Motivated by the pioneering activation-energy asymptotic analysis of strained laminar premixed flames in counterflow by Libby and his coworkers, a rate-ratio asymptotic analysis is carried out to elucidate the structure and predict the critical conditions of extinction of strained premixed methane flames. Steady, axisymmetric, laminar flow of two counterflowing streams: a reactive mixture stream a

Growing interest is awarded to the digitalization of the building permitting use case and many works are developed about the topic. However, the subject is very complex and many aspects are usually tackled separately, making it very hard for traditional literature reviews to grasp the actual progress in the overall topic. This paper unveils the detailed state of the art in Digital Building Permitt

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of a population-based screening trial using prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a kallikrein panel and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) aimed at minimizing overdiagnosis, while retaining mortality benefit. Patients and Methods: Feasibility of the screening algorithm was evaluated in terms of participation, screening test results and cancer detec

Inspired by work of Ladkani and Groth–Šťovíček, we explain how to construct generalisations of the classical reflection functors of Bernšteĭn, Gel′fand, and Ponomarev by means of the Grothendieck construction.

We show that the perfect derived categories of Iyama’s d-dimensional Auslander algebras of type A are equivalent to the partially wrapped Fukaya categories of the d-fold symmetric product of the 2-dimensional unit disk with finitely many stops on its boundary. Furthermore, we observe that Koszul duality provides an equivalence between the partially wrapped Fukaya categories associated to the d-fol

Increasing iron (Fe) concentrations are found in lakes on a wide geographical scale but exact causes are still debated. The observed trends might result from increased Fe loading from the terrestrial catchment, but also from changes in how Fe distributes between the water column and the sediments. To get a better understanding of the causes we investigated whether there has been any change in the

I princip alla kemiska processer och reaktioner som sker i miljön sker i närvaro av joner. I vatten sätter joner förutsättningarna för hur andra lösta partiklar samverkar. Joner är också direkt involverade i kemiska reaktioner som påverkar klimatet såsom ozonnedbrytning.I denna avhandling introduceras läsaren för de drivkrafter som styr molekylära system. Utifrån begreppen energi och entropi guidaEssentially all chemical processes and reactions occurring in the environment take place in the presence of ions. In water, ions set the conditions for how other dissolved particles interact. Ions are also directly involved in chemical reactions affecting the climate such as ozone depletion. In this thesis, the reader is introduced to the driving forces governing molecular systems. Starting from t

Objectives: Interstitial lung disease is frequent in SSc (SSc-ILD) and associates with significantly reduced quality of life. Here we aimed to analyse patient pathways, and experiences of patients and healthcare providers (HCPs) in order to identify unmet needs in the management of SSc-ILD patients. Methods: Semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted in eight European countries looked at HCP

Summary: Four mesosiderites were classified, and petrographic analyses were performed to look for indicators of shock. Of the four samples, Lamont and QUE 86900 were found to contain shock-related features, such as planar microstructures and quenched melts, respectively.

Artikeln behandlar ett återkommande språkligt mönster i idrottstränares instruktioner och återkoppling till tränande barn. Mönstret utgörs av ett tvåledat yttrande där ett instruerande led föregås av ett orienterande led med lägre informationsvärde och en delvis annan funktion. I artikeln beskrivs detta orienterande led som scene-setting, vilket syftar på att den orientering som föregår och förber

Background: Lignosulfonates are significant wood chemicals with a $700 million market, produced by sulfite pulping of wood. During the pulping process, spent sulfite liquor (SSL) is generated, which in addition to lignosulfonates contains hemicellulose-derived sugars—in case of hardwoods primarily the pentose sugar xylose. The pentoses are currently underutilized. If they could be converted into v

Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common atherosclerotic disease with severity ranging from asymptomatic to chronic limb threatening ischemia. The aim of the present cross-sectional study was to identify novel biomarkers associated with PAD. Patients and methods: Levels of 91 cardiovascular specific proteins in plasma samples were measured by the Proseek Multiplex CVD III96x96 pa

Background: Several studies indicate increasing hospitalisation rates for specific infectious diseases (IDs). Studies describing the entire ID spectrum are scarcer. Our aim was to describe hospital use with ID diagnoses in Swedish adults from 1998 to 2019. Methods: All four-position codes in ICD-10 were reclassified as ID or non-ID diagnoses. Using data from the National Patient Register, age-stan

A lab-made, multilayered Li-ion battery pouch cell is investigated using in-operando neutron powder diffraction (NPD) and spatially resolved powder X-ray diffraction (SR-PXRD) with the aim of investigating how to compare the information obtained from the two complementary techniques on a cell type with a complicated geometry for diffraction. The work focusses on the anode and cathode lithiation as

How do we explain change in political transnationalism over time? In what way does this change affect diasporic identities? And how does this change alter the relationship and power of diasporic actors towards their homeland states? This paper addresses these questions in relation to Iraqi Shi’a political transnationalism between London and Iraq pre and post-2003. I argue that the confluence of po

Hybridization is increasingly recognized as an important evolutionary force. Novel genetic methods now enable us to address how the genomes of parental species are combined in hybrid lineages. However, we still do not know the relative importance of admixed proportions, genome architecture and local selection in shaping hybrid genomes. Here, we take advantage of the genetically divergent island po
