Modern gearing applications, in particular electrification, impose new challenges in many different fields of engineering and research. In specific, new demands are imposed on gears, including higher rotational speed, lower noise acceptance, and increased efficiency, as well as increased resistance against pitting and scuffing. To meet these demands, a better understanding of gear contacts is need

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are promising to improve energy efficiency and coverage for 6G [1]. In this paper, we aim to optimize the deployment of BSs and RISs for enhanced coverage in terms of received power. Specifically, an active RIS structure [2] with tuneable power amplification is applied, and a framework of mixed integer linear programming (MILP) is proposed for the optimiz

Current precision cancer medicine is dependent on the analyses of a plethora of clinically relevant genomic aberrations. During the last decade, next-generation sequencing (NGS) has gradually replaced most other methods for precision cancer diagnostics, spanning from targeted tumor-informed assays and gene panel sequencing to global whole-genome and whole-transcriptome sequencing analyses. The shi

Scholarly and practitioner interest in the topic of authentic leadership has grown dramatically over the past two decades. Running parallel to this interest, however, have been a number of concerns regarding the conceptual and methodological underpinnings for research on the construct. In this exchange of letters, the cases for and against the current authentic leadership theory are made. Through

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of population screening on low vision and blindness from open-angle glaucoma.DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study.STUDY POPULATION: A very large population based screening for glaucoma was conducted in Malmö, Sweden, from 1992 to 1997. A total of 42 497 subjects were invited, of which 32 918 were screened and 9579 non-responders, i.e. did not participate.METHODS: The

The optimal spectral efficiency and number of independent channels for MIMO antennas in isotropic multipath channels are investigated when bandwidth requirements are placed on the antenna. By posing the problem as a convex optimization problem restricted by the port Q-factor a semi-analytical expression is formed for its solution. The antennas are simulated by method of moments and the solution is

The Advanced Normalizations Tools ecosystem, known as ANTsX, consists of multiple open-source software libraries which house top-performing algorithms used worldwide by scientific and research communities for processing and analyzing biological and medical imaging data. The base software library, ANTs, is built upon, and contributes to, the NIH-sponsored Insight Toolkit. Founded in 2008 with the h

The aim of this knowledge compilation is to contribute with know-ledge about the work environment in relation to the ever-older workforce. How do employee needs and possibilities change from a course of life perspective? What should the employer and other work environment actors think about in order for the workforce to be able to and want to work to a high age? The Swedish Work Environment Author

In this Letter, we present a new expression for the overlaps of wave functions in Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov based theories. Starting from the Pfaffian formula by Bertsch et al. [1], an exact and computationally stable formula for overlaps is derived. We illustrate the convenience of this new formulation with a numerical application in the context of the particle-number projection method. This new fo

Carefully selecting the right collection datastructure can significantly improve the performance of a Java program. Unfortunately, the performance impact of a certain collection selection can be hard to estimate.To assist developers there are tools that recommend collections to use based on static and/or dynamic information about a program. The majority of existing collection selection tools for J

We compare the Hilbert series approach with explicit constructions of higher-order Lagrangians for the O(N) nonlinear sigma model. We use the Hilbert series to find the number and type of operators up to mass dimension 16, for spacetime dimension D up to 12 and N up to 12, and further classify the operators into spacetime parity and parity of the internal symmetry group O(N). The explicit construc

This report gives an overview and summary of research on wood-adhesive bonds performed during several years in a number of separate studies. These studies concern the mechanical testing, numerical analysis and constitutive modelling of wood-adhesive bonds in timber engineering. Applications such as finger-joints and glued-laminated timber are considered. The experimental studies include the testin

The insertion of rigid aliphatic or aromatic building blocks in polymer structures is an efficient synthetic strategy towards high-Tg polymer materials. In the present work, we have functionalized isosorbide 5-methacrylate with various aromatic lignin-inspired esters to yield a series of isosorbide-2-aryl carboxylate-5-methacrylate monomers (ArIMAs) as single regioisomers. The selection of phenyl
