We present extensive density-functional theory (DFT) based calculations of the clean Rh(111) surface and of CO/Rh(111) overlayer systems. We study both ground-state structural properties and core-level shifts from differences in total energies at different coverages and adsorption sites. Most results are obtained using using norm-conserving or ultrasoft pseudopotentials. The overall reliability of

Binära föreningar beståendes av sällsynta jordartsmetallerna och rutenium uppvisar intressanta egenskaper såsom superledande förmåga och intressanta magnetiska egenskaper. För att förstå varför vissa föreningar uppvisar sådana egenskaper är det essentiellt att studera föreningarnas kristallstruktur. I denna rapport undersöks föreningar, i 35-38 at. % Ru regionen, beståendes av praseodym, neodymiumBinary alloys comprising of the rare earth metals along with ruthenium, RE-Ru, have been noted to display superconductivity at low temperatures. Furthermore the alloys display interesting magnetic properties such as anomalies in magnetization measurements below the magnetic ordering temperature. In order to understand how some compounds obtain these intrinsic properties it is vital to investigate

Abstract Increasing the share of renewable energy for covering our energy demand is central to the energy policy of the European Union. Despite the acknowledged importance, renewable energy has not yet reached the favoured wide-spread utilisation throughout Europe. Wood pellets, cylindrical sticks of 10 to 30 mm length mainly made from wood processing residues, are a renewable, cost-competitive, l

This engineering design guideline is intended for wood in outdoor above ground applications, i.e. use class 3 according to EN 335. It is based on a prescribed limit state for onset of decay during a reference service life of 30 years. Onset of decay is defined as a state of fungal attack according to rating 1 in EN 252. The approach is to determine the climate exposure as a function of geographica

Background: Being an informal carer of a person with dementia (PwD) can have a negative effect on the carer’s health and quality of life, and spouse carers have been found to be especially vulnerable. Yet relatively little is known about the care provided and support received by spouse carers. This study compares spouse carers to other informal carers of PwDs regarding their care provision, the su

Background: Cure proportion represents the proportion of patients who experience the same mortality rate as the general population and can be estimated together with the survival of the proportion experiencing excess mortality (the uncured). The aim was to estimate the cure proportions and survival among uncured stage II–III cutaneous melanoma (CM) patients. Methods: 1‐ and 5‐year relative surviva

Thesis purpose: The aim of this study is to identify enablers and constraints for consumers to adopt food waste reduction apps. Consequently, it contributes to the field of innovation diffusion and, importantly, consumer adoption of technological innovations. Methodology: This exploratory study uses qualitative methods to investigate consumer values, expectations and experiences as the main unit

INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of sub-Saharan African countries are implementing national health insurance schemes (NHISs) to support the aspiration of universal health coverage (UHC). A growing body of literature recognises the private sector role in improving NHIS equity in service access, public provider complementarity and overall member satisfaction. Zambia has implemented the NHIS since

Background: The beauty industry has transitioned away from traditional marketing and toward interactive, social media-driven techniques, with firms engaging customers with influencers and user-generated content on platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. While most studies focus on advertisements and influencers, little is known about how average users, particularly young women, interact with beaut

The sun is the most important energy source for the Earth’s climate system, however, influences of solar variations on climate are not fully understood. Studying past solar activity can improve our understanding of what role the sun plays in Earth’s climate. Cosmogenic radionuclides, such as 10Be in ice cores, are powerful tools to reconstruct past solar activity before the period of direct telesc

The non-enzymatic browning known as the Maillard reaction has been the subject of extensive investigation for decades. Studies have focused on areas such as changes in flavour, colour, texture, and the nutritional properties of food materials as a result of this reaction. However, this complex reaction between the amino acids in proteins and reducing sugars in carbohydrates, is still not fully und

Working Mexican mothers have been experiencing drastic changes in their way of life due to the forced adaptation of their office work into a ‘Home office’ mode. The reason of this sudden change was brought by the Covid-19 pandemic which prompted governments and companies to enforce lockdowns and social distancing as measures to prevent the contagion. This pushed working women to juggle work and ho

Currently well established technology-based manufacturing companies with a service business provides their markets with innovative and reliable products. Despite this, these companies often find their service delivery process to be inefficient, due to its time-based nature. Furthermore, the markets on which they operate are currently experiencing a shortage of qualified service personnel and thus

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att vidga min förståelse för färg som skapande verktyg av arkitektur i rumslighet. Studien fokuserar på olika rumsliga fenomen som kan uppkomma beroende på hur färg samspelar med objekt, ytor och rumslighet. Parallellt med detta identifieras olika verktyg och praktiseras sedan i syfte att hitta sätt för färg att vara med i den tidiga designprocessen. För att samlaThe purpose of this thesis is to broaden my understanding of color as a creative tool of architecture in spatiality. The study will focus on different spatial phenomenons that can arise depending on how color interacts with objects, surfaces and spatiality. Parallel to this, different tools will be identified and then practiced in order to find ways for color to be included in the early design pro

As decarbonization pressures increase for energy-intensive processing industries, understanding demand side readiness is essential in order to scale up breakthrough technologies. This thesis investigates the willingness to pay (WTP) for green steel in the North American automotive industry, with a focus on steel produced by the H2-DRI-EAF route, where hydrogen is produced from renewable electricit

Much research has been published which attests to desire felt by educators to improve the quality of student reflection, and engagement with learning, through processes of assessment. This paper describes how research in Systems Analysis is being transformed and applied to educational practice. Staff considered that methods were needed to stimulate students to reflect and engage in higher orders o
