This thesis is based on four papers dealing with various aspects of interactions in binary stars. Interactions between stars occur at nearly all stages of their evolution and can take many forms. For example, stars may lose material to a binary companion, merge, interact with groups of other stars in star clusters and explode in binary systems, among other interactions.

The paper analyses dwell time delays for commuter trains in Stockholm andTokyo. In both cities, small dwell time delays of at most five minutes makeup around 90% of the total delays. Therefore, it is valuable to understandand deal with these disturbances. To this end, we use high resolution data ondwell times and passenger counts from both countries over the last severalyears. We find that these d

BackgroundWorldwide, an estimated 5 billion people lack access to safe, affordable surgical care when needed. This leads to millions of avertable deaths and unnecessary morbidity each year. To change this situation, urgent action is needed at many levels, but indicators and data have been lacking to guide improvement.AimsThe aim of this thesis was to describe and evaluate measurement of surgical p

Background: Respiratory viruses are the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) and hospitalisation in infants and young children. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the main infectious agent in this population. Palivizumab is administered intramuscularly every month during five months in the first RSV season to prevent serious RSV LRTI in children. Given its high cost, it is e

The advent of deep learning has yielded powerful tools to automatically compute gradients of computations. This is because training a neural network equates to iteratively updating its parameters using gradient descent to find the minimum of a loss function. Deep learning is then a subset of a broader paradigm; a workflow with free parameters that is end-to-end optimisable, provided one can keep t

A model is presented for studying the energy used by the braking system in heavy vehicles. The aim is to keep the model as simple as possible, while retaining reasonable fidelity for the problem at hand. All actuators are thus created as ideal, i.e. no losses, then simple dissipative loads are added where applicable in order to capture their effects from a vehicle systems perspective. The vehicle

Results from the radiological environmental monitoring of the European Spallation Source (ESS) are presented for 2021. Previous zero-point assessments (2017-2020) have mainly focussed on terrestrial samples. New sample types for 2021 include a sediment sample from a pond at the ESS and brown seaweed (Fucus) from Lomma bay and from the east coast of Scania (Skillinge). For gamma-emitting radionucli

Artificial intelligence is breaking new grounds each year and one of the most promising and extensively researched area of study in the field is the artificial neural networks. In this project, artificial neural networks are designed to help medical staff in estimating at an early stage what risk a patient has of developing serious postoperative complications after having undergone an oesophageal

Cities are important stakeholders in the EU’s quest to achieve climate neutrality (European Commission, 2020a). The EU has acknowledged the importance of cities through the EU Mission on ‘Climate Neutral and Smart Cities’, which aims to enable 100 European cities to become climate-neutral by 2030 (European Commission, 2021a). However, climate change has the potential to intersect with, exacerbate,

The Base of the Pyramid (BoP) refers to 4 - 4,5 billion people in the world, who are living on less than a few dollars per day. This majority of the world's population has a little resources and is usually considered as a group with no purchasing power and therefore is currently unserved and underserved by current products and services. However, more than any others, the low-income consumers a

Scientific representation, algorithmically generated visualizations, and evidence across epistemic cultures How do scientists use new kinds of imagery to show what they know, and to convince diverse others to accept the evidence they offer? Images like brain scans and botanical illustrations are central to scientific practice. But today, accessible technologies can create lifelike algorithmically
