Grain boundary interaction with second-phase particles having different degrees of coherency is investigated using the phase field crystal (PFC) method. Both the enveloping and pass-through mechanisms are studied with regards to grain boundary pressure, passage time and interface evolution. It is found that coherent particles exert a stronger retardation effect on grain boundaries compared to incoGrain boundary interaction with second-phase particles having different degrees of coherency is investigated using the phase field crystal (PFC) method.

6G systems, such as Large Intelligent Surfaces, will require distributed, complex, and coordinated decisions throughout a very heterogeneous and cell free infrastructure. This will require a fundamentally redesigned software infrastructure accompanied by massively distributed and heterogeneous computing resources, vastly different from current wireless networks.To address these challenges, in this6G systems, such as Large Intelligent Surfaces, will require distributed, complex, and coordinated decisions throughout a very heterogeneous and cell free infrastructure.

The cavity receptor organ (previously X-organ or organ of Bellonci) of Artemia salina consists of ciliated neurons whose cilia protrude into a cavity beneath the cuticle. The neuronal dendrites penetrate a giant accompanying cell and epidermal cells before entering the cavity. The cavity beneath the cuticle, the ciliated neurons and the connexion with the medulla terminalis justifies a homologizatThe cavity receptor organ (previously X-organ or organ of Bellonci) of Artemia salina consists of ciliated neurons whose cilia protrude into a cavity beneath the cuticle.

The European Union plays a globally influential role in environmental legislation, with policies and regulation rooted in particular norms. Through a narrative on regulatory capitalism, ecological modernization, and diffusion, we trace how the promotion of renewable energy in transport through subsidies, mandatory targets, and prescriptive criteria for liquid biofuels mobilize social forces for it

Multi-dimensional harmonic retrieval (HR) in white noise is required in numerous applications such as channel estimation in wireless communications and imaging in multiple-input multiple-output radar. In this paper, we propose two R-dimensional (R -D) extensions of the subspace-based MUSIC model order selection scheme, for R≥2R≥2, to detect the number of multi-dimensional cisoids. The key idea in

This article compares Swedish social workers, teachers, and journalists’ experiences of workplace violence. It addresses similarities and differences between the three professional groups in terms of who exposed them to workplace violence, what it was about, and what triggered it. The article is based on an online survey study, and the findings suggest that consumerrelated violence from target groThis article compares Swedish social workers, teachers, and journalists’ experiences of workplace violence.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is perhaps the most important, emblematic and ubiquitous technology of contemporary society. ICT is used increasingly in new product areas and help resolve problems and challenges to mankind; it has even gotten to a point where life without ICT is hard to imagine. Over the last decades ICT has become a core technology within the music, literature an

The last 20 years have witnessed a marked increase in Swedish participation in major international UN-, EU- and/or NATO-led armed missions mandated according to Chapter VII of the UN Charter. This development reflects the new foreign and security priorities of Sweden in the wake of the end of the Cold War. Decisions on Swedish participation in such missions, however, cannot be taken without parlia

Biotechnological tools have never been stronger than today and the data they provide is absolutely fascinating. As we get a clearer picture of the intricate workings of living systems eective mathematical and statistical tools become a necessity in order to reach a comprehensive understanding of said systems. The purpose of this thesis is to statistically explore cutting edge biomedical data taken

Mantle plumes are subject of a great discussion within the field of Geology. Do they really exist, and in that case, from where do they originate? The scope of this Bachelor thesis is to discuss the characteristics of mantle plumes and the arguments in favor of and against their proposed existence. The mantle plume hypothesis was first presented in 1971 by Jason Morgan, suggesting diapirs of hot r

Förbudet mot köp av sexuella tjänster har varit i kraft i 16 år. Den debatt som åtföljt lagstiftningsarbetet kan dock sägas ha pågått under närmare 40 år. Det är en debatt med starka ideologiska förtecken och det är tydligt att prostitution är en fråga som inte lämnar någon oberörd. Uppsatsens syfte är utreda vilka ideologiska värderingar och skyddsintressen som återfinns i lagstiftarens syn på pThe Swedish prohibition of the purchase of a sexual service has been in effect for 16 years. The debate accompanying the legislation process has, however, been going on for almost 40 years. It is a debate with a strong ideological nature and it is clear that prostitution is a phenomenon that leaves no one unaffected. The aim of this essay is to investigate which ideological values have affected th

Enligt svensk rätt ska utländska äktenskap erkännas om de är giltiga enligt lagen i det land de ingåtts. Undantaget till detta är om äktenskapet går emot svensk ordre public. Huruvida så är fallet för polygami är fortfarande osäkert. Det här arbetet kommer inte beröra huruvida Sverige bör ha en begränsning på antal äktenskap eller inte, utan fokus ligger på den svenska hanteringen av utländska polAccording to Swedish law a foreign marriage is recognized if it is valid under the law of the state where it was entered into. The exception to this is if such a marriage is void as a matter of public policy. Whether or not that applies to polygamy is still uncertain. This thesis will not touch upon whether or not Sweden should have a restriction on the number of parties in a marriage; instead it

This study examines the relationship between global news narratives and market volatility, focusing on the VIX index as a measure of investor sentiment. By analyzing financial news headlines from 2023, the research investigates whether keyword frequencies related to terms like conflict, recession, and bullish can predict changes in VIX. The study employs multiple regression, time series analysis,
