A Generalized Methodology for Health Index Calculation for PMSM Drive System

This paper mainly discussed the motor and converters' health indexing. The health index gives the idea about the present condition or age compared to the healthy system. The objective of this paper is to present the health index (HI) calculation method for PMSM and converters to identify the real-time health of the device. There are many articles available for the transformer health index calculat

Anion exchange membranes based on poly(oxindole biphenylene) grafted with hydroxyl and quaternary ammonium groups for alkaline water electrolysis

Utilizing green hydrogen produced by water electrolysis offers a viable strategy to mitigate the global energy crisis. In the present work, a high-performance, readily synthesized, and cost-effective anion exchange membrane (AEM) for alkaline water electrolyzers has been developed and studied. Glycidyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (GTA) was grafted onto poly(oxindole biphenylene) (POB) through

The psychosocial impact of prostate cancer screening for BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers

Objectives: To report the long-term outcomes from a longitudinal psychosocial study that forms part of the ‘Identification of Men with a genetic predisposition to ProstAte Cancer: Targeted Screening in men at higher genetic risk and controls’ (IMPACT) study. The IMPACT study is a multi-national study of targeted prostate cancer (PrCa) screening in individuals with a known germline pathogenic varia

Haplotype analysis identifies functional elements in monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) based on common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have identified several loci associated with the risk of monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS), a precursor condition for multiple myeloma (MM). We hypothesized that analyzing haplotypes might be more useful than analyzing individual SNPs, as it could identify functional chromosomal units

Students’ concept development of limits

Students’ learning developments of limits were studied in a calculus course. Theiractions, such as problem solving and reasoning, were considered traces of theirmental representations of concepts and were used to describe the developmentsduring a semester. Several students went through the course with a vague conception of limits which in some cases was wrong. A higher awareness about their mental

Learning analysis: Students’ starting point

Most concepts taught in a basic analysis course at university are somewhatfamiliar to the students. They use their representations from prior experiences toform new knowledge about the concepts. Fifteen students’ were examined at thebeginning of a basic university course in analysis. Their pre-knowledge wassometimes vague and even wrong, often due to intuitive perceptions.

Conceptual change and connections in analysis

The paper presents a work in progress which is part of a larger study. Studentslearning analysis was investigated with the aim to find out how their concept images changed from the beginning of an analysis course to a year after the course. Their links between concepts were studied after the year had passed. The influence of the students’ pre-knowledge was durable and sometimes prevented students

Prospective teachers’ conceptions of analysis and beliefs about their impending profession

A group of pre-service teachers were studied from two social practices, as teachers and as students. Their perceptions of mathematics concepts and beliefs about the mathematics teacher role were studied through questionnaires, interviews and classroom observations. Three students were selected as cases in this paper where their links between the concepts limits, derivatives, integrals and continui

Physics teaching and the role of mathematics in Swedish upper-secondary school

The aim of this three-year study is to further contribute to the understanding of how relations between Reality – Theoretical models – Mathematics are communicated in Swedish upper-secondary physics. A developed analytical framework (Hansson, Hansson, Juter, & Redfors, 2015; 2019) is used to focus the analysis of the classroom communication on relations made (by teachers and students) between

Waiting list and post-transplant outcome in Sweden after national centralization of heart transplant surgery

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated an association between transplantation rate per center and postoperative mortality after heart transplantation. In 2011, Sweden centralized heart transplants and waiting lists, reducing the number of centers from 3 to 2. We aimed to assess the active waiting time and pre- and post-transplant mortality before and after centralization.METHODS: Heart tra

The impact of family-genetic risk scores on social functioning in individuals affected with six major psychiatric and substance use disorders in a Swedish National Sample

To examine whether the level of genetic risk in psychiatric disorders impacts the social functioning of affected individuals, we examine the relationship between genetic risk factors for major depression (MD), anxiety disorders (AD), bipolar disorder (BD), non-affective psychosis (NAP), alcohol use disorder (AUD), and drug use disorder (DUD) in disordered individuals and five adverse social outcom
