Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to augment heat transfer rates of traditional rib-elements with minimal pressure drop penalties. Design/methodology/approach - The novel geometries in the present research are conventional cylindrical ribs with rounded transitions to the adjacent flat surfaces and with modifications at their bases. All turbulent fluid flow and heat transfer results are presen

Many ships today rely on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), for their navigation, where GPS (Global Positioning System) is the most well-known. Unfortunately, the GNSS systems make the ships dependent on external systems, which can be malfunctioning, be jammed or be spoofed. There are today some proposed techniques where, e.g., bottom depth measurements are compared with known maps using

Background: A dysfunctional use of coping strategies has repeatedly been linked to suicidal behaviour in non-psychiatric populations. However, data regarding association between coping strategies and suicidal behaviour in psychiatric populations are limited. Aims: The aim of the study was to investigate the possible relationship between self-reported suicide risk, suicidal ideation and coping stra

The recent several years we developed the Scheimpflug lidar method. We combined an invention from the 19th century with modern optoelectronics such as diode lasers and CMOS array from the 21st century. The approach exceeds expectations of background suppression, sensitivity and resolution beyond known from time-of-flight lidars. We accomplished multiband elastic atmospheric lidars for resolving si

AbstractBackgroundThe increasing prevalence of obesity has led to a rise in bariatric surgery as an effective intervention for weight loss and associated co-morbidities. However, concerns persist regarding increased alcohol consumption after surgery.ObjectivesTo objectively assess long-term changes in alcohol use after bariatric surgery, we used the highly specific alcohol biomarker phosphatidylet

This study delves into the landscape of health applications within online markets. These applications, offering health-related functionalities, have become integral to the lives of European citizens. The transformation of healthcare delivery, accelerated by the pace of modern life and accentuated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has elevated health applications from conveniences to essential tools capabl

Background: Cortical contusions are common in moderate-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Cortical contusions often expand, potentially causing neuro-worsening several hours to days post-trauma. While contusion expansion (CE) may affect outcome, potential clinical and radiological markers that can predict CE have been insufficiently explored. In the present single-center retrospective observatio

Artiklarna i detta nummer bearbetar frågor om levbarhet, motstånd och hopp på olika sätt, utifrån olika disciplinära kontexter och med en bredd av material. Frågan som ställs handlar om vilka som anses ha liv värda att skydda, och vad som gör livet levbart för de som positioneras utanför det begripliga och därmed skyddsvärda och sörjbara. Vi förhåller oss här till Butlers analys och förslag att täThe articles in this issue address issues of livability, resistance and hope in different ways, from different disciplinary contexts and with a wide range of materials. The question posed is who is considered to have lives worth protecting, and what makes life liveable for those who are positioned outside the intelligible and thus worthy of protection and care. Here we relate to Butler's analysis

Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based biomarkers, which capture physiological and functional tumor processes, were evaluated as imaging surrogates of early tumor response following chemoradiotherapy in glioma patients. A multiparametric extension of a voxel-based analysis, referred as the parametric response map (PRM), was applied to quantitative MRI maps to test the predictive poten

Meristem Wall is a prototype for a 3D-printed building envelope, featuring a dynamically controllable network of integrated air channels that allow a fluid and adaptive relationship between inside and outside. The wall integrates functional lighting and electricity, windows, and a custom CNC-knitted textile interior. It is fabricated through binder-jet sand 3D printing and points towards a climati

We show acoustic separation of 7.8 µm from 5 µm fluorescent polystyrene particles at an unprecedented sample flowrate of almost 1000 µL/min.

Legal persons have traditionally been understood as entities with legal rights and/or duties. This traditional concept of legal personhood has been challenged during the last decades: In legal practice through the global development in law where previous legal non-persons such as different non-human natural entities, non-human animals, fetuses and artificial intelligences have been ascribed, or be

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) provides real-time information about structural damage and its evolution over time, which supports decision-makers in managing structural integrity. However, traditional SHM systems, such as vibration-based systems with accelerometers, require laborious installation and maintenance of instrumentation, including sensors, cables, and acquisition systems directly in

Attention Restoration Theory point to nature as a particularly good candidate for restoring the ability to focus and inhibit distractions. However, little effort has been directed to elaborating on what makes nature's visual pattern unique for restoration purposes. One suggested explanation is the fractal properties of natural patterns (Hagerhall, 2005). Both perception studies (Hagerhall et al.,
