Abstract in SpanishSe ha dicho a menudo que la Cronografía de Miguel Psellós, el prolífico autor del s. xi, es una obra historiográfica que semeja una novela y que Psellós gasta mucho tiempo en describir caracteres y en tomar actitudes irónicas respecto de sus protagonistas imperiales. Este artículo sostiene que una versión más refinada de esto puede ser vista en el libro sexto de Psellós a p
As part of the green transition, a current trend in the construction sector is to utilize more wood and lightweight composites, aiming at a reduction of the embodied energy in buildings. At the same time, with a focus on circularity and reuse, large-span structures are preferable, since they provide more flexibility for future uses of the building. The mix of large spans and lightweight structures
Flank wear VBmax remains one of the most essential and used metrics for measuring tool wear. VBmax is used to characterize tool wear rate, machinability of materials, the quality of machined surface. While VBmax measures the size of wear scar, the shape of the tool wear remains less used but not the least applicable for such characterization. However, quantification of the wear shape requires a mo
Climate change is an important driver of range shifts and community composition changes. Still, little is known about how the responses are influenced by the combination of land use, species interactions and species traits. We integrate climate and distributional data for 131 butterfly species in Sweden and Finland and show that cumulative species richness has increased with increasing temperature
Coarse-graining is commonly used to decrease the computational cost of simulations. However, coarse-grained models are also considered to have lower transferability, with lower accuracy for systems outside the original scope of parametrization. Here, we benchmark a bead-necklace model and a modified Martini 2 model, both coarse-grained models, for a set of intrinsically disordered proteins, with t
In this paper, we clarify, unpack, and ultimately resist what is perhaps the most prominent argument for the compatibility of free will and determinism: the epistemic argument for compatibilism. We focus on one such argument as articulated by David Lewis: (i) we know we are free, (ii) for all we know everything is predetermined, (iii) if we know we are free but for all we know everything is predet
Cyclic RGD peptides are well-known ligands of integrins. The integrins αVβ3 and α5β1 are involved in angiogenesis, and integrin αVβ3 is abundantly present on cancer cells, thus representing a therapeutic target. Hence, synthetic and biophysical studies continuously are being directed towards the understanding of ligand-integrin interaction. In this context, the development of versatile synthetic s
