerated in recent decades, driven by the advent and increased use of digital networks. Already at an early stage, it led to demands for legal protection of databases. In most countries databases have been protected in national legislation based on copyright principles. However, th

This paper contains a description, an alignment and a joint approach for technology readiness development with a three phases support of decision value analyses. The three phases are separated into the decision value forecasting, decision value analysis and the technology value quantification supporting the technological concept formulation and experimental testing, the prototype development and t

Support structures of offshore wind turbines are subject to cyclic stresses generated by different time-variant random loadings such as wind, waves, and currents in combination with the excitation by the rotor. In the design phase, the cyclic demand on wind turbine support structure is calculated and forecasted with semi or fully probabilistic engineering models. In some cases, additional cyclic s

In this article, we propose an efficient method for solving analysis-l1-TV regularization problems with a multi-step alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) approach as the fast solver. Additionally, we apply it to a real-data magnetoen-cephalography (MEG) brain imaging problem as well as to signal reconstruction. In our approach, the inverse problem arising in MEG or signal reconstruct

Pollinators play a central role in shaping the astounding diversity of angiosperm flowers. Flowers are complex, multidimensional, genetically and functionally integrated phenotypes, rendering it a challenge to quantify and interpret observed trait variation. Even variation in simpler trait measurements is a challenge to interpret, because of the multitude of selective agents and evolutionary proce

Gläntans camp vid Fiskeboda i Sörmland välkomnar unga vuxna på autismspektrumet att koppla av, ha roligt och träffa nya vänner under skolledigheterna. För vissa är det första gången de är borta hemifrån, för andra är det en efterlängtat höjdpunkt på året. Oavsett om du kommer som deltagare eller som en del av personalgruppen. Under några veckor varje år är det ett hem bortom hemmet. Många minnen Gläntans camp at Fiskeboda in Sörmland welcomes young adults on the autism spectrum to relax, have fun, and meet new friends during school breaks. For some people it’s their first time away from home, for others, it’s a much anticipated highlight of the year. No matter if you come as a participant or as part of the staff. For a few weeks every year it’s home away from home. Lots of memories are m

The Bangladeshi Gen Zs and university students demonstrated a revolutionary example of civic engagement, participatory culture, subcultural identity formation, and reformation during the Student Quota Reform Movement in July, leading to the July massacre where thousands of protesting students were tortured and shot to death in public. The movement happened as an enraged response against the announ

Many problems in science and engineering involve estimating a dynamic signal from indirect measurements subject to noise, where points can either evolve in continuous time or in discrete time. These problems are often formalised as inference in probabilistic state-space models, which are also frequently assumed to be Markovian. For inferring the value of the signal at a particular point in time, m

This book is a history of Swedish theatre.

This chapter concerns routing optimization in optical burst switching (OBS) networks. OBS is a photonic network technology aiming at efficient transport of IP traffic. OBS architectures are in general bufferless and therefore sensitive to burst congestion. An overall burst loss probability (BLP) which adequately represents the congestion state of the entire network is the primary metric of interes

This paper provides design experience based on 2D FE electromagnetic and heat transfer analysis that are used to support product development. An induction in-roll heater is analyzed, tested and verified. The scientific challenge is to develop fast and fair models to provide design guidelines for layout specification, material selection and performance estimation. The transferred energy capability

The concise, critical reviews in this volume cover recent advances in the field of xenobiotics in any segment of the environment. They also address areas of accomplishment and need and discuss toxicological implications
