This a
In their paper, Vanden-Broeck, Miloh and Spivack (Wave Motion 27, 1998) describe two limiting behaviours of irrotational, axisymmetric capillary water waves using numerical methods. They found a two-parameter family of nontrivial solutions. Some solutions of small amplitude approach a uniform stream, while others approach a static configuration. Our main interest is with the branch of static confi
Background & Purpose: Radiation therapy is an essential treatment for cancer patients with the ultimate goal to deliver radiation doses to the tumour with precision while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Treatment verification is crucial to ensure the accuracy of radiation delivery, for instance by measuring the radiation dose distribution. Among various dosimetry techniques
Ukraine is a country with huge wind energy potential. And yet it remains heavily dependent on imported fuel from Russia. Despite the existing potential the development of the wind energy sector in Ukraine faces many obstacles. Lack of transparency in the market and lack of the effect regulations both have negative impact for the development of wind energy sector. Political instability and continuo

We conducted seven semi-structured interviews with social workers at different LARO-clinics in Skåne. For our analysis, we have applied symbolic interaction, the dram
This thesis encompasses an introductory part and five papers related to developing techniques and phantoms required for the further growth of photoacoustic imaging (PAI). In PAI, images are created by detecting acoustic waves followed by the absorption of laser light, enabling high spatial resolution while maintaining high optical contrast. Due to the distinct absorption patterns of various chromo
Objective: The aim of this study is to describe how the use of diagnostic imagingfor prostate cancer (PCa) has evolved over time and to determine whether thereare any differences in access to diagnostic imaging, type of cancers detected, andmortality based on the education level of patients.Methods: 11,063 men were recruited between 1991 and 1996 and thenprospectively followed until 2020. All new
Historical sources written in rare or undeciphered scripts represent an immense but underexploited part of the world’s cultural and linguistic heritage. Their study is often hindered by fragmentary preservation, non-standard symbol systems, and the absence of interoperable digital resources. While recent advances in imaging, transcription, and computational analysis have improved access to histori
Uppsatsen beskriver utmattningssyndrom och arbetsplatsåtergång såsom det upplevs av individen då tidigare forskning saknar ett individperspektiv. Studiens frågeställningar handlar om hur arbetsplatsåtergång upplevs samt vilka faktorer som fungerar bra respektive mindre bra och utifrån den informationen argumenteras för hur det är möjligt att utveckla arbetsplatsåtergången för alla inblandade.

Möjligheten att använda tidiga förhör som bevismaterial trädde i kraft år 2022 och innebär att förhörsutsagor givna under en förundersökning som spelats in med ljud och bild inför en brottsutredande myndighet får i vissa fall användas som bevismaterial under huvudförhandlingen. Förhörsutsagor är ett viktigt bevismaterial och det är således av stor vikt att deras innehåll är fullständigt och korrekThe ability to use preliminary investigation interviews as evidence was implemented in 2022, allowing statements given during a preliminary investigation, recorded with audio and video, to be used as evidence in the main trial under certain circumstances. Oral statements are an important piece of evidence, and it is therefore of vital importance that they are complete and accurate to ensure their
