BACKGROUND: Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) is often misdiagnosed or conflated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) due to overlapping clinical presentations and neuropathological features. The presence of AD-like features correlates with accelerated cognitive decline and a worse overall prognosis. Compared to AD, studies suggest that amyloid uptake in DLB may spare the occipital lobe. This project aims
Sensor degradation poses a significant challenge in autonomous driving. During heavy rainfall, interference from raindrops can adversely affect the quality of LiDAR point clouds, resulting in, for instance, inaccurate point measurements. This, in turn, can potentially lead to safety concerns if autonomous driving systems are not weather-aware, i.e., if they are unable to discern such changes. In t
Alternating shear rotations, also known as tacking, can effectively alter viscosity, the jamming point, and dissipation per strain for dense suspensions. For a given packing fraction, viscosity decreases with increasing cruising (tacking) angle, while dissipation shows a complex dependence on both packing fraction and cruising angle. Generally, the cruising angle required to reduce overall dissipa
This paper introduces the comprehensive web-based IWG5 tool to evaluate energy consumption, renovation costs, and environmental impacts for European residential and office building renovations. Developed to support the SET-Plan Implementation Working Group 5 on Energy Efficiency in Buildings, the tool establishes benchmarks across five European climate zones by integrating dynamic building perform
Cells grow by acquiring external resources and transforming them internally, forming new cells as they divide. Metabolic networks focus on the flow of such resources within the cell as they undergo series of biochemical reactions. How population growth emerges from these complex dynamical networks remains unclear. Modeling the emergence of population growth, a central ecological concept, is thus e
The field of biomedicine is constantly investing significant research efforts in order to gain a more in-depth understanding of the mechanisms that govern the function of body compartments and to develop creative solutions for the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues. The main overall goal is to develop relatively simple systems that are able to mimic naturally occurring constructs and can t
The semiconductor industry is pivotal to Europe's economy, especially within the industrial and automotive sectors. However, Europe faces a significant shortfall in chip design capabilities, marked by a severe skilled labor shortage and lagging contributions in the design value chain segment. This paper explores the role of European universities and academic initiatives in enhancing chip design ed
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can manipulate the electromagnetic (EM) waves in wireless channels and thus is promising for the sixth generation wireless communication systems. However, there exists little research on RIS channel measurements, which are important for the communication system design. In this paper, channel measurements are carried out in anechoic chamber, outdoor, and ind
The increasing global demand for food will be met chiefly by increased intensification of production. For crops, this will be achieved largely by increased yields per area with a smaller contribution from an increased number of crops grown in a seasonal cycle. Production systems show a spectrum of intensification practices characterised by varying methods of site preparation and pest control, and
LONG-TERM depletion of ozone has been observed since the early 1980s in the Antarctic polar vortex, and more recently at mid-latitudes in both hemispheres, with most of the ozone loss occurring in the lower stratosphere1. Insufficient measurements of ozone exist, however, to determine decadal trends in ozone concentration in the Arctic winter. Several studies of ozone concentrations in the Arctic
Endast i yttersta undantagsfall bör patienter i underhållsbehandling för opiatberoende kunna uteslutas. Det anser artikelförfattarna, som uppmanar Socialstyrelsen att ändra dagens regler.
Eye movements originally made during memory formation are often spontaneously reproduced during retrieval, even in the absence of visual input, directing gaze back to the locations where goal-relevant episodic information was previously encountered. This behavior, known as gaze reinstatement, is thought to support the reactivation of episodic content associated with those locations (e.g., Johansso
As part of its efforts to secure a ‘net-zero society’, the UK government will take a strategic decision on the role of hydrogen in decarbonising homes within the next years. While scholars have recently advanced the social science research agenda on hydrogen technology acceptance, studies are yet to engage with the prospective dynamics of adopting ‘hydrogen homes’. In response, this study examines
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avsaltning av havsvatten utgör en viktig källa för vattenförsörjning till befolkningen som bor vid Persiska viken, Medelhavet och Röda havet. De tre regionerna utgör ca 11,8 % av världens landyta och hade omkring 9 % av världens befolkning under 1950 och 2008, samt lika mycket enligt prognos för år 2050. Dessa områden är hemvist för 62 %, 58% och 60% av världens avsaltnIn this M.Sc. Thesis of a comparison for sewerage system of the three main municipalities of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (T R N C) has been studied and discussed. The study covers the future population calculations for three municipalities, Nicosia, Famagusta and Kyrenia, by means of Turkish and European standards. The comparisons for sewerage system of the three municipalities are compare
In this master thesis, I analyse a wide array of texts on children’s and youths reading and reading promotion in Sweden during 1980–2020, in order to assess how the concept of imagination is depicted and valued. The source material consists of official documents on reading promotion, such as commission reports, strategy plans, and surveys; a variety of texts dealing with children’s and youths read
Vehicle models are often bound by non-disclosure agreements with manufacturers.This thesis presents a vehicle model based on vehicle data gathered for the NationalAdvanced Driving Simulator in Ohio and therefore it is not bound by such limitationsand can be used in future research projects.The development and validation of the vehicle model requires understanding of thesubsystems studied, componen
This paper addresses the time-optimal path-tracking problem for redundant manipulators. By integrating path-velocity control into existing task-space robot controllers, the task-space motion can be dynamically scaled to satisfy the torque constraint under both kinematic and dynamic uncertainties. Numerical simulations and experiments demonstrate that trajectory feasibility and path-tracking accura
